and sentiment in the metarl market was
better today, and at the close sDelter

demand and small offerings, the latter
due TO firm cables and more cheerful
news from the west. Lead was quiet

tone. Copper and iron were inactive, with
prices more or less nominal. At the close

New York City to the Aid Of
the Money Market.

New York, Oct 4.-Today's stock mar
ket was dull but firmer than that OF yes
terday. Many railroads show net gains of
nearly a point and a few exceed that fig
ure. A number of the active industrials
gained 2 to points today and Pullman
closed points higher on the day. There
was an appreciable relaxation in the
stringency of call money and the specu-
lative contingent expressed hopes Of easier
conditions at an early period. This, com
blned with excellent traffic returns from
railroads and the generally prosperous
conditions of business, added TO the un-
willingness of holders to part with securi-
! ties Offerings were on a very light scale
in spite Of the continued high rate for
money. Borrowers satisfied their needs
early in the day and the rate fell to
per cent towards the close of the mar
ket This invited a rather active buying
| movement in the late dealings and in

nuE SESSION ENDS.

The legislative session which closed
to-day has been satisfactory in every
respect other than the failure " the
members to agree upon the election of
a United States senator. Many good
bills have been passed, and mcst Of the
bad ones turKed down, so that there is
practically soothing to regret In the
matter OF legislation. The deplorable
thing is that a seat in the United
States Senate. admirably filled by Hon,
George Gray for so many years, is rem
dered vacant, and Delaware is deprived
OF one OF her Representatives in the
higher branch Of the National Legisla-
ture.
Three bills were passed at the ses-
sion just closed which are in them
selves ample compensation FOR tho cos
OF the session. One is the general cor
poratson act, another the revenue bill
accompanying it, and the third thu
Pyle water bill. The two first name,
vitally effect the state at large, while
the last one is Of benefit to thousandi
on water consumers in the city Of VIII
mington.
