THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York Sept. 15.-There was pres
sure to sell Brooklyn Transit and st.
Paul from the outset today. Brooklyn
Transit occupied the center of the stage
all day. The dealings in this stock
were on an enormous scale and the
amount thrown overheard on the de-
cline made the fact OF inside liquda-
ton obvious. The bears, of course.
were also very active in this stock and
the occasional covering by this element
afforded the only effective checks to the
downward plunges of the stock. There
seemed to be no support accorded at
all until 1t had touched 80. From that
stage there were occasional checks and
rallies before 1t touched the extreme
low point at S65s. After a final rally to
SS, it closed again under pressure at n
net loss of 6%. The other members of
the Flower group did not develop any
keen sympathy until late in the day.
when Peoples Gas, Federal Steel and
Rock Island were down from 1A to
| points. These stocks rallied somewhat
before the close. Holders of St Paul,
| disappointed over yesterdays dividend
action broke the price a point at the
| opening. There was a subsequent re-
| covery of practically all the loss and
the whole railroad list moved up nearly
| to last nights level in a manner to
suggest the Inauguration of an infiuen-
| tal buying movement The appear
ance of strength was increased by a
| brisk demand for the Coalers, which
rose from 1 to 3la. The upward move
ment came to an abrupt end before
noon when Brooklyn Transit Sugar
Peoples Gas and the Western railroad
shares generally. led by st. Paul, fel
away by rapid stages. st. Paul dropped
to 129h and ruled below 13O for the RES
of the day. Except in a few isolated
cases there was no subsequent demon
stration of strength. The closing was
feverish and irregular at net losses
throughout, extending to over poin
in the Changers and some other rail
roads. Total sales, 70S,500.
The bond market moved in sympath.
with stocks. but changes as a rul
were not large. Total sales par value
