FINANCE AND TRADE
Stocks Were Irregular With dTendeuCy 10 Weakness.
The Bears Made Fierce Onslaught on Sugar and Ammered it Down Slightly but inc Product Was Elastic Enough 10 Regain.

New York, May 9.-The. trading in i today's stock market reflected q better
 organization on the part of the oper- ators for the dechne and several ste
 cessful raids were made on various
 parts of the list.
 Rumors of ali sorts were in circula-
 ton, but the one significant fact which was developed was a willingness to resort to rather desperate measures in order to force out stock. The death of we'll known capitalist was an- nounced by this clique Of traders and an attack made on The shares in Which he is popularly supposed to be most interested.
 For some reason American sugar was attacked vigorously, and for time little resistance was made to the downward course. The selling was suddenly arrested during the noon hour with the price about 154, and sharp recovery of per cent followed. The want of truth in these rumors was easily discovered, but in some instances sales were made before in- formation was sought.
 A second riimor, which was paradetl for a time with good results, was disagreement between two of the largest houses recently identified with the upward movement As result CT the split banks were said to be ealing and refusing loans to the weaker houses and forced sales were to be ex~ pected in consequence. Such state ments were denied in due time md a recovery followed a once.
 The entire days trading refiectei the need of new public interest and something more positive than q will lingness to buy on a scale down. The buying of the last few days has been of the better sort, but the purchasCs were made with 9 willingness to wait for results.
 Today's attack made the entire market look weak, but at no time did anything unfavorable to earnings ap- pear, and where concessions warc made the cause WIS directly at tributable to local speculative condi- | tions The bulk of the opinion was favorable to higher prices, but there i was a degree Of optimistic iner:ta 1 which actually contributed to the be- pression.
