To-day's stock market was character
lied by considerable speculative actlv-
ity on the part OF the bear contingent,
The raid, however was restricted to
small number of stocks, all of them in
the list of what are called spelcaltles,
including the New York City specialties
and the older high-priced industrlnIs.
There was positive disqualification in
these active stocks, in contrast TO the
fairly firm uudertone of the general list
and especially the railroads The occa-
sion OF the attack on the lndustrtals
was OF course yesterdays utterances by
the president of the American Sugar
Refining Company. The friends of
other stocks in the Industrial list made
strenuous efforts to differentiate their
movement from that of sugar and
marked them up brisKiy Mt the opening
I'm face of the violent break in the
price Of the stock named, but the bears
met this manoeuvre with selling IN
such volume and with such confidence
that one after another of the special
ties crumbIed In price and fell through
a storm OF dlslodEed stop loss orders.
Even the railroad list was affected at
last and the earlier gnlns in that de-
partment were generally wiped out.
The only present railroad stock in
which the net declines reached point
were Baltimore & Ohio, Burlington
Missouri Pacific, Pennsylvania and
Delaware & Hudson. Lackawanna de.
clIned two points. The rally before the
close reduced all net declines In the
railroads to fractional limits and re-
stored fractional gains In some cases,

IN the loan crowd before the close. A
large prepondersnce Of the total deal

specIaltles At no level OF prices was
there any activity In railroad stocks.
The strength in foreign markets on the
reduction IN the oficlal discount rates
Of the bank Of England and the Bank
Of France was reflected to this market
and foreign arbitrage brokers were
good buyers until prices rose above par
ity. Commission houses continued
practically active and there was no
disposition to speculative In railroads.
The reaction in prices was sympathet-
ic. The London buying was in sum

the demand for bills was very light.
