New York, Sept $50 far as tbs
stock market can be relied on as
mirror of the general condition. the
country remains plunged IN profound
doubt and uncertainty. The few move
ments of prices are little more than
rippies on the surface of a stanant pool.
Members of the stock exchange are quite
nonplussed. Both that class who oper-
ate on their own account, known as
room traders, and the commission house
brokers, are equally puzzled over the
immobihty of the market The few
stocks in which any appreciate move
ment occurred today were dealt in TO so
small an extent as 70 destarct from the
significance Of the changes. The Coal

awanna losing "a points. while Reading

were down al one time 10 about point
but party recovered. The declara n
of a strike in the Pennsylvania anthra-
cite region had a depressing effect on
the general market as the contest inau-
gurated is felt to be fraught with vast
possibilities OF harm. Some depression
was reflected from foreign exchanges,
London showing uneasiness over the
likelihood of railroad strike. The
leading incident of the day in the fnan-
ciai world was the easing Of the private
discount rate IN London in response to
the large additional recuperation shown

exchange rate fell sharply in New York.
