The stock market to-day was less
under the influence Of the strength of
individual stocks and more under that
of the coming exigencies of the money
market. Even the sensational and
buoyant rise in the Erie stocks in the
last half hour hardly served to more
than check the liquidation which was
in active force in the general market.
Twenty eight years is given as the
elapsed period since an Erie stock
sold as high as so on the stock eX
change. To-day the first preferred
sold at 525s in the late dealings. Ex-
pany's stock were for the common
31s, for the first preferred 42s and for
the second preferred 53s. The author
itative announcement that a contract
Of sale had been signed between the
Pennsylvania Coal Company and the
syndicate headed by the central power
in the anthracite trade was the cause
OF the buoyancy. The bid for Penn
sylvania coal was rapidly advanced
without bringing out any stock except
in occasional orders to the wide inter
walls until full lot OF 100000 shares
was sold at 735 and another at TAO.
Last night the stock was 61O bid and
CTS asked. The market for this stock
has been purely nominal and it sold
at 4501s last month, which was the
highest price of the year.
Notwithstanding the notable effect
Of this operation on the Erie stocks,
and efforts made by spectators to
emphasize the general benefit to result
to the anthracite industry as a whole,
the effect was very small, even on
the other anthracite stocks, which
were none of them more than steady.
Some firmness was manifest in the
southwestern railways on buying
seemingly in the interest Of the bull
pool. The effect was most noticeable
In the Wabash securities. Otherwise
selling was general throughout the list
and those stocks which have persisted
in their upward movement this week
We're as rule the weakest. This was
noticeably true of the steel group, in
which the range ran up to points or
over. Sugar and the New York public
utilities fell from about points tos3A
In Consolidated Gas. A number of
other prominent stocks, both in the
railroad and industrial list. fell from
l to III. The large absorption of spe-
cial stocks earlier in the week by pow
erful financial interests with independ-
ent resources has encouraged the hope
among. speculative operators that some
relief was to be forthcoming from
the threatened stringency in the money
