Robbed by Masked Men.

LoRAIN. Ohio, Oct 2s--Three masked
men entered the Nickel Plate depot at
Vermillion at o'clock yesterday morning
and forced the agent, Henry Backstine, to
throw up his hands at the point of re-
volyers. He was bound and carried out
to a box car. The safe was then blown
open and rifed of its contents several
hundred dollars being secured. At 6
O'Clock a freight crew stopping for or
ders, heard Baekstine pounding the side

NEW YORK, Oct 26.-The Stock Market
this morning opened active and with a
somewhat feverish tone. The early trans
actions showed a number of unusually
wide and erratie fluctuations, but for the
most part the initial prices were made al
slight variations from yesterdays final fig
ures.
Southern Pacific was exceptionally ac-
tive at the opening and the stock rose. the
dealings being presumably influenced by
the publication of statement to the eff
feet that the control OF the company had
been acquired in the Vanderbilt interests.
Although there was little or nothing in
substantiation of this rumor, its publica-
ton appeared to lead to some buying of
the stock.
There was sharp decline in Reading
first preferred, which gave that stock a
conspicuous position IN the market, but
nothing that was definite could be in
stanced in connection with its tendency.
Another reactionary feature of the mar
ket was Sugar Refining, where the deals
were extremely heavy. but in this in
stance, too, there was nothing definite
which would explain the decline in the
stock.
The industrial quarter apart from Su-
gar was not especially active, ard irreg-
ular changes were noted there, as in the
general market
London furnished a slightly lower range
of prices for American stocks. and foreign
houses were sellers at the opening of bust
ness. The early dealings in the market
eeemed to follow the same technical lines
that have prevailed throughout the week.

The movements in the Stock Market this
morning were not particularly interesting
either 10 the bulls or the bears. Prices
during the first hour fuctuated only fTac-
tionally, III some cases upward and il some
IL the opposite direction. There was not
the snap of recent sessions which would
suggest that the leaders and the public are
still enthusiastically welded to a bull
movement, but on the other hand there
was little indication that the bears are
willing TO sell the market short as yet. The
level of prices IS from a point 10 three
points below the best in all the active
securities. Perhaps a majority Of careful
traders and brokers' this morning were of
the opinion that it will decline somewhat
further. y sharp decline is not looked for
at this time though it may come in cleo
tiCn week. There is much gossip regard
ing the bank statement Early in the week
il was thought that there would be an in
crease in cash and in surplus reserve
shown, but this now seems less certain.
The formal ending of the coal strike an
nounced in all the papers this morning
had no immediate effect on the anthracite
coal securities. Reading, first preferred,
sold around 80 during the early trading
and was not active.
Southern Pacific was one of the strong
est securities on the list again this morn
ing There is excellent buying in the
stock The banks have absorbed consid-
cradle quantities, and one of the stories
is that the Vanderbilts have bought a very
large block. No one believes that they

Brooklyn Rapid Transit was one of the
features of the market, though its early
movements were not important. The
story that the Metropolitan has secured
control Of the system, and that Messrs.
Whitney and Rockefeller are to be elected
to the directory, was widely commented
on. The Metropolitan people undoubtedly
nave been buyers. Brooklyn looks to be
