Great Northern preferred rose easily an
extreme s points. But this rally, while
it affected the market generally and
drove the bears to cover, did not hold,
long stock coming out on the advance.
When the bears perceived this they
made a fresh attack and drove prices
down again, though the level of the
market did not fall generally to the
early low point. The closing was act
i've and easy. Amongst the points of
special strength should be mentioned
General Electric, Metropolitan, Ameri-
can Ice, Steel & Wire, Colorado Fuel
and American Smelling and for a time
Sugar and Brooklyn Transit. The an
nouncement of failure of board

sentiment until it was learned to be Of
no Importance. There was no actual
news development to account for the
downward course Of prices The inbred
custom of professional operators to
take the bear side of the market
against a public bull position asserted
itself, and there was much solid opin-
ion to be heard that the rise in prices
had overrun itself and that reaction
was due. The money market was closa-

grain and cotton bills has been much

THE STOCK MARKET.


New York, Nov 19-The selling
pressure proved more than the market
could absorb again to-day and prices
are very generally lower as a result.
There are a few exceptions both in the
railroad and industrial departments
But the strength in these few stocks
was not free from an appearance of
manipulation by the bulls for the pur-
pose of sustaining the market and en-
couraging renewed buying for the adj
vance. The downward course of prices
promptly set in after the market had
opened generally higher. Easier
money in London and the extent of
the advance for Americans prompted
some speculative ventures in that mar
ket, and there were stories cabled from
abroad of great trunk line consolida-
tons, similar to those which have been
rife in Wall street for some time past
The lower prices here in New York at
tracted buying by the arbitrage broL-
ers, which served as a sustaining in
fuence. But with the continued evil
dence of depression London turned
seller and liquidated heavily, the sales
on balance being estimated at upwards
of 10000 shares. Selling from domestic
sources was also very large. The rail
road as rule were most affected and
many standard stocks were forced q

Alonzo's rubber coat resounded with
the beating of the heavy rain.
