AmaIgamated Copper Almost
Breaks Stock Exchange Rec
ords For ErratiC Character Of
Its Fluctuations
DIRECTORS VOTE FOR
ONE PER CENT DIVIDEND
Undertone Of the Genera! Market
Was Firm But Sharp Declines
Were Noticeable When the Cut
in Copper Was Announced and
Its Wild Movements Noted

copper claimed and held interest over
all the list in the street today and went
through a rapid series of bewildering
fluctuations After the erratic market
had closed the directors of Amalga-
mated met voted a dividend of 1 per
cent, and issued a statement placing
the declines upon shrinkage in for
eign consumption. In this contraction
it was stated Amalgamated had been
forced to bear the largest loss in the
effort TO maintain prices. The state
ment placed the falling off in exports
al $1,000 tons, and said that during the
last month the United Metals Selling
Company had sold over 100, 900, 900
pounds for future delivery.
Large blocks of the stock were I'M
loaded Immediately business began on
the exchange and about half an hour
after the opening the gain of three
points made yesterday was wiped out.
Transactions then became very mOder-
ate. Efforts of shorts to cover as
sisted by what appeared to be adroit
manipulation ran it up to 6612 on a
parity with yesterdays close. The
stock backed and filled over a range of
. 2 point until we'll into the afternoon.
Trading became excited in the last
half hour of business and blocks of
from 1000 to 1000 shares changed hands
frequently on a rapid rise to 691a. An
equally rapid reaction followed to SAY,
changes Of a point being made between
sales, but the buying soon oVerCame
the declining tendency and the price
bounded up again TO 611a. There was
another slump just before the close
and the last sale was at 657s. The
general movement of the stock
throughout the day was of an excep-
tionaI character and its dominance Of
the trading was represented in trans
actions Of 222 500 out Of a total for all
stocks of 476;000 shares
The meeting of the directorate at
which the reduced dividend was de-
clared and the statement in behalf OF
the company made public commenced
as the market was closing and was at
tended by William Rockefeller, H. II
Rogers, James Stillman, Arson R
Flower and William G. Rockefeller. Nc
announcement was made for an hour
and when a clerk appeared at the office
door with an armful of typewriter
statements he was instantly the centre
Of a sensational rush. Half of the
statements were torn as the clerk at
tempted to distribute them i'm the
crowd Of messengers, financial bureau
men and reporters. Announcement was
made that the dividend was 1 per cent
compared with IL declared in Septem-
Der The statement given out was as

Tremendous Speculative Activity
and a Strong Bull Market.

NEW YORK, April 26-Bra 1street's
financial review will say tomorrow:
Strength, activity and Irregular ty, all
on an exaggerated scale, have rendered
this week one of the most interesting
from a speculative standpoint, which tie
bull market has yet exhibited. New and
fairly surprising price records have been
made in number of re preventative rail-
road stocks These movements have
been marked by enormous transact ons,
the aggregated recorded dea 'ings at the
stock exchange on last Tuesday rising 10
nearly 100000 shares which surpasses
all previous records in that respect. At
the same time the realizing sales AID &C
companying liquidation have been On
very extensive scale. with sharp drops n
some stocks which have reeently had
large rises. Thursdays market in par
ticular developed for a time heavy SELL
ing of this kind and displayed at times
al least symptoms of decided weakness.
These circumstances have created in
many minds an impression that cuI-
nina ton of the whole bull movement
is at hand and there is a sens tive under
tone, mingled with the confidence with
which are expressed opinions of contft>u-
ed strength. The fact, however, that one
of the most important of pending deals,
the acquisition of the Burlington by the
Northern Pacifc-Great Northern COM
bination has teen duly announced. and
the positive assertions a made concern
ing the reality of the developments "a
legged to be in preparation in regard to
the Union Pacific have tended to revive
public interest There has accordingly
been very good outside buying at con-
cessions in prices and the upward move
ments in various stocks have attracted
abundance Of public following.
