BETTER STOCK MARKET
INDICATIONS OF BUYING OF A SUB
sTANTIAL CHARACTER.
Manipulation for a Rise Also Appar-
ent-Better Monetary Conditions
Are the Moving influence.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-There was some
further effort by professional bears during
the early hours of to-day's stock market
to renew the decline in prices which was
in force yesterday. but the evidence was
pretty conclusive that the urgent selling
to realize profits was completed and
the bears renewed the covering of shorts,
which was a feature Of the last hour of
yesterdays market The demand to cover
short contracts was a considerable factor
all day in the strength of the market, but
there were evidences here and there of a re-
newal Of the speculation for a rise, or of
buying of a substantial character for rea-
sons not disclosed. This was notably true
in the local traction group, Metropolitan
Street-railway rising 5A, Manhattan 2Ss
and Brooklyn Transit 1Ss. Buying of the
Reading stocks was on a large scale, and
caused sympathetic strength In some of
the other coalers. The copper stocks made
strong recoveries to the accompaniment of
reports of improving conditions in the
trade. Amalgamated Copper was lifted
over 2 points and Anaconda 1ss. There
also was an advance of 3A in American
Smelling and of pa in the preferred. The
Pacific coast stocks made notable recov-
cries from recent heavy declines, and there
were points of decided strength among the
SouthwesternS The more cheerful pros
pect in the money market was the domi-
nant influence in the recovery of stocks.
The fact that no gold was engaged for ex-
port to London tomorrow relieved an APP
prehension on that score, a further low
ering in the buying price Of gold from Lon
don this morning and the easier tone Of
the London money market wlping out the
margin of profit on the transaction. 1t is
evident that London is not uneasy over the
insufticiency of its present money resources
so long as Paris refrains from withdraw
ing credits. Judged by to-day's preliminary
estimates the heavy gold exports by Thurs
days steamer have been more than offset
by receipts from other sources, so that the
banks are likely to show a cash gain in to-
morrowS statement. Up TO Thursday night
the banks had lost to the sub-treaSury, in
Guiding the payments for the gold exported,
$S4y,OOO and this did not include the credit
to the banks on account of yesterdays
government bond redemptions, which in
volved the payment by the sub-treasury
of about a million dollars. By the regular
export movement to the interior the banks
have gained on balance about a million
and a half dollars, the receipts for the week
having increased to about double those Of
last week, while the shipments were con-
siderably less. The loan item of the banks
remains TO be reckoned with. TIL market
closed firm at considerable net gains scat
tered through the list.
The railroad bond market was moder-
ately active and irregular in it's changes.
Total sales at par value were $~3,275,OOO.
United States bonds were all unchanged

Market Continues to BE Disappointing
in Many Respects.
Meyer & Kisers Telegram.1

meyer q hlSeT Telegram
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-To-day's market
continued to be of a very unsatisfactory
nature, a large proportion of the dealings
being either for the professional element
or for certain cliques. At the opening there
was a tendency to advance, due mainly to
covering by the traders, but the upward
movement was not we'll sustained, in spite
of evident attempts to secure higher prices
by m~anipulative methods. There was
rather good buying of the coal stocks, more
especially of the Readings. Union Pacific
recovered a part of yesterdays decline, but
during the afternoon became dull and fuc-
tuated within narrow limits. The most i'm
portant movements of the day took place
in the traction stocks under the leadership
Of Manhattan and Metropolitan. The for
mer was heavily bought by brokers repre-
senting Gould interests, while in the latter
there were evidences of rather urgent
short covering. The usual rumors were cur
rent of closer relationship between the va
riOuS traction companies, but there was no
official confirmation of these stories. AS an
influence on the market the recent an
nOuncement in egard to the Great North
ern-Northern Pacific deal has fallen quite
fiat and has been a complete failure as an
attraction to the outside public. A some
what bullish feeling existed during the
afternoon on account of increased ease in
the money market. To-morrow's bank
statement is expected to show a moderate
increase in cash in spite of the gold ex-
ports.

Wheat opened strong. considering the
