Market Review

New York, February 19.-There was an
siement among the professional operators
on the stock Exchange which worked
for rally today on theory that yesler-
days selling was largely due to oreFa-
tions for the bear account, and that the
vigorous support of the market wouio
drive the bears TO cover. Tne manoeuvre
was not entirely without success ana
especially In the early dealings, but all o.
the strength was confined to very II"
stocks and was not long maintalneo
Business fell away materially at tineS
during the day, showing no signs o. the
recent large general demand for operations
by large banking and financial Interests,
which has neen the backbone of the mar
ket for long time. Obviously none b.
professional operators were Interested
to any extent in ths days transactions
There was large buying again OF the
Southern Pacific bonds. U. ). bonds
were ali unchanged on the last call,
