AT all events. today's market showed
very irregular movements in prices, and
throughout the day displayed uncertain
tendencies.
London was again a heavy seller here,
disposing of upward of 1000 shares of
stocks, and I'm addition materially low

that point. Notwithstanding these cir
cumstances, the market opened generally
strong, but except in a few Of the special
ties in and out Of the railway list a
rather reactionary tendency soon de-
veloped. With the course Of the day there
were submitted a large number of rail
way traffic returns for the first week of
the month, and these made almost uni
formly good showings.
The money market continued firm, and
sterling exchange scored further ad-
vance. The prospects of additional gold
shipments on Thursday may have played
aome part in the uncertain tendencies of
the market, but on the Other hand they
dld not appear to enter into the days
discussion. The dealings continued in
large volume, and showed the same broad
and general diversification of interest
that has been displayed during The last
week.
All the local traction stocks continued
exceedingly strong and active in todays
market. notably for Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit and Metropolitan Street Railway So
far as could be ascertained the striking
movements in this direction were not
based upon any new developments and
were accounted for only through more or
less technical explanations. a large short
interest has existed for long time in
Brooklyn Rapid Transit and Metropoli-
tan Street Railway, for reasons which
have been a matter of general comment.

THE GRIP EPIDEMIC.
The Disease More Prevalent than Ever and
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.

The Disease More Prevalent than Ever and
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doc
tors and health authorities this season
by its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either a fatal onset of
pneumonia, or a complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol-
low an attack of grip.
The wise course for all is proven
ton. BY wearing Benson's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary care) you are
safe from grip.
For those who are already suffer-
ing from grip, or from the usual win
ter coughs and colds, Benson's Ptdsters
are sure and speedy relief and cure.
Highly medicinal and scientific.
Refuse limitations and substitutes.
Only the genuine are effective. Ex-
anime when you buy. Seabury &
