The extraordinary weakness shown by
the Industrial list this afternoon dis
closed beyond question the absence o.
demand for stocks to which we have
been calling attention. Even the rail-
roads at last gave way, in this depart
ment the features being some Of minor
Vanderbilts. The weakness in the in
dustrial quarter extended even to
steels in a comparatively moderate
way. Strength has been looked for in
steel inasmuch as the condition of the
company and its prospects are believed
TO be satisfactory. The days lowest
prices generally prevailed in the clos
ing hour Evidently liquidation hiss
not run its course, and therefore We
continue to advise sales on rallies.

The market rallied this morning after
a somewhat lower opening. but the
strength barely lasted through the
first half hour From that on the tone
was distinctly heavy. but prices at the
close were not materially lower ex-
cept in some of the speoialties. Among
those. International Power had SEN
sational break of about 10 points,
nearly all of which was recovered.
American Locomotive lost all of its
early gain. Steel stocks showed little
change. as did the copper stocks.
Smelters were heavy in the afternoon
market American Car and Foundry
was weak on rumors that its business
had not been as profitable OF late. In
the railroads Nickle Plate yielded easi-
" on small transactions. Glucose was
sold by reason Of report of last years
operations. showing that the surplus
was eneroached on to pay the dividend.
The proposition for the amalgamation
of salt eompany's was apparently not
well received by the National Salt
stockholders. as mat stock had a sharp
break to-day. The general business
was limited and Speculation dull.
Money was a shade firmer on call and
time loans. There was almost no ar
bitrage business. Demaud siS5ia

ing the London lead. No news. Num-
Der of large traders are at the yacht

mared. American smelters, Rubber,
Peoples Gas and that unknown quani-
ty, International Power. Sugar acts
heavy and may be attacked next.
Atchisen is the strongest of the rail
road which do net seem to come out.

The general market was similar in
tone to those of its immediate pre-
decessors. Dealings, however, were not
extensive. and the tendency displayed
in to-day's session was more marked
in the industrial department than In
the railway list. The latter moved
within a narrow limit, varying often
between weakness and strength, but
fluctuations were within an extremely
short radius and of little slgniflcan e
as far as to-day's results are concern
ed; but in the industrial department
quite substantial changes were brought
about. While A. c. p. and Anaconda
as we'll as sugar are virtually IN
changed and displayed firm under
tone. the rest of the industrials under
went considerable changes.
The railroad list naturally suffered
somewhat on account of the erratic
movements in the industrial depart
ment. There was little news to in
fuence railroads one way or the other
and while there was no great pressure
to sell on the other hand there was a
total absence OF buying power and a
noticeable lack of support
