ST. LOUIS TRANSIT STOCK

THERE WERE RUMORS OF \
BULL CLIQUE.
Bank and Trust Company Stocks
Freely Changed Hands at
Both Sessions.

st. L.uis Transi. was the card +, The
local stock market yesterti.iy. Bota ses-
sions were extremely lively and the volume
OF trading in the traction securities was
larger than in months. Transit stock ad :.
vanc-d rapidly and was eagerly bought on
an ascending scale at tine morning session
When the accounts were cast In n, thf.
end Of IS minutes trading it was found
that 2s35 shares of the stock had changed
hands on the upturn between sgs5e and,
szt.a". In" transactions were 10 n cansil-
cradle extent professional though ther.
was good outside demand for the shares.
AT the opening the stock was freely sold
Ut s2s5o and a little later at $50 Then
.he orders began to come out. II was ap-
parent tnat certain brokers were buying on
tfeir own account and the stock was rap
IDLY bid up. A considerable volume of the
transactions represented buying back by
those who had sold at lower prices earlier
in the session. All offers at SO We're
quickly sobbled up. Still the price ad-
vanced again the brokers who had sold
the stock at the lOw point and who had
bouSht II back at loss were heard from.
In some cases they succeeded in breaking

In this way the same stock changed
hands several times. While the list of sales
shows that 2,sS5 shares We're traded in at

stock here was based on 4 good New York
demand ana the unconfirmed statement
that Fasteners and St Louisans we're en-
deavoring to form pool to bull local trac-
tions.
Between the bull raids on Transit there
wa' excellent trading in other securities
especially those of the bank and trust
companies. The range was narrow through
out the list. but there was feeling of
firmness which augured further advances
especially in bank stocks.
St Louis Transit eased off at the after
noon session. II pool was at work il
certainly was not trying to force the issue
as the stock was permitted TO sag first to

Small Supply-HO9s Lower.

The open quarantine season in Illinois this
year will be from Nov. to and inclusive Of Dec
81. when cattle from below the quarantine line
will be passed into that State without resthc-
ton.
The same period will apply to Missouri. which
State will have inspector at this market. who
will pass all quarantine cattle which are fee
from ticks. and therefore eligible to enter the
State feeding cattle.
NATIVE CATJLE-Beef Steers-The total sup
plv Of cattle in the native division was around
J. 100 the smallest number for Tuesday In many
weeks. Beef cattle OF all kinds were in small
supply. with light proportion Of good dressed
grades whatever. The demand was fully equal
to the supply and the general trade was steady
to stronger: In some cases right At dime
higher On the other hand. some statesmen
thought they got only steady prices while still
others complained of a mean market, particu-
larly on lightweight steers very good clear
ance was had.
