Meeting of the State Society in Bridge
 port.
 The fall meeting of the Connecticut Society Of Civil Engineers will be held at Bridgeport. October II, 1902. The business meeting will be at the Atlantic hotel at 10:30 a. m., when the following applications for membership will be acted upon: Walter A. Brown, Spring. field, Mass: Leon F. Peck, Green- wieh, Conn.,; Elmer w. Stearns, Berlin, Conn; James W. Phelps, Hartford, Conn: Frank J. Davis, Hartford, Conn; Edward II. Everitt, New Haven, Conn; Edgar H. Stiles, New Haven, Conn.,; Fred H. Parsons. Bridgeport, Conn; Paul Stirling, Bridgeport Conn.,, also amendments to the constitution will be acted upon. At 11:S0 the mem- . bers will be taken on tour of inspec- tion by the engineers in charge of the work incident to the improvement of alignment and the abolition of the grade crossings by the N. Y, N. H. & H. R. R. at Bridgeport, under contract to Dwight & Daley, contractors; J. J. O'Brien Constructing company and the J. c. sheehan company. The work in- cludes many interesting features, such as finished masonry east of rivers; piers for the new rolling-lift bridge; the largest open box caisson ever con- structed; improved methods of con- crete mixing; difficult needing and snoring up of buildings along water front; cutting off of piles at a depth of 22 feet under water, and many other points of interest to all engineers.
 The members will then be given q chance to inspect the recently complet- ed electrically operated drawbridge built by the Keystone Constructing company, with 200 foot swing span and five fixed spans, also brick pave ments of Porter brick with grouted joints.

vile, and the remaining 50 per cent. is payable a week from to-day. A 30 per cent. instalIment has been called by the ship combine syndicate. about s15,- 000, 900, payable this week. Fifty per cent. of subscriptions for new Balti- more and Ohio stock, calling for $21,- 1000, are payable on October r.
 These large syndicate requirements may be the cause of the continued un- settlement in the money market in spite of the relieving factors at work. The 8. .0O0 900 of Australian gold at San Francisco was made payable at the sub-treasury to-day. Measuring re- ports of the health of Russell Sage were also a quieting influence in the money market.
 Foreign exchange continued its down. ward course. It is believed also that the morning strength shown by Ameri- cans in London is due to the repur- chases there by American sellers in this market to get the benefit of the cheaper money rate there for carrying stocks. But there was some buying here to-day for London account, which helped to weaken exchange. There were some hopeful expressions current over the coal strike outlook to-day. which help ed sustain the market. Union Pacific was supported with determination and closed at the highest price.
 The bond market was more irregular than stocks and developed points of weakness as the day progressed. The total sales, par value, aggregated s. 665, ,O00.

THE STOCK MARKET.
DeciS et Rolicf from Pressure of Credit
 Contraction.


 Contraction.
 New York, Oct S.--There was decid- the credit contraction by the b anks, and the result was a sharp recovery in the prices of stocks. The demand to cover short contracts by the bears was a considerable factor. There was some show of enthusiasm in the early buying and considerable gains were establish ed. But the enthusiasm did not last the day out and the bears regained con- fidepce. Some points of strength per- sisted to the last, notably Union Pacific. but the market generally became some what apa athetic and closing prices were generally below the best. A stiffening in the money rate late in the day to 15 per cent. and heavy selling move ment in Amalgamate Copper helped to unsettle the late dealings. The weak ness of Amalgamated is due to the de- cline in the price of copper both in New York and London.
 The fact that to-day's volume of deal ings ran to hut little over half a mil- lion shares, compared with an average of about q million during the recent days of weakness, shows that the re- covery was lacking in strong impetus. The banks showed no disposition to de- viate from their recent determination not to extend credits to stock market customers for the present. There was payment due to-day of nearly s1S,- 000,00O, or 50 per cent, on account of the subscriptions to the syndicate for taking over the Louisville and Nash
