Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK. October O.-Prices con-
tinued to harden in today's stock market
as the result OF slight improvement in the
monetary situation and q growing conf
dence In an early settlement OF the coal
strike. London was a buyer Of stocks and
traders covered rather freely in the face Of
an improved demand from commission
houses.
The banks have gained upward Of "a, O0O.-
600 from the subtreasury since last Friday.
and moderate amount Of gold has come
In. which. added to three days Of loan iqui-
dalton, materially improves the bank situa-
ton big market is not to be encouraged
just yet. however. and 10 per cent money
seems to have been the restraining medium
selected by the banks. The mere fact that
the relief has come Is not to be converted
into an excuse for further speculative ex-
cesses.
The situation is thought to be an i'm
proving one. however. and there is I'M
questionably a class of buyers in the pres
ent market stronger in every way than the
sellers. The recent transfer of important
speculative holdings in Reading to an i'm
portant banking house Is a significant
transaction and will be duplicated on
Now that Mr.. Mitchell has officially de-
clined to accept the Presidents plan for
settling the coal strike the street is hope
full Of successful results in other quarters
The conference in this city today has the
capacity for settling the difficulty and en-
joys the favor of the operators. Unfortu-
nately for peace prospects, tho Washington
conference was not popular move from
the operators standpoint and their deter
mination to make the final terms, no mat
ter at what sacrifice of pride, has doubled
within the week
The prospects for concessions to the min
ers are increasing, but the new contract will
be modelled on the lines of immunity from
further disturbances for a longer period
than that covered by the usual wage scale.
Rumors that President Baer of Reading
had resigned were circulated during the
morning, but met with vigorous denial.
The coal stocks were well bought and
every indication Of the day pointed to some
maturing plan for relief.
Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Canadian
Pacific and all the recent sufferers from
liquidating sales rallied easily under good
buying. Atchison was in better demand
from both accounts, and the higher-priced
dividend paying shares reflected better
inquiry.
The declaration OF the regular ~ per
cent on Southern railway preferred stock
was an encouraging development of the
day.
The western party was buyer OF stocks
at various times during the day. and SEN
timent was more hopeful than at any time
In several days. There is a large uncov-
cred short interest in the market which will
be made the center of an attack once some
really good news is announced.
