The large buying of Southern Railway was without much effect on the price. The weakness Os Manhattan was at- tributed to fears of a strike by engin- eers and mOtormen. The rise in Penn sylvania and it's subsidiary coal carriers was apparently in sympathy with the Hooking Valley movement. National Lead was reported in demand for some large financial interests. The subtreas- ury is absorbing a considerable sum from the money market. but the prom ise of New York exchange at Chicago indicates that the tide of currency Is still flowing this way. Foreign exchange is firm, but the very strong return made to-day by the Bank of France reflects the accumulation of resources at that capital and the unlikelihood of further pressure from there for gold or for ce- payment of loans. London showed en- couragement over the evidences of the improved condition of the king of Eng land and bought some stocks. The buoyancy of a few stocks continued to the close. which was active and steady.

THE STOCK MARKET.
Farther Expansion of Trading aud
 Same Irregular Strength.

New York, Aug. 7-There was a fur ther expansion in the volume of trading in to-day's stock market and the same kind Of irregular strength which was shown yesterday. There were points of weakness of the market, in spite of the marked strength of the most conspicu- ous stocks and there was a still larger number of important stocks which did not respond to the advance and were simply dull and neglected throughout the session. Many of the stocks which advanced did so in violent and cratic manner as though reflecting an effort to adjust the value to new conditions rather than responding to a regular de- mand for absorption on a recognition of merit or of increasing earnings It took but two transactions to life Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern 15 points. following a % point rise yesterday. This was the result of the announcement by the protective committee of minority stockholders that they had secured an offer of higher price for the outstand- ing minority stock unassenting to the plan of exchange with Rock Island. Other controlled stocks which seemed to be affected in sympathy as though by hopes of absorption on advantageous terms at some time in the future were those of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis, the KanaWha and Michigan and the New York. Chicago and St, Louis lines. The Hooking Valley stocks and Louisville and Nashville moved up- wards with almost equal violence, but with no specific development to explain the movement. The rise in Illinois Gen. tral had in it's favor excellent reports of gross earnings for July and net earn ings for June. Missouri Pacific was un- der considerable pressure, declining at one time 1A, while Texas and Pacific on the other hand continued to advance.
