Stocks and Bonds.

New York, Oct 21.-There was re-
vival of speculative excitement in
stocks to-day. There was some UNI
certainty in the early market as 10
whether the mid-week reaction had
been decisively checked by yesterdays

to be the case the trading broke into
great animation. The rise was I'M
even. one point and then another be-
ing affected but in the course of the
days very large dealings practically
all of the important stocks came IN
for their share of the advance. The
tide of the market was so strong that
room traders became very bold in their
operations and dealt in practically an
limited amounts of the violently ac'
tive stocks. The dimensions of such
operations is indicated by the big
break made during the squirt in Penn
SyiVania for any part of 50,0O0 Shafes
at 1877 rs. The lump in the local
fractions was extended and deal
rumors regarding that group were the
influence, in spite Ct official denlals OF
any merger. The renewed advance IN
Union Pacific after a period of hesita-
ton had as more substantial basis
the consideration of the details OF the
annual report, which was regarded as
testifying to the extraordinary pros
perity and strength of that system
These special movements had far

(By the Associated Press.)

New York Oct. 21.-The cotton
market opened steady at an advance
of points on moderate covering
Cables were a little better than ex-
pected and the early weather reports
were rather unfavOrable. Storms
were reported from the Eastern bel,
and private wires indicated frosts a,
certain points in Texas. Mississippi
and Alabama. This probably caused
the early hesitation and brought in
some covering by shorts and little
demand through wire houses. Blu,
reports from the Southern spot mar
kets continued unfavorable and shore
~ after the opening it became appar-
ent that large spot interests were ham,
mering prices in the local market. The
list turned easier and ruled unsettled
pretty much all the rest of the session.
The close was steady in tone oWin;.
TO an increased demand from shorts
but prices were at practically the
lowest, 6a10 points. Sales were esti-
mated a 250,00 bales.
Philadelphia interests were believ-
ed to be persistent sellers during the
entire session.
