proftt-taking, the market broke little There was less selling on the declines however, than was observed on similar occasions last week, when the late 'at- tacks" had such pronounced effect.
 St, Paul and Union Pacific were the most active stocks yesterday, advanc- ing sharply in the early trading on what seemed to be good buying. This strength did not hold, however, and both stocks were sold heavily before the close, when the market sold off in all sections.
 The market around midday began to give signs of exhausted power and of too large supply of stocks from quar- ters that were shrewd enough to scent a change in sentiment few days ago.
 Rise to s per cent in call money was due to the shifting of accounts incident to the final payment on the New York city bond sale of last week. In addi- ton to this transaction, the banks had to finance several payments for short- term notes.
 Most of the selling appeared to come from the bear clique. It had no special significance, and no other news occur red to account for It.
 The forward movement of the morn ing was on short covering. This was of sufficient size to absorb the stocks 1o Ian were put out by interests who gave support week ago.
 The calling of loans was due to the necessary preparations for syndicate payments for new notes and other se- curities. The demand for call money happened to be rather light, and brok- CTS did not care to bid any more than they had to.
 The rise in money rates was rather unexpected and therefore more effective in checking the advance. It discounted to some extent poor bank statement to-day.
 The announcement of an issue of s6,- 100000 per cent. one-year notes, guar anteed by the Delaware and Hudson was regarded as of more importance because of the high rate paid than from any other standpoint.
 The professional interests were the largest buyers yesterday. It was sus- pected that the selling came from those ctr ole would have them.
 London traded in about 15,O00 shares here, mostly sales, including the gran gers.
 Those who began quietly to buy stocks at the end of last week and were thought overbold are finding themselves with plenty of company.
 The ease with which Canadian Pacific sold it's preferred stock in London gave the Lowry interests, who need fresh capital, much hope.
 That sentiment showed a material improvement was probably due, in measure to the considerable buying of stocks by firms with Washington con nections, and to the reports, repeated for two days, that something import ant would come from Washington soon which would do much to clear up the situation.
 The recovery in Soo common stock represented an end of the liquidation on which the price went under 110. It was said that some weak holdings had been protected around that level.
 The further rise in Standard Oil nat. urally started a discussion as to it's cause, partly, no doubt, because of the munfcent gift of it's chief owner to the cause of education. A report was cur rent that antagonism against the great trust would come to an end sooner than expected, but this was so indefinite that few believed it..

Six Per Cent. Money Causes the Break

 Days Gossip.
 The stock market held well and made further advances until at about two o'clock, the price of call money rose to 6 per cent, upon which news, added to profit-taking, the market broke a little. There was less selling on the declines, however, than was observed on similar occasions last week, when the late "at- tacks" had such pronounced effect.

 When Justice Fitzgerald had taken his seat on the bench there was a conference among the attorneys and 1t was decided that there would be no session tomorrow. Washington's birth day.
 When Mrs. Thaw was called to the stand. she glanced at her husband and smiled.
 Then she turned to Justice Fitz- gerald and made little bow to him. but the justice did not notice her. Mir.
