NEW CONFIDENCE
 IN STOCK MARKET Recession of Prices Continues
 Very Gradually BEARS STOP THEIR RAIDS Market Turns Very Dull Toward the cIose-Agreement Between South

 Alabama Doesn't Help.
BEARS STOP THEIR RAIDS

New York, August 9.-The remarkable features of today's stock market in view of the fluctuations of the last few days, was It's freedom from nervousness and sensationalism, in spite of the recurrence of marked degree 6f weakness. The hope that the liquidation had spent it's force, and that substantial rally would result from the requirement. of the un- covered short interest. was short lived. New points of weakness developed almost from the outset. Instead of the feverish and violent break which characterized yesterdays market, however, there was a gradual and not disorderly recession.
 The bears refrained from the fierce rading tactics which have been em- ployed for several days and on the other hand seemed in no anxiety to cover their short contracts. Rallies were few and infrequent although the decline was many times arrested The pauses in the sell ing gave place until late in the day, simply to dullness, and the market was slngularly lacking in resiliency.
 One supposition offered to explain this was thf- oxidation was going on by import;.u; ..ltercsts without being forced, who were able to withhold the selling at weak times, and to offer actual sup port against raiding tactics by the bears. There was a considerable reduction in the volume of business and consider able intervals of actual dulness in the market. The news of the day had little direct influence on the market.
 The agreement reached between the Southern railway and the Alabama state authorities failed to exercise any stim- ulating effect on demand for the securi- ties of that road. A statement from the acting attorney general of the United Stases was construed as being intended for reassuring against some of the sen sational rumors in circulation of the governments further intentions of the prosecution of corporations. The news that the attorney general was in con sultation with the President, however,

and the possibility of public announce ment of the result. was a restraint on the market. The pronounced recovery of the day came after the report of the granting of a writ of error to the Stand ard oil company in the case involving the $29 O00,000 fine.
 A direct connection between these two facts was not clearly evident. The ex- treme weakness of some individual stocks was a factor in keeping the rest of the market unsettled. Canadian Pacific was an acute sufferer in this respect, both here and in London
 The passing of the dividend on Grand Trunk, third preferred shares, affected the other Canadian stocks. The lnterbor- ough Metropolitan securities collapsed in company without news in explanation, beyond investigation of the company in progress by the public utilities commis- sion.
 Rates for call loans were slightly lower than yesterday, but the time loan market was very strong and supplies very small. The estimates of the weeks cash changes showed a decisive turn in the tide of the currency movement away rom NeW York, the balance of shipments over re- ceipts being estimated at I,O00oo; pe- sides the transfer through the sub-treas- ury of $1, 100000 to Chicago and San Fran cisco The weeks heavy liquidation Of securities has undoubtedly gone to pay ing off obligations, but there have been some heavy syndicate payments during the week. The $15,OOOo0o payment to- day for Union Pacific convertible bonds would figure but slightly on the week 8 average loan accounts. Stocks got no help from the government crop report the corn condition showing less than the expected improvement, while the decllne in the condition of spring wheat was regarded as sensational

 The opening was firm at an advance of to 12 points and shortly afterwRrd the market showed a net gain of II to IS points on buying by brokers believed to be working for the bear leaders, covering by smaller shorts and some fresh support attracted by the higher cables. continued dry. hot weather in the southwest, reports that southwest ern farmers would hold the new crop for 15 cents and the fact that August notices were not only smaller than eX pected, but were being quickly stopped. At the advance there was heavy real izing by some of the larger local bulls and during the late morning prNes eased off slightly from the top DG1 rallied again in the afternoon on con tinued covering by the big short inter ests and reached the high point quite late in the day when October sold at 12.S2 and January at t2.55, or about 20 to 26 points net higher.
