NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET


NEW YORK, Aug, 2o-Although market
views seemed rether divergent this morning
another urgent covering movement by the
shorts brought about resumption of yester-
DAVIS buying and all the leading issues were
moved upward. Southern Pacific common
,naintaiped It's recent reputation by establish
jng a new high record while Union Pacific
sold above its recent high price. The move
menf in the Harrimans seemed to carry along
the balance Of the list. There was no little
selling for profits, but this made only a
slight impression, the market closing active
and strong at practically the best quotations.
Today's market would indicate that virtually
all Of the early weeks short interest has been
wiped out and that traders are almost solidly
arrayed on the bull side. There were no inn
rortant new developments during the day, but
runors again blsy of closer Hartmann
Gould relations The annual report of the
Reading committee showed q decrease in net
earnings by the railway of 1882 900, while the
coal company reported falling off of sS16OO.
Canadian Pacific for July showed a net loss Of
$z52, 900. computation made by the Financial
Chronicle of 50 railroads for june reports an
average net loss of 9.39 per cent.
While almost every road made heavy gross
losses tire net decrease was greatly dimin-
jshed by reason Of the drastic methods which
were employed to cut down expenses. The
hank statement was slightly mixed and seemed
to reflect the shifting of accounts that may
hav been made necessary by reason of the
weeks unusual conditions in the stock and
cotton markets. The cash gain was under
the lowest estimates, with only a moderate
Increase in loans. The sum total made only
a slight fractional change in the cash re-
serves which averaged 29.61 per cent against
20 IS per cent last week London reported an

YOUNG MOTHER coNFEssEs
NUMBERING HELPLESS INFANT

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29.-Tht
murder of a helpless infant came to
light today in South San Francisco
just over the line in San Mateo coun-
ty. when Mamie Slass confessed to Dis
trict Attorney Joseph J. Bullock that
she had strangled her own new born
babe to death and had thrown its body
into the bay. The body of the infant
was found floating in the bay last
Thursday.
Suspicion pointed to Mamie Slass. a
young domestic. She at first indig-
nantly asserted her innocence, accord
ing to the police, but soon broke down
and admitted that 1T was her child, told
how she had strangled it and under
cover of night took 1t to the bay and
threw it into the water. The woman
identified the babe at the Inorgue and
she was then placed in the county Jail
at Redwood City.
