STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Narrow Movements and Money
Worry-Late Trading Better.

Nothing of special trading impor-
lance developed at the opening OF the
stock market yesterday and nothing
was expected, so the situation was
fairly normal, considering the period
and the action Of the market on Ihurs-
day. Stocks were offered and accepted;
there was no display of activity on
either side, so action presented sort OF
drawn battle, so far as decided move
ments betrayed any tendency OF prices
The trading was so narrow that the
market was feferred TO in the familiar
descriptive phrase Of standing SUM-
and traders employed their time dis
cussing the topics of the hour, sucn as
high money. the hoodoo, Friday the
18th and other subjects which filed III
but brought forth no trading results
Louisville & Nashville and southern
Railway were strong and Mexican
Petroleum advanced, but this exhibit
ton of strength signified very little so
FAR as an effect was shown in general
sentiment. Goldheld Consolidated was
sold literally on rumors affecting the
dividend and reports that the ore re-
serves were in an unsatisfactory con-
dition. Support came 10 this stock,
however, and II made partial recov-
~ry. Like all gold mines, Golddeid
q consolidated mines may show signs OF
q bottom at any time, though from the
company's statement and outside in
formation such a condition is not eX
pected. The New York bank state
ment. TO be issued to-day, really caused
considerable apprehension on the part
lot traders. II did not appeal 20 them
that the fact that assistance could
easily be secured in Washington If
necessary was bull argument. Such
sn alternative, il was pointed out,
would be ruinous TO the market, so far
and there was in evidence disposition
TO await the coming OF to-day and the
publication Of the weekly bank return.
With the exception of some activity
IN bp6CldlS lUeI6 was lO II duiuS' o'AN .!
was plainly evident that the market
had reached a dead centre. In the late
afternoon there was come gain in the
markets strength, under the leader
Rhip of Southern Railway preferred, on
the announcement Of dividend. The
money outlook was really what inter
ested traders more than anything else,
and they did not exhibit any impress
siYe enthusiasm over the markets de-
veloped betterment. The final closing
displayed an irreguarity which told
little to the outsider. More may be de-
Quoted from the Developments of the
next few days. If the money situation
can be cleared the action Of the mar
ket may run along as it has during the
last month, but further calling Of loans
may cause further depression and de-
lay the good effects of splendid under
lying conditions.
