STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Irregular Prices on Small VOL
ume of Transactions.

The action of the stock market yes
terday was rather contrary TO what
might have been expected Of a market
facing d holiday period, an election ana
handicapped by stiff call money rates
Although the volume Of trading was
comparatively small the tone was
steady and at times decidedly oullish'
he opening was quiet, but there ap-
reared to be q reserved strength. and
no attempt was made by the bears 10
exhibit selling activity. For the nrst
hour no activity on either side was
shown. Some pressure centred on
United States Steel caused that stock
10 decline, but support was in evil
Gence and a recovery was made which
al the close showed a gain over Thurs
days final quotation. During the Sec
ond hour a movement was started
which at the beginning promised some
active higher prices, but enthusiasm
was checked by the advance, OF cali
money TO 8 per cent, and while prices
held steady the market settled into a
dun tone, which continued most of the
day. Foreign influence was ignored, so
far as might have been felt from the
news OF the Balkan trouble and the
cable dispatches from Berlin and Lon
don. which indicated that discount
rates would be advanced to parity with
the Paris rate. Both London and PARIS
stock markets were closed, so the only
foreign effect on American securities
for the day was in the action OF trad
ing on the Berlin Boerse, where Ameri-
can shares were impressively strong.
The trade news from various parts OF
the United States gave the accustomed
cheerful reports, and such railroad
earnings for September as were MADE
public, except those Of the New YORK
Central. were rather stimulating. St
Paul made a most favorable showing.
The September increase in gross was
$691, 900; net increase was S92OOOO.
Puget Sound extension Of the st. Paul
showed a gain In September gross OF
$5s2, 600 and in net $685. Among
the commission houses there was d.
v!ded sentiment. but many were In
clined to the bear side. Politics was
discussed, and the trend Of the con-
versation among the numerous small
groups Of traders and brokers was OF
an interrogative nature, wondering
whether the market will go up or
down after election. Some disappoint-
ment was shown in the general foreign
money indications, which seemed to be
taking on a different form than was
expected, and speculation was INDUCED
in regarding the effect Of the defeat OF
the Turks. The closing of the mar
ket, while more favorable than other
wise in the final quotations, displayed
an irregularity of prices.
