NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealing In All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, Feb. 19.-Speculative activity
diminished today and except in a few
cases movements were unimportant. The
market improved slowly in the morning,
but subsequently drifted back again. The
days business was about half of that
transacted in the preceding session.
The morning advance was Influenced by
the statement of Commissioner Harlan of
the Interstate Commerce Commission that
a decision would be made in the freight
rates case within the next three months,
Speculative opinion inclineS strongly to
the belief that some increase will be
granted. There was a good inquiry for
the standard railroad shares and also
for the stocks of steel companies and
affiliated industries which are expected
to benefit from more liberal puylng
policy on the part of the carries If they
are permitted to raise their rates. The
extent to which the speculative position
is bound up In the freight rates case is
shown by the weeks movement of stocks.
Mondays sharp decline and yesterdays
confused fluctuations were due almost
entirely to Washington reports concern
ing varying phases of the question ana
today 1t was again the uppermost consld-
Grafton in influencing the market.
The afternoon reaction was due more
to the cessation of buying than to pres
sure on the list. Weakness of various
stocks also held back the general market.

ment about three months before she was
cured" (Signed) Mrs. ]. A. Eldredge, Nov.
