3 here was hecvler selling for London ac
count tliis morning than has been noticed
since the decline first began. The marxet
opened decidedly lower in sympathy with
Loudon, and th bears and room traders also
joined in the movement, which resulted in
mrtlier material declines (luring the first
hour. Selling for foreign account had an tin -
settling effect upon the street, whde there
was no news of any special character to affect
values except the" reports of Northwest and
Omaha, the earning* of which were favor
able. The market soon rallied when the soil
ing pressure was removed, but there was a
drooping tendency throughout the day. and
toward the close another a 1 tempt to liquidate
long account* induced renewed selling by the
bear*, which, notwithstanding free offerings
or money at low rates, broke the list badly,
and the market dosed active and weak at
material declines from Saturday’s figures.
Reading, Union Pacific, Lackawanna, and
St. Paul wore the special objects of attack
Inie in the dav. the weakness in Union Pacific
being attributed to a failure of the House 01
ItepresenUt ves to consider the funding bill,
Bter ing ex hange rates were advanced Lie in
consequence of sales of securities in this
market. The opening was remarkably weak,
six stocks showing declines of from 1 to 1%
percent. There were further declines in most
of the active stocks during the first half hour,
which was followed bv comparative dullness,
with prices fluctuating within a narrow
range. The ln*t hour, however, saw a re
newal of selling, prices again yielding ma
terially. and the ciose w as weak and active at
the lowest figure* of the dav. Total sales
