State bonds dull but steady The movements in the stock market to day closely resembled those of yesterday, but the declines were not so extensive, while the rally was much stronger, and most stocks ended the day w ith a small net gain. There was a dearth of news, but the dividend on Pacific and vague rumors of a surprise in Western Union were of considerable use in maintaining prices. There was a tendency also to look upon the favorable side as regards the action of the Secretary of the Treasury tomorrow. Tne lxvtrs, however, quickly got to work, and meet - ing with no opposition beyond a legitimate de mand for stocks, experienced no difficulty in depressing values, although they were not sue cessful in dislodging long stock as they have horn of lute. When this movement exhausted itself, vigorous buying set in. in which the sellers of the forenoon were prominent, and in i almost everything early losses were more than regained. The attention was concentrated upon some half dozen stocks, while the remainder were stagnant. Northern Pacific, the coal stocks and Missouri Pacific led the decline, while New England and Union Pacific were the strongest among tie* active list. The first, soles were made at irregular changes of small fractions from yesterday's final prices, and the market was quiet with four or five stocks monopolizing the business. After a little hesitation, prices advanced a fraction, but aga:n receded with more animation, and the market was carried below the opening. There was a more decided break in the afternoon, when Western Union joined the weak stocks. Tho lowest figures were generally reached shortly after I p. m., when the rallv became-goneral. an I 1 sharp up ward movement resulted. Tho advance was checked only with the close of business which na:< dull and firm at about opening figures. The total (lav's business was 210,000 shares. A great majority of the active list are small fractions higher to-ni-dit.

Liverpool was tame and disappointing, and crop accounts on the whole had a better look, which was continued. The absence of buying orders left the market barren of supporting elements. The local short interest also appeared to have about cover© on yesterday's flurry, and were selling agnMto some extent , with more or less offering oirSouthern account. Still, on the whole, the pressure was not severe, and 50.7 points loss on the price was in some cases par tially recovered, with a faint showing of steadi ness for near and an easy tone 011 late months. At the doso spot business was quite full." Galveston, Aug 23. Cotton firm; middling not receipts 1,297 bales, gross 1,309; sales 508 Ikil*;s: stock .5.390 bales.
