The stock market to-day was dull and feature less in the main, but presented a strong under tone and was rather stronger than yesterday, the prevailing feeling being that the reaction had about reached its limit. In accordance with this feeling sellers of the past few days were the principal buyers to-day, though there was little disposition to trade outside of a few stocks in which interest was maintained from special causes. Itichmond and West Point absorbed most of the attention of speculators. The crowd dealing in stock was quite large and excited, the report being that Messrs. Flower. Inman and Rockafeller, witli probably other influential men, would go into the directory, and that either Flower or Inman would become president of the company. Reading and Western Union were more prominent than of late, but while I be former was strong the latter was sold down on a stop order, tnough its change for the day is insignificant. Vanderbilts continue firm on'exy pected increase in dividends, though a reduction in rates to meet that of the Grand Trunk told against them late in the day. Union Pacific and Wheeling and Ijike Erie were firm in the early dealing, but yielded with the remainder in the afternoon Fluctuations were confined within very narrow limits, and transactions in most onses wore without special significance. The close was quiet but steady at small fractions from opening figures. Most stocks are higher to-night, though the only important changes comprise again of 28k per cent, in Richmond Terminal preferred and lk in the common, and a loss of 1k per rent, in Colorado Coal.

Green * Co.'s report on cotton futures says: “It has been a fairly active market for cotton options, and while at times slightly irregular, prices generally inclined upward aud made a gain of about 15 points, with backing enough to support the advance until just about the close, when a partial reaction left the rates 9@lo points above last evening and barely steady. A general moderate offering and more or less cheerful accounts from Liverpool inspired the demand, which quickened up >n the discovery of light offerings, and demonstrated the timidity of shorts in the face of anything that looked like a buoyant tendency."

Freights St ChiicAGO, Nov. 22.—Lack of outside orders tave the big scalpers on the board a chance to o a big business to-day, and so large were the operations that the market was a nervous one. Tlie continuance qf dry weather in the wheat belt was used by the bulls to keep the price of wheat up. Tremendous efforts were made by scalpers in wheat to break the afternoon market, and the efforts were successful. May wheat, which at 1 o’clock was 83kc, sold down to 82%c, and closed at that price. May corn closed at 48%e, after opening at 49c. All provis ions touched their lowest figure for the day on the afternoon board, but closed at a trifle better prices. Pork felt a generally easier tone. Early prices in this pit were about 12kc higher than the closing. One feature in provisions during the first hour was the sale or 10,000 barrels at 814 for January, while the straight market was a good deal nearer sl3 95. This put it up to sl4 05, but it weakened and reacted. Closing prices for May wheat, corn and oats were nearly the same as at the opening, and fluctua tions were only about k< ! in any of the options. Lard, which sold at the opehing at $7 07k for January, sold up 2k<', but sold at the close at the opening figure. Short ribs opened at $7 for January, ran up to $7 05, but closed one point lower than the opening price. Cash quotations were as follows: Flour quiet. Wheat, No. 2 spring 7614 c: No. red 7t;Ur. Corn.
