The stock market, while dull to-day, was still
more active than on any previous day this week,
which was somewhat of a surprise to most of
the operators. Its tone was firm to strong in
the forenoon, but heavy to weak later. There
was some buying by London in the early trud
• ing. and considerable buying for suort account
followed, aud under a spurt in Chicago, Dar
lington and Quincy other specialties advanced
materially. Tne old story iff trouble with em
ployes on Reading, coupled with a rumor that
the syndicate were selling out its stock, was
circulated, and the result was a break in that
stock, which dragged all the rest down, and the
gains of the morning hours wore generally lost
before the close. News of the decision in favor
of IPicking Valley against its former officers in
duced a sudden spurt in that stock late in the
day, but the general list for the most part was
devoid of feature throughout and sunk back
into the usual listlessness, while a few stocks
monopolized the Interest in transactions. Man
hattan was the weak spot again, though it was
extremely dull throughout. The opening was
firm at advances extending to ?9 per cent, and
ou bet ter business than hud iieon seen so far
his week advanced steadily until after 11
t’clock, when best price:< generally were reached
Hocking Valley and Burlington and Quincy
caused some excitement, m the market, which,
however, soon disapjieared when the attack
upon Reading began. Transactions in the last
named stock were very heavy from that time,
while the remainder showed a steadily increasing
volume of business, with a heavy tone. The
market closed dull and rather heavy at but in
significant changes from first prices. Bales of
the day aggregated 902,000 shares. Most of the
list, as compared with last evening’s prices, are
small fractions higher, but Chicago. Burlington
and Quincy is uo 2 per cent, aud Hocking Valley
I©, while Manhattan is down 1)4 per cent. The

Green & Co.’s report on cotton futures says:
“Cotton certificates iiave not shown much ani
mation nor any great amount of fluctuation in
value, and on the whole appearances were
steady. The market, however, was c* idently
simply held up by the longs, as no really new
demaffd came in. Local short interest did not
appear to amount to much, and two or three
leading operators simply stood around the
circle and put in their bids whenever it became
necessary to stay the declining tendency. At
the close near months were about the same as
last evening and distant months a fraction
higher, with the tone dull. Liverpool was with
out much encouragement and the South sending
no new features.”
