The stock market was moderately active to
day, and strong ail the way out, after a de
cidedly weak opening, coal stocks being the
special features of the trading. There were
some pressure to sell for Loudon account, which
made a weak opening, butthougu the bears and
professionals put out some fresh short lines,
there was good buying by cliques, and to a
moderate degree by commission houses.
Humors were early circulated that the strike on
Reading was about to collapse, w.jich stimu
lated purchases for speculative account, an . on
confirmation of the rumor shorts in coal stocks
especially swelled the number of buyers. Deal
ings in Reading were attended by consideraole
excitement in the early morning, but Lacka
wanna afterward took the load and shot up
rapidly, carrying the general list boyoud I lie
best prices of Sat urday. The prompt and firm
action of the Reading Company did a great deal
to restore and preserve confidence, and no halt
was made In the upward movement when once
fairly started. The news of the day, beyond
that mentioned, was not of special importance
and hail little effect upon prices. Among other
stocks, which became noticeable for strength,
was Missouri Pacific and Canada Southern,
though the amount of business done in either
was small. The opening was weak at declines
of from )4®!4 per cent., but New Jersey Central
was off .I4 aud Reading 1)4, the effect of the
strike The market reacted quickly from these
figures, however, and advanced all along the
line, though New Jersey Central and Reading,
aud afterward Lackawanna, were most promi
nent for Ihe strength displayed. The market
showed little animation out of the few leading
stocks, however, and dealing in most fif the list
wore devoid of feature, ex ept with the im
provement in bribes. Tnere was no setback of
importance. though small reactions occurred
before noon and in the last hour. The advance.

Green * Co.’s report on cotton futures says:
“On the market the holiday influence continues
to a considerable extent, and business shows
very little beyond local deals The general
tone to-day, however, has been pretty firm, and
the cost averaged higher throughout. At first
matters looked a little toppy, but with some
strong bidding from one or two operators, the
turn of values was forced oi au upward scale,
and 708 points gain secured. Firmer Liverpool
accounts and rather light receipts possibly
helped the tone somewhat, but the move was
evidently principally manipulation, and by
some thought to be in anticipation of the issue
of January notices. Some 708 points covered
the entire advance over Friday evening, anil
after the bidding censed, a greater portion of
this was lost with the close, which was steady,
but the movement dull.”
