and comprehensive, and the tone of spec- I
illation extremely varl.d. The general tin- I

ed demand would carry prices upward
again on a much smaller volume of busi
ness than that on which they had de
clined.
Business was so large and so largely
distributed that movements of special
slocks had lit tie influence on the general
list, and the market a( times showed ex
cessive irregularity. Even while large
realizing was goirnng on at one point, an
eager demand would spring up at another
and keep the balance about even.
Considering the large to.al of the day's
transactions, net changes are small. The
advance in Atchison preferred brought out
such a flood of offerings that the demand
seemed to lie abandoned largely, and turn
ed to other low price stocks.
A number of preferred railroad stocks
which have not yet come to the full divi
dends to which they are entitled, and some
of the junior stocks, on which a surplus
over preferred stocks has been earned,
but not disbursed, were especially promi
nent.
Northern Pacific common was the leader
in the late speculation, at an advance of
2 points, and Denver preferred rose at one
time 1% per cent. The Industrial si>e
oialities were irregular, moving up and
down in an erratic manner, without re
gard to the general course of prices.
Sugar was at one time above 140, while
Manhattan fell as low as 105, and was de
pressed all day. Depression was manifest
also at other points in the Industrial list.
Net gains, in consequence, were shown
only in a few cases.
There was heavy offerings of bonds at
times, especially of recently reorganized
roads, a considerable part of the se.ling
being attributed to foreign account. Total
sales, $4,320,000. Unithd States new is cou

—Hkks—Wheeler and Rrassey met for
the first time yesterday,and they got on to
gether famously. They kept up their talk
until late In the evening.
Wicks—What were they talking about?
Hicks—(Bleyele and golf.
Wicks—ißut Wheeler doesn't know tha
first thing about golf.
Hicks—Neither floes Rrassey know any
thing about bicycling. But that makes
no difference. Each kept It up on his fa
vorite topic, without listening to the oth
er.—Boston Transcript.
