STOCKS A PURCHASE
: According to the Bulls, Who, How
ever, Do Nothing but Talk.
READING DECLINES SOMEWHAT
And Burlington Is Sold on Disappointing
Earnings.
A LITTLE EAWil AT THE FINISH
KettTork, Sept. 2S. The stock .mar
ket was not specially interesting to-day, as
no event of importance occurred to cause
any movement in the list. The trading
therefore tailed to throw off its professional
character and the fluctuations, under a
marked indisposition to trade on either side
of the account, were confined as a rule to
the most insignificant tractions. The bulls
on stocks claim that( the market is a pur
chase, 'because the preponderance of the
talent and money are arrayed on that side,
but there is no aggressiveness in the bull
leaders now that the greater part of the
short interest has been forced to cover, and
the followers are, as a rule, inclined to ac
cept profits. The smaller traders are also
encouraged to put out additional small
lines oi shorts, and while tho bears are
practically without leaders there Is a steady
dribbling of stocks which, even in the ab
sence or special pressure, compels a droop
ing tendency for the time being. In many
mocks arbitrary dealings alone determine
the immediate course of tho price, bat such
operations are necessarily small and of no
moment.
There was to-day considerable realizing
among tne lighter traders, and the industri
als wci o especially conspicuous for that kind
oi trailing. Threat of legal action acalust
tho Reiding was sufficient 10 create a tempo
raiy depression. Tliore was also some cell
ing of Burlington, caused oy disappointment
over the earnings, and the animation In tlio
other leaders. Including New England, Mis
souri Tactile and Northern Paciflcpreferred,
bavins entiiely disappeared, tiirlr fluctua
tions were without special significance.
The raaiket remained persisiently barren
of feature throughout, and closed dull, but
firm, at a slight rail.
Railroad bonds were again more animated
with eneeially Heavy trading in Rading sec
onds but only in tavannau and Western
fiists was the activity accompanied by a ma
terial change in quotation, that bond rising
1 percent to 73. The lest of the list was con
fined withi'i the usual narrow limits, and no
tjiccial leature was peon, though the new de
maud, which has sprung no during tho last
two weeks, imparted a firm temper to the
dealings. The transactions reached $1,353,000
Government bonds were dull and steady.

HOG PRODUCTS HIGHER
On the Chicago Hoard of Trade and TVTieat,
Oats and Corn Lower.
Chicago, Sept 2S. An undignified upset
wassrven wheat to-day by the showing of a
liis increase in available stocks. Immedi
ately heavy local speculators took fright
and dumped their wheat Fine weather
weakened corn. The clique controllinit the
provision pit pushed prices for hog products
up materially. Compared with last night
wheat show s aloss of Je aid corn yt Jc
Theie was a good deal of talk of a Targe
export business in wheat at the seaboard,
but as nearly all the earlier canles were
easier, this was received with a good deal of
caution and was off-et by the continued
heavy receipts. Private advices said that
400,000 bushels of wheat were engaged lor ex
port at 'New Yoik yesterday, and 800,000
bushels at outports, but this was regarded
by many as unreliable as the report which
was put into calculation about the same
time that Paris was really .buying wheat
here. But as the receipt at primary points
were heavy 500,000 bushels more than a year
azo and the small deliveries in the North
west wei e accounted for by a break on the
principal railroad, the feeling srton became
weak and realizing was generaL It is
doubtful if the selling forces would have
prevailed but for the midweek statement
wired Horn Li adstretCt giving an Increase in
the available stocks east of the Rockies of
4,743,000 bushels and an increase on the
Pacific coast of 9S9.000 busheR making a.
total lor the whole country of 5,732,000 bush
els, orabout 2,000.000 bushels mure increase
than shown in the visible supdy.
Tl'ere was a lare and well distributed
trade in coin. As a rule the bears were shy
about selling short for the near futuie. The
jnjrket opened at a fractional decline, the
continued Hne weather over the corn belt,
together with the Government weekly crop
report, which was construed as favorable,
having a weakening tendency. There was a
good demand, however, which appeared to
come trom new sources and the price, after
telling off slightly, advanced o, reaoted
J4c changed some and closed at bottom
prices.
A lair scalping business was carried on In
oats, with options closing trom g to Je
lower in sympathy with the weakness of
corn.
Tne provision trade acted somewhat us if
tbere were throe deals going In pork, lard
and ribs instead of the one deal in rib.
Lard was again vei y stt ong, and was mat ked
upl2c for both October and January for
tho day. Pork showed over 30o advance for
October at the best point, with January up
about 15c at the close.

BEADING AND P. B. K.'S AUGUST FIGUEES
"Wednesday, Sept 28.
A radical change came over the spirit of
the local stock market to-day. Tbere was
no uncertainty or lethargy apparent in any
direction. On the contrary, all was buoy
ancy and activity. Orders to buy met one"
at every turn, aud they appeared to be un
limited as to size. It was as if all who had
been holding off in doubt had suddenly
rushed to their brokers and cried, after the
manner of Lady Macbeth, stop not upon
the order of buying but buy at once. Be
sides activity and buoyancy the market
also showed breadth, which was not alto
gether reflected in the trading, for there
was an eager inquiry for some
of the shares which did not
figure in "the day's business.
Strength in the stocks with an Eastern
market, together with some fresh bullish
talk on them, may be credited with a portion
o' the responsibility lor the day's move
ments; but so :ar as could be learned there
were no fresh additions to the bases for a
generally strong and active market In
deed, none wero necessary. Conditions and
influences have long been favorable and
stimulating, and, with a few exceptions,
prices have mled too low. It was only a
question of a little time until such condi
tions and influences were pioperly re
sponded to. The movement to-day may
have been the beginning of such a response,
but if so it camo a little in advance of ex
pectations, as it was not generally looked
for until after the turn of the month.
Features of tho Market.
Philadelphia Company was most promi
nent for activity, iurnishing over half the
total business of the day, and it was also
conspicuous for strength. Opening at 22
sales, It advanced to 22 sales and closed
strong at 2222JJ. At the noon board 6"0
shares changed hands at 22 in one lot, tho
largest single block of the stock over sold on
the Exchange, but it was Intimated that the
seller immediately bought in 300 shares at
the same price. The principal buyoi s claimed
that operations were mainly for home
account, but It was reliably stated that New
York had buying orders in the market. The
success of the company's operations m the
Elizabeth field, noted in thee columns, was
not without effect, and there was also talk
to the effect that tho well clue to-dnyontho
Aronson farm, in the Pin hook field, had
come in big.
Next in activity and strength was West
inghouse Electric second preferred. First
sales were at 33, and the closing transac
tions were at 3jjJ. The strength came en
tirely trom the East. Sales in Boston oc
curied atS9j, and the closing hid on tho
New Vol k stock Exchange was 39Ji. At the
close the stock looked as if it might go a
little higher, but purchases at current prices
cany the risk of a blgre.tction. Speculators
aio in contiol oi the tnaiket.
The unaudited stock sympathized with
the second pieferred, being bid up to 24,
which was bid after the close for 100 shares.
J., A. & M. traction scored nn advance,
two small lots selling at 4i44U, which
were the closing quotations. P. & R. trac
tion seemed to be a littie firmer at 26 sales
and a closo at 25J26: Duquesno traction
was also fractionally better; Citizens trac
tion was higher at 63G. and Central trac
tion improt ed an eighth over the closing bid
of tho previous day.
PeopVs' Pipeage sold at 15, closing at
1515fc P. & B. traction 5s sold at 102.
and Masonic Bankut 67.
Underground Cable was higher and others
were about unchanged. At one tiuiM dur
ing the day 33 w as bid for Union Switch and
signal pre errca, but the cios.ng quotations
weie3240.
In the hank list the only noteworthy feat
ure was furnished by Fidelity Title and
Trust Company, which was offered down to
123.

Chicago Street Railway Stocks.
Mr. Terkes has returned from Europe and
insidets have started another upward move
ment in West and North Chicago street l ail
ways. The outside public is "not In It," but
they doubtless will be as soon as prices have
had a substantial advance. The public can
never be induced to take hold until prices
are pretty near the top. When the top Is
about reached they aie sure to be eager bur
ets, and that Is always the time that Insiders
are unloading their stock on tho "lambs."
This la the old-time practice, but It always
works to a charm, and the great public is
Just as gullible as If the scheme had never
been worked before. Baron Xerkes talks
freely about the street railways,
aud he claims that tbere is no
prospect of any consolidation of the differ
ent railway lines or any new issue of stock.
According to Mr. Yerkesthe street railways
are doing a larger business than ever be
loie. and this statement is true. He also
claims that the Philadelphia clique are buy
ing shales simply because they are regarded
as first-class in esttnents. The present out
look pioniises higher prices, but the clique
will piobably sell considerable stock on the
advances, and this may he expected to
cause a break. In short, a scalp. ng market
is generally looked for, and It is net tho part
of prudence to trade on margins, as fluctu
ations are likely to be very large. Those
who buy lor cash and lock their shares up
will, in all probability, make handsome
profits If they hold thorn long enough, but
margin operators are likely to come to grief.

A BRIGHT OUTLOOK
For the Itemalnder of the Year In Local
Mercantile Lines The General Drift of
Prices Upward Breadstuffs Firmer and
More Active.
Wednesday, Sept 28.
The distribution of general merchandise
from this point continues on a fairly liberal
scale and merchants say the demand is
steadily increasing. Drummers who have
returned from their routes of late note an
excellent condition of afiairs throughout
their territory and predict a big trade for
the balance oi the vear. Business will
likely slow up a little from now on until
after the turn oi the month and the quar
terly settlements, but the outlook for the
final quarter of the vear Is admitted on all
hands to be unusually bright. As a rule the
maikets are firm, with the general tendency
ot prices upward.
Wheat is firmer, oats a shade higher, corn
lower and hay very firm. Flour is In better
demand and firmer, but prices remain un
changed. Dairy products are strong, with the ten
dency of cheese upward; eggs are a little un
settled, the extremes of prions being 1821c;
apples and potatoes are firmly held: vegeta
bles are goo I stook; groceries are strong,
with an early advance In coifee probable;
provisions aio dull and heavy; fish are tend
ing upward; beans are higher; chestnuts are
lower; poultry is In better demand; tallow
and beeswax are stronger and oils are show
ing an advancing tendency.
Wagon hay is ruling unususlly high. Sales
have been made recently at $20.
