terday. Stocks opened rather Irregular
on London soiling and further offerings
by professionals who have apparently
been deluded by the sensational re
ports of serious damage to the crops.
The strength of the sterling exchange
market, peihaps the result of manipu
lation, alao encouraged the reaction
ists!. The must serious decline during
the early hours was In Northern Paci
fic preferred, which dropped 2 to 19. A
break In wheat however, made the bears
on stock feel less secure of their posi
tion, and after midday there was n
sternly demand to cover short contracts.
This buying led to an advance of al
per cent. In the improvement the
sto.ks nw.: conspicuous were sugar,
the anthracite coalers, the grangers,
Missouri Pucitlc, Louisville ami Nash
ville. Manhattan. Southern Pacific, Ten
nessee Coal and Iron, and the Wabash.
Speculation closed strong with an td-
vanclng tendency. Net changes show
gains of VialVi per cent, in the usually
active list.
