MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York. Sept. 14. The stock mar
ket was quiet and Irregular today. The
transactions were only 124,134 shares.
At the opening; a general advance of
C4 per cent, took place much to the
surprise of tho general run of operators
who were looking for a lower range on
account of Saturday's bank statement
and weak cables from London. A de
cline soon followed and tho market
ruled rather weak until late in tho af
ternoon when a general advance en
sued. The Improvement was not main
tained and in tho decline the Indust
rials; IntcrnationaJls, Munhuttan and
Western Union scored losses of ViV4
per cent. The weakness was due to a
belief that the Rank of England rate
of discount would be advanced on
Thursday and also to the big dry goods
failure In Philadelphia and the increas
ed nctlvlty on the part of the bears.
Subsequently the losses reported were
regained and there was some buying
In certain quarters on the belief of a
big Round money victory In Maine. To
ward the close the entire list weakened
on selling for both accounts and the
market left off barely steady. Net
changes show losses of yi$f per cent,
outside of Northern Pacific Preferred,
Northwest and Manhuttan which
gained t&M per cent. Tobacco how
ever, lost 1 per cent.
