CiAnpein luirnimn-. oiyiRr?. ? FINE THE MARKETS. Wall Street Review. New York, Oct. 19. The stock mnr kwet showed signs of continued strength during the early bourn of tho trading and the coveting movement among a large outstanding bear inter est continued In active force. Tho pro fessional opponents of the bears did all they could to take the market away from by bidding up prices, picking out Individual stocks for the purpose to Incrcnso the appearance of strength In tho market. As the demand from the bears fell off later In tho day tho fact began to emerge that there was no very eager demand for stocks among the public at large and prices began to slip downwards. Seeing the hesi tancy ot the advance tho bears took renewed courage and put out new short lines. The fall In prices wns consider ably accelerated during the last hour and the demand to cover at the decllno was sufficient to cause only a feeble dally. Tho losing was barely steady and tho earlier gains were practically nil wiped out. Tho fall In prices from the top level reached a point or over In a large number of prominent railroad stocks and in somo of the industrial specialties ranges from 1 to over 3 points. The railroads running through the southern region came Into some prominence lato In tho day on account of tho general activity and prosperity of business In that locality and tho relatively larger Increases In earnings shown by Its railroads. Illinois Cen tral, Loulvllle and Nashville, South ern Railway preferred, Norfolk and Western preferred, and Chesapeake and Ohio, nil showed benefit from this cause and the gains established were better maintained than at other points. Individual strength was shown also by Colorado and Southern first preferred, Tennessee Coal, the International Pa per stocks. Northern Pacific, the Hock ing Vnlley stocks, New York, Chicago and St. Louis first preferred, American Cur, American Linseed OH nnd Chicago Terminal. Pullman reacted shnrply after Its prolonged advance, receding an extreme 9 points and losing 4Vi net. Consolidated Gas fell 4M! but partly ro covered. The local traction stocks nnd Sugar were sharp sufferers In the lato weakness. Tho reaction was as much with explanation as yesterday's ad vance and could only bo attributed to the closing up of professional opera tions. Call money ruled at 5 per cent, for most of the day but stiffened to C per cent, before tho close. Total sales, 427,800 shares. There was a notable broadening In tho bond market, many quiescent Is sues coming into activity. Tho tone was generally strong. Total sales, par value, $2,120,000.
