AA'all street spent a very dull day today nnd took great comfort tlu-rcfiom ns a great relief from tho painful activities of last week. Tho fact that tho Slock cxchal ges In London nnd In Germany were closed had an Inllu enco towards dulness, In view of tho great Importance attached to the course of events nt those centers. Tho London market particularly tflll bo eagerly scanned tomorrow to get nn Idea of Iho progress of tho settlement, which has caused gravo anxiety. Tho strength shown by International stocks In this market was an Indication of contlelcnco In a quiet settlement In London. Tho Loudon mnrkct for Americans has bo como so narrow and is so subject to manipulation by tho cable that tho quota-' tlons In other departments of tho mar ket there will bo awaited bcfoio conclu sions nio drawn. Tho sterling exchange rate In Now York was without quotable chango and tomorrow's steamers take only n single shipment of gold, amount ing to $500,000. Tho sterling exchange rate in I'arjs reacted fully 3Vs centimes, Indi cating a notnblo relaxation In the Lon don pressuro on that center. Hero tho money rate ruled easy all day nt from 2'4 to li per cent. These vnrlous Indications awoken some confidence that the stress of the preparations for iho January 1 disbursements of dividends and Interest Is past. The depositing of the interim! revcntio payments in banks here con tinues, and tho courso of Interior ex change Is In favor of Now York. The quiet course of events In Boston today was also viewed with much satisfaction from AVall street. The consequonco was a market which illpplnK'd many examples of marked strength, ulthough tho deal ings were very dull throughout. That the demand was considerably made up from the short Interest was evident from tho largo gains shown In stocks which have been recently sufferers from bear manip ulation. There was some professional bidding up of prices In oppobltlon to tho bears and there was an appreciable de mand through commission houses. Tho higher rnngo of prices did not bring any sovere pressure of liquidation, giving fall grounds for conlldcnco that tot cod liqui dation Is at nn end. Tlie marKOt nt in tervals was stagnant but tho close was strong though very dull. A number of tpeclalties showed gains ranging fium 1 to 4 points and many railroads nro a point hluher. Total sales. 417,100 shares. IJomls were Irregular, speculative Issues ad vancing and borne less conspicuous mort gages showing sharp reactions.
