THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Nov. 17. The stock markot
presented few. If any, marked character
istics today. Tho opening was decidedly
irregular, but gave away to a better foul
ing botoro tho end of tho fiist hour, when
it became evident that certain vague ru
mors of "Trouble" were unfounded The
leaturo of the early tiadlns as woll 03
of the entire day was Manhattan, which
was exceptionally strong and active, mak
ing a maximum and net galu of over 3
points on transactions that more than ex
ceeded onc-tlfth of the day's total oper
ations. Tho rise In this stock which was
bought openly in big blocks by brokers
who usually lepresent Gould interests,
revived the old story that Manhattan Is to
be taken over by the New York Central
on a guaranteed dividend. No conllrma
tion ot this was obtainable nor did any
great amount of credence attach to it.
Tho other tiactions were fairly strong In
sympathy, Metropolitan on very light
tiansactlons gaining over a point with
a fractional advance In Brooklyn Tran
sit. Considerable attention was drawn to
St. Paul by icason of Its rather irregular
movements and the stock closed with a
slight loss. New York Central which
made an early gain of Hi lost much of
Its advance and Baltimoro and Ohio fell
over a nolnt fiom tho ton in suite of Its
good showing In earnings for tho tlscal
year. Other netivo railway Issues that
displayed heaviness included the Pacific
gioup, tho pressure against Union TacUlc
nt ono time being very marked. In the
special class, Colorado Fuel, United States
Steel, American Smelting, Sugar and a
fe wothers were steady. Sugar making a
material net gain. For tho most part,
however, changes were unimportant, early
session wero narrow, traders showing a.
disposition to await developments In the
local financial situation. The declino of
3! points in Geneial Electric resulted
from reports of labor troubles nt the com
pany's works at Schenectady. Profit tak
ing in tho InRt hour brought recessions to
a number of active Issues and while tho
market rallied tho closing was Irregulat.
The question of increased railway wages
continued to be ti matter of serious dis
cussion ns well as the congestion of
freight traffic on the leading loads and
it is becoming cleat er dally that the ca
pacity of practically every trunk road
will be taxed to tho utmost. Total sales,
701,300 shares. Ronds wero li regular on a
small range. Total sales, par value, $2,
wo.000. United States old -Is declined U
per cent on tho last call.
