8 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL The Stock Market Its Variations. MONEY ABUNDANT. and Gold, Government and Railroad Se- WALL STREET, Moxpay” dat. 26-0 BP, MY The tendency of the swck speculation to-day, »@xcept with reference to one or two securities which have suddenly obeyed what are alleged to be “natural causes of improvement,” as, for in- stance, Michigan Central and Delaware and Lacka- ‘Wanna, 1s not encouraging. A yieldmg movement {s observable. Even in the face of the promises of St. Paul with reference to a dividend some time ‘this week that stock has dropped more than one per cent. Nor are other fancy shares oveying with their usual sympathy and promptness the 1 gna of immediate strength. Impetus is evidently wanting. The manipulators are not on hand. Tbe banks are full of money; call loans can be made on excellent terms, but somehow the favorite stocks, which only a tew days ago sect all the street wild with expectation, refuse to stir. ‘The condition illustrates the doubt which we have often described, To illustrate:—Western Union opened at 76%, moved to 77, receded to 76% and closed at 76% 076%. Pacific Mail was the object of much rumor, but showed little change, rang- ing from 413; a 4134 to 4134 u 414) a 413; at che close, New York Central began work at 103%, sold up to 203%, down to 103% and closed at the opening price, St. Paul moved downward from 48 to 46%, wecovered to 474 and closed at 47% ; the preferred stock sold at 72%. Union Pacitic sold at 3514 a 35%, @eclined to 34, but at the end was again steady at 85% 835%. Lake Shore started at 82, advanced to 82% a 825; a 82%, with considerable Nuctuation be- | ‘ween these figures, and finished at s2y. | As recently usual, this stock Was active ‘among the leading shares. Wabash declined from 54 to 53, subsequently moved to 54% and closed at 54. Ohio and Mississippi changed from 84% to 83%, but rallied w 34 a 34. C., C. andl. ©. was generally steady at 31% a31%, the close be- mg made at 31%. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western was more than usually speculative and advanced from 1027% to 104%, the interests of the coal strike having not a little to do with its move- ment. Michigan Central opened at 86%, but sud- denly developed a strength that carried it to 925, although the close was atl percentofm Harlem was steady at 125. Northwest common called for 60% a 6074 & 60% & 60%, a 60%; New Jersey Central, 101% a 102%; Hannibal and St. Joseph, 324 a 31%. GOLD to-day was generally steady, and unattended by much speculative demonstratiom, The opening ‘was at 11134, the highest price 111%, the lowest 121%, and the close at 111};. The carrying rates were 5, 4 and 6 per cent.
