M. “*You know you say ‘Things are much of a much- ‘Ress.’ Did you ever see such a thing asa ‘much. hess ?’" inquires the Dormouse of Alice in “Wonder- land.” If the Dormouso had put the query to the stock t board the whole mob o! brokers would have chorussed an affirmative answer, and have cited the unvarying stupidity of each day’s market as a proof of the fact. To-day was ‘‘much of a muchness’’ with the days ‘that have preceded it, and presented no more charac- teristic feature, there occurring the usual ebb and flow in the tiae of fluctuation, and an tpordinate Amount of slack water in the interval, The market, Opening with the effect of yesterday evenin; lus still hanging about it, quickly staggered up fraction, bat, as im the case of a good Samaritan who has been gitting up with a _ friend, it required successive ‘‘setting up,’? which it did not get, and consequently soon began to stagger down again, Luke Shore, as usaal, bore away the palm for animation and volume of dealings, and skipped about in a lively manner between the limits of 56 a 563g a 65%. On the upward turn advantage was taken of the Prevailing strength to sell out so many of the shares purchased yesterday under.the influence of the politi- cal canard asthe market would take, while the rest of it was bottled up for the next opportunity, # Appearance of Twonty-third street, with a moderate Amount of short stock, having knocked away the un- derplnning and rendered further saies at a profit truit- less, Michigan Central remained steady, in spite of the published comparative loss in earnings tor the tourth week of November of $13,558, while the St. Paul and Norilwestern stocks were the “Two Orphans” of the twurket, abandoned by friends, and not attractive enough to attract enemies. IMinois Central appears to be slowly shutting up upon itself like an old-fashioned spygiass, and on sales ofa few hundred shares collapsed trom 7134 to 683¢, The Twenty-third street lot feeling their way toa \mited amount of short contracts, based on something they know, or think they know, to the detriment of the tompany, and on the slim prospects ofanother dividend. There was nothing in the coal stocks to attract attention beyond some insignificant sales on the part of the Mills-Osborne coterie, and no reports, good, bad or indifferent, to affect values, A drop of 3g per cent in gold brought the price down to 108, which was bid at the close. A further with. drawal of £115,000 from the Bank of England to-day for shipment to this country laid another straw upon ‘he camel’e back and added to the heavy load already being carried. #ive per cent was paid for tho privi- lege of shifting the burden upon the shoulders of capitalists, while mixed securities in the stock board ‘were carried at rates varying from 4 to 234 per cent.
