New York Stock Market. NEW YORK, Aug. 25.—To-day's stock mar- ket revealed a very determined demonstration for an advance, but effective operations were confined to a very lmited number of stocks. The speculation was clearly under the same auspices as that which originated in Southern Pacific last week and which was predicted upon. the return to the street of a well-known speculative leader. The boldness and the dash of #o-day’s operations were indicative of the personal direction ‘of this leader. The eariy avapce in Southern Pacific was taken ad- Nantage of ‘to effect very heavy profit-taking, which completely wiped out the opening gains. Instead of resuming the campaign Immediately that stock 1t was shifted to its uffiliated stock, Union Pacific, and to Baltimore and Ohio in the East. The sympathetic response of these movements was almost wholly con- fined to stocks immeiately related. In the case of Baltimore and Ohio these were Penn- yIvénia and Chesapeake and Ohio. Southern Vacific made some recovery in sympathy with nion Pactfic. There were gaine here and \Here among the grangers, but on very light ansgetions. Northwestern's 2%-point rise in nsé 1o the favorable annual report whs on a single transaction. Minneapolis, Faul ana Sault Ste. Marle advanced vio- 15 5% ama Evansville and Terre Haute sained 3% without explapation . In the rali- 5ad distriet other gains were few and among Lscure stocks. The express stocks again made & notable advence in concert, with no | We 1o throw light on the movement. Among « speciaities Western Union, Manhattan and Tenpessee Coal were the most comspicuous ex- amples of strength. It Was a notable feature at & large mase of securities of Very prom- et railrosd companies Jay practically dor- ant throughout the session and there were prominen: examples showing net losses. This disinclination to follow the bold leadership proflered by the active stocks was due to the ¥ over the money situation.

The opening indicated a pos- slump offering of a small quan- tity of September on fairly good crop re- ports. Cables, however, were strong, the out- side markets, especially St. Louls, were higher on rain reports from Iowa and heavy buying by prominent elevator Interests followed. The market gained strength rapldly on_ the con- tinued ‘small receipts and poor grading, only to lose part of the advance again as soon as the longs wanted to take a little profit. Stocks of corn here have decreased rapidly during the past week until to-day they were only 2, 000 bushels on hand. The general gossip was that if any of the big shorts started to cover their lines with this, prices would jump. Natural ly following such a condition the market ne; vously responded to every bid or sale, resul ing in an erratic market. September closed strong, 1%c up, at 60kc. ‘Wheat was only falrly active at odd mo- ments. Cables were lower and the weather northwest was favorable. The crowd was in- clined to ignore almost entirely conditions- in the spring harvest belt, but the very poor grading prevented them from selling much. September was hard to buy and was taken freenly whenever offered. advance, however, showed _good strength and the cash demand was reported improved. Later the northwest bought fairly, and then on excellent seaboard clearances prices made gains, Outside markets showed a better tone, the southwest had & g00d sample trade, and Duluth sold for ex- September started 3¢ lower to %o up at laie, and after selling at 193 olosed strong %@7%c higher at T2%@72%c.

Potatoes, Onions and Vegetables. The Southern Pacific Railroad announces a rate of 5SSc on Potatoes from California to Texas, the rate up to the present time having been 75c. The market was rather firmer yes- terday in consequence, though Kansas can ship to Texas about as cheap as California, even at the reduced rate. A car of Sweets came in from Me Receipts of Onfons were large, but as there ‘was a steady Inquiry for shipping, prices were sustained. Owing to the scarclty of good stock, Green Corn was higher and prices had a wider range. Tomatoes weakenied under heavy sup- plies of inferfor stock. Some fancy brands commanded & premium over the quotations. Other vegetables were plentiful and easy.

Fancy But- ter continued M light supply, with some spe- cial brands selling above the quotations, while the medium and lower grades were inclined to | drag. Eggs were in larger receipt, but steady, | and dealers reported the demand nothing ex- tra. Buyers are running largely on Eastern Eggs, which renders common domestic stock more' or less dull. Cheese is the firmest de- scription on the ifst, supplies belng moderate and the demand very fair. Receints were 47500 Ibs Butter, 708 cases BEggs and 45,300 Ibs Cheese.

Changes under this head were slight. All descriptions were In free supply and although the demand was steady, the market was far from belng cleaned up. The canners offered $10 for Cling Peaches, $15 for Pears and $6- for Green Gage and Egg Plums. But as they want- d mothing but the best at these prices, sales ‘were few. There are very few Apricots com- ing in now and what few are received sell slowly. White Nectarines are running very poor.” " Cholce offerings would sell readily at better prices.
