NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—Feople who came down to Wall street to-day expecting a d moralizing break in prices met with a surprise | as vigorous support was fortacoming from t most powerful financial interests in the coun- try and was steadily offered throughout t day. The market closed active and strong at the best prices of the day. Net gains of points were the general rule throughout the list, and the leadgrs exceeded this, Penn- | sylvania and Amalgamated and Union Pacific, Atchison Louisvilie, island, Metropolitan Street :tailway, B Transit and People's Gas from 3@3 pectation of the further sump to-day was found in the demoralized tore of Pennsylvan and the resulting unsettiemert of the wi last night. This influence was supple: by the further decline in Eritish consol day to a new low level. - As the course of this premier British security has kept pace with our own market on the down grade, reflecting the same condition of overestension of capital in certain lines, causing the ieceseity for d: tic liquidation elsewhere. the opening tone heie was gecidedly unsettled. The United Stat | Steel stocks made a further break, the con mon and preferred breaking through yest | day's new record. The majority of .openir changes was on the side of technes and there was some speclal pressure arainst New York Central. Yesterday's break in Pennsylvania having brought that 6 per cert stock down o & parity with the 5 per cent New York Cen- tral, the usual bear pressure under these cir- cumstances developed against the latter. But Pennsylvania’s opening rise of a point was the proclamation that other influnces were at Wwork. The buying of this stock was traceable to the banking house of Kuhn Loeb & which manages the company's fnancial opera- tions. The very heavy buying oriers in United | States Steel preferred were credited in a sim- {ilar way to J. P. Morgan & Co.. and it wus | confidently affirmed that the opin buying of Amalgamated Copper by brokers usually em- ployed by the Standard Oll pary might be accepted in good fgith as indicatirg the activ- ity on the buying side'of ihat perty. There has been an almost - superstitius feeling among the whole speculative contingent that the melting away of prices, which tad reached the point of & 1d not be checked until these s begwn to buy stocks largely and in concert. Convietion that this would happen had an electrical effect upon speculative sentiment and drove the bears to cover with a scramble. Some of the large bear speculators put out fresh short lines at differ- ent stages of; advance, in the confidence that ihe large -buying orders were designed simply to support the market, to be resoid upon any considerable advance. But there was no evidence of this reselling and the balief gained ground that the great banking inter- ests had definitely changed thelr recent policy opper rising 10 and biding the time when the fever of selling, which has taken hold of the security-holding public, should exhaust ftself.” Tt was evident at the same time that the urgent liquidation lacked the force which carrled down prices in recent markets. As a result there was a murked revival of confidence and dissipation of many of the shadowy fears which have in- fected the speculative mind of late with even greater effect than actual developments. The news of the day, of which there was little bearing on values, was not a factor at all in the movement of prices. The bond market became firm, in sympathy with the recovery in stocks. Total sales, par value, $4,850,000 United States 2s declined % on the last call. Hocking Val prd.. Tllinois Central .... 1,800 Jowa Central .
