Dullness was again the feature of the stock market to-day. From the opening to the ¢lose the market was about ra that of yesterday. Now and then spurt of activity, but this wa lowed by @ period of absolute stagnation when the tcker stood still for minutes at a time. The market was re: strong on very light business, and whe F any activity was shown prices vanced. There were several indicat that the local political pools had re- A business or were arranging to rt another upward moverent. Manhattan showed a sudden spurd in the afternoon, end there seemed to be fn urgent demand for about 30 As noon as this demand was s stock lost 7-8 point between sale: ‘There was somo heavy selling of Steal Preferrog, whiea !s thought to be for the long account, A large amount of this stock was bought at the low figures and the dullness has induced the pur- chasers to sell the stock for the mther mood profit, Steol bars were higher and Steel and wire products were $1 a ton higher.
