New York, Sept. 5. Uniform ad

not prevent a thoroughly mixed tone
In the active speculative dealings In
stocks at the opening here today. The
Harriman Pacifies, St. Paul, Pennsyl

favorites showed small fractional
gains, but there was a long list of de
clines as well. Northwestern . and
American Ice rose about a point and
Denver & Rio Grande and Sugar large
fractions. Northern Pacific, Baltimore
& Ohio, Chesapeake & Ohio and Nat
ional Biscuit declined 5-8 to 3-4.
tinder the stimulus of, a good de
mand for Heading and Atchison, the
market shook off itH uncertain move
ment and began to rise. Stocks that
hail been depressed recovered, and the
list in general sold a good fraction
above yesterday's closing. Atchison
rose a point, Reading 1 5-S, and Great
Northern preferred 1 3-4. Near 11
o'clock when operations commenced in
call loans with 17 per cent, bid, prices
weakened and there was a sharp de
cline to well below the first prices.
Great Northern preferred, Northern
Pacific, Smelting and Consolidated Gas
yielded 2 points under last night, Balti
more & Ohio and Lead 1 1-2, St. Paul,
Union Pacific. Brooklyn Transit, and
Hide and Leather preferred 11-4 to

Pennsylvania and United States Steel
preferred t. Selling pressure than
relaxed and there was some recov
ery. Smslting rallied 2 3-4 and
Union Pacific, New York Central and
Brooklyn Transit a point. The mar
ket became dull and uncertain at
the rally. Bonds were easy at noon.
A good rally set in after twelve
o'clock on humors of gold engage
ments, Smalting, which had been
notubly weak earlier, was lifted to
154. a gani of 24. Atchison re
bounded to 10S and St. Louis South
western preferred also improved a
point. Other stocks reached yester
day's closing figures or above. Realizing--caused
some Irregularity later,
Smelting receding 1.
Selected stocks were taken up for
an advance, but the general list did
not respond greatly. Buying through
out was contrasted by the stringent
money conditions. Great Northern
preferred gained 2 and Union Pa
cific, New York Central, Amalga
mated Copper 1 to 1.
Humors of coming relief of the
money situation by action of the
treasury department kept up the
market. There was only a moment
ary dip in prices when call money
flurried to 40 per cent. The subse
quent level reached the highest ot
the day. Union Pacific, Amalga
mated Copper and Pacific Mail rose
2 to 2 ft over last night. The move
ment otherwise was moderate and
thera was some selling in the final
dealings, but the closing was about
steady and near the top.
