The transactions in it were on an enor- mous scale, aggregating 71,000 shares in the first few minutes. The dealings were attended with considerable excitement. The first prices were generally slightly higher, but New England was very strong and advanced from 56 to 59 in a few minutes. Its strength did not last long, . however. The buying movement in the stock soon gave way to a brisk selling, and its price declined as rapidly as it had advanced. It fell to 54 before the downward movement could be checked, and later rallied to 55, when it became comparatively quiet and other stocks came to the front. Lake Shore advanced 1%, N orth- west llé and New York Central 1 per cent. Burlington, Rock Island, Canada Southern. St. Paul, Northwestern and Eric were also active. The best prices were generally touched just be- fore 11 o‘clock. In the hour to noon trading fell off materially, though some of the leading stocks continued to display considerable activ- ity. The fluctuations in most cases were insig- a nificant. New England rallied .from 51 to 55%. Sugar, on the other hand. became weak, and fell from_87}é to 86%. At noon the market was very dull, with prices generally yét'o 1% per cent. higher. At the close the market was dull. The sales amounted to 327,400 shares by mid- day. Closing prices: West.
