Speculation In tlr. has made little change and buyers of copnoruro so slow that 11 * cents is quoted , while lead Is a shade lower. Iron ml'ls ' ut Plttsburg will soon resume , but at present , shipments of coke are the smallest for some time and business in win dow glass Is nut activo. At Cincinnati trndo Is quiet , but prospects fine and withdrawals of whisky are unusually heavy. Fair activity is soon at Cleveland with a heavy trade and rolled iron products very active and firm.

Labor UInturlmucos Attracting Attention | In New York Muricctfl. NEW Yortic , Aug. 19. B rails t roots says of the Now York stock market : Labor dis turbances assumed for a time a commanding position in the speculative share market of the present week. Tbo troubles at UuiTalo , Involving the Interruption of traDlc upon the trunk lines at that imoortant center and a threatened Jtoppacro of business of great cor porations'naturally ! tondoj to create hesita tion and uncertainty In speculative interests. Those influences were more or loss effective during tha entire week , so far as the railway sbnro list Is concerned. Crop news was on the whole fnvomblo , but tbo granger roads shared witlr the trunk lines In their speculative uncnrtalnty and the whole Interest of the market centered in the industrial croup. In tbo latter connec tion it need only bo said that the bullish manipulators continued to show thelraollvity and skill with HtUo Interruption. Sugar , cordage , load and their companions have advanced steadily , the llrst named slock completely fulfilling the prediction that It would cross 110. Successful as the movement has been , It continues to cro.xto n feeling that this must necessarily result In a reaction , oven if it docs not turn out that the Insiders have un loaded upon the street during the advance. Notwithstanding such npprobonslons tbo close of the week llndn tbo market under the Influence of the Improvement In Industrial sharusto un extent which nullities the influ ence of other unfavorable factors in the cou- ernl apoculatlvo situation. It may be said that Wall street has dis covered the policy of bearish operations based upon labor disturbances. Disquieting as the latter are , their effects are loss severe - voro than might bo expected and. though a section of the room traders were ready to turn tholiuffiilo disturbances nnd tbo calf for military n-islsliinca to tbolr own advantage , their success , sitvo In a brief Interval - torval on Wednesday last , was hut sllslit. The fact that the decline of silver was apparently arrested early In the wee if and that a llrmor leelltig manifested In the market was not without influence. The exaggerated apprehension , iu regard to the stability of American finances which have taken possession of n certain seu'.lon of the foreign financial world failed to uftcct the course of ovcnts on Jhis side of the ocean. This A'ui particularly observable on Thursday , when what appeared to bo un- founuon reports of the falluro of a London bank doing business in the cast sufllced to renew the dspross'on in silver.
