Aaaaal Resvarts mt Harrttaaa Lla Make shawlng Market Beeosaea Straag a ad Claae Highest af Day. NEW TORK. Aug. 17-Irrgularit aa the moat conspicuous featur of today a stock market. Prices rose and fell alter nately, mostly within narrow range, al though some of lha more active Issues reg istered substantial gains at the opening. The trading bore evidence of bear pressure and tnerai prnfeseionalism. although close observers expreseed the opinion that stocka are gradually passing Into stronger hands. This belief appears to be based iargly on the operations of certain prominent banking and brokerage house, as well as on the continued ease of money, further prospects of good crops and advices from the lead.ng railroad centers, which almost uniformly report indications of awakening business. At the moment, however, rt csnnot be said that traffic Is more than holding its own. but the trunk llns sre well supplied with cars and are making ready for ihe proa pectlve Improvement. yuite the most important development of the day In railroad circles was tne publi cstion of the snnual reports of the Harrl maa lines for the fiscal year. In both In stances the falllna off was la-rely due to Increased taxee, that item in the nion Pa- I ciftc statement being 17.o per cent greater than In 19f-07. and Southern Pacific S6 06 per cent greater. Both lines show material Jains In net earnings for the month of une. The pessimistic utterances of the Rock Island- Frisco svstem. dealing with general conditions. In which the statement was made that tonnO men are out of em ployment, excited some interest, hut did not have a serious effect. The receivership pro ceedings against the Pennsylvania Coal and Coke company served to call attention to the soft coal situation, but waa otherwise ignored. As a whole, the coalers held com paratively firm, thoiiarh Readlhg was fre quently subjected to ptf-'seure. Smelting led the industrial stocks. msKlnar s snarp re covery from Saturday's close, and the cop pers moved in svmpathy despite anoiurr cut In the price of the metal. The declara tion of a- M dividend, presumably ' for the quarter, thougn not so stated, by the Stanu ard Oil company of New Jerser. In place of a previous disbursement of 39. waa the only noteworthy feature of the Outside mil- ket. The eagarlea of a well known market manipulator from New England caused some uneaainesa In conservative quarters, but elsewhere they were the subject of good-natured ridicule. Much the greater part of the day a business was done in ine early session, trading becoming restricted In the afternoon, whiie the list developed a heaw undertone. In the last half, however, under the lead of St. Paul. Smelting and Reading, the market grew strong and the closing was active at the day's best prices. Trading for European account waa nom inal.. Our securities held well In London, with a sharp advance for Canadian Pacific on the crop news. The London market was absolutely unaffected bv the reported 3o't. UU0.00O loan to insure British naval suprem acy. Indeed, the only Interesting news from abroad waa contained In the semi-annual statements of the British banks, which failed to show the expected Increase of re serves. The most noteworthy feature of these exhibits was the heavy Increase In deposits, which was attributed to dull trade conditions. The local money market ruled steady and dull, with no chaiige in the rates for time accommodations and a very light demand for call loana at 1 per cent. Government bonds were unchanged on call.
