For the first time since Tuesday of last week, the Stock exchange witnessed a sub stantial and general recovery. Every one ot the business days between the two dates had been marked bv a downward tendency of prices and by more or less numerous points ot special weakness, and manv impor tant shares, both industrial and rail way, had fallen 10 points or mor during that period, on top of th.e ex tensive declines which had preceded it On the face of things, therefore, today's recovery need have caused no surprise, even when the buying came largely, as it did, from previous ispeciilarors for the decline. Whatever the course of the Market is to be in the next few. days, the significance of today's ' revery, which ranged between 2 and 6 points in a very jonsiderableimrnber ' stocks, was'prof that the actual de mand for stocks was not connjer halanced in its efect on prices, either by forced liquidation ipr tv fresh sales of ' professional v speculators. " 'Move Slalnly I'pward. i- The market moxed In one direction practically all. day. It opened with over. rlr:ht advances- nnd closed around the hlhost, after a total trading which again, for the third succetajve day.- went beyond , An,wAnn uv.nrra with the number ci set- utetl between the indujtrla, and railway share r, T$?rovery helrg, as a rule, pro.
