Wednesday, Dec. 22.
The comparatively slight speculative Interest
reflected In to-day's stock market centred In
Manhattan Railway, Metropolitan Street Rail
way, and the anthrsclto coal stocks. Tho net
advances of moro tban 2 points In each of
the local railway shares was explained
by the territorial agreement reached between
tho Metropolitan and tho Third Avenue Railroad
companies. On light transactions, yet moro ex
tensive than have been recorded for a long
time, Third Avonue Railroad stock enjoyed
a net advance of 0 points. Tho adjustment
of the differences between the two sur
face road systoms is obviously of great
advantago to both of them. Tho advance In
the shares of the nntliraclto coal carrying
companies has a substantial foundation in the
determination of the managers of thoso com
panies to conserve their business by conducting
It in a sensible and harmonious way, though not
through tho medium of a Joint or central
selling agency, as reported In a nurab-r
of sensational newspapers this morning.
Tbo Improvement in the anthraclto group
includod Dclawaro and Hudson and Sus
quehanna and W'estorn preferred. Tho
declaration of tho usual dividends by tbo
Vnnderbllt companies, on fairly good showings
for the year, following the list of dividends de
clared yesterday, had a good effect upon spocu
lativo sentiment. Tho market, however, con
tinued dull, for reasons that have boen adverted
to in this column during the last two
days. A further decline in tho rates
of foreign oxchango and absence) of Indications
of uncomfortablo activity In the money market
strengthened the general situation. Confldonce
in tho f uturo of the market for railway securi
ties would doubtless be increased If the trunk
lines and other transportation companies repre
sented in tho Central Traffic Association would
devise somo plan for maintaining rates or live
up to the ogrcements which apparently are
made only to be broken. The closing of the
stook market was In tho main stiong at about
tho best prlcos.
