THE PRICES SUPPED BACK
Below Level of Monday ': Night
Before' Closing, Which Was
Barely Steady. ..., ;
(By Acs?claU'tl Press,) j' '
NEW XORK, Dec. l0,~Excopt tor.-.tli?
considerable volutilo of dealings in' ???
or two stocks, to-day's market waudull
nntl at times practically idle, Tho occa-'
elonfti peti?ds of activity were buylns
movements for the first part of tliOftyV
but pricoB Bllppocl' tKick to bolowf.-l?et
?ilght'B level before tho closing;" and trie
closing Itsolf was . barely stcudy.'
During "tho early periods of <lullilft?.i,
holder? of stocks' seemed content to aWalt
the demand, unti thero was no pressure
of offerings When buyers paused In lliclr
operation?.
Amalgamated Coppor'led tho market in
peint of uciiv.ty und was lifted 1 1-n nt.
ino top level. Even United Biates Steel
preferred had some share in tho curly,
strength of the marliot, and the urgent
r.oiroivltlg demand for tlie stock for de?
livery pointed to the necessities Of a short
interest. The announcement of. the .ex?
tensive economics contemplated by- tho
company wore accepted as promising a'oJl
tor thu not earnings of tho corporation.
The Into reaction in the market, -nowavur,
-tenteiod In tins stock, nnd its drop io
over a point bctow lost night's price upset
Uie whole list and wiped out the days
gams,
The report of tho passing of the divi?
dend on Cruicblo Steel preferred was an
inlluence on the stock, although that com.
puny Is rooo?iu?od as tho victim ' of
troubles peculiar to Itself. The consider?
able decrease In net carn.ngs reportoJ:'??y
Jiiiitlinui e and Ohio for Novembor waa un
fiinucnce on the sido "of reaction, which
was supplemented by icports of an Intuivi.
ecl reduction in thu prices of soft coal.
The speculativo element seemed to huvo
put aside tiny misgiving? over tho Nortn
crn Securities cuse. Sterling cxch;th_o
developed a very strong tono on a strong
demand .for blue; which was partly ni?
tri buiaolo to tne need to cover engage?
ments of gold in 'l?ndon tor Import.
With aj? Increase. In valuo of exports over
last year of ?j?.0??j,(>/j and a decrease m
value of Imports of ?IO.Oai.OOO, the 'powvr.
lui control of the international oxchar>ees
in favor of Now York is made clear... .

o? Greene, offered a bill, allowing cer?.
tain pictures and statuury of tho Univer?
sity of Virginia to be sent to St. Louis

Arrangements aro fast making In every
dlroctlon to have a showy and successful
Virginia exhibit on the part of Virginia,
and Indications aro that the maiertol
prosperity of tho State will be greatly
enhanced through the agonoy of the pro?
posed Exposition. The famous home of
Mr. Jefferson, which It Is proposed to te.
produco at St. Louis, ns tho Virginia build
irigu was commenced by the grout Vir?
ginian In 17(51 and completed in 1771. Mr.
