' Stock Market Letters. James A. Pollock & Co.. stock nnd grain brokers, C "Wot Second South street, mnko public tho following letters on tho stock market: Logan & Bryan, 'New York, say: "Tho speculative spec-ulative situation has looked a llttlo unsound, wlih conservative traders hoping for lower prices. Wo etlll foel If there Is anything In the rumors of deals nnd combinations current cur-rent In tho rccont past, tho market will bo In all the better position nftcr a healthv reaction to bake odvnntago of udvnnce on their confirmation. Tho market, to us. still seems tired, with a dragging tendency." Marshall Spoiler & Co., New York, say: "Pressuro was mostly from commission-houses, as lias been tho enpo recently. Tho rally toward tho close In somo directions wns rather easily secured, nnd it Ib nearly safe to say that with u fair bank statement tomorrow and Improved foreign conditions, tho market may do bolter. Meantime this last Imluenco Is very noarly paramount, nnd 6hould be closely wutched. Wo aro not threatened with tight mono-, an tho time lonn market Is dull, from 3 to 214 per cent." Walker, Now York, pays: 'This reaction had been looked for for somo time, and was not unexpected Tho close was near tho lowest, but fairly steady. ' Dick. New York, pays: "Tho market was qulto strong In tho early trading lodny, thero being numerous sharp advnnces, chiefly In tractions nnd Industrial specialties. Later, however, tho leading railroad stocks wcakono I and broke sharply under heavy and aggressive aggres-sive selling, which was based upon fenrs of a bod bank statement and disturbing foreign advlcos, which, howover. wero not continued Tho market rallied from tho lowest In tho last ten minutes, but wns not particularly strong at tho closing. Speculatlvo Ilquldn lion and stop-loss-onlor executions) had much to do with tho brcuk and. thcro was also a grent deal of bear pounding." Hutlon, Now York, eays: "Tho heaviness in tho market today can bo attributed wholly to tho heavy loss of cash by banks this wcok. which, from present figures, wilt completely wipe out tho reserves. However, tho money situation will steadily Improve, beginning next week, and wo ndvlfo holding securities or taking profits on somo commitments before prices aro shown. In ordor to be In n position posi-tion to buy on any further dccllnp thnt might occur. The general position of railway nnd Industrials could not bo strongd and will be greatly cleared by tho liquidation of traders." Grain and Provisions. CHICAGO.
