Pollock & Co., 0 West Second South street, make public their Logan &. Bryan stock letter, under New York date of yesterday: yester-day: Tho market Is closing greatly Improved Im-proved In tone. The session has been marked by much Imgularlty. Many of the former favorites ruled dull and slightly lower, while other Issues camo to the front. Steel stocks, particularly United States and sinking fund securities, wero heavily bought nil through the session. ses-sion. These Issues nnd railway equipment equip-ment shares eontlnuo to be favorites. Atchison common, so long neglected, advanced ad-vanced about 2Vj points, being by far the leader among tho rails Money situation situa-tion unchanged. Some loans reported as low aa ZVz, but the ruling rato seems to be about 4 per cent. The volume of business busi-ness today shows a decided falling off, which Is but natural pending the holiday holi-day tomorrow. Tho action of the market mar-ket at the close Is qulto encouraging to bellovers In higher prices. The market certainly acts well and Hhows good support sup-port at all times. 1 Silver and Drafts.
