Show V NEW TOSK HAMLET LOWES NEW YORK. Feb. 4. Todar market mar-ket opened somewhtt lower following irregular London quotations. Though trading was oh a very moderate scale, prices continue to sag during the forenoon, fore-noon, and weakness was seen at times in such stocks as Reading, Peansvlva-nia Peansvlva-nia Smelters and St. Paul. After the noon hour the market hardened somewhat some-what and prices were up to ahout the level of Saturday's close, but trnnsae tions represented merely the swapping of contracts between professionals, and dullness was the feature. In the last ten minutes of the trading a small 1 1 ing movement took place, in which Erie stock showed considerable weakness. The close was onlv moderately active. |
