MONDAY, July I'd 4. NJ
BY the strength of the stock market. as exhibited
this morning. it was evident that buyers at last
Thursdays prices were "holding their grip" SO to
speak. in spite of the and tear of mind which
are the accompaniments Of aprotracted holiday. As
matters turned out, to-day's market was taken up
where Thursdays market left of. and prices which
began to bud at the close of last weeks business
forced into flower at the opening of the present
one. Plainly speaking, there occurred at the open
ing this morning decided upward squirt. which not
only gave strength to, but created fractional i'm
provement in the entire list. Particularly
was this true of the grangers and Kansas
and Northern preferred. Later on there
check to the rise. prices became irreg-
ular, and the day closed with wabblo that
utterly disconcerting to the views of both bulls
and bears. There two stocks, however-namely.
Kansas and Northern preferred and Wabash-that
rose the day through and held the Improvement to
the end. Both owed their advance to reasons here
tofore given which point to consolidation OF in
terests of the roads in question and apostolic leasing
OF the Kansas and Northern to Union Pacific. The
grangers higher at the opening and lower at the
closing. Operators in these stocks upon the bear
side ready listeners to unfavorable reports which,
like young Lochinvar. may "come out of the West
and to-day their ears were full of them There are
plentiful reports of pounding rains scorching suns
believed by those who should best know is to be
found in the fact that parties closely connected
with the management of the granger roads
have been free buyers of these stocks. AS an item
OF interest to holders Of St. Paul shares it may be
stated that this corporation has decided to exchange
its bonds for the outstanding bonds of the
Western Union Railroad Company. 1t will be re-
membered that the City of Glasgow Bank at the
date of its explosion. held some $3.OOO.0O0 Of the
Western Union bonds part or its assets, and that
an attempt has beon made force the St. Paul road
TO father the under an implied guarantee. The
question appears to be happily settled by the action
Of the st. Paul company which offers to retire the
bonds in dispute substitute their own in their stead
and at the time pay the February past due
coupons in cash. With the exception Of the stocks
referred to the list stagnant and speculation
less "eroggy"-a condition by no means ex-
traordnary in view Of the extended holiday and its
patriotic and spiritual accompaniments.
The following table shows the extreme fuctua-
tions yesterday in the leading stocks:-
