New York, June 1S.-Thc stock market
to-day,as measured by the number Of shares
bought and sold, was not more active than
yesterday, but there was much better sup
ply Of rumors and greater interest was
taken in the transactions. The leading
features In to-day's market may be said
to be the strength of the Vanderbllts
and the weakness Of Lackawanna.
AT the opening this morning the market
was weak, and prices yielded from TO
per cent, led by Union Pacific, Pacific Mail,
and New York Central, while Lackawanna
declined per cent, The lowest prices of
the day were made at this time. Between
ii and l2 o'clock there was a rally of to IA
per cent, the strongest stocks being Lake
Shore, which advanced II per cent, New
York Central and Lackawanna each 4, and
Union Pacific and New Jersey Central each
/. The market closed steady at little be-
low the best prices Of the day. To this rule
Lackawanna was an exception by declining
per cent. before o'clock, but It rcgained
most Of the loss In the last hour.
Money on call continues easy at | to II
per cent, closing at IL. Foreign exchange
Is quiet at unchanged quotations. Govern
ment bonds have been inactive and weak,
quotations showing decline Of to II per
cent-the heaviest declines being In the 3s
and as. State bonds have been quiet with
quotations generally strong. Arkansas Is
are up per cent. IN the price bid.

American Mails to New Zealand.

NEW YORK. Aug 1S.-A communication,
under date of July q, was to-day received by
the Maritime Exchange from its Auckland CORE
spondent. He states that within the week
current with date, debate would occur in the
House Of Representatives as to the continuance
of the present Gala mail service from New Zea-
land. The writer states that the government
intended to apply for sum of $50 900 per
annum as subsidy on new contract to be made
in November. Opposition was expected from
legislatures interested in the London service to
which channel they were working to have the
money diverted. The Maritime Exchange cor
respondent expresses the belief that American
shipping interests in New Zealand hinged on the
issues of this contest.
