GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
NEW YORK, July 3.-The stock market
to-day was feverish and weak, especially
in the first hours. and although there
were material rallies the losses were in
few instances recovered, and the result
of the davis operations is to leave prices
for a majority of the list materially
lower than last evening. The liquidation
of long accounts was in order, and the
bearish feeling extended to the entire
list although Changers were the central
Doint of attack, and Rock Island, Bur-
iiugtOn and St. Paul have the brunt of
the swing. The greatest impression was
made on Rock Island which dropped 3
Der cent. in the first few minutes with
burlington and Northwestern following,
each of which lost over l per cent. in
that time.
Trusts moved up sharply in the last
hour, but toward the close everything
Welded again and the close was quiet.
Railroad bonds were quiet. The mar
ket was rather heavy with slight fluctua-
tions, and important changes are few in
number with declines rather more num-
erous.
Government bonds dull and steady.
State bonds dull and featureless.
THE MANCHESTER MARKET.
MANCHESTER, July 3.-The Guardian,
in its commercial article, says:
A distinct Improvement is not mani
tested. The demand Is slow, prices are
fairly steady and the Eastern demand is
poor. A few important orders have been
executed There is much stock on the
hands of native distributors. Produc-
ton is iessening in Blackburn and OAR
win districts. Demands for minor
foreign markets, especially South Amer
lea, is fairly steady. Approved makes
are moving at full prices. Buyers for
the home market are purchasing care
fully. The demand for bundled yarns
for the East is poor. Only those who ac-
cept low rates are doing much. There is
q small demand for continental at previ-
Ous prices The demand for most kinds
Lof cloths is moderate. Buyers appear to
Xe nursing orders in hope of commanding
easier prices. They are paying full rates
for their actual requirements. India
shiTtings are steady. Plain and fancy
finishing cloths and heavy goods are firm.
