GOVERNMENTS. STOCKS AND BONDS.
NEW YORK, June IL The waiting attitude of
operators on both sides of the market again re-
suited in maxim intensely dull stock market
to-day, which possessed even less feature than
that OF yesterday. The only real feature was
the weakness in Oregon Transcontinental,
owing TO the disfaVor with which irregular divi-
dends to stoclho ders has been received. The
friends of the management, however, say senti-
ment will not be far-reaching, and as the merits
OF the scheme become known stock again ap-
preciates in value. Selling to-day was of the
same professional character as usual for the past
few days, and the decline is probably the feeling
of the market by bears. The news of the day
cOnta ned tie usual installment of advices of
rate cutting and disagreemerts in the
West, but these were fairly Offset BY re-
ports OF earnings and small progress
made toward complete harmony among
roads in that section Of the country. The open
ing was lower, ana continued TO decline, and
until the last hour there slow grading of
values which, however. only in Oregon Trans
continental reached anything of Importance.
Shorts went into cover late in the day, reports
Of progress in making the silver bill helping the 4
sdyance, and trusts were specially strong; The
1lose was dull but firm but still st small frsc-
Ral Ssse BONDS md SV were Also active
