NEARLY ALL THE ACTIVITY ON THE
BULL SIDE OF THE MARKET.

| Strength the Leading Feature-No Attempt
to Force eSales-Airbrake and Philadel-
phia Gas Score Advances-Luster Lets
Go a Little-Tractions Neglected.
There was some activity in local stocks
yesterday, and it was nearly all on the bull
side, Luster being about the only exception.
1t closed "a below the openings natural
reaction from an artificial bulge. A full
statement of the condition of the plant is
promised by October. This may send it up
again.
Airbrake continued its upward move
ment, reaching SO bid at the last call, with
none offered. The declaration of an extra
dividend of per cent, after advancing the
regular one from Il to 16 per cent, shows
that the company is highly prosperous and
accounts for the advance.
Philadelphia Gas added q to its credit,
and was in good demand. Brokers report
liberal sprinkling of local orders for this
stock, some of them for big blocks. This is
a good answer to the assertion that invest
ors have no confidence in it. Wheeling Gas
lost ground.
There are standing orders for CHARTERS
Railway, hut there have been no offers for
some time. Buyers will have to bid better
than IS to bring it out.
The fractions failed to attract. The most
of the buying of these stocks is sub rosa.
The public will be willing enough to take
hold of them before the year rolls by. That
they will be the leaders of the market is
next to a certainty. The element of doubt
is very small.
Point Bridge moved up another peg. AL
though the public has very faint concep-
ton of the cause of the advance the people
who want the stock are supposed to know
all about it. There is said to be a railway
deal of some kind at the bottom.
Electric was dull and featureless. For
non-assented stock II was bid; for assented,
l2L Trading in the new stock will soon be
in the regular order, and this may give it a
fresh impulse. The meeting to-day will be
important as the final act in the work of re-
organization.
Sales on call yesterday were: --r--.-.s-
First calico Philadelphia Gas at 1lH, 100
La Noria at % cents
Second call-30 Philadelphia Gas at IL
Third call-No sales.
Bids and asking prices at each call are ap-
handed.

STOCKS LOOKING UP.
BEARS STILL CLAIM TO BE MASTERS
OF THE SITUATION,

But Nearly All Shares Advance More or
Less-A Heavy Covering of Shorts
Lead Trust and Tennessee Coal Are
Weak Points-Bonds Active.
NEW YORK, July 2s-The stock market to-
day displayed materially better tone on
the whole than yesterday, while prices
made considerable progress in recovery of
losses of the previous day. There was
marked decrease in the amount of business
done, and the dealings extended to a smaller
number of stocks than yesterday. The
SPECTATORS, however, seem not to have
been broken as yet, and the hopes of Wall
street men that the dullness had been
checked by the decline was not realized to-
day.
The bears claim to have full command of
the market, and that all the buying is for
the short account but the continuance of
the upward movement to-day would seem to
indicate that someone is willing to take Sc
curities at concessions, while the advances
do not tempt selling except by the short
sellers. In the market to-day, however, the
stocks which are supposed to have the
largest short interest, viz. st. Paul and Bur-
lington, were the only really active stocks,
but the latter displayed the most stubborn
strength.
The only really weak point in the list was
Lead Trust, though drop of per cent in
tennessee Goal renewed tne mOnOtOny
among the specialties. There was un-
doubtedly heavy covering in shorts, and
brokers identified with the leading bear
operator were large purchasers, especially
during the forenoon; but the foreigners did
something in that line, also and the feeling
became more bullish from the very fact
that large lines of shorts we're covered.
There were signs of support in Richmond
and West Point, and that stock, while re-
covering smartly, was again comparatively
dull but the preferred stock failed to move
in either direction. The Industrials, with
the exception of Lead, werequite neglected,
and the low priced shares, as a rule, showed
no feature.
Opening prices were from n to u per cent
better than last nights figures, under the
demand from the shorts, and helped by the
Burlington statement for June, showing
material increase in net earnings, and
statement from the Richmond and West
Point officials that the company had sufh-
cient funds in hand to meet maturing obliga-
tions. The upward movement extended to
nearly N per cent before it was checked.
RealizatiOns caused slight reaction in the
forenoon, but later the best figures were
again attained, and Burlington scored still
further advance. In the afternoon Ten
nessee Coal dropped per cent, and realiza-
t1ons again sagged the list off in the last
hour, but only In the Wizards was there any
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-07-29

real weakness, all of them retiring over l
per cent from the best figures.
The market finally closed dull but fairly
nrm at small fractional gains for the day.
me active shares, however, are nearly All
up large fractions, and Burlington, notwith-
standing the reaction, is l per cent higher
than last evening
railroad bonds were little more active,
tnough the dealings were not so widely as
tr1Duted, and a firm tone marked the bus1-
ness, most of the issues traded in showing
some improvement over their last previous
sales. The Richmond and West Point issues
felt the stimulus of the reaction in the
STOCK, and the SIS rose per cent to 81, ana
change is to be noted. The sales reached
1914, 200.
