THE STOCK EXCHANGE
NEW YoRK, July 3.--The aggregate of
the transactions today was less than 60
600 shares, a point lower. perhaps, than
has ever been touched on fuil days bust
ness. The fluctuations, too, were in keep
ing with the smallness of the trading, and
the changes on the day are confined TO the
smaller fractions. except in the case of
few inactive stocks; but there was a tone
of frmness in the market which was re-
markable in view of the strike situation.
which has as yet shown 40 signs of i'm
provement. There seems to be no desire
on the part of the holders of shares of the
railroads affected by the strike 10 sacrifice
them. Wall street looks upon the
defeat of the strikers as GER
tsiniy, owing 10 the lack of justice
of their cause. The London mar
ket reflected the confidence of for
eign holders in tho stability of
values, and there was good buying in this
market of 81. Paul. Atchison aud North
ern Pacific and some OF the arhitrags spec
iallies. The vote in the senate by which the
surgar schedule went through did not inn
prove the price OF Sugar stock perma-
nently, although the shares opened 81
higher. A selling movement was inaug-
urated in the early dealings. based on
the adoption of the amendment putting
the schedule in effect on the passage Of
the tariff bill. which is looked upon as
unfavorehle TO the American Sugar Re-
iining Company. A drain of 4 per cent
was recorded in the morning, with a rally
during the afternoon of *, aud a final
reaction Of l. making loss on the day of
