SToCKs-There was less animation on
the Stock Exchange TO day than during
the preceding days Of the week. Trading
was restricted by the unfavorgble turn oil
affairs at Washington regarding the tarll,
which, coming upon, the heels OF re.
ported agreement between the Senate ana
House, gave the traders a set oacA,
which induced many Of them TO dispose
Of their holdings and when maze
others cautious about extending their lines
of long stock. London was IN the market
both as a buyer and seller, but did not
add very largely TO the transactions. An
other unsettling factor of the speculative
situation was the uncertainty prevailing
as 10 the government crop report
10 be issued late in the alter
noon At the opening of the session prices
showed q fractional decline from the clos
ing figures OF Yesterday, but quickly re-
covered the greater part OF tue losses.
The improvement, however, was merely
temporary and the market became unset
tied, the tone of the dealings gradually oe-
coming heavy under moderate sell
market showed signs of improve
ment and prices moved up fraction, but
at about l2:45 o'clock drive was made
upon Chicago Gas which sent that stock
down and caused a sympathetic decline in
the general list. During the rest OF the
day the speculation was equally unsettled,
but dull without pressure TO sell. Sales
