New York, June 1S.-The sales of stocks
to-day were 2S2, 40 shares, and of this Ten
nessee Coal and Iron figured for 27.2OO
shares; Wabash preferred for 1850; Su-
gar for 1900 shares: st. Paul for Is, 700
shares, and Missouri Pacific for IA, 100
shares. 1t will be seen that the inquiry
to-day ran chiefly to the low priced issues,
and of these Missouri Pacific and Tennes-
see Coal and Iron were in the best de-
mand. The Southwestern issues were again
bought on the improved outlook for the
crops, while Tennessee Coal and Iron was
taken by its friends on the further rise
in Southern Pig Iron. The higher priced
railway stocks were neglected and few, if
any, of them scored net gains for the day.
The Anthracite Coalers, except Susque-
hanna and Western, were firm. The pre-.

29jRd297s. New England was higher, but
Erie and Louisville and Nashville were
weak on foreign selling. Central Pacific
was bought on private cables that the
company intended to resume dividends at
an early date. In the Industrials, Sugar
first dropped to III, and later recovered to
firm and higher, but LaClede Gas was
heavy, and after breaking from 311z TO 2512,
recovered to 29A. The drop was due to the
report that the supreme court of Missouri
had decided against the company in the
suit brought against the corporation to
determine the life of its charter. Chicago
Gas and Distilling and Cattle Feeding
were easier. Gov. Altgeld has called a
special session of the Illinois legislature,
and this, perhaps, may have some in
fuence on the course of prices in the late
trading. when the tendency was down.
ward The opinion prevails here that If
there be any legislation, If precedents is
any criterion, it will operate against the
securities of Illinois corporations listed on
the local stock exchange. The market
closed steady to firm. Net changes show
declines of Ad1 per cent. in the usually
active list. Bonds were active and strong.
The sales amounted to $2,604,000.
