NEW YORK, May 14.-The volume Of
the business on the stock exchange to-
day was little more than half as much
as yesterday. There was much pressure
to sell the coal shares and industrials
at the opening, which also weakened
the general list to some extent. The
depression was Of brief duration; before
the end OF first quarter hour a good
ouylng movement had set in under the
influence Of which prices began to move
upward, the industrials in the lead,
About O'Clock renewal OF the selling
movement depressed the speculation
and the tendency was downward uu to
the close, the losses ranging up to az

they receive a dividend of from three

and the direct returns that such an
outlay will produce. Taking the state
of Illinois, Il Il found there has been
built during tho past ten years oso
miles OF improved roadway. This Inn
