ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE.

TnurSday, June lJ-p. m.
Trading In stocks again active and prices
generally strong and advancing. The mar
ket was interesting from many points Of view
and presented features which had a distinct In
fuence on the course OF prices for the greater
part Of the day. There was good commission
house demand for stocks; crop reports were
favorable: there was renewed interest In the
anthracite coal shares. and the Industrial stocks
were largely attractive. and influences which
affect them were not wanting. Causes which
made break in yesterdays late trading ap-
parently helped some stocks to recover to-day
and the bear element was forced to cover at
higher prices. The manipulators OF Sugar made
good their promise To make that stock advance
