New York. Aug. H-Speculation at the
neither the. gold exports, nor the
metal taken by the coffee importers
and bullion dealers seeming to have the
slightest influence on the market. Up to
| date the professional traders have been ut
| terly unable to dislodge long stock not
withstanding the somewhat vague talk of
| another bond issue and the steady ship
| ments of gold accompanied by rumors that
the movement will continue until the crops
| begin to come to market. To-day, 81, 400, 600
| gold was taken from the sub-treasury for
| export, but the syndicate at once turned
| in 81 $4,000, which brings their contribu-
| ton to the governments gold reserve this
week up to So. 100000. In addition to the gold
| shipments there was talk of unfavorable
/ weather in the corn belt. The semi-official
| announcement that no meeting of the rep
| resentatives of the Anthracite Coal Com
| panys was contemplated at this time, also
operated against the bulls on stocks 1t
| will be remembered that the coalers rallied
| sharply yesterday on rumors that the pres
| dents intended to hold a conference at an
| early date In detail. the market opened
steady, after which American Tobacco,
Jersey Central. the Changers, Sugar and
i Northern Pacific, preferred, declined any
1 where from Y to 2z per cent. Tobacco,
| Lackawanna and Jersey Central made the
| greatest losses. General Electric was sold
| down q to 36ss on the announcement that
| the negotiations between the company and
the Westinghouse had been broken off.
| Distilling and Cattle Feeding moved up to
| 22st and receded to 210215s. The market
closed weak and a TO IL per cent. lower on
the day Railway bonds were quiet and
| generally firm. The sales of listed stocks
| aggregated 81. 900 shares and Of unlisted
| stocks, 1900 shares.
