New York, July 23.-Stocks were strong
throughout to-day's session. The brilliant
outlook for spring wheat and corn has
caused a complete, change in sentiment,
so far as the professional element is con-
cerned. A little while ago the traders
were disposed to think that the Changers
were selling too high, and they followed
up their belief by buying Burlington and
Quincy. Weather conditions of late how
ever, have been all that the most enthu-
this, with moderate buying for inside ac-
count, and especially of Rock Island and
Burlington and Quincy, has disconnected
the bearish element Buying for the
shorts in the Changers was a feature of
the days trading, and cotNiderably high
er figures were recorded for these issues.
St. Paul touched 70ls, Rock Island 761a,
Burlington and Quincy S9as and North
western 1007s The trunk lines and An
thracite Coalers also scored higher fig
ures Reading, however, was an excep-
ton, ana dropped 10 IO3s On SdleS ny d
Philadelphia house on vague rumors of
a heavy assessment. 1t is understood
that the bulk of the stock sold in this
market was for local account. The en-
eagement to ship 100000 gold by firm of
bullion dealers and the belief that cof-
fee house will also forward a small
amount of the metal were ignored, and
naturally so. A generous harvest and the
activity In the iron and steel trade and
business generally will soon correct this
feature of the situation. In the late ira
ding the railway list was easier on reali-
zations. but Chicago Gas and Leather in
which there is heavy short interest.
ruled strong. Net changes show gains
of Il to ~ per cent. in the railway list,
and Ad2ss per cent. in the industrials.
