NEW YORK MARKETS.
NEW YORK. N Y. July 16.-The interests
working to bring about lower prices for the indus
trials were quite successful to-day. Their objective
point was Chicago Gas and they started in early TO
sell the stock and kept at until the close. At the
end of tie day they had the price down 10 $495s
against S55ss at the close yesterday. Final trans
actions however, were at SOL. At one time the
street was flooded with inquiries from all parts of
the country as 20 the likelihood of the company
passing into the hands of a receiver This was de-
MED from Chicago, but it said in some quarters
that since the company had been unable to get
any relief from the Illinois Legislature, and can
hardly expect any from Attorney-General Maloney,
the only thing left to do is TO apply for friendly
receivership, and then organize under the laws OF
Illinois.

covering and a rally to 1914 ensued. American

The railway list stubbornly refused to yield with
the industrals for a time and in the morning ses-
sion was positively firm. The West was a buyer OF
St. Paul, Burlington and Quincy on the excellent
prospects for an enormous yield of spring wheat
and corn. The rise in this group of stocks during
the morning was equal to 14912 per cent Jersey

In the Inactive list Erie Telegraph and Telephone
sold up to so. After the close of business it
announced that 100000 gold had been withdrawn
from the sub-treasury by the Merchants Bank of

generally known. The total sales were 260,720

shares, Sugar 47,0O0 and Leather for 15,s0O
shares. The transactions in Burlington and Quincy
