New York. July 10.-The transactions at
the stock exchange were less than 81, 900
shares to-day and business was stagnant.
Chicago bulletins had more charms for
operators than the board. The opening
list was firm, and a moderate advance in
prices was established. This was due to
higher quotations from London and the
favorable report of the st. Paul road for
the first week of July. Operators were
inclined TO take a more cheerful view of
the political situation and the believers
in sound money were backing up their
opinion by purchasing the standard is
sues. Later in the day 1t was announced
that the gold coin taken for Europe had
proven to be Eight weight. The dullness
during the afternoon session was reliev-
ed by little activity in the Industrials.
Chicago Gas, Bay State Gas, Leather and
Coal dropped 1Q2 per cent, Leather pre-
ferred leading. The slump in cotton seed
oil had but little if any effect. London
bought moderately of its favorites.
Speculation closed firm. Net changes
show gains 1sq1H. Cotton OIL lost 1d52s
per cent, and Leather preferred, 1h.
Sugar was the most active stock, with %, :
300 shares. st. Paul figured for 10, 800;
Burlington and Quincy, 1900 and Leather
preferred for 1900 shares Cotton Oil pre-
ferred, which scored the greatest loss,
was traded into the extent of only 1000
shares. Bonds were lower. The sales
footed up s625,OOO.
