As VIEWED IN WALL STREET.
Gold Shipments and Fears OF Third Par
Keep Bears in Suspense.

Wall Street. July H.-Fears of gold
exports late in the week and the fact
that the treasury reserve has fallen be-
low the 100 million mark created a
bearish sentiment at the stock eX-
change, this morning.
The inquiries for gold from the
South and West also tend to unsettlc
confidence. as they indicate a DISPOSE
ton to hoard The metal and this can
only be done at the expense OF the
treasury reserve
The agitation about a second sound
money ticket is also having an advers"
influence on stock values and is lead
ing to Gquidations
Good judges assert that if there
should be two sound money tickets in
the heid there would be a serious
break in the stock market
All the Indications point to large gold
shipments, late in the week, sterling
exchange being firm and bills in poor
supply, while the foreign demand for
securities has fallen off altogether.
In the meantime, bullion dealers are
asking and getting Il good premium for
the gold which they withdrew from the
sub-treasury
ON the whole, the feeling in stock cir
cles, this morning, was uneasy and
nervous. The loss in prices ranged
from 4 to per cent. and every promi-
nent stock on the list participated in
the decline
