Downward Prices at the opening-lm-
 proved Later by London Cable Advices
 in Regard to the Venezuela Boundary
 Dispute.
 New York, Aug. 14,--In the early trading at the stock exchange the ten dency of prices was downward, London cables reporting a slightly lower range for American securities. Arbitrage houses sold about six to seven thousand shares of St. Paul, Louisville and Nash vile and certain low prices issues. An average decline of about h per cent re- suited, but the bears were less demon- strative than of late. The continued ease of sterling exchange and the abll- ity of stock exchange borrowers to se- cure funds at 3Q4 per cent. created little more bullish feeling.
 As the day advanced and when it was cabled from London that Mr. Bal four in parliament had stated that the outlook for the settlement of the Vene- zuelan boundary dispute had improved the market developed positive. strength. As of late the shorts were the heaviest buyers and 1t is not amlss to say that investment orders are few and far be- tween. This condition is likely to con tinue until the commercial situation | improves.
 | The reports of failures from day to day and the indisposition of the banks to lend money on time is not being lost sight of by any means by stock oper- ators As rule the best prices of the day were current around ? o'clock. One of the leading bears was a prominent buyer at this time and 1t is estimated that his representatives succeeded ill covering about 10000 shares of Sugar and St. Paul. Manhattan, however, scored the greatest gain, rising from "A to 78h Sugar rose from 100A to 1041s, Burlington and Quincy 5S$s to 60. Con- solidated Gas from 13Sas to 143, Tobacco from 55% to 571s, and Northwest from 91A to 931a.
 In the specialties Minnesota Iron fell , to 45 and rose to 51. New England was bid for at 20 against 35, the last reported sale at the stock exchange Louisville, New Albany and Chicago stocks were steadier on statements by President Thomas that the company will contest the claims of the Beattie- vile bondholders to the end. Present officials of the Monon company assert that the guarantee of these bonds was irregular.
