Business Transacted and Prices Paid at HONS
and Abroad

NEW YORK, June 2O-Today's limited
stock operations reflected trade for local
and foreign account with resulting sharp
fractional concessions in most properties.
There was none bearing on the general
speculative conditions and the market re-
tained the flavor of professionalism that
has recently been evident. The trading was
of retail character with sagging ten
dency throughout. Although evidence of
support in few instances, the closing
was weak at about the lowest. Foreign
operations were more Of factor during
the week than for long time past The
foreigners appeared to regard the outlook
with considerable satisfaction at the out
in the International shares. The improved
foreign sentiment contributed to a decided
ly bullish feeling in local circles. and In
duced activity in commission house busi-
ness The railway shares assumed un-
usual prominence In the trading with an
especially good demand for the grangers
and southwesterns due to the encouraging
crop prospects. Pool buying was evident
in many instances and the development of
buoyancy in the local gas properties re-
vived rumors of consolidation projects.
The improvement extended to government
new fours. The dealing in this department
were on a more extensive scale than at any
time since the elimination in the bond sale.
The market received a sharp backset
about the middle of the week owing to a
change Of front on the part of the bond
dealers caused by apprehension of re-
vival of the Venezuelan complication. Re-
assuring advices were cabled to Europe
on the points referred and in response
there was a recurrence OF buying orders
on a large scale. The market gradually
moved irregularly and responded regular
ly to current developments. The aggre-
gate sales were 81. 033. 900 shares Railway
bonds were firm, but otherwise feature
less The sales were 100000. The market
during the week was fairly animated.
prices moving according to the develop
ments on stocks. The comparative figures
show gains in most cases extending to 4
per cent in Oregon Improvement frsts The
aggregate sales were 900. The mar
ket for government bonds displayed mark
ed strength on brisk investment inquiry.
The new as rose IL per cent. the others
being of less consequence. The final figure
shows some slight recessions from the
top level. The aggregate dealings were

but the tone was steady. The sales were

burn started the ball rolling yesterday at

subscriptions and no refusals from persons
interviewed, and il they meet with the
same hearty reception to-day and every

much discussed and hoped for fair of 1895
will be a reality. Nearly every body
wants the fair and will support It, and 1t
would be an unfortunate circumstance not
to have 1t this year, even II times are a
little hard.
1t may surprise many, but 1t is a fact
nevertheless, that the Territorial fair
brings to Albuquerque and puts into circu-
lation from $4,000 to $50. 900. One of the
small business houses took In 500 last year
during fair week, and while the saloons,
hotels, boarding houses restaurants. etc.
derive the greatest revenue from the fair,
every branch of business is stimulated and
directly or Indirectly benefited. Every
individual and firm should cooperate with
the committee, In which case we will have
a fair that will compare with or surpass
those of other years.

NEW MEXICO MEDICAL SOCIETY.

The fifteenth annual meeting of this so.
ciety occurred at Socorro on Wednesday
and Thursday, August 18th and 18th. The
attendance was not large, but the proceed
ings were very interesting. DIR. r. Mar.
ron y Alfonso, as retiring president, deliv.
cred an address on the state OF the medical
profession in this Territory, and the socie.
ty found it SO important that a large edi-
ton in pamphlet form was voted for dis.
tribution among the doctors. DR.. Marron
also read, on the second day, a lengthy and
elaborate paper on medical Jurisprudence.
The members Of the bar Of Socorro were
invited to be present and largely attended.
During tie interesting discussion that en-
sued, the lawyers spoke freely, especially
Judge Freeman. 1t was agreed
that these lawyers should assist the
medical men in devising a scheme
for legislative action. looking to
the elevation of medical expert testi-
mony which is now at a very low level in
| the United States although the physlcians
have for many years earnestly sought the
co operation of the legal fraternity in bet
tering this important branch of court
work.
Other papers were read, among which
may be mentioned one on lardoceons dis
eases by DR.. J. C. Slack of Clayton, one on
hemoptysis by DR.. Peter Ferguson Of Ros-
we'll, and one on treatment of %whooplng
cough by G. J. Duncan of Socorro.
The citizens of Socorro were liberal in
their entertainment of the visiting physi-
