NEW YORK MARKETS.
The stock Exchange.

NEW YORK, June Tho strong up
ward movement OF the grangers received
some check today On account Of rumorS
OF damage to the corn crops in the North
west by the bad weather.
Northwestern lost a fraction. The deal
ings in the two leaders. especially Buriing-
ton, We're heavy, but strong support was
forthcoming for them at the lower level.
Indeed, St. Paul rose at one time a frac-

Union was sold down on revived rumors
OF dividend reductions by the executive
committee which is to meet tomorrow.
But the loss was more than recovered, the
stock gaining a fraction. The strength

the close.
