New York. July 6.-The intention of Sc
Curity holders clearly indicated by the tone
o. tO-day's market for stocks was to await
further developments IN the general bus
mess situation before dealing in the mar
ket. Buyers were unwilling to offer high
er prices than those at which the market
closed Saturday. Although the lower bids
invited some offerings which were quite
large FOR some stocks. there was nc heavy
pressure TO sell, the majority OF holders
apparently being as unwilling TO sell at the
decline as were buyers TO bid higher. The
market was. in consequence. dull through
out. some departments being quite leth-
argic. and the dizziness being less marked
stocks. ST. Paul and Burlington absorbed
about one-third OF the total dealings, a TO-
tai which fell below $4,000 shares. The
days trading was "A clear enough indication
that the H~eaviress OF Friday and Saturday
last was not merely due to heSitanCy on
account Of the approaching holiday. but
to actual reaction in the market. Most

WINGED prices have advanced as far as is
Warranted by the general outlook for bus
mess. The bears also find the labor troubles
in the bituminous coal trade an effective
weapon. The lower prices for American
securities in London were said TO be due
to the reports of the soft coal strike ca

affected values here sympathetically quite
sharply in some cases.
