Atlanta, Ca, April ll.-A mass meeting
OF railroad presidents and managers will,
be held in this city April 81. The con.
ference Is called to discuss rates. which
are at present in most unsatisfactory
condition to those most Interested and the
new traiiic agreement. which has been
proposed Will be taken up. Nobody who
Is In position to know much about the
matter Will talk. But 1t is said that the
movement started through President Spen-
Ger of the southern railway. who repre-.
sents the J. perpont Morgan interests.
The meeting had been called for April "a,
but because number OF railroad men
were TO be here on the Goth, to attend the
meeting of the railroad commission, 1t was
decided that out OF regard to their con-
venience. the gatherings might be sim
ultaneous. At the same time. a petition
demanding a horizontal cut of a IA per
cent In all rates will be made up and
everything points to a stiff wrestle over
this proposition between the petitioners
and the railroads.

FRIDAY, June %.

FRIDAY June 20.
The dealings in stocks to-day were tho largest
recorded since the present upward movement
began. This was partly due to q sudden revival
of activity in Sugar Refining, which stock sup
piled about onesixth of the total transactions.
There was also more extensive trading through
out the remainder of tho list. In the early deal
ings the shares Of the Granger trunk lines
displayed as much strength as at any
time OF late, and all Of them sold at
the highest prices yet recorded for them.
This naturally induced some speculative rcaliz-
ing, which was followed by a determined attack
upon the entire list by a large and influential
contingent of the professional element The
yigor of this.attack, together with tho covering
OF shorts that preceded it, was largely respon-
sible for the increase in the volume OF trading.
Inc reactionists were taken by surpriEs while
making their most vigorous efforts by a sharp
advance of more than 2Lo points in Sugar Rein
ins. The action of that stock since the begin.
ming of the week has been suggestive of danger
to short sellers who havo based their operations
upon misleading reports as to tho final Hction Of
Congress upon the sugar schedule. In the late
dealings there was a natural recession from the
midday advance. which left a large part of the
list fractionally lower than yesterday. Nearly
all stocks, however. in which trading was i'm
portant closed higher. notably Sugar Rein
ing. Chicago Gas, Rock Island, st. Paul, Man
haitian Railway. New York Central, and West
ern Union. or the less active shares Chicago
and Eastern Illinois preferred. Minnesota Iron.
and Omaha preferred were conspicuous at net
advances of 293 . cent. An effort was made to
stimulate trading in Bay State Gas by the cir
c~ulation Of unfounded rumors Of important
negotiations affecting the property. Gold to the
amount OF 81. SOC. 600 will be shipped to Europe
tomorrow, making total exports for the week
81. 800, 900. All of the gold for shipment to-
morrow was obtained from the Assay Office in
the form of bars.
