ON CHANGE
What Was Done Yesterday in Wal!
Street

NEW YORK, July 9.-The result of the
days trading is small average gain in the
price of stocks, but the larger part of the
considerably below yesterdays close, and
it was only in the final hour that cover
ing movement stimulated the prices to
level above last nights close and a point
or over above the low level of today in
many shares. There was no news to ac-
count for the general movement of the
market unless it was the continued good
prospects for crops, which sustained the
grangers. Pacific Mail was very active and
notably strong on the reported intention
of the directors to raise the dividend rate.
Sugar was the subject of the usual flood
of rumors regarding the intention of the
tariff conference, but ruled above last
nights close nearly all day and closed
with net gain of point, raising sharply
at the close on covering. Commission house
buying was lacking, the London market
was not a factor and, in fact, manipula-
ton made effective by the narrowness of
the market was about the only influence
which made itself manifest. There was a
marked diminuton in the volume of deal
ings. A brisk inquiry prevailed for the
improvements were recorded. The general
market also advanced slightly, while a
more cheerful sentiment prevailed
throughout the dealings The aggregate
sales were s1,45O0O0. Government bonds
were shade lower all around. The trans
actions were $4,000.

OFFICE OF THE HERALD,


A very remarkable showing is made in
the June sales of municipal bonds, which,
according to the New York Bond Buyer,
reached the aggregate amount of s19 977, ,919,
consisting of 262 different issues sold to 155
different bidders.
Each of these separate totals is extraor-
dinary by comparison with any previous
months. The number of separate offers
is fully double the average of all the
months during the past six years. The in
crease in offers is not in any sense abb
normal, for the number of direct bidders
those buying original issues-has increased
in like proportion, while new banking
houses making specially of municipal
securities have been organized and begun
operations. The savings banks, trust and
insurance companies are more eager buy
ers of good long term municipals than in
any year for half a decade or more. The
total of sales for June is larger than that
of any month since 1891, except the phe-
nomenal month of November. 1885, when
unsold accumulations of the five months
of the presidential campaign were sold
to the amount of $33, ,7O5, ia in three weeks
after it was known that Mckinley had
prevailed before the people.
y r
Following are the Bond Buyers figures
of comparative monthly sales of municipal
bonds for the first six months of 1896 and
1897.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Notwithstanding
lower quotations for wheat from Liver
pool and Paris, the market here started
firm. September closed yesterday at 66A
a66as, opened at from those figures to
1-16 higher. Its tendency to rise was soon
overcome. After advancing to 66hG6S5s.
it turned downward, and about an hour
from the opening it got down to SC cents.
The sweltering heat of the trading pit was
such that the brokers kept away from it

traders away. The market closed quiet
and weak. Oats were slow, both for the
cash article and for the speculative fea-

packers took advantage of it to dispose
of all the market could bear. The volume
of trading, however was not heavy enough
to cause radical weakness.
