NEW YORK, April 23.-Undeviating dull
ness marked the dealings in stocks today
from start to finish. Tobacco was the only
stock dealt in to the extent Of 10000 shares,
and that was a selling movement. In the
railway list outside the coalers, the only
stock which varied its price to the extent Of
a point, was Burlington, and the net change
was only one-half. Such market offered
no inducement except to the strictly pro-
fessional element, and to them only for
very quick turn on an almost infinitely small
margin. The whole market continued to be
dominated by the war situation in Europe.
The indisposition to trade In stocks seemed
to be based on the expectation that the
Turks were sure to win ultimately, and that
Greek successes only served to delay the end
ing OF the war, which would come by the in
terposition Of the powers in the event Of
Turkish success
In spite of the inanition Of the market
1t is noticeable that the bears are very chary
OF making any wholesale onslaught or of
putting out new short lines. The indications
point also to large decrease in the exist
Ing short interest in the last few days, the
loan rate for most stocks being much re-
duced, except where manipulated, as In the
case Of the coalers. The features Of the
narrow market were all found in the spe-
claItles, where the activity was due In each
case to special cause. In Tobacco the de-
cline was due to reports from the West Of
hostility to the company's product on the
part of labor organizations. In American
Spirits 1t was occasioned by an unfavorable
Interpretation Of the failure of the control
ling interest to have a quorum at the an

Gossip by private wire to Osborn Crosby
& Co.. -four exchange Minneapolis members
of the Minneapolis chamber of commerce
Wheat opened sc higher. Gables came in
unchanged, and this was the cause of our ad-
vance, as cables did not respond to our break
The news Of the day favored the bulls and
while the market was comparatively quiet
and fluctuations small, the trend of values
was steadily upward, and prices were well
maintained up to the close. The news from
the seat Of war favors the Greeks, large
victory being reported. This tends to create
a bullish feeling. as it is liable to prolong the
struggle and eventually may involve one or
more of the great powers. in which case wheat
will advance very rapidly indeed. Outside of
war news the situation is extremely strong,
and with war news prices are liable to ad-
vance sharply. We advise purchases on every
break and purchases of calls every night
after the close or early in the morning A
large profit may be made out Of calls some

market started out In much the same way,

Was somewhat mixed In character, Liverpool
cables being lower for nearby futures and
higher for distant futures. Home crop news
was also conflicting, some reports being very
favorable for seeding and others very gloomy
as to the outlook for seeding wheat at all

the conditions have changed materially for
the better in the Northwest, and that the
next week or ten days viii show a wonderful
change. The Kansas crop report is out today

50 per cent, Last year, same date. the con-

arraignment Of the committee. by j. B.
Cory, a wealthy coal operator When
Mr.. Cory took the stand he objected to
the legislature "nosing' into other peo-
pies business, and said the members
ought to be investigated. The present
investigation he characterized as an
outrage and a disgrace to the common
wealth of Pennsylvania. The atmos-
phere Of the room where the investiga-
ton is being held, he said, was awful
and he added that the money spent
in cigars and tobacco would relieve
the distress Of the miners He said his
mine was idle because there was no
money in the business at existing
prices. He offered to turn over the
mine, mules, wagons, locomotives, etc
to the committee for six months, and
not charge them anything for it. ex-
cept wear and tear, and they can see
what money there is in the business,
and find employment for the men who
are now idle. The witness also de-
nounced labor leaders and organiza-
