EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, June 22.-The action of the stock market to-day indicated the withdrawal of the outside public from speculation, pend ing definite news regarding the operations of the American forces at Santiago, and Manila and until the effects of the new revenue law and the Government loan are known. The pro- fessionl operators unable to advance or depress prices in any marked degree. London operated on both sides of the market in Bal timore and Ohio and was a purchaser of St. Paul. The weakness in Sugar ascribed to prospective annexation of Hawaii, was a fea- ture. The bears had everything their own way in this speciality and were successful in forcing out round amounts of stock, which carried the price down 2lz to 12s9s. The succeed ing operations were accompanied with consid- erable irregularity. rallies of a point or there abouts occurring frequently. but the evident lack of inside support encouraged fresh demon strations by the traders at every rise, the stock closing within 14 of the lowest The feverish- ness of this security perneated the general market for time, but the marked reluctance of the standard shares to succumb to bear pressure, coupled with some favorable traffic statements, stimulated covering in the Granger group, which carried these properties above the level of yesterdays close. The action of the Lake Shore directors in making the semi annual dividend to 34 per cent also a contributory factor in the late strength in the railways. B. and O. suffered a loss of 3Ia points on liquidation influenced by the drastic nature of the reorganization plan The bal ance of the list was without feature and, com paratively, prices show exceedingly light changes ln elther direction, except In isolated cases
