New York, June 1.-The tendencies in
the stock market to-day were much mixed
and at times so conflicting as to make
any general view confusing and difficult.
II is fair to state, however. that, in spite
of the reactionary course of some stocks,
the undertone of the market was very
firm and even strong. In a general way,
it may be stated that the high priced
leaders of the market, with the single eX-
ception of Sugar came to a halt and even
FeCeQed, WnllS the lower priced STOCKS,
both in the railroad and industrial lists
were lifted to a level more commensurate
with the high level attained by the lead
ers.
The Changers, with the exception of
Burlington, all closed lower than last night.
The very cheap rates for money have in
fact reawakened interest in a number of
refunding and recognizing projects which
were abandoned upon the outbreak of the
war.
The international stocks suffered from
selling for London account, London being
apparently impressed with Spanish re-
ports of the naval battle at Santiago. The
locafHtraction stocks radiated some degree
of preston Sugar occupied a leading
place, both in point of activity and
strength.
Yesterdays activity in bonds was not
fully maintained, but prices advanced
more generally than in the stock market.
Total sales We're So, $780, 900. United States
5s advanced &c, the new As, registered.
12c and do coupons, l per cent. in the bid
price.
There was a sale of the new As, coupon,
at 1233sc, a rise of Is per cent. over the
last sale.
