Locally Prices We're Influenced by

SPURTS TOWARD IMPROVEMENT

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, July 14.-Early London ca
bles reflected an irregular market for Amer
ican securities, the outbreak of yellow
fever among the American troops being err
roneously construed into an argument
against the securities of the southern
roads.
While momentarily opposed to higher
prices, foreign houses expressed the opinion
that early military successes would find the
European markets particularly sensitive to
Improvement. Locally prices were under
the influence of more cheerful peace pros
poets, and the first hour had periodical
spurts toward Improvement. Offerings were
small and a moderate commission house
demand was confronted with the necessity
OF bidding up prices in order 10 force out
stock
Manipulation was in progress in certain
quaI teis, and for time prices were held
up Tor advances of l per cent from the
opening level Toward the end of the first
hOur the usual supply of conflicting war
news came to hand, the market hesitating
noticeabiy and relapsing into dullness Con-
lioenco in an early surrender gave way to
hopes OF victory, with minipum casualties
and. pending official advices, the market
came to a standstill.
The absolute absence of scarce material
may be Construed into an argument of un-
uS udi Intrinsic strength Had the real
owners of stocks indulged in any consider
able skepticism as to the ultimate value
of their holdings present prices would not
have prevailed.
In the industrial department the manipu-
lation of Rubber and Sugar were the feat
ures OF the trading. A fair volume of bust
ness was accorded each Of the properties
named. and the prices held well even in
the presence of extreme dullness. Man
haitian was given good support under the
influence of rumors of saving in taxes
equal TO about l per cent on the stock.
These rumors invariably appear at stated
times, and occasionally have some founda-
ticn. The present seems to be one of the
occasions on which some attention is being
attracted by tn, character of the interests
expressing the belief that a curtailment is
pro bable.
The lew-priced shares were taken UP by
their friends under cover of the markets
general strength, and the speculative bond
market also broadened out considerably.
This latter market seems to be destined to
attract considerable business once the war
situation moves out~of the way of routine
events.
Bids of 1929 We're made during the day
Tor the governments new per cent bonds
The final allotment of these bonds will
come as relief to the financial world The
surplus funds are to be used in new enter
priseS, but the government must first an
nounce its acceptances. Good news from
the front and the releasing of this money
are likely to be simultaneous events.

On Sunday, but offered as an alternative
proposition to accept the capitulation OF
the enemy and to transport the Spanish
| officers and troops to Spain, they to leave
all their arms behind and he to accept
thelr parole. 1t was this proposition which
zen. Toral declined yesterday.
