A DULL DAY ON CHANGE
Market Limited in Extent and Pro.
fessiOnal in Character.
The Grangers, With the Exception
of Rock Island,
Heavy.

New York, June 2S-Today's stock mar
ket was limited In extent and profession
al in character. The trading in the gem
eral railway list was usually light in vol
ume, professional interest being absorbed
by Brooklyn Rapid Transit. Sugar, Peo-
pies Gas and American Spirits.
Pullman Palace Car and Consolidated
Gas were conspicuous features of the
market, the latter advancing on revival
of reports of an early amalgamation OF
the local gas companies. The grangers,
with the exception of Rock Island, We're
dull and heavy.
The transfer books of the Rock Island
will close tomorrow, and the buying OF
stock, which was for both accounts. could
doubtless be referred to the forthcoming
extra stock dividend. Burlington submit
ted It's statement for May, showing an in
crease in net earnings OF about 20 per
cent, but the showing was without mark
ed effect upon the stock.
Sharp reactions took place in Brooklyn
Rapid Transit and Tobacco. The declines
were accelerated by the execution OF
many stop loss orders in both stocks. The
elimination of the long continued rise in
these cases had no other explanation than
the very extent of the recent advances.
In the early dealings Sugar and Peoples
Gas were strong on buying apparently for
short account, but the advances were not
retained at the close. There were
number of movements in other particular
stocks which We're without definite expla-
nation, and which seemed to be the re-
suit of technical speculative conditions.
The market closed dull and rather un-

CARRIED COAL TO THE ENEMY.
A British Steamship Successful In
Her Mission.

Br1tfsh steamship SUCCESSFUL IN
Her Mission.
Newport News, June 2s.-The British
steamship Roath, which is owned by the
same company that operated the Restor-
mel, captured by the st. Paul while try
ing to get coal to Admiral Cervera at
Santiago, arrived here today from New
York. The Roath and the Restormel left
Cardiff. Wales, on the same day, both
bound for San Juan with coal purchased
by the agents of the Spanish government,
but the former had better luck than her
consort, arriving at San Juan the day
after the forts and city had BEEN gbom-
barded by the United States squadron.
+ The captain put on bold front ana
sailed past the American ships, which
made no attempt to hold him up, seeing
that the Roath carried the British flag.
The governor general of San Juan pre-
vented an immediate landing of the coal,
hoping TO induce the captain to carry the
fuel to Santiago. The Roath's master,
however declined TO consider any propo-
sition along that line. The Reath sailed
from San Juan for New Orleans TO take
on cargo, and on the trip to that port was
held up several times by United States
warshipS. I,-,1
While entering the harbor of San Juan
the vessel was fired upon by the Spanish
forts and one shell exploded on the ship,
infiicting some damage.

THE TRAGEDY OF WAR.
Nicholas Fish Desires to Bring
Back His Sons Bedy

Mr.. Nicholas Fish, of New York, the
father of Hamilton Fish, jr., of the First
Volunteer Cavalry, who was the first to
fall in the fight between the Spaniards
and Americans near Sevilla last week,
called upon President Mckinley and Sec
retary Alger yesterday. He is anxious to
have the remains of his son brought back
to this country, and to obtain the sword
and pistol worn by the young man at
the time of his death.
The President handed Mr.. Fish an au-
tograph letter to the Secretary of War
expressing a desire to have everything
possible done for Mr.. Fish. A cablegram
was sent to Gen. Shafter asking what dis
position had been made of the body It
is believed here that the corpse was
buried Immediately after the battle 1t
is not likely that very many bodies will
be brought back to America at this sea-
son of the year. The War Department
officials think that 1t would be impossible
10 do so under present conditions.
However, Secretary Alger has issued
an order directing that the grave of every
individual soldier buried in Cuba be prop
erly marked and recorded so that at the
close of the war the bodies OF soldiers
may be disinterred and brought back if
the relatives or the Government so desire.

The Mexican Government Has Reg
istered No Spanish Ships.
The New York Herald published on the
I'd instant a telegram dated at St. Louis,
Mo-. the day before, reporting that Luz
percio Martinez Cuban residing in that
city. had received letters from the City
of Mexico and Vera Cruz, in which 1t was
stated that Spanish ship-owners were
navigating their ships under the Mexican
flag and running the blockade of the
Cuban coast at Havana, and that on
May q, 1885, two steamers succeeded in
eLtering the port of Havana, flying the
Mexican flag, having been cleared at
Mexican ports.
The Mexican legation having communi-
Gated that telegram 10 the Mexican gov
ernment, is now in receipt of an official
letter from the secretary of state of Mex
leo, dated on the nth instant, TO the effect
that the secretary of war of the Mexican
government, under whose department Is
the bureau OF navigation, reports that
the above mentioned statement Is entirely
without foundation as no Spanish vessel
has been allowed to register under the
Mexican flag, and that none has been
cleared for blockaded ports in Cuba.
