New York, June 27.-The character Of the
market for securities was very little
changed to-day from that recently pre-
vailing. Railroad stocks were neglected,
and, with a few exceptions, drifted to a
lever price level the demand being insult
hcient TO absorb even the small offerings.
There was sharp drive against Sugar and
Peoples Gas In the opening transactions.
which reduced their price nearly 81 per
share. But the Industrials continued TO DO
influenced entirely by individual causes
and both Sugar and Peoples Gas were al
lowed TO recover. Tobacco, the Rubber
stocks, Spirits preferred, Pullman, Third
avenue and Brooklyn Transit all showed
marked strength at one time and another,
the latter advancing to near IS on very
heavy buying In the final hour There
were few exceptions to the heaviness in
the railroad list. the VanderbIlts and Rio
Grande Western showing some tendency
TO advance. There was also quite an ac-
tive denand for Atchison preferred at a
small advance price, which was EXCHANGED
by the publication of a favorable May
traffic statement. Part of the dullness OF
the market is attributable to doubt over
the bearing of the new war tax TO go into
effect July / on stock sales, loans and ex-
change, especially on the two first named.
The decision of the internal revenue Of
fcers that all reissues of stock certificates.

accumulation of holdings Into one certif-
cate are TO be taxed as fresh issues IL
considered rather onerous and measures
for legally avoiding" this tax are quite
frankly discussed In Wall street. There
was a good degree of activity In bonds to-
day, and mortgages were generally higher.
