New York, July 1.-The course of to-
DAYS stock market was one of aimless
drifting until near the close, when some
appearance of animation and strength de-
veloped throughout the list This was
doubtless in large part due to the cover
ing demand by belated shorts, who did
not care to leave their contracts open
over the three days holiday. The buy
ing at the close lifted prices TO the top
level, and made net gains extending to
over point, in exceptional cases. Dur
ing the earlier part of the day the mar
ket was almost entirely stagnant, many
active stocks showing not a single quota
tion. There is still some doubt felt as 10
how the money market will come through
the taking of the government loan. The
announcement from Washington that sub
scripuons for small amounts already ac-
cepted foot up $lO,000O10. indicates that
the future strain on the money market
viii be eased by that much.
Among the special movements to-day
are to be noted advances in all the local
traction stocks in anticipation of good
traffic returns for the approaching holt
day.
The only feature of the bond market
was an advance of 134 in Wisconsin Cen
trail first trust receipts Total sales were
81, 10000
