Transactions.
New York. July 15-The bears who COW
cred their short contracts in. haste yester-
day afternoon en- the fan of Santiago sold
stocks again today and raided prices down
with no one to say them nay. me v.-i
element refrained entirely from offering
any support, and prices for the whole list
dropped away easily and without any inn
porCant interruption. There was an en-
Sire absence OF any OUTSIDE lnterest aIlc
dealings were very small ana connned 10
narrow list. The sharp break in Metro
poiitan Street Railway in the afternoon
accentuated the general weakness, and
the bears We're apparently content 10
leave their contracts open over night Tor
there was 10 covering movement man
fest. The closing was near the lowest,
with net losses IN many cases point or
more.
A break in Metropolitan Street Railway
was accompanied by- rumors that the ad-
ditional stock issued would be M3,OO0OcO,
instead of $40, 600 900, as heretofore report
ed The statement of earnings for the
June quarter was also considered disap-
pointing. The stock went down easily ana
closed only one point above the lowest.
No very large amount of stock was dis
lodged by this sharp decline, business be-
ing confined almost entirely 10 100 snare
lots on the break. The recent weakness
of the coalers also persisted, the offerings
Of Reading first preferred indicating some
continued liquidation of long stocks. Peo-
pies Gas was also prominent for weak
ness. There is a growing feeling in the
stock market that the successful termina-
tion Of the war and peace with Spain have
been discounted.
The reception both of the destruction of
Cerveras feet and of the fall of San
tiago point to this conclusion. Wall street
entirely ignored the disposition of London
TO buy American stocks on TorafS sur
render and the advancing tendency of
Spanish As on talk of peace.
The definite assurances that none but
individual bids for probably, not more
than $1,000 would secure any portion of the
government loan had no appreciabe effect
on the money market today. The New
York banks have lost nearly 81. 100000 to
the sub-treasury during the week on ac-
count OF the loan, but there is no pressure
for money from interior points.
There was further falling of in the
bond transactions. and prices yielded in
the late dealings. Total sales, S2,625,000.
