DULL DAY ON CHANGE.
Strength of General Fond Market
an Interesting Feature.

New York, July 22-The most interest
ing features of the days rather dull sit
| uation were the further advance in the
new government IS and the renewed
weakness in sterling exchange The gov
ernment per cents. were dealt in for
the first time on the Stock Exchange in
the unlisted department, and there were
large transactions in the when issued
contracts. AT current premium on the
war bonds those fortunate SPECTATORS to
whom ailotments will be made will be in
receipt of a very handsome profit.
Trustworthy authorities in the foreign
exchange market are inclined to think
that the weakness in that market will
continue until II eliminates some time in
August Little or no part of the pressure
at this time comes of offerings of future
exchange and the decline reflects nothing
more tnan the current excess of bills Of
fering, which condition is fully explained
by the state of our foreign .rade.
The strength of the general bond mar
ket was another interesting circumstance
of the day.
The New York Central LIS were very
firm
The stock market was dull and its tone
was uncertain. Aside from the industrfaIs
the dealings We're upon a very ligh- scale.
This group were all advanced further in
the mornings dealings, but they sagged
away with the course of the day.
The railway list was fairly firm. though
the final changes in price were quite lin
tied.
In the opening dealings the market was
1aVorabiy affected by the strength of the
London market, which. along with Span
ish As, advanced on peace rumors current
there. Foreign houses bought a few thou-
sand shares in this market, chiefly St.
Paul.
The close was quiet and barely steady.

country Mr.. CebaIlos said:
Il do not care to discuss the contract
made by our company and the United
States Government further than to say
that this transaction was a wise one for
the United States Government to make
and it will have far-reaching results.
What these results will be will be seen
In a very few days, j cannot discuss
these matters or say what the results Will

Government of the United States and the
government of Spain viii profit by them. y

ACTIVITY AT CHICKAMAUGA.
Troops Leaving and Preparing to
Leave for Porto Rico.


Chattanooga, July 22.-The Second Brig
ade, First Division, First Corps. broke
camp today az Chickamausd, departing
for Newport News, Va. to be transports
ed thence to Porto Rico. Tomorrow Gen.

follow as soon as transports can be pro-
vided. and the movement OF the First
Corps will continue thenceforward in or
der Probably the entire movement will
require from ten TO fourteen days.
The movements that have thus far been
made from Chickamauga demonstrate
clearly that an army cannot be transport
ed in a day.
This was a day of great activity with
the Fourth Ohio Fourth Pennsylvania
and Third Illinois Regiments Reveille
sounded this morning at 3 o'clock and
the men of the three regiments had their
last mess at Chickamauga at 3:45 a. m
They were eager, every one, to begin the
work Of the day The plan of movement
was that the Third Illinois should move
first, the Fourth Ohio next and the
Fourth Pennsylvania last. The Third Illi-
nois broke camp at a. m, receiving the
command TO move at 500.
While the Third Illinois was leaving
the Fourth Ohio was preparing to do so.
It left a 7:30 a. m. All of the regiments
allowed themselves two hours and half
for the march to Rossville.
The Third Illinois was loaded at once
into the troop train. The train consisted
OF 100 cars, divided into nine sections. The
work of loading lasted all day but was
finished before sunset and the last sec
ton of the train rolled out early tonight
Tomorrow Rossville will again be the
scene of action, as the hospital and ambu-
lance corps and signal service corps are
to load there also.

denomination will be sent out on that
day.

There is nothing new in the market sit
uation Yesterday was dull and uninter-
esting and little business. was done even
in the usual favorites. Toward the last
of the day there was period of heaviness
and prices went off. Even this, however,
did not have the effect of increasing busi-
ness The traders are in the country and
at the seashore. Those that have re-
mained in the city are not disposed to do
any business Prices are high enough,
they seem to believe, and yet there is no
reason to sell with the war progressing SO
favorably. The only thing now that
seems likely TO shake the lethargy off the
market is peace or very positive indica-
tions that ii Is near. Victories have come
that were magnificent and the traders
have regarded them with never sugges-
ton of interest as far as the market was
concerned. The usual Summer dullness
would not likely be broken for two
months to come under ordinary circum-
stances, and it seems very reasonable to
suppose that this season will not be any
exception to the usual rule. There is no
particular advice that can be given under
the circumstances. except that if one is in
the market long there is no reason to get
out Prices Will be likely to go up before
they go down TO any great extent, even
If the process is wearisome one.
