MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
The Features Of the Days Dealing in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, July 12.-The stock mar
ket showed continued strength, today,
and buying by professional operators
was on u large scale. There was good
demand from outsiders through com
mission houses at the opening, encour-
aged by the rise in prices, yesterday. and
yesterdays professional buyers were
free sellers to realize while this lasted.
The market then came to the custom
ray halt after such process. An eager
demand developed for Missouri PACING
and affected nearly all the Gould South
western group in sympathy.
Not only the stocks but the bonds OF
this group of railroads were affected.
Missouri Pacific held the leadership OF
the market throughout the day and
made advance to ASS, an extreme rise
of points. The motive Of this buying
was a rumor of plans for merging the
various railroad properties in the
Southwest in which the GouldS are in
terested.
Good buying set i'll carly for the
Changers, Paciiics and Atchison pre-
ferred and after midday New York
Central was suddenly pushed up an eN-
treme rs. The manner i'll which the
buying demand progressed through the
Railroad list together with the upward
today III Sugar prompted the profess
sioral to attempt a movement in the
Industrials stocks.
The speculation in Railroad stocks
was disposed to drop in face of this
movement in the Industrials. Sugar,
Manhattan and Brooklyn Transit
dropped sharply from top figures and
many OF the gains in the 1ndustrials
were practically wiped out. Prices of
the Railroads sagged considerably from
the top and the closing of the market
was decidedly heavy, net gains being
only PARTLY retained.
Money was easier. today, and con-
fide3ce is felt that the supply will be-
come still more abundant at a very
early date. The bull traders are talk
in;c of very favorable bank state
mcnt. next Saturday, although the )
per cent rate for call loans which held

as yet indicate pletharic condition.
