BY Darlington & Cusack.

BY Darlington * Cusack.
New York, July 14.-The market
opened strong and has been higher
with the exception of the luocal trac-
ton stocks. which were lower on re-
newed strike rumors.
During the first hour there was more
or less general buying of stocks, with
profit taking on rumors of Gould ship
ments which were conspicuous
throughout the list and caused some
hesitation. Northern Pacific led in ac-
tivity and strength. While there is
no probability of gold shipments this
week there is a possibility Of some of
the metal going out next week on ac-
count of the high rate exchange.
The ease in money here at once adj
vanced the sterling rate, which indi-
Gates pretty clearly that with any,
thing like easy money we shall have
continuance of the expectation of
gold
If this is so, 1t will serve to check
to certain extent an upward move
ment and cause a decline in prices.
For this reason, we are not believers
in buying discriminatory on the ad-
vance, but do believe on all weak
spots the market is a purchase.
The bank statement tomorrow pro-
misses to be a favorable one and we
think there is no question but that for
the time being, at least, we shall have
increasing averages.
The close was rather unsettled, due
to the weakness in the local traction
stocks.
