STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July 15.-Today's short
market was so narrow and so nearly
stagnant that movements or prices were
of little significance. There was Il
parceptible tone of firmness, however,
which was emphasized after the appear
ance OF the bank statement by the hasty
covering of some small bear contracts
in the Changers which had been put
out just previous to the appearance
of the statement. Probably the greater
part of the days business was given
over to the closing out of short contracts
by the bears. This contingent had been
particularly active in Brooklyn Tran
sit during the past week, OH the pcrss-
tent talk of Il pending strike. Their
buying to cover today made that stock
the most active on. the list and moved
it up 2 points froI he opening decline
Sugar was largely bought and rose at
one time rs over last night Peoples
Gas recovered sharply from yesterdays
prices. Oregon Navigation preferred adj
yanced 1M on the discharge Of the yot-
ing trust and the implied guarantee
Of preferred dividends TO the amount
of 10 per cent in yearly installments.
Cotton oil rose over Il point. Manhat-
tan and the Southwestern Railways were
also inclined to strength. The bank
statement was up to expectations in the
item Of loan contractions and the conse-
quent reduction in deposit liabilities. 1t

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
The letter in to-day's Journal about street
cars was no doubt Of great interest TO the
patrons of the cars and I trust Of some
benefit TO the management. The writer men,
tons the high steps and the difficulty Of
the old. the young or the feeble to get into
the cars. He might have gone further and
called attention to the possibility Of lasting
injury to many women in their effort to
get aboard. The high steps are simply
atrocious and an outrage on the public.
Why are they built that way? OF what BEN
eft is II? Mr.. Clark's letter was necessar-
lily OF some length. but he could have filled
several columns If he lived on the Ala
bama-street line. If this line does not pay,
as, judging from the service IL does not,
then why not tear up the tracks and give
Pennsylvania street? I have no doubt that
% per cent. or more of the residents Of
North Alabama street below Nineteenth
street would say Amen" especially those
who live between Fort Wayne avenue and
Eleventh street. Here is a very narrow
stretch Of four blocks. where the double
tracks preclude safe driving or wheeling.
Two or three lives have been lost through
accidents with the cars. one Of which was a
top speed IL they are a minute or so late.
could not the company be compelled to
abandon the double and substitute a single
track through this narrow part, and, fur
thermore, run the cars at reduced speed
until the broader part at either end Is
reached? ALABAMA STREET.
