New York, July 19-The intense duilness
of the stock market continued to be the
main feature of the trading to-day, as for
some time past. Not only was this sTuc
of the New York market, but of the con-
tinental and London markets as well, ana
speculation at different exchanges was
reported in the same dull and neglected
condition. The whole speculative world
maintained its waiting attitude. Many
factors which have been adduced to ac-
count for the situation have successfully
been eliminated and the hesitation still
persists. The bears took some heart from
this continued Discrimination to advance
and made a vigorous advance on the
New York market late to-day. Earlier
gains in some of the specialties were
wiped out, notably in the Tobacco stocks,
in Sugar and in Steel and Wire, and the
whole market dropped to the low level of
the day. Missouri Pacific and Wabash
preferred led the decline, the latter with
a net loss of u.
The grangers all weakened sharply and
Atchison preferred was notably heavy in
tone. Brooklyn Transit lost the greater
part of yesterdays gain and Manhattan
dropped a point below last night. Metro
politan Street Railway. on the contrary,
resisted the declining tendency and closed
away points in the late trading, although
the public announcement that tine judicial
injunction against the distribution of the
dividend declared on the stock had been
continued was not made until after the
markets closed.
New York Air Brake made meteoric
display on yesterdays judicial decision
affirming the validity of one of its pat
ents. The stock opened up II points and
then fell 20 points and closed with a net
de-line of l point. The close was at 200
bid and 220 asked.
The market enjoyed a period of some
strength early in the day, but the transact
tons were on such a small scale as to
lend little significance to the movement of
prices.
Bonds were intensely dull and prices
moved sluggshly. Total sales, Sl,S6l0O0.

Gent to force it up so high. In the
winter time, when the water Is needed
the most, 1t lis presumed that there
will be plenty. The pressure at various
parts of the city is quite low, and at
some points where there is supposed
to be over 100 pounds there is but 40
pounds now, owing to so many people

probably the mains being too small.
