FINANCE AND TRADE
Stock Market Dull and in
 Hands of Professionals.
"A Generally Satisfactory COndi. lion of Business is Shown In inc Earnings Statement.

New York, June 12.-Opening prices
 this morning were indifferently steady
 around the closing level of yesterday. There was no news of significance and traders were allowed to fix prices, while the real owners of the properties
 sat idly by commenting on increased
 earnings and the general evidences of
 ommercia1 prosperity. Such a con
 dition of apathy cannot produce mark
 ed improvement and the covering of
 short contracts and the creation of the same are the only evidences of the
 markets existence.
 The short interest is now believed to be large and the public are either out of the market or strong enough to disregard daily fluctuations.
 The reports of earnings are almost wholly encouraging Where decreases exist there are special reasons. and there is no occasion for alarm over the probability of their continuing.
 The granger shares, for example. have not reported .increases in propor- tion to their less prominent neighbors, but there is as good a demand for them as for any shares in the market.
 The strength of this group during the afternoon indicated very clearly a growing skepticism as to the wisdom of staying short of them.
 The death of President Thomson had almost no effect on the price ol Pennsylvania shares. The opening price was fractionally under the clos ing level, but good buying immediately forced an advance of per cent. Pan handle, the protege of this company, advanced sharply for a gain of about } per cent under tha belief that the succession to the presidency of the main line will be more favorable to the minority interest of its Chicago connection
 The general impression created by the days movement of prices in the railway list was that any new busl- ness would be decidedly beneficial to prices.
 A further shipment of $5O0OOO gold in addition to the $2,O0O, ,OO0 already sent out by the City bank was report ed during the day. There would seem to be small occasion for concern over these shipments, since the Bank Of England's needs alone make them pos~ sible. No general outflow is appre- hended, and normal conditions are ex- pected to prevail at an early date
 The industrial list was again ac tive and irregular, much of the com. ment on the leaders of that depart, nent being favorable to improvement, put the supply of stock continues to De liberal. National steel directors de- clared a dividend of 1% per cent on the preferred shares of that company. Federal steel and steel wire are re- lied upon to go on the dividend list vitEfn the next few days. The selling 0f thsse shares. while sufficient to prevent any marked improvement, is of kind which would give way easily | 1nder an increased demand
 Sugar directors meet tomorrow and | -hair deliberations will, in all prob ability, be reflected in the course of he entire market.

OHIO WARNS OCTOpUSES
Notifies inc Sugar TrUSf to Do No
 Business There.

l New York. June 12.-A ttorney Gen
 eral Frank s. Monnett of Ohio served
 notice on Henry O. Havemeyer, pres ident of the American Sugar Refining company, that the company had been adjudged a trust u7d,sr he laws of the state of Ohio, and that according to
 such laws the company was liable to
 the payment of a forfeit of $50 day
 for each day that it continued to do
 business in Ohio after the service of
 the notice. Mir Monnett did not
 serve the notice in person. He got the
 sheriff's office in New York county to
 help tim. The notice was mailed in
 Columbus, O., on Saturday, and came
 to Mr Dunn's office at 2S0 Broadway on Monday. Assistant Deputy Sheriff
 John Zahn went down to the head
 quarters of the American Sugar Re fining company at 117 Wall street on Monday afternoon and served the no tice on MT. Havemeyer.
 When Mr John E. Parsons, the at torney for the sugar company, was asked what the company would do in the matter, he said:
 "The attorney general of Ohio has, I understand, given notice to a large number of corporations, including the American Sugar Refining company, that if they continue to violate the statutes of Ohio they will forfeit $50 day He does not specify what the sugar company has dcne or is doing. I know of nothing which has been done by it and I know of no purpose on it's part to violate the law of any state"
 Beyond this MT. Parsons would say nothing.
 The substance of MT Monnett's no- tice, which is addressed to the Amerl- can Sugar Refining company, is as follows:
 your company, the American Sugar company, is a corporation in corporated under the laws of the state of New Jersey, and is such comb.- nation of capital and acts as constt- ute you a trust as dsfined by an act of the general assembly of the state of Ohio, known as senate bill 336, passed April 19. 1898. I call your attention to section of said act, which reads as follows:
 "'Section T. Each and evry firm, person, partnership, cOrporat:on' or as scciation of persons who shall in any violate any of the provisions | of this act shall for each and every day 1 that such violation shall be committed. l after due notice given by the attorney | general or any prosecuting attorney, | forfeit and pay the sum of fifty (50) | dollars, which may be recovered in the name of the state in any county where the offence is committed or where either of the offenders resides, and it shall be the dutyof the attorney general or the prosecuting attorney of any county, on order of the attorney general, to prosecute for the recovery ,f the same'"
 MT Monnett concludes with the statement that the prosecution of the business of the American Sugar Re- ming company within the state Of Ohio constitutes a violation of the provisions Of the act quoted and he gives the company notice in order that le may prosecute the action herein described.
