REFUG EES FROM TEN TSIN.

Che Foo, July TO- via Shanghai, July
15.-Several hundred refugees, most of
Tien Tsin in accordance with Admiral
Seymour's order urging all non-combat-
ants to depart Many women have re-
manned behind however, refusing to
leave their husbands, whose business
detains them. The refugees were sent
down the river on board Of lighters and
tugs, and were then transferred to mer-
chant ships IN the harbor.
The American, japanese and German
warships received their people, the Off
GERS of the United States gunboat York
town generously entertaining two hun
dred, most Of them missionaries and
their families. The British refugees
were crowded on a dirty freighter; and
women accustomed to luxury have been
sleeping huddled together on the deck.
They complain bitterly because the half
empty British fleet decline to receive
them, and they have drafted strong
protest to Admiral Seymour.
The United States transport Logan
has arrived with the Ninth infantry
from Manila. The work of disenbark-
alton will occupy some days, as boats
are scarce The Logan will take the
American refugees to Nagasaki and the
Yorktown will leave to tow the Oregon
to Yokohama.
Cannon from the warships are being
sent to Tien Tsin to silence the Chinese
guns. Twenty-three guns shell the Chi
nese batteries yesterday, the Chinese
replying internationally. Bodies of from
1000 to 5000 attack the foreign lines
daily. A field battery is supporting the
brunt of the attacks against the rail-
way station and against the Russian
and Japanese outposts in that neigh
borhood. Bullets are dropping through
the foreign settlement at all hours of
the day; and the people have become so
accustomed to il that they go about the
streets undisturbed

COMING DIVIDENDS.

The failure of the Northern Pacific directors to
declare more than per cent the common stock
has induced the belief that great conservatism will
be exhibited by all companies this year in the mat
ter or dividend distributions The Union Pacific,
Louisville and Nashville and Baltimore and Ohio
directors will ali take action this summer divi-
dends, but so far director Of any of these COM
panies has made direct prediction regarding the
next dividend. Louisville and Nashville directors
will meet early In July and houses that have hith
erto been correct on Louisville and Nashville af-
fairs assert that the regular per cent seml-annual
dividend only will be declared. The Union Pacific
meeting will probably be held about August 10.
On this subject an insider says that any change
from the present 8 per cent basis the
mon would, in his opinion, be extremely unwise.
Regarding the Baltimore and Ohio common dtvi-
dend status, It has been said that one leading di-
rector is strenuously in favor of establishing
per cent basis at Another director is quoted
telling a friend that dividend need be looked
for this season.

BONDS.
THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

Slight Improvement was shown in prices in
yesterdays market The advance, however, was
not accompanied by a public demand for stocks,
and, rule, higher quotations represented
traders covering operations. Stocks were over
sold on Monday, and the short interest covered
throughout the list yesterday. After covering
operations were completed the market relapsed
into dulness and irregularity. in the Of
which much OF the early Improvement was lost
In the final dealings traders attacked the local
traction shares, and the whole list sold off in
sympathy. The early recovery in prices
helped by London buying, by a long list of IA
vorahle railway earnings for the second week
in june and by more reassuring reports from the
crop section Of the country. But the days trad
ing reflected no change in traders sentiment
and no disposition on the part Of substantial in
terests to support the market. Several promi-
nent houses, however. were quiet buyers Of
various issues. Efforts to enliven the market
by political gossip were not successful, while
the Chinese situation and gold exports were
not IN evidence as speculative factors. 1t is
believed that some gold will go to Paris to-
morrow and a round amount to Berlin.
Railroad earnings for the second week in
June are making truly astonishing records. At
this time year ago traffic receipts were enor-
NOUS, and in the West they were enlarged by
active movement Of grain Despite lighter
grain shipments, earnings in the West are now
heavier thap in the same period a year ago.
while in the South and Southwest second week
earnings are breaking all past records for the
corresponding time IN other years. The Chi
cage, Milwaukee and st. Paul showed a gain OF
S44. 7S9 over the second week in June in 1899
when earnings were IN excess Of the 1893 rec
oEd by over $4,000. Such showing indicates
that trade reaction is more in prices than in
actual business, and that the movement of
general merchandise traffic in the granger terri
tory is heavier than IN any preceding time in
the history Of the Western railroads. In the
South Norfolk and Western shows a gain OF
over 100000 for the second week, and in the
Southwest Missouri Pacific in with gain
of $4,000. Bear Oracles have been predicting
Falling railroad earnings for the last six months
but in that timo earnings have returned sub
stantial increases every week While in the
current summer the large traffic movement may
be checked, there is no reason to expect more
than a temporary interruption to heavy rail-
way earnings. Wall Street is dscounting a
condition Of business which gives no indication
Of developing
