market Review

New York, May 25 The stock market
was intensely dull today. There was no
appreoiable outside demand and profess
sional traders preferred to hold aloof
pending developments regarding the
affairs of Price, Mccormick a. Co, whose
failure was announced yesterday. As
this firms business covered wide extent
Of country both by wire and mail, the
adjustment of its affairs is necessarily
complicated. There were not many trans
actions under the rule ON the exchange
today for the firms account, but there
were indications of large transactions in
accordance with private settlements. Thus
in the early dealings, therc was sale Of
a nine thousand share block of Atchlson
preferred the same house being both the
buyer and seller. This transaction was
explained as being merely the transfer of
an account. The prices at which other
trades for the failed firms account were
made indicated that the buying in Of the
stocks was intended to be at about last
night closing prices. The fact that such
settlement could be secured helped to
sustain the market and prices ruled for
the greater part of the day at or above
last nights level in spite of the almost
stagnant condition Of the market. Later
in the day, the sustaining influence was
less effective and prices generally declined
below last nights level. The call money
rate today fell to one and one-half per
cent and choice grades Of mercantile paper
commanded as low as three percent late
in the day. The bond market continues
dull and the changes In prices were small
and mixed. Total sales par value 81 $40,

At the cotton exchange this afternoon
it was said the indebtedness there of

to exceed $780, 1t was said also that
the greater part of this sum had been
