LITTLE LIFE IN STOCKS
The Influence of the Chinese Situa-
ton Strongly Felt.
London and Continental Markets
Heavy and Observation-Disclosures
tion of Pools Prevents the General
Public From SpeculatinE-sugnr
and Tobacco Slightly Bid Up.

NEW YORK, July 2s.-Today's news
bearing on the speculative situation failed
absolutely to develop any activity or in
terest in the stock market, which for the
most part was fiat and uninteresting.
The confusing Chineee situation is IN
doubtedly restrictive influ-nce. while the
London and Continental markets continue
heavy and unsettled. The Bank OF England
rate of discount was not changed today,
and the weekly statement exhibited very
slight improvement Money rates abroad
are hardening, and sterling exchange wGs
higher here today. Talk OF gold sh plen S
was resumed, and the opinion was OK
pressed in foreign exchange circles that
probably next week new engagements will
be announced.
Transactions in this market for London
account were very small and on balance
few thousand shares were sold, the for
eigners selling Baltimore and Ohio common
and buying a little Union Pacific. The out
side interest in the market was very lin
tied, and commission house business in
consequence was virtually at standstill.
The manipulatiye efforts of pools can be
continued indefinitely, while cheap money
and the present conditions prevail. There
was, however, 10 aggressive leadership on
either side of the market, and with the
public indsposed TO enter the field, opera
tions were practically suspended. Some OF
today's railway earnings reports reflected
TO a moderate extent the reaction from The
high pressure of last year.
Transactions W to noon amounted TO
less than 100000 shares. The broadcast
fluctuations were in Brooklyn Rapid
Transit, which advanced rather sharply on
talk of Long Island Railroad control, and
for which there seemed to be very little
foundation in fact. while last years famil-
lar rumors OF better earnings that the
public expects were also freely handed
about
American Tobacco and Sugar, on pool
support, were bid up. but the extreme
changes were within one point. The steel
stocks were neglected. The dullness was
even more pronounced in the standard
railroad shares Opening heavy and slug
gish. prices sagged a trifle and then the
market came to a standstill. Favorable
crop reports were responsible for steadi-
ness among the grangers. The adjustment
Of the incipient labor troubles on the New
York Central and the denial that any
such trouble exists Oh the Delaware and
Hudson were without influence. There was
come selling OF Baltimore and Ohio COM
mon which resulted in a substantial de-
cline. In the early afternoon moderate
selling resulted in general recessions.

CANNOT PLAY CRooUET.
Justice Hagner Continues n Re-
straininT Order.

Justice Hagner yesterday granted
continuance of the restraining order issued
some days ago against James o. Akers and
Margaret Lacey, prohibiting them from
playing eroquet on a vacant lot on Hunt
ington Place, between Fourteenth and
Fifteenth Streets northwest. The petit
ton for the restraining order was made

ret j. Marsh, last week, and at the time a

cToquet at night as late as l p. m. For
the purpose of playing at night, it was
stated oil torches were attached to the
wickets necessary to the game OF croquet.
and that the odors and the Pickering Of the
lights Of these lamps or torches were very
annoying TO Mrs. Marsh. who is in delicate
health. It was also stated that the de-
PENDANTS had been asked to desist from
playing the game because OF the offensive
odors when the lights were burning. Be-
fore applying to the Supreme Court for
relief it was stated the compliments
called the attention of the Commissioners
to the matter. In reply, however. the
Commissioners stated that the alleged
nuisance was not in violation OF any of
the police regulations. and consequently
they could not remedy it.
When the matter came up yesterday be-
fore Justice Hagner for q preliminary
hearing, the complainants were repre-
scented by Henry e. DAVIS and the de-
PENDANTS by Henry F. Woodward In
their answer, submitted by Mr.. Wood
ward the defendants denied that the
playing on the lot in question is a
nuisance. and further alleged that the
statement that they were IN the habit Of
playing nightly or until a very late hour
is not true. number of affidavits OF
residents in the immediate vicinity were
offered in support OF tie answer.
After hearing argument of counsel on
either side on the matter Justice Hagner
issued IN order CONTINUING the restraining
order until the matter is finally adjudi-
