Market Review

New York, July 16.-The depression
caused ON foreign stock exchanges b. the
sinister reports from China had no effect
in the local market and inoeed did not
hurt tho American securities In the for
eign markets. The movement in Union
Pacific was the handspring of this mar
ket all day and B. and 0. was also an
active feature. The movement in these
stocks was primarily based on the esti-
mates for the years earnings now made
up.
Another potent influence in the market
was the eopiols downfall Of rains in the
corn belt. The amount Of speculation
which has been based upon supposed
damage to the corn crop, was made obvi-
GUS by the violent break IN the price Of
that cereal aud the rapid advance in the
stocks Of corn carrying railroads. An
early advance in sugar was due to the
rise in the price of the refined product
and there was some late strength in the
steel stocks on reports OF new orders be-
ing placed for iron products.
The bond market continued dull and
prices moved both ways Total sales par
value $3.50, 600. United States refunding
