THE Markets.
Wall Street Review.

New York, July 3O-The stock market con.
tnucd very dull and professional today, but the
field Of activity broadened out somewhat so as
to include more stocks than in the dealings
during the latter part of last week. The added
life to the trading was on the selling side and
inroads were made upon values at points that
have held remarkably firm up TO this time.
Sugar and Brooklyn Rapid Transit were the
leaders in point Of activity and weakness but
a number Of other specialties came forward into
a fair degree Of prominence. Dealings were not
widely distributed in the railroad list, the pres.
sure against the few active stocks in that de.
partment apparently not affecting the firm under.
tone Of the railroad department as a whole. The
grangers were most affected and Burlington was
the leader Of the depression, with a fall Of IA
and practically no recovery. Pennsylvania was
point OF weakness in sympathy with London,
and was sold down 15s. The steel group dropped
under the unsatisfactory outcome Of the Chicago
conference designed to restrict production. Ten.
ncssce Coal was active and weak, falling an ex.
treme points. The stock rallied point. Total
sales were 25s 200 shares.
The bond market was dull and prices were in
clincd to go lower. United States bonds were
unchanged at the last call on the exchange.
