STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July THE stock market
was in the doldrums this morning, with
scarcely enough way on to indicate the
direction of the price movement. Yes
terday's profit-taking movement took all
snap out of the bulls, and the bears arc
disinclined to renew a campaign in face
of recent indications that holders are
unwilling to let go stocks. The closing
of the London stock exchange for a hol-
day added another factor of dullness
There was nothing more than a sluggish
drift of prices in sympathy with the
movement of special stocks. Louisville
and Nashville weakened a point on doubts
about the dividend rate to be declared next
week. Illinois Central was pused UP two
points on intimations that the dividend
rate was to be advanced to six per cent
Missouri Pacific turned heavy on real
izing sales. There was some renewed
show of strength in New Jersey Central
on recurring rumors of new control. The
whole market weakened and fell below

The light volume of selling in face of
this astonishing statement is striking evil

New York, July THE market for
cotton futures opened steady in tone
though 6 to IL points lower under brisk
general selling in which New Orleans
interests took the lead. The bearish turn
of prejudice followed weakness in the
English market. together with most
reassuring weekly review of the crop and
weather situation South, an excellent
bearish bulletin from the Government and
very encouraging crop dispatch from sew
eral important sections of Texas. Liqui-
dation set in after the opening call and
carried prices still lower. Short selling
on a moderate scale was done by the
courageous bears but as rule, new bust
ness of any description was not attempted
on large scale. The critical conditions
ing China served to intensity the weaker
ruling of the market.
