Philadelphia, June 19.-Five miles of
clubs. mounted. on foot, by coach, floats
and in carriages, interspersed with
music, red fire and cake walk, is the
shortest way Of describing the turnout
of political clubs last night
The police had prepared for a demon
stration by roping Broad street early
in the afternoon. It was a wise fore
thought for before dusk Philade1phia's
appropriately named thoroughfare was
a mass of humanity and it has been
many years since the poIIce of Phila-
deIphia have been called upon To handle
such banks Of humanity as lined the
route Of the parade. Visitors from
cities where police have great crowds
to handle were PrOfuSe in praise of
Philadelphia's police
An amusing feature of the parade
and by the way an innovation, was an
interlar6ed cake walk in the column.
Characters. were colored men. women
and children attired in costume. made
more attractive by torches of red fire.
In the prearrau of last night

an expressed sentiment by many clubs
to permit nothing in line antagonists to

violations of the order. On one trans

motto: The civil service law disquah-

only demonstration in the line in be
half of any vice presidential candidate
was a display by one club of twenty
streamers on which "Doldver'' was

divided into eight divisions, in which
were more than 50 local clubs and about
20 visiting political organizations. Out

STOCK MARKET
 UNINTERESTING Further Relapse from the Recent
 Manipulated Rise, SELLING TO TAKE PROFITS The Steel Stocks Became Notably Weak Late in the Day on Grow
 ing Apprehension of. the ..
 Future Consumption
SELLING TO TAKE PROFITS

New York July 13.-Today's stock market was but a dull and uninteresting affair, and marked the further relapse from the manipulated rise of the earlier part of the week, which came into evidence yesterday. Selling to take profits was the order of the day, and the bears put out some fresh short lines. That neither of these opera tions was on very extensive scale is suf- ficienty shown by the small figure of the total sales of the day, and the greater part of these small dealings took place in the afternoon, when the bull interests were still making futile efforts to continue the advance. The efforts were not put forth in the even transactions, and the sympathetic depression from foreign markets wasal- lowed it's full effect
 The weakness there was due to renewed fears regarding the Chicago situation and to the mishap to British forces in South Africa. -Phe effect here was purely sympa- thetic, and when it was seen how small the selling for the London account was the bulls braced their energies and attempted to resume control of the market.
 The pressure of profit taking which met the advance when last nights level of prices was approached discouraged the at- tempt, and the market was allowed to lapse into almost lifeless state. The sharp break in the wheat market which might be fairly construed as indicating'a more hope full feeling regarding the crop, was power less to sustain the stock market.
 The steel stocks became notably weak later in the day on-a growing apprehension that the general reaction in business will curtail the consumptive requirements for iron and steel, whatever the ultimate basis of prices may be.
