STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. August 4.-There was moth
ing important in today's dealing in
stocks. The tone was firm, owing to the
scanty offerings of stocks, but the eff
forts to arouse any speculative enthus-
iasm were quite futile, outside of
moderate demand for the iron and steel
shares, which generally advanced from
one to one and quarters, the lat
ter figure representing the extreme gain
by Tennessee Coal and Iron. The motives
of the movement was the encouraging
opinion expressed by the commercial re-
views of the week on the condition in
the iron trade. The report of yellow
fever in Florida caused heaviness in one
or two Southern railroad lines, and
Brooklyn Rapid Transit was affected by
reports of labor disaffection. Ameri-
can Sugar continued on it's course toward
recovery and the upward movement in
Union Pacific was continued. the other
ns-continental railroads showing some
sympathy. The list yielded somewhat on
the bank statement but nothing like i'm
portant liquidation was in evidence. The
closing was dull and rather heavy, with
the Steel industrials and a few other
Specialties showing the only notable net
changes. The growth in banking re-
serves was less than expected, and the
loan expansion made increased reserve re-
quirments, so that the increase in sur
plus failed to be more than was anticipa-t
ted. The reserve item of the banks
was of additional Importance from the
fact that the American subscriptions to
the new British war loan are seen to
insure an outward movement of gold.
Interested bankers estimate that the de-
mand for gold to export on this ac-
count may amount to from ten to fifteen

STRAW VOTE OF NEW YORK CITY.
The Journal Finds That Rryan's Plurality Will
Be About S9,93G.

According to a test vote taken by the
Journal yesterday, William ]. Bryan will
sweep Greater New York in November
by at least IS, 1876 plurality.
This straw vote, taken with the greatest
care and surrounded by every safeguard
which could help to insure accuracy,
shows a great revolution in public opin-
ion, politically speaking since the last
election.
1t demonstrates, first, that the percent
age of voters who will change from Nc
Kinley to Bryan this year is nearly twice
as great as the number who will for
sake the Nebraska leader for the pres
ent occupant of the White House.
But more striking yet are the figures
which indicate the trend of the vote of
those who have come of age since the
last election-the young men of this met
rooolitan centre.
Out Of the total vote taken, 4,35S, only
81 who had no vote in 1896 will vote for
Mckinley this year, whereas 295 indi-
cate their intention, on signed blanks,
to vote for William Jennings Bryan.
The Journals test vote, as taken yes
terday, can be accepted as a thoroughly
fair effort to test the real sentiment of
the entire population of Greater New
York Every class of voters was reach
ed. The method followed sought not
only to reach all manner of voters, but to
give each one an opportunity to consid-
er the questions asked carefully, and to
write out, his choice and sign his name.

emphatic weakness under aggressive sell
ing by the bear forces in conjunction
with active liquidation of local and for
eign holders. Throughout the forenoon
the market was feverishly active with
the general undertone heavy. There were
occasional flurries of profit taking, caus
ing upward spurts in values. But in the
main bulls showed a lack of courage and
organization. All the regulation influ-
ences on the bear side of late were still
extant while in addition to this backing
shorts had a very fine crop and weather
statement by the Chronicle and nothing
in the way of bull news of any sort from
the other side of the ocean. The specula-
tive public and the room trade were the
leading sellers most of the forenoon. The
near months continued to show relative
weakness.
Cotton futures closed steady with prices
net unchanged to IL points lower.
