No Use For Chainiess Wheels.

The chainless bicycle has not proven
a catching feature in this city. Several
OF the dealers in the beginning of the
season ordered chainless wheels. having
slight doubt that they would prove
great sellers. They have proven. how
ever, a great drug on the market
When asked the reason for this. one of
the local dealers said that the only
reason he could give IS because there
are so many hills in the city The
wheelmen generally have feared that
if they should purchase the chainless
wheel it would not stand the strain.
The call has been almost wholly for
the wheels with a brake. The old time
brake has gone by and the only kind
used in this city is the coaster brake.
as with this the machine is always
under control.

The Features Of the Days Dealings In All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, Aug. 3l.-Except for some
rather active selling OF Sugar and Peo-
pies Gas. there was not a sparkle of an
imatiOn in today stock market. At the
close there was sufficient demand from
the short interests which were averse 10
leaving contracts uncovered over the
three days holiday. to stiffen the prices
of some OF the railroad stocks. The weak
ness of Peoples Gas gave striking Illus
tration of the lack of consistency in the
minds of principal operators. The other
day. this stock advanced on the report
that a newly organized company in Chi
to Peoples Gas. The principal intelli-
gence, today, brought the conclusion that
the forma ton of this friendly company
must be the signal for war upon the or
ganiZed gas company. the rival of the
Peoples Gas Co. The stock was accord
ingly sold ustriously at an expense OF
2i4 points in its price.
The movement in Sugar was about
equally independent of the news of the
day and was apparently due to realizing
on the advance in the refined product
which was made, yesterday. Pennsylva-
MIA suffered somewhat from the effect of
its statement of earnings for uJly. The
St. Paul & Omaha also returned a large
decrease in gross earnings for July.
Money market conditions, consisting of
an easing of the London discount rate
and the promise OF strong bank state
