THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

The stock market opened with promising
strength and in the morning dealings prices en-
ioyed marked Improvement over Wednesday,
final quotations. In the subsequent transactions,
however a good part Of the early advance was
lost with the closing level at small fractional
changes in most issues. AS A rule, net gains
were shown but only few stocks presented a
net rise of ! per cent or more while in num-
Der Of securities net declines were recorded.
Trading was extremely dull. Sentiment was
controlled by the steel strike situation bull ac-
tivity in the morning being based upon the be-
lief that settlement of the trouble was near
AT hand. while afternoon selling followed re-
ports that an agreement was not yet in sight.
The coal stocks were influenced TO some extent
by reports Of expected future developments that
would benefit the trade. but elsewhere in the
market prices moved in sympathy with the
speculation in the United States Steel shares.
The professional character of trading was re-
fected in the control upon the general market
Of the steel stocks movements.
Trade reports from trustworthy authorities
on the iron market indicate confidence on the
part Of the big steel companies in a satisfactory
settlement of the strike before serious injury
has been worked upon the industry. Wall
Street however, is not in an especially hopeful
mood at the moment, and il refuses to go ahead
with big stock operations until the current LABOR
dispute is brought TO an end. II is not unfort-
;nate that stock speculation has quieted down,
but II may not prove profitable to indulge the
belief that an active bull market will not de-
veop later on in the season. The fact that the
steel workers are not fighting for higher wages
or shorter hours encourages the hope that the
trouble viii not involve other lines OF industry
or weaken the country's grip upol' the iron and
steel business Of the world
The foreign exchange market was strong again
Yesterday with sterling rates practically at the
gold shipping point. Demand sterling sold at
4S7Ek64Ss and talk was heard in various quar-
ters OF the Street indicating the possibility OF
gold exports before the end of the week. In
August last year about s15o00.oo0 gold was
sent abroad but in past years rates Of exchange
in August as a rule, have not been at the high
figures now quoted. The current strength is
helped by the maturing OF siXty-day bills. that
were put out at the time Of the steel deal. The
incorporation of the steel Trust involved large
loans Of foreign bankers. IL is understood. while
heavy American subscriptions for British con-
soils early in the year and the placing OF Ameri-
can capital in British street railway and steam
shin companies. have been additional factors in
reducing the American credit balance abroad
II is not likely, however, that the balance in
favor OF this country has been wiped out, while
it Is certain that il will heavily In our favor
as soon as the outward grain movement gets
under way. The country spare gold to
Europe as home supplies are enormous.

 Costs for Breach of Peace.


 Costs for Breach of Peace.
 Mortimer Brennan, bedraggled and sleepy looking. was before Judge Bur pee in the city court this morning charged with intoxication and breach of the peace. His sister, Mrs Walsh, living at 147 East Main street; testi- fled that at 4 o'clock this morning Brennan created disturbance at her home demanding admission He rung the bell and rapped at all the win dows arousing the neighborhood. When informed that. he would not be allow ed in he broke a window and climbed in. Mrs Walsh's husband was sick and her mother, who is not strong, was greatly disturbed by the uproar. She further testified that her mother was obliged to break up housekeeping because of the habits of her brother. Brennan's defense was that he has been on a spree for few days: that he was going to work at the Wigwam reservoir to-day and desired to see his mother before starting. He was fined $10 and costs on the charge of breach of the peace and sentence was suspended on the other charge.
