THE STOCK MARX IgI.
Volume of Transactions Fall Below
 Half u Million Shares

Volume of Transactions Fall Below Half n Million shares.
 New York, Aug. 2S.-The volume in trans | actions in the stock exchange to-day fell be- low half million shares, and the table of net changes at the close Is wholly without significance. No attention was paid by the traders to any news of the day and, in fact, there were no occurrences having any i'm portant bearing on the value of the securi- ties. The bear traders made feeble raid shortly after the opening, but the offerings of stocks proved so small that they be- came intimidated and bought back aga'n,
 covering short lines which were left over , from yesterday. The success of yesterday S
 raid seems to have been due to an encoun-
 ter with some particularly weak speculative lines. To-day these stocks were tenaclously held again notwithstanding the extreme listlessness of the demand. Signs Of re- neWed weakness in the corn market after the opening dealings induced some covering in stocks from western sources.
 The approach of q three day holiday h
 the stock market had its part In discourag-
 ing any resumption of speculative activity. The reopening of the dispute between France and Turkey had some influence up- phaslzed by the discouraging view caused
 by the prolongation of the Boer war.
 On the other hand T settlement of the steel strike is believed in Wall street to be
 possible at any time. Notwithstanding the depression generally in foreign markets, there was active demand from the arbitrage
 houses for stocks in this market, possibly
 connected with the London stock market
 settlement, which is to be concluded to-
 morrow. Besides this there were renewed offerings on large scale of exchange bills
 against grain exports. The effect was to cause decided weakness in sterling eX'
 change. The dealings in the local money market, however, continued to show spirit
 of caution, due to the continuance of fac tors of depletion. New York banks deposit ed $T00,000 at the sub-treasury to-day to be transferred to Chicago, But the simultan- eous rise to within , cents of par of New York discount in Chicago suggests that buy ing of stocks for western account may have caused this demand for New York ex- change. marking up of call loans on Fri day with the demand to carry over stocks until Tuesday helped to discourage specula- tlon. The market closed dull and heavy.
 There was less doina. in railroad bonds than yesterday but prices were about steady. Total sales par value S1,500,000.
 United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.

YESTERDAYS BALL GAMES
NEW HAVEN LOST 4 THIRTEEN
 INNING CAME TO NORWICH.

"A Great Contest at Shvih hocH-DnH
 Murphy's Magnificent Playing-Bris-
 toi Loses to Bridgeport and Water
 bury Wins sTyyice-Meriden Beat Derby
 Other Games,
 Probably the greatest game of ball ever played at Savin Rock was that of yesterday when Norwich beat the locals by the score of to in contest that required thirteen innings. In almost every inning there was a play of the sensational kind, and the excitement ran as high as the balloon that carried Professor Stevens and Mime. Sawyer for their parachute drop after the game, and all those who saw the leap from the sky know what that means. The playing of Dan Murphy, the sec- ond baseman for the champions, was magnificent, as his record shows. He had ten assists, one put out one run and four hits. Murphy's all round play was regarded the best ever seen in New Haven. Harrington, Denny and Thigh also played great games for the visitors and helped make the infield a veritable stone wall.
 For New Haven Bone played another great game at short, and Ashe and Canavan also did well. Roger Connor had twenty three put outs, but his er- TOTS were responsible for three of the runs scored by the visitors. The field ing of the New Havens was loose at times, and eleven errors were chalked up against them.
 New Haven had the game won in the ninth apparently, but as on many other occasions this season they have shown themselves unable to pull out of a tight place. The score when New Ha- ven went to bat in their half of the ninth was to against them. Luchia drew base on balls, Canavan, Bone and Braun singled and two runs crossed the plate. Ramon was on third and Bone on second, and there was no one out. At this point there was a big kick on the part of Captain Thigh of the Norwich team. Owing to the bal loon ascension that was going to take place after the game, a hole had to be dug in left field and stakes were driven and there was general tear up In that garden. It was agreed that any ball knocked to that territory would give the runner two bases. Bones single went past Sullivan and Canavan SCOT ed from second base, with the tieing run. Captain Thigh claimed that there was an error in left field and that Canavan could only take one base. There was a big kick lasting for about five minutes, and finally the game was resumed. The game looked sure for New Haven, but the next three batters were retired on easy chances, and the score stood seven each. Three swift double plays were made in the extra in- nings. Three singles. coupled with er- TOTS by Connor and O'Brien, let the visitors score twice in the thirteenth in- ming. For New Haven Luchia went out on an infield hit. Canavan and Bannon singled and Bone sent a hot one to Murphy. He got the ball to Denny and Canavan was forced at second. There was kick over the play and in the squabble Ramon tried to steal home from third. He was thrown out, Dorsey to Manner, and the game was over.
 Cauliflower umpired and gave satis- faction with the exception of one or two instances. The score.
