STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. June 15.-There was few
crish undertonc in today's stock mar
ket but tho buoyancy of st. Paul was 1.
determining factor in sustaining prices
and in turning them upward after the
dip occasioned by the weak bank return.
Authoritative announcement regarding
the developments in st. Paul continue
lacking, but the belief holds in Wall
Street that controlling interest in the
stock has been made available for the
purposes of adjustment of the North
western Railroad dispute which is being
worked out. 1t is matter of notoriety
that when efforts We're made to secure
st. Paul previous to the Burlington deal.
the figure demanded for the stock by
controlling interests was 200. Intima-

premises were the occasion Of today's
dealings in the stocks, in which con-
spicious speculative leaders, however,
bore a large part, as they did in other
large buying in the market. ST. Paul

Fuel added six points to its sensational
advance. A jump of Ia points in Pere
Marquette and of in Kanawha and
Michigan attracted attention. the latter
being connected with reports of a con-
solidation by j. F. Morgan, of Ohio soft
coal properties. Tennessee Coal and
Iron was strong in sympathy with Colo

mand. The general market was in
fiuenced by st. Paul throughout. The
heavy loan increase disclosed by the

1t is estimated that it would cost
about $4,000 to repair the dykes on the
State farms which were washed away
by the recent freshet In the opinion
of many who have known the Roanoke
for years, it will simply be a waste OF
money to put the dykes back, that the
waters that come down that stream car,
never be confined to such narrow limits.
1t was never done before the war with
an abundance of slave labor, and the
penitentiary authorities with unlimited
funds and labor have failed in recent
years. The land is high in Northamp-
ton opposite the Catalonia State farm,
and to keep the water out of that farm
would confine an immense volume of
water to a very narrow channel.
