NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Last Market of Week Idle and FIuc-
tuations but Fractional.

NEW YORK, June There was no
change in the several repressive influences
upon speculation in stocks today and the
market was practically idle In consequence.
The policy of the large interests in stocks
seems to be defined as one of p%ernicious
holding until the underlying strength Of
the situation emerges from the present OBJ
sional spectators are apparently unwilling
to venture upon a campaign against values.
Today some influence upon sentiment was
eXerted by the strike of the soft coal
miners in West Virginia, by the increasing
difficulty Of protecting the anthracite
mines from flooding by keeping the pumps
going with makeshlft labor, by reports Of
too abundant rains In the corn belt and by
the failure of the bank statement to show
any recuperation in the percentage of re-
serve against deposits.
While these facts had the effect of abso-
lutely killing any demand for stocks the
selling induced was of quite insignificant
proportions and the light play between
professional room traders, whose attend
ance at the board was reduced to a mini
mum, was all that made the days market.
a large fraction in Canadian Pacific. other
wise not a single leader of stocks that
varied more than a small fraction. The
small decrease in loans by the banks was
insufficient to offset the decline of over
100000 Of cash in reserves, leaving the
surplus slightly lower than last week.
There has been some liquidation of spec
regular tone in that department of the
market. United States Is, registered; the
IS and new As declined a, and the IS, cou-
pom, and old Is II per cent from the clos
ing call OF last week.
