STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July 2.-The stock market
was. extremely dull to-day and the
only notable activity was concentrated
in a few stocks. In some of these there
were news developments to give an
ostensible cause for their strength. In
others there was an appearance of
manipulation with the purpose of sus-
tanning the general market.
The speculation was light owing to
the large operations in progress in the
money market on account of the July
settlement and of syndicate operations.
There were large transactions all day
in Missouri Pacific, which sold at the
semi-annual of 2ls per cent, but the
price range all day was restricted to
a fraction. Louisville was in active de-
mand at an extreme advance of 31s.
The movement seemed to be based
upon the formal announcement that
the purchase in behalf of the company
of Chicago, Indianapolis and Louisville
was in effect. Colorado Fuel made an
| other squirt, which was supposed to be
due to a struggle for control, but which
incidentally involved forced buying by
distressed short interest. Short COW
ering was also an element in the adj
vance of Sugar and the rise in the
price of raw sugar also helped that
stock The buying of Amalgamated
Copper was attributed to more con-
ftdent feeling over the trade outlook.
The United States Steel stocks were
firm because of the increased net earn
ings reported for the last quarter. The
statistics of iron and steel production
for the past year issued by the Amer
lean Iron and Steel Association were
regarded as an astounding exhibit of
active and prosperous conditions in the
trade. The steel stocks nevertheless
met a considerable volume of selling at
the advance, a large portion of which
was for London account. The state
ment of May net earnings of the Penn
sylvania system, showing an increase
of over a million dollars compared with
May of last year, was taken as an in
dex of the large profits accruing to the
soft coal carriers as a result of the
anthracite coal strike. The May state
ment of Norfolk and Western corrob-
GRATED the showing and led to the firm
ness of the soft coal carriers, in which,
however, Pennsylvania shared but
slightly. The early tirmness of the To-
cal traction stocks was fostered by the
increased net earnings reported by the
Brooklyn Transit system and by hopes
of large profits from the coming holt
day traffic. The rate for coal loans
showed further ease to-day, but for
efgn exchange advanced. The market
closed dull and easy.
The bond market was dull and irreg-
ular. Total sales par value 81, $50, 900.
United States bonds were all unchang-
ed on the last call

contents of vault intact, store and dwell
ing of Samuel c. Allen, undertaking estab-
lishments of Wright & Eddons and Joseph
G. Dawson. William H. Smiths clothing

ing's meat market, McConner & Sons paint
store and several dwellings. A large num-
Der of other buildings were damaged.
