Their Following the Most
Aggressive Factor in
Speculation.
ATCHIS0N STILL LIVELY
Market Laughs at Rumors That Mill

deavoring to Secure Control of the
New York Central.

NEW YORK. July 25.-Today's stock
marke' was largely a duplicate of yes
terdays with the Western element and
its following the most aggressive factor
in the speculation.
The customary changes in the selec-
tion of stocks for leadership made the
New York Central and Missouri Pacific
active Louisville and Nashville was
also taken in hand and advanced sharp
ly. AT the same time the interest in
Atchison common was maintained.
Pennsylvania was strong throughout
on larger dealings than yesterday, and
toward the close the pool in Southern
Pacific. which a prominent operator now
absent from the country is managing,
bought that stock on large scale.
As the orders presumably came from
abroad, efforts were made to create the
impression that London was buying the
stock. AS a matter of fact foreign ar
bitrage houses sold about $4,000 shares
on balance. and in consequence the ster-
ling exchange market was very strong.
IL tlt ldAt utdlinES-
Enjoy Net Gains.
The FIVE stocks that have been men
toned. together with St. Paul, in which
the transactions were less than half as
large as yesterday, enjoyed net gains
averaging more than a point
New York Central closed 21a points
higher than last night, and the net i'm
provement in Missouri Pacific and
Louisville and Nashville was consider
ably above the average named On the
other hand, there was a decrease of
nearly 30 per cent in the dealings in
Union Pacific Common, and it closed only
a little higher than yesterday. The
transactions in Rock Island were also
materially smaller, and it was one of
the few leaders that sustained a net
loss.
The publication of the principal fea-
lures of the plan for readjusting the
capitalizing OF Rock Island, the purpose
bf which is apparently to enable the
capitalists who have bought control OF
the system to retain that control, and
at the same time release a large part
of the capital invested in securing it.
may prove seriously detrimental to the
success o. the program of other West
ern operators in railway stocks, who
are apparently banking very largely on
the gullibility of the public.
Support of Bull Campaign.
The present bull campaign in the
shares of the granger and transcon
tinental trunk lines has ostensibly been
based upon favorable crop conditions
and prospects. These circumstances
certainly form a substantial foundation
for an advance to the extent of dis
counting a probable enormous yield of
corn.
The enthusiastic multimillionaires
who owe their fortunes to the success |
ful organization and foatation OF the /
United States Steel Corporation are |
not content with discounting a probable /
successful year, hence are supplement-
ing their campaign in the stock mar |

HEAD OF UNIVERSITY,
Hon. w. H. Boaz, a Distin'
guished Alumnus, Thinks
It Should Have One.

Hon W II. Boaz. of Albemarle, one OF
the Oldest members of the House Of Dele
gates in point of consecutive service.
chairman of the House Finance Commit
tee. and one of the most influential MEM
bers of the body, arrived in the city last
night, and Is at the New Ford's. Mr..
Boaz is a Master of Arts and Bachelor
of Laws of the University OF Virginia.
and, living in the same county In which
the University is located, ma turally feels
a keen interest in all that concerns that
institution. and is in close touch with
affairs there.
In conversation with q reporter for the
Dispatch last n.ght. Mr.. Boaz expressed
the belief that the matter Of an executive
head for the University would come up
in the General Assembly soon. 1t will
have to be provided for by statute, II 1t
is proposed 10 create such a position.
The Abemarle members thought that
the University needed an executive head
Che did not use the word pres.dent), and
gave reasons why such an office should
be created. He declared that the UniVer-
sity needed Il business head to represent
it in, many ways but especially to look
diligently after the interests of the school
and In the matter of Its proper adver-
tisement He did not express preference
for any one, nor suggest any man for the
office
