NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The distinguish
ing feature of today'S stock market was
the marked subsistence of activity which
has been in progress all this /3ek, but
which reached a condition almost of tor
por this day. The movement of prices
was also extremely sluggish, with the
exception OF few prominent stocks. The
large speculative interests which have
most largely made the recent activity of
! the market We're nuiescent.
1t is probable c1IaT GIIe reception given
to the formal announcement of the Rock
Island plan of conversion of its capital
and reorganization of the method of con-
troll had something to do with the pause
in the speculation The recent brilliant
advance in Rock Island had been an i'm
portant influence on the whole market.
The details of the PLAN which do not go
beyond a redistribution of capital without
alterations of the property itself or of its
relations with properties controlled by
other interests, arouse, the question as
to what has given the stock its increased
valuation in the market since the plan was
in course of formation. Rock Island
itself fell to a level 3% below last night
during the morning.
Another disturbing influence was the
renewed break in Colorado Fuel which
went below 80. The public recriminations
between the contesting parties to the con-
troll give warning of conflict which
may involve speculative followers of the
one side or the other to an uncomfortable
extent.
Bank Statement Feared.
The fear of an unfavorable showing by
the banks in tomorrow's statement was
another restraining influence upon spec
ulation. After Rock Island and Colorado
Fuel quoted down and made some recoy-
cry there was an improvement in the
general market, and a few stocks be-
came strong and held the general mar
ket. st. Paul, New York Central and
Smelling were among these. The effect
| on the general market was very slight at
any time. Cabled reports showed easier
money conditions abroad with the passing
of the monthend requirements and for
eign exchange was easier here. This
gave rise to hopes that the gold export
movement would be checked next week
and helped the hardening tendency of
the stock market. The forecast Of the
bank statement indicates a decline in cash
reserves of over $1,000, 900, the loss by gold
exports and subtreasury operations of
81. S96, 600 having been partly offset by
| receipts from interior on balance The
market closed dull and heavy.
There was a realizing movement in
Central of Georgia income bonds with a
subsequent recovery. The market gen
orally was dull and irregular. Total sales,
par value, $1,690,000. United States
bonds were unchanged on the last call.

In Wheat
Wheat was inclined toward weakness
only momentarily at the opening on weak
capleS, large receipts and good weather.
Fair covering and local buying, influenced
largely by the strength of coarse grains,
started good upturn from the long con-
TUNED slumpS, and prices made good net
gains. Trade was not particularly active
nor was it large, for offerings were not
free at any time. Crop advices were
