Bulish news had the call in yesterdays

that the spring wheat crop was promising.
there was considerable drought news from
TIE Northwest. Advices from the district
extending from North dakota TO " lEi-lpeS

Price Movements Irregular and
Conflicting, With the Close

New York, June 2t-Very little can be
gathered Of prevailing speculative senti-
ment from the movement of prices in to-
days stock market. For one reason, deal
ings were too small 10 be OF any conse-
quence, and were still freely in the hands
Of professional traders. The movement Of
prices was so conflicting and so constantly
fluctuating as TO leave no room for con-
sistent differences as to the motives that
promoted the operations. There was some
degree OF strength in the morning. which
seemed 10 be q simple continuation Of yes
terday's late rally. Last prices. however
are generally lower than last nights. Prob
ably the real reason for this is that prices.

doubt and tinidity OF the board-room OF
FAR in any direction. While one small party
buys stocks. another party avails itself of
this demand to go short and an opportunity
for a fractional profit Is sufficient TO prompt
the closing out Of contracts. For several
years Mr.. Morgan's return from his annual
vacation in Europe has been made the &C.
casion for bull demonstration in the stock

FAILS TO RESPOND.
To-day the passage OF the steamship

points after she was sighted. but the stock
market failed TO respond Some OF the

Eng influence on the market, especially in
view OF the condition of the surplus reserves
of the banks and the approach of the period
of semiannual settlements. The require
ments OF this period are complicated this
year by the falling due of subscriptions for
the 80 per cent installments on the new
stock issue OF the Pennsylvania
Payments Of subscriptions for the stock
are being made in a Gssultory manner but
the large holders of privileges are evidently
deferring their payments until the last mo-

disturbed the money market but IL is esti-
mated that upwards OF $780, 900 remains
TO be paid on this account.
LOANS NOT YET DUE.
II ha. been expected that disturbance IN
the money market would be prevented by
the use of the proceeds OF these subscrip-
lions for prompt repayment Of the SO 900 600
Pennsylvan!a loan taken out IN January. It
appears. however, that this loan. which was
for six months, does not mature under near
the middle of July. Money was higher in

We, the Grand J6ry, beg to make
this our last presentment at this term
OF the court:s
]. We have examined oil bills that
have been handed to us by the Solic.
itor, aud have made suoh findings as,
in our judgment, the evidence war,
rantod.
IL. At the first term OF conyt this
year, we appointed a committee to
examine the books of the county OFF.
cials and other special matters, and
the report Of that committee is here.
to appended and made part of this
report. -
III. We recommend that the So.
licitor proceed at once to take proper
and sufficient steps to recover for tho
county all moneys that have been il
legally poid out to any and all officers
now holding Office and heretofore
having held Office in this county, we
having especial reference to what we
deem to be an unlawful and unwar
ranted practice in the Office of the
Supervisor and County Commission.
ers of this county whereby moneys
have been unlawfully appropriated by
such officers in excess of their lawful
salaries, as also in the matter of al
lowing their Clerk extra compensa-
tion, he being also q salaried employe
of said office, and accepting extra pay
for services rendered within the re-
quirenent of the duties of that place
or office.
Nv. A previous Grand Jury (the
Grand Jury Of 1902,) made a timely
recommendation calling ,npon the
County Commissioners to have re-
paired or copied the index books in
the Office Of the Clerk of Court, and
we observe that no action has been
taken in pursuance thereof and the
said books are fast coming to pieces
and will soon be beyond repair. We
recommend that this matter be at.
tended to at once.
V. We recommend also that the
County Commissioners provide the
Office of Probate Judge with better
and more ample facilities for the pre-
servation of the records Of that office.
We appreciate the marked courte-
sy of Your Honor and the patience
with which our requests for instruc.
tion as to our duties has been given,
and wo desire, also, to express our
thanks to the Solicitor and other
Court officials.
Respectfully submitted,
