STOCKS TAKE A SPURT
THEN THEY SINK BACK TO THEIR
WoNTED DULLNEsS
no Disposition Shown Either TO Buy or
SeII-Absenee OF Selling Pressure Serves
to PreserMS an UndeFtone Of Firmness

NEW YORK, June S.-During the first
hour of today's market q few large buying
orders were executed in a number OF
stocks, lifting them TO a higher level ana
causing the general market to harden in
sympathy. The movement was not pur-
sued and the market fell into intense
dullness with no evidence OF disposl1lon
either to buy or sell. The undertone was
kept firm by this absence of selling pres
sure, but the market was as near stag
nant as any time since the present negiecf
accounted for by anything in the days
news. Excessive rains in the grain re-
gions were counted against the prospects
of the crops and some rather sensational
reports circulated in Wall street OF dam
age by floods.
The nervous tone in the cotton market
gave rise to some rather disturbing rumorS
of money troubles growing out Of the
conditions in that market, but the effecI
was ignored on the stock exchange. An
unofficial estimate on the acreage OF the
present crop and the June L condition
were paid more attention in the stock
market than were the movements in the
cotton market itself. Estimates of the
weeks currency indicate a continuance
of the flew to this center, although the
New York gain seemed to be less than
last week and New York exchange at
Chicago is rising slightly. With the gain
on SubtreaSury operations there is some
increase of cash over 81 000, 900 to be
shown by tomorroW'S bank statement. The
statement of the June i money in the
country was OF interest as SHOWING Il QS-
crease of but $23, 1865, ,218 for May in spite
of the heavy outgo of gold. The month
decrease is more than accounted for by
the decline in gold coin and certificates.
Calculations Increase In a Year
But compared with year ago the
amount of money in circulation has in
creased $127, los, ,092, of which $90, ,291, ,979
was in gold coin and certificates. The
indifference to the present outflow of gold,
unprecedented as it is in volume for the
period covered, is thus understood. Per
mission was given today for the tele-
graphic transfer to New York OF 81. 750, 600
in Japanese yen to arrive in San Fran
cisco next week. The reports of net earn
ings for April of the Union Pacific and
the Southern Pacific were decidedly more
favorable than has been the rule for that
month, the small increase in gross being
supplemented in both cases by a small
decrease in operating expenses which aug
mented the gain in net. The stocks of
those roads were even more dull and in
different than the average of the list. The
strength Shown by the coaaerS was In spite
Of the April statement of the Lehigll VAL
ley in which the small gain in net earn+
1ngS by the railroad was more than wiped
out by the loss of the coal companies. A
fan in the price OF copper was without
effect on stocks. The fractional advances
in the coalers and in United States pre-
we'll maintained
Bonds were irregular. Total sales par
value 81, 705, 900. United States new As
