New York, June 2S.-Excessive dull
ness and sluggishness were the fea-
lures of the stock market again tn
day. The undertone was pretty Arm
and isolated advances in specialties
helped the market sympathetically but
some of the specialties which per-
formed that function yesterday were
inclined to react to-day, and so had
their influence in confusing the move
ment of the market. The narrow nuc-
tuations of prices, however. were
above last nights level for the most
of the day.
1t is evident that convictions on the
ultimate outlook are by no means firm
ly held by spectators in stocks on tba

lions in operations in stocks. San+i-

HEARST. GETSASHOW
But Massachusetts, Will PrOba.
bly, Declare for Olney.

BOSTON, Mass, April 20.-A spirit
of concession to the supporters of
Hearst was manifested at tonight's
meeting of the Democratic state COM
mittee, called to perfect arrangements
for tOmorroW's state convention, at
which delegates at large and alternates
to the national convention will be
chosen. The friends of Richard Olney
claimed, however, that the convention
would advocate Mr.. Olney's nominal
ton, selecting delegates pledged for
him.
The Hearst men, headed by George
Fred Williams, won what they con-
slider an important concession from the
state committee when that body voted
against the embodiment of the unit rule
in the call for the convention. Mr..
Williams claimed that the part of the
convention call which declared that
the election of district delegates was
subject to the action of the state con-
vention and had never been authorized
and that it had been subsequently in
serted illegally by ex-Mayor Josiah
Quincy, of this city. 1t appeared that
the call had originally been sent out
without the words to which Mr.. Will
liamS objected and it was voted that
the call as first issued should stand as
the legal call for the convention.
Although the Hearst men won their
point D6IOfe the committee there is
nothing to prevent Olney delegates
from presenting resolutions tomorrow
committing the convention to the unit
rule. Mr.. Williams said tonight that
If such resolutions were passed they
would be Illegal and any attempt to
bind the district delegates would be
laughed at in st. Louis.
The state committee refused to al
low the protest of the Hearst sup
porters that three caucuses in Lowell,
which elected Olney delegates, were
illegal, but granted credentials to two
Hearst delegates in Chelsea, where
delegates had been selected.
The candidates of the Olney wing of
the state committee for delegates at
large are said to be Col. William A.
Castor, Mayor Patrick A. Collins, Of
Boston; William L. Douglas and Con-
gresham Thayer. Those of the Hearst
forces are George Fred Williams,
George E. Mcneil, James A. Smith and
Charles A. Dean.
Late tonight the Hearst supporters
sent a committee to the state commit
tee suggesting that places be accorded
the former on the different convention
committees. The suggestion was ac-
cepted, and committees with two rep
resentatives of the Hearst faction on
each were drawn. AS one of the COM
mittees is that on resolutions 1t is ex-
pected that a platform will be pre-
scented at the convention. 1t has been
announced that no platform would be
adopted.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 20.-What
may turn out to be the anticipated
thanking movement of the Japanese
troops is the appearance of japanese
