LIFE IN WALL STREET
1T ACTUALLY REAPPEARs FOR A
LITTLE WHILE
Excited Speculation Takes Place In Met
ropoiitan Traction Stocks, Saving the
Market From the Expected stasnation

NEW YORK. July 1.-Some excited
speculation in the Metropolitan Traction
stocks was the feature of teday's mar
ket and saved it from the lethargic con-
dltlon expected on the eve of a three-day
holiday. Rumors regarding these stocks
have circulated for some days past with
out any official or authoritative sanction
to be had for them Most of these have
pointed to plan for control in the in
terest of the interborough or subway
company. which already controls the ele-
waited lines. The rumors have extended
TO possible absorption of Brooklyn
Transit
In the violent rise of today a rush to
buy by uncovered shorts was an I'M
Portant factor Metropolitan has been in
dlsfavor for a long time past on account
OF reports that the liquidation of the es-
tateS of number of millionaire capital
lists would press particularly on that
STOCK, and also because of poor showing
or earnings The consequence would nat
urally be the building UP of an extensive
snort interest and the frightened buying
to cover is believed to largely explain the
days action of the stock. Other New
York stocks showed some sympathy, as
they always do with one another Ameri-

Prices Are Higher
Prices ruled generally above last night
but the days fluctuations in some of the
market leaders We're not above Is. The
time money market was called slightly
frmer but this was largely a
sentimental effect on slightly in
creased demand for money in connec-
ton with the July disbursements. The
bank statement will appear tomorrow
while the stock exchange is closed and
the special movements incident to the
half-year turn make it difficult to fore
cast results. But it is evident that sew
eral millions have been received from
the interior since the last statement. How
the preparation of trust companies for
their semi annual statements may affect
the banks reserve supplies and how the
dividends and interest requirements may
affect the loan item are questions it is
impossible to estimate with any degree
OF accuracy. Call money failed to get
above Il per cent during the day. Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific scarcely
stirred on reports of May net earnings
which were regarded as favorable. The
reaction in the New York stocks in the
last hour affected the general tone and
the closing was easy. Total sales of bonds

The following grain and stock letters
We're wired yesterday to st. Paul brokers
by their New York and Chicago corre-
SpondentS.
NJ. Doran & Co.'S Chicago grain letter
Wheat-An options sympathized with
the opening artificial squirt in old July
which was bid up when the market was
bare of offerings. The tone then became
heavy and the tendency was downward.

was much less bullish. The weather
present and prospective, showed consider
able Improvement. Crop advices are
more optimistic and the consensus of
opinion was that no material damage has
resulted from recent rains in the South
west. There was considerable talk of
heavy arrivals of new wheat at South
western points by Tuesday The clos
ing strength was based on firrnness dis
played by the Kansas City market and
evening up by local shorts for the holi-
Corl-The little furry in July corn at
the opening was on moderate covering by
local shorts and carried values I'D &c
bnt the advance was as quickly lost when
the demand was satisfied Activity in
o May and December options was consider
aoly enlarged and both ruled higher. Sep
tember was fairly steady. Deliveries ON
July amounted to $500 600 bu The
weather on the whole was favorable al
though higher temperatures would be ap-
preclated The demand is no better The
cash market was 1ac higher
Oats-The features in the oats Situa-
ton We're the extreme weakness in the
cash market, which declined from 1c to

and December We're relatively steady
while May was higher No oats went
around ON delivery. The weather is fa-
Vorable and nothing detrimental to crop
prospects is reported.
OConnor & Van Bergens stock letter
With the exception of a stampede of
shorts i'll Metropolitan. which made an
extreme advance of over 5 points, and
a similarly sharp advance in MetropoI-
ltan Securities. the market held little of
interest. A strong tone, however. pre-
Vailed throughout the entire day and
few stocks We're found for sale The an
preaching three-day holiday was of more
influence i'll reducing commitments on the
short side than inducing sales for long
account, and generally sentiment was in
cilned To look for higher prices next week.
Money rates over the holidays. and es-
peclally on the first of the month. were
exceedingly easy, being practically un-
changed from the nominal rates recently
existing. The unexpected declaration of
: per cent dividend on Consolidated Gas
IoF September quarter made public in
IN me last half hour, was disappointment
TO many, and the stock Yielded easily ON
SmaH transactions. The market closed
dull, with Metropolitan and Consolidated
Gas the exceptions to the general tone.

LONDON, July L. News from
Washington that steps were being
taken looking to mediation between
Japan and Russia creates great sur
prise in London. The British govern
ment not only has taken no part in
such negotiations, but apparently is
ignorant that they are in progress.
Premier Balfour is of the opinion that
time is not ripe for mediation, but to
quote person in Mr.. Balfour's conf
dence, Great Britain has kept the door
open for any such contingency From
the highest official sources and from
the Japanese legation comes the posi-
tive statement that nothing whatever
has resulted from the interviews be-
tween King Edward and Emperor Will
liam at Kiel that in any way was con-
neeted with the Russian-Japanese war.
There seems to be no doubt that re-
sponsible ministers seriously warned
King Edward that he must not initiate
any step in that direction with his i'm
perial nephew
The Japanese legation made in
quiries as to whether this advice was
carried out and it was stated there
was every reason to believe the war
was not discussed at Kiel, except in
the most informal and conservative
way
