Russian Revolt Assumed to Be q
Factor in Foreign Selling
Movement.

NEW YORK, June 30.-There were de-
clines in the international stocks at the
opening under pressure from London,
arbitrage brokers selling 10000 shares IN
the first hour, about half of which was
in Steel stocks. It is assumed on the
floor that this selling reflected fears OF
a spread OF the revolt in Russia, out
important foreign houses asserted that
the selling in London came from New
York. and was part cf the manfpula1ive
tactics of important market interests.
Reading was one of the stocks which
was sold by London, but after the OPEN
ing at S91z the stock was sold down to
90 and forced some liquidation by room
traders. The stock was taken by pool
brokers, and it is reasonable to assume
that the decline is in accordance with
pool desires Louisville and Nashville
reflected the disappointment over the
failure to increase the dividend rate.
Metropolitan Street Railway opened up
2k per cent. Baltimore and Ohio was
affected to some extent by the failure
OF the Louisville directors to- increase
the dividend on Louisville stock.
After the early loans of call money
were made at 4 per cent the market
became strong in spots. Reading moved
up TO 1904. and Baltimore and Ohio.

Government bonds unchanged; other
bonds firm.
The undertone of the market was SO
thoroughly strorg that London's mod
crate sales Unfit enced only the opening
prices. Reading has been the leader.

The Transportation Question.

Transportation is probably the most
important question which the Secretary
will have to consider. Over a thousand
miles of railroads are about to be con-
structed opening up immense tracts of
virgin territory Extensions to the street
railway system of Manila are also plan
ned. These matters involve a great
many questions which 1t is necessary for
the Secretary TO personally investigate
before finally giving his approval to the
plans.
There are also two church matters to
be settled One of these is the claim of
the Roman Catholic church, for the use,
by our soldiers, of the churches and
converts during the Philippine cam,
paign. This amounts to about s. 600 o00
The other is the Dominican friar lands
question. This involves eight large
properties, title to three OF which is said
TO be imperfect. A method of compro-
mise has to be found, and the Secretary
seems to be the only one who can find
ii.
The political situation in the islands
also needs, 1t is said. the presence of a
eonciiiatory authority in whom the
t1llpinos have confidence, and Secretary
Taft. .sho is almost worshiped by the
people of the islands. expects to do
