NEW YORK, May 6.-Todays dull
and sagging stock market was In &C
cordance with general expectation and
was corroborative of the view that yes
terday's buying largely represented
profit taking by shorts. With this de-
parture from the short interests salts
fed, prices slipped back today more
from the exhaustion of the demand
than from any result Of active pres
sure to sell.
The supposition is general that a
period of quiet speculation Is before
the market in the absence Of impor-
tant new developments, with the pos
sibility of some further speculative
liquidation yet to be concluded.
So many illusions have been dissi-
pated and corresponding losses and
disappointments suffered by those who
accepted unwarranted rumors in good
faith, that an early renewal of spec
ulative confidence is not counted upon.
What adds to this probability is the
approach of the season Of uncertainty
and vicissitudes for the country's
crops and the normal unsettling ef-
feet of this period upon business in
general.
Union Pacific and st. Paul continued
their leadership of the market on the
reaction as we'll as on the recovery.
There was some temporary show or
strength in other quarters, but It was
not sustained.
Unofficial reports, which were de-
MED, that Lake Shore had acquired
some blocks of Erie gave a firm tone
to those stocks.
Yesterdays jump in Peoples Gas
was found this morning to have been
due to false report as to the pro-
posed gas legislation and that stock
dropped back. The advance In North
ern Pacific was detrimental to the
market, rather than helpful.
The bank statement conformed SO
closely to the forecasts that its pub
lication called for no readjustments of
market accounts. Sterling exchange
advanced a few points and there is
discussion among foreign bankers of
the possibility of an outgo Of gold to
France, but the price of gold in Lon
don was lower and sterling exchange
advanced at Paris, thus indicating a
relaxation of the demand for gold by
Paris upon London.
The market closed weak and dull.

Miners and Operators Unite to Fight
the Bill.
Harrisburg, Pa, March 2s.-Bitu-
minous coal operators and miners
united on the floor OF the house in oD-
position to the pending March bill,
which would levy a tax Of three cents
on every ton Of coal mined in this
state. Several members Of the United
Mine Workers, including William b.
Wilson, secretary, and Patrick Dolan.
president cf the Pittsburg district,
made speeches before the ways and
means committee against the bill.
Operators argued TO theiT opposition
10 the bill that the tax was not only
unduly high. but unfair, be@ause It dis
eliminates against the binrninous in
dustry, and further. that competition
could not be met in the open market
with states where the industry is en-
coursged by small taxes and appraise-
ments.
II was freely stated by those who
spoke for the miners that the extra
tax must be borne by the miners,
since the keen competition would not
permit an increase in the price 70 meet
the tax. Speakers for the same inter
ests said that contracts affecting 80.-
600 men We're held up pending a de-
cision Of this legislation. while others
charged the present legislature in the
event Of its passage Of the bill Of it's
responsibility for injuring the condi-
tion Of the miners.

BIG STACK BROKE OFF.
Tho north stack Of the power house

feet high and five feet in diameter will
be replaced at once by a new one which
