STOCK MARKET FEATURES
PRICES IMPROVE MATERIALLY
 IN THE ACTIVES.

Market hOSe One or TWO EOAnts-AOnS
 Wheat Liquidated--Rust Damage Ex-
 aggerated-ShOrts COvered-GOssip.
 Prices recovered smartly i'll the stock market yesterday, due in part to the belief that the reports of black rust damage were stretched a little, and to the fact that large amount of long wheat was liquidated on Saturday in the bulger.
 Confidence in the belief that the dam- age to spring wheat had been exagger- ated was strengthened by the weekly statements of the Chicago traffic man. agers of roads centering in that city, which were quite optimistic.
 St. Paul and Northern Pacific, which went off easily on the rise in wheat last week, rallied readily with the decline in grain prices.
 United States Steel stocks were close fy watched, because of the belief in some quarters that they would be used 10 rally the market further, in antici- patton of good showing by the Unit ed States Steel corporation at to-days meeting of directors.
 Arbitrage houses. bought 1000 shares. They took Erie and Reading and some Union Pacific and Pennsylvania, Cana dian Pacific was nearly point higher The settlement will begin tomorrow, and there is 8 disposition to put off commitments until the new account,
 The short interest in Pennsylvania covered, but there was no strong effort made to bull the, stock. .
 Yesterdays advices from the north west were filled with apologies about the rust damage talk not having been confirmed. These men did not want it confirmed for few hours, but they will pretend to have confirmation sufti- rient to satisfy anybody after they have loaded up with grain again and sold their stocks. <. e.......z 70 .-'
 It was estimated that Gates & Go. bought 25,00O shares of the general market, which represented short cov- ering. IT,.
 The unusual buoyancy of St. Paul, which rose more rapidly than any other granger issue, was attributed to the larger short, interest in it and to the smallness of the floating supply of stock.
 The talk of a possible strike of miners in the anthracite and bitunhinous re- gions was not reflected in the stock. Pennsylvania would be heavy loser, directly from coal traffic and business demoralization, by combined strike of hard and soft coal miners.
 Although it has not done serious dam age in southern and central Minnesota and South Dakota as yet, it might be- come serious with the kind of weather suited for it's propagation.
 It was: aptly remarked by one writer that Union Pacific stock was selling at ''par plus it's Northern Securities as- sets" The distribution of these profits In some form or other and a dividend on Southern Pacific will be the main factors in the future market specula- ton of Union Pacific stock.

it is quite commonly expected will be revealed by the quarterly statement of earnings to be given out by the corporation tomorrow. The money market continued very easy in spite of the Iessened strength of the bank ing position disclosed by the weekly bank statement. The reported quar- antines on Southern railroad lines seemed to be ignored and the develop ments in foreign politics were without apparent influence. There was a con spicuous lapse in interest after the first hour of the trading. but the ad- vances were well held up to the close, which was firm.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, S1.61S,G00.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

YEsTERDAYss STOCK MARKET.
Prices Go Upward With Strong Impetus -.E .at Start--CIose Firm.

New York, July 24,-The action of to-day's stock market was strongly suggestive of an inference that the considerable selling which broke prices on Saturday came from professional bear sources and that it was not suc- cessful in dislodgng much stock for the purposes of covering short con- tracts. The demand for covering dur ing the first hour of to-day's session was sharp and sent prices upwards with quite g. strong impetus. This movement was largely prompted no doubt by revision of views over the wheat damage and over the danger of an anthracite miners strike which were prevalent on Saturday. The large amount of wheat that appeared for gale, the special weakness of the mar ket for that commodity in the north west and the reports of fine weather over the spring, wheat belt, were the materials of evidence against Satur- days crop scare. An additional ele- ment was the very confident tone of; railroad officials in their regular week Iy talks over traffic outlook regarding the feeling in their respective territo- ries as reflected in preparations for future business. The alarm over the labor outlook in the coal fields was declared to be fictitious, in view of the remoteness of the period for fixing a new agreement. These were. the prin- eipal factors without doubt, in the early recoveries of prices. Reports of large buying of rails and structural steel products were favorable influ- ence on the list generally and on the United States Steel stocks specifically. In the case of the latter there was also a disposition to anticipate good effect from the favorable showing of earnings for the July quarter, which

st Petersburg. June Lit Is learned
that Admiral Abasa. president Of the
committee on eastern affairs, in Janu-
ary, 1904. telegr1phed to Admiral Alex
ie6, then viceroy in the far east, an
epitome Of the emperor's views as ex-
pressed to Admiral Abasa In numerous
audiences. The emperor considered
that every year of peace gained was of
enormous importance to Russia and,
therefore, though not yielding on es-
sential points, Alexieff should do his
utmost to avoid war and that he should
be firm but courteous, while not stick
ling for unimportant defA g. There
could. however, the emperor said, be
no discussion with Japan or any other
power about Manchuria. Russia would
not regard Japanese occupation Of
Korea as a casus belli. On the con-
trary. such occupation would be ad-
vantageous to Russia, because it would
convict Japan Of the violation Of all
International law.

KING IS HAPPY.

pared at Paris.

Paris. June liking Alfonso to-day
continued to enjoy the festivities
which France had prepared in his
honor apparently undismayed by the
anarchistic attempt on his life while
on his way with President Loubet from
the gala performance at the opera last
night. Accompanied by President
Loubet his majesty left Paris at $50
a. m, for the camp at Chalons-Snr-
Marne to review the troops Of the sixth
army corps. Everywhere he was the
recipient of tremendous ovations and
sympathy for the young monarch and
universal reprobation for the attempt
on his life.
The king made anxious INQUIRIES con-
cerning the condition Of the persons
wounded by the explosion Of the bomb
and was assured that they were all
alive which relieved him as the first
report was that one policeman had
died from his wounds. The king did
not display any apprehension OF fur
ther danger.
President Loubet escorted by troop
of cuirrassiers arrived at the d'orsay
palace later and held brief interview
with the king. The party then pro-
ceeded to the invalides railroad station
where special train conveyed them
TO the corps manoenvres at C3s?Af-s. 4 :,

their Investigations and great crowds
visited the scene Of the bomb throw
ing.

Rue de Rivoli showed three distinct
traces of the projectile. The violence
Of the explosion was so great that par
ticles OF the bomb about the size OF
nuts were found on remote portions Of
the roof Of the Louvre The pavement
where the missile struck was blacken-
ed and rent and under the direction Of
the police a square yard Of the burned
paving blocks were remNed for the
purpose Of being used IN the investiga-
lions at the municipal laboratory.
During the early hours the suspects
arrested Immediately after the explo-
sion were further questioned. and the
police later announced that the main
suspicion appeared to attach to young
man named Arsene Arnould whois held
on the evidence OF a woman who al
Ieges that she noticed him lighting q
supposed fuse. Arnould who is en-
ployed as a laboratory attendant and
resides In Paris Ia suffering from

1t developed to-day that shortly af-
ter King Alfonso passed last night an
other bomb was found In the Rue de
Rivoli near the spot where the explo-
sion occurred. This bomb contained
dangerous explosives.
The plot is said TO have been planned
