plained by the report that the principal trader in the stock left the floor to in dulge in a shower bath. The recovery in the stock was likely to follow the trad CTS return. Financial considerations of far reaching consequence do not enter
 into the discussion of such a market.
 The bulk of the days meagre business was done in the first hour of the ses- sion when a few testing operations by traders were in evidence. These at jtempts demonstrated the lifeless condi-
 tion of the market and left it to the semi-stagnation of the rest of the day.
 The gravitation of prices to slightly lower level during the day was ascrib- l able as much to hamilton as to any active cause. There was nothing in the weekly crop bulletin of the weather bureau to disturb the recent confidence
 in the condition of the grain crops. but ithere was some upward reaction from the considerable decline in the price of wheat and the "hot winds in Kansas factor made it's belated entry into cal
 culations in the wheat market. Efforts
 to market small amounts of some of the uoE44ldHL 1IluuSlELd4 SLDChS IGSGAlGA HI heavy declines before bids were en- countered and this had slightly dis
 turbing influence on sentiment. The recent added demand for six months time money was extended in the mark
 ct for loans of some of the shorter per iods and loan bills were offered fn the foreign exchange market, with effect in
 keeping down the price of exchange.
 Some effect was produced by reports of further sales of Foundry Pig Iron and
 by the strong London market for cop per. In spite of the low level of stock Icommission business it was reported
 that a sale of a stock exchange seat had been effected at an advance o fseveral
 thousand dollars over the preceding
 price.

nouncements.
 It was too hot yesterday even for stock market devotees and the amount of business done was small.
 Speculative interest in the market was so quiet that some news develop ments of sufficient importance to com mand general attention were passed over with very little heed. One of these was a largely increased business in Southern pg iron, with some makers insisting upon an advance of 50 cents per ton. This indicates better condi- ton of affairs in the iron and steel trade than heretofore supposed.
 The market is waiting for the Cop per and Union Pacific dividends. An increase in both would argue strongly for Standard Oil favor of higher prices,
 The decline in National Biscuit com mon to 57 3-4 was accompanied by a report that there is a disagreement in the directory as to the proposed in- crease of the dividend to 5 per cent, as many had expected. It is now gen. erally assumed that the dividend will remain at per cent.
 The directors of the Illinois Central are expected to-day to place the stock on flat 2 per cent. basis. The last declaration was per cent. and half per cent. extra.
 Most of the so-called "big stocks"- namely, the issues which are frequently dealt in by leading interests-were heavy or backward yesterday, showing an indisposition to do anything. It was this that caused traders to stand off. .%
 Southern Railway common sold above +34 and was one of the strong stocks at the opening.
 There was some liquidation and spec ulative selling on the dulness.
 A large number of calls on Steel common for September and October have been sold in London.
 The decline in virginia-CaroIina Chemical shares was due to disappoint- ment over the company's earnings.
 lWasserman Bros. advanced the United States Rubber shares to 1 S-4 points. The interests who were for- Tnerly in Rubber Goods were credited with the movement.
 The movement in Metropolitan to 128 1-4 was inspired by the report that negotiations were on foot to make the v per cent. dividend now guaranteed absolutely secure. The big travel this hot weather was more likely the reason of it's strength.
 On the whole, the days stock mar ket was largely matter of form. Transactions were extremely light. and changes in price were insignificant. At the close, the markets tendency was downward, but there was no demon- stration of real importance during the day. ='
