BULLS AND BEARS
Special Dispatch to Tn. star.

suecial Disnafeh to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 12.-Sentiment among
certain SPECTATORS today continued for the
most partebullish. Some operators WE'RE In
cltned to take the view that speculation
would remain comparatively inactive for
sone time. while other large interests be-
heved that u would broaden considerably
and become more general. It was admitted
that public participation was still ON
very small scale. though II was believed
that within . reasonable time oHtBide buy
ers would take more active part IN spec
nistien. There was SCARCELY any one
among the leading operators who was posi-
lively bearish. although some did not ex-
pect anything more than traderE mar
ket for the rest Of the week. On the con-
trary. souas OF the most prominent op-
orators expressed themselves as decidedly
builish On the outlook.
The government crop report made public
yesterday YVES generally regarded as salts
factory. Not only does II show condition
which premises good yield for the ce-
reals. according to the figures gathered ND
to June 4. but tho consensus of opinion
among those with the best private fnforma-
ton on the crops, IS that a considerable i'm
provement in conditions have taken place
since the date OF compilation Of the figures.
The recent reports of crop damage and gen.
eral deterioration are regarded as effectual-
iy refuted by the government statisticians.
and consequently a good deal of the bear
ammunition is thereby lost.
Covering of short contracts contributed
In no small degree to the advance in prices
yesterday. but close market observers de-
clare that there Is still very large short
account outstanding Further than that.
they declare that ample evidence has been
presented within the last week that very
few stocks are for sale. The fact Is pointed
to, as an Illustration of the underlying
strength Of the market that prices a.
vanced sharply on comparatively small
buying orders much more easily than they
decline. An impression seems to be gain
ing ground, however that there Is some di-
vision of opinion among the more powerful
financial interests as to course which prices
should take.
One faction is known to be positively
committed to the bull side while the other
Is believed to have taken non-commfttal
attitude for the time being, and, though
not actively bearish. is not inclined to con-
tribute to the bull speculation. Both par
ties are agreed that the crop conditions and
the general business outlook are such as
to foster activity and higher prices for
stocks. but the point on which the split
comes Is IN regard to the money outlook.
1t Is pointed out, however that ON pre-
Tious occasions. with money conditions by
no means as promising as at present a bull
market has been engineered without diff
Guilty, and, indeed, without active support
from some Of the more prominent finan-
clers. Until more general interest devel-
ops. however. some Of the shrewdest trad
ers believe that activity will be chiefly con-
nned to special stocks rather than to the
entire list.
