Comment Over Legislation.

Continued discussion was heard In bank
ing circles upon the controversy which has
arisen at Washington with regard to the
railway regulation legislation, the view
being taken that an unfavorable effect
might in consequence be produced In the
political campaign of the coming autumn.
There was little further news relating to
individual securities than the dividend an
nouncements and statements of earnings.
The decided turn for the better shown in
the report of the New York City Railway
Company was favorably commented upon
but hads1ittle reflection marketwise. Lead
ing features of the dealings throughout the
business Session were Union Pacific, Read
ing. st. Paul, American Smelling, Anaconda
Mining and Amalgamated Copper.
These stocks, together with the rest of
course rising from one to two points during
rtJle first hour, and later showing extensive
declines. Very sharp losses were scored by
both Northern Pacific and Great Northern
preferred. The dealings in Amalgamated
Copper and Anaconda seemed to be infiu-
,enced to some extent by yesterdays reduc-
ton IN the dividend on Parrot Mining COM
pany's stock, the comment being made that
while the sum of money involved was tri-
fling the worked-out condition of one of
the AmaIgamated constituent properties
must be regarded as significant.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 15.-After showing a
fair degree of strength in the early deal
ings, when g. number of smart advances
were scored in various directions, the stock
market suffered general and extensive re-
action and continued highly irregular
throughout the business session While
the trading was largely of a professional
character, there were some indications OF
renewed liquidation by commission houses
An unfavorable impression was plainly
created in the announcement Of the terms
OF the new Pennsylvania loan, particularly
as there were limitations that the company
was not likely to confine its borrowing OPP
erations to the present issue Of SJ0,0OO,O 900
short time notes
Another factor that would cut some
figure with the trading element was the
declaration of a dividend of 50 share
on Standard oil stock, as against the $lo-
a-share distribution of March Is last AS
a matter of fact, today's dividend rate
was identical with that declared at the
corresponding period of last year, and
hence could not be considered In the
light of q reduction.
There was little other news over night,
and few developments with the course
OF the business session calculated to
shape sentiment in one way or another.
Advices respecting the growth of the
crops were in the main favorable, some
precipitation of moisture being reported
in sections where it has heretofore been
deficient. Continued relaxation was noted
in the money market for all terms of &C
commodation.
The London stock market was strong
during the greater part of the business ses-
sion, but weakened toward the close on
account of sharp break In the karir
stocks induced by reports that the Chinese
coolies We're preparing to return to their ma
tive country in large bodies. Operations in
the local market for foreign account We're
again however. upon a negligible scale.
