BULLS AND BEARS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. July Goose stock mar
ket observers said today that they did not
see any indication OF change in the I'm
mediate future In conditions which were
now regarded as controlling factors. They
looked for the market to continue dull and
uninterestins. but were inclined to believe
that the tendency would be upward. rather
than downward
1t should not be assumed from what has
been published within the last day or two
that the plan announced some weeks ago
for retiring the Wabash debenture AZ and
"B" bonds was likely to fall. Some uuex-
pected difficulties have been encountered.
but 1t was confidently expected that they
would be Strengthened out with compare
tive ease. Persons who are deeply IN
terested In. the success of the plan knew at
the outset where 60 per cent Of both
classes of bonds could be obtained. which
would be deposited under the plan. They
were Of the opinion that the remaining 80
per cent necessary to make the plan effect
i've could be secured.
The co.np;ete earnings of the Wabash for
the month of June have not been received.
but a favorable exhibit, both in gross and
net, was expected While the gross and
net earnings for the fiscal year ended June
80 would be large, 1t was probable that the
be relatively small, because all of the
available funds have been put back into
the property. The earnings OF the COM
pany for the current fiscal year are show
ing well. and officials say that on the bass
Of crop prospects and general business this

~
Much has been published with respect to
proposed new line of railroads between
Omaha and Denver. So far no one who has
written about the matter has had correct in
formation. Most of the dispatches from the
west have apparently been based upon sur
mise. 1t has been very generally claimed
that the Chicago Great Western is behind
the pro ject. and that the line would really
be an extension of its present system to
Denver and perhaps to the coi,st over the
Moffat and Clark roads As matter OF
fact. banking interests In this city propose
to build a road between Denver and Omaha.
They now have surveying corps in the
field, and consequently the route has not
been fully determined. So far the project
Is not backed by any other railroad, nor fas
1t any connection with any existing road.
The proposed line. SO the promoters say,
will be considerably shorter than any ex-
isting line between those two points. They
expect to make traffic connections with sew
eral of the important roads running west
from Chicago.

NEW YORK. July 12.-Except IN regard
TO activity, which vas upon greatly n
creased scale. and except In respect Of the
maximum losses shown. today'S stock mar
ket varied very little from its predecessors
OF the present week. What was generally
SPOKEN OF az the most striking feature of
the dealings was the apparent absence of
any buying orders except at material recess
slons from the previous quotatioas. On :he
Other hand. right from the opening Of bust
ness constant stream OF liquidation pour
ed into the market and the selling OF this
description was naturally accompanied by
aggressive operations for fall
The market was described jy one OBJ
server as being wholly defenseiess. and 1t
was certainly the case that few evidences
OF support could be detected III any di-
reCtIon.
All OF the industrial stocks were under
particular pressure. and many low records
for the current year were established IN
that department At the same time. there
were few specific developments to be named
In connection with the trading In those
stocks, and the same remark might De ap-
piled to the dealings in the other quarters
of the market.
Amlagamated Copper was exceptionally
weak and active, but the course OF that
stock could hardly be explained by today s
further reduction in the selling prices TOT
the metal The United States steel shares
were heavily dealt In and were also weak,
although the declines in those Instances
were naturally less extensive than those
noted in other stocks for which there Is a.
more limited market
Tentative liquidation by speculative pools
and the closing out of exhausted specula-
tive accounts might probably be named
as accounting sufficiently for the course
of the Industrial stocks and for that mat
ter for the lines followed by the remainder

men are prone to think certain. The Pitts
burg rail tonnage for 1908 Will be los, sec, 900

100000 to 12.0o0.00o tons, will bring the
