SPECULATION
IN STOCKS AT
A STANDSTlLL

NEW YORK, June 20 -Specula-
tion in stocks was practically at a
standstill yesterday. The profess
sional trades attempted to make
something of the Reading directors
meeting, but little success attended
the efforts to revive expectations that
the dividend would be made. The
trading in Reading during the first
hour represented the effects of these
efforts. Small as was the result, 1t
amounted to a large proportion of
the days aggregate transactions.
The price movement was almost
equally Insignificant. The $2,5OO,-
900 gold engaged for shipment to
Paris, added to the 81 100000 which
went out by yesterdays steamer, was
about equal to estimates. Paris also
took $1,19O,000 from the Bank of
England yesterday. Foreign ex-
change showed some slight effect,
but the recession was not sufficient
to preclude the possibility of con-
tinuance of the gold outgo, which has
now reached the sum of SIS, 100000
since the movement began. Foreign
bankers are not disposed to see any
warrant in this movement for sup
Vi OthCi IiOu
bles to be foreshadowed. The possi-
BILE position of the Bank of France
offers sufficient explanation for the
efforts of that institution towards re-
cuperating.
The threatening prospect of labor
troubles in the telegraphic field was
help to the market, while not d.
rectly hurtful. Advances In express
company stocks reflected the expec-
tation that the example of the Adams
Express company will be generally
followed in anticipation of the oper-
alton of the Hepburn law, calling for
more detailed accounting by the ex-
press companies.
The price of copper receded again
in London yesterday and was also
marked down on the metal exchange
IN this country. The movement of
the price of metal keeps sentiment
on the copper securities unsettled
and give llausibility to rumors OF
unstable conditions in the market for
the metal as whole. The weather
conditions continued favorable and
confidence In the progress of crops
vas undisturbed.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
ar value, $750,000.

MARBLEHEAD WON
SECOND OF SERIES

MARBLEHEAD, Mass, June 90
In the second series of trials for the
selection of three challengers for the
German emperor cup, the victors
were the Marblehead, butt this year
for w. H. Joyc and S. H. Proctor and
sailed by the latter, and the Chewink
WILL, another new boat, owned and
sailed by F. G. Macomber jr.
!. The Marblehead won two races
over triangular corse, while the
Chewink VIII. captured the wind
ward and leeward race. Taking into
account the places in which the seven
yachts have finished in the six races
that have been sailed, rhe Marble
head and Chewink VIII. are now on
even terms, with sixteen points each.
The Sally VIII, one of the old boats,
again showed speed yesterday, and Is
now ranked third, with total of ten
points.

Failed to Qualify.

HOY LAKE, England, June 90
Jack Hutchinson of New York was
one of the many who broke down at
the long third hole in the second
qualifying competition for the British
open golf championship yesterday.
He played fine golf In the strong
wind in the morning round, but was
unfortunate In not doing oetter than
eighty-three. He had no luck on the
green's and took twenty-nine for the
last five holes.
In the afternoon round the third
hole, which had 10 be played in the
teeth of the wind, cost him ten
strokes, and a little later he decided
to retire from the contest. AS a re-
suit of the days play thirty men
with a score of ITO qualified

REPUBLICANS COULD
NOT AGREE ON TAFT.

LOUISVILLE, KY, June 2O.-The
republicans of Kentucky In State con-
vention last night selected Augustus
E. Wilson of Louisville as their ceR-
didate for governor and adopted a
platform without a dissenting vote.
The contest between the adherents
of Vice-President Fairbanks and Sec
retary Taft in committee was warm,
but there was but one report, naming
no candidate and merely expressing
a preference for a candidate who
would faithfully carry out President
Roosevelt's policy.
Augustus e. Wilson has been a
resident of Louisville for many years,
prominent in politics and at the bar.

PARIS, June 2O.-A whole

A V CONTEST.

The members of the H. T. G. M.
Club are setting a mark for sociabil-
ity that has seldom been eclipsed by
any social organization in this city.
The regular meeting of the club which
was due to meet with Miss Mollie Berry,
Of Jefferson street, was made the oc-
casion of an entertainment by that
young lady that was unique in the his
tory Of the club. A Cobweb Contest.
The double parlors and the adjoining
room of the CorringtOn residence were
a veritable maze of various colored
cords interspersed here and there with
club colors and banners, forming the
three rooms, a huge irregular cObWeb.
Partners for the contest were select
ed by conundrums and their answers.
To each lady was given a slip of paper
upon which there was a question. To
the gentlemen were given similar slips
Of paper which contained an answer.
By this means each gentleman found
his company for the contest. The sew
eral couples, each taking one strand
Of the web, began to unweave the web
and wind the cord.
The contest for the first prize result
ed in a tie between the couples com
posed of Miss Hazel Thompson, Earl
Harris and Miss Carrie Mildred Bry-
ant, l.. E. Johnson. In the draw off the
