Powder Trust Case.

Mr.. Purdy Finishes Complaint in the
Powder Trust Case.
Milton D. Purdy. assistant attorney gen.
eral in charge Of trust cases, will leave
Washington this afternoon with Mrs.
Purdy for New York. whence they will
sail for an extended European trip. Mr..
Purdy's vacation comes after a years hard
work. He has just completed and for
warded to Attorney General Bonaparte the
complaint against the powder trust. 1t
will be filed in the United States courts
whenever it has been passed upon by Mr..
Bonaparte.
1t Is pretty we'll known that the COM
plant of the government against the DOW
der trust follows substantially the same
lines as that recently filed against the
tobacco trust. "A receiver will be asked
for II the government is able to present
sufficient evidence that the powder trust
Is monopoly, and the Department Of
Justice claims that there Will be suff1-
Client evidence. The governments inter-
est in the powder trust prosecution Is
large, because Of the fact that the trust
effectually shuts off all competition in
furnishing powder to the United States
army and navy. and, in a measure, has the
government at its mercy.

Little to Incite Speculation.

There was little or nothing in the morn
1ng's news or in the developments with the
course OF the business session calculated
to incite speculative activity in either d.
rection. The commodity markets were
strong. but their course was not influenced
by any unfavorable weather or crop ad-
vices.
Money on call remained exceedingly easy,
and partly because OF the larger represent
tation OF the matured government 4 per

eequently so far as predictions may be
hazarded as to the weekly bank state
ment the outlook for that document may
be said to be very favorable. The rates
for time loans showed no alteration and
the sterling exchange market continued
exceedingly strong.

lar stocks.

NEW YORK. July ia shrewd observer
Of the stock market when asked for his
opinion Of the character OF yesterday
| transactions, replied that apparently the
| market and conditions which govern II
are gradually getting nearer to the point
where active trading will be justified. He
| Is inclined to believe that for some little
time money will not be any tighter than
It Is at present. and that the tendency will be
toward easier money. II confidence could be
| restored the trading in stocks and bonds
would soon be on q considerably larger
1t is his opinion that the actual supply OF
money is much larger than appears from
the current reports. He also thinks 1t IL
simply being held In reserve. because OF the
general lack Of confidence In corporate az
fairs.
-
Professional operators freely admit that not
for some weeks has there been any marked
pressure OF stocks on the market. and that
during this period the short accounts have
been sufficiently large at Ill times to make
sharp rallies easy OF accomplishment.
They say that while the tendency Is to
sell stocks short, 1t is not generally believed
by the most daring spectators that prices
will go much lower in the near future.
Most banking interests maintain the same
conservative position with respect to the
stock market that they took some weeks
ago. and simply reiterate the belief that
no attempt should be made just now to adj
vance prices.
In highly speculative circles the Idea Is
held that the dividend on United States
Steel common will be slightly advanced
at the meeting this month for the purpose
Of demonstrating the confidence OF the
controlling interest in the immediate future
of the iron and steel trade. and their con-
fidence. also, In general business conditions.
In conservative circles 1t IL thought that
no change will be made and that one Is
more likely to be made three months hence.

ume in general way OF this years out

to be predicting any change In the Anal
gamated Copper dividend to be declared

UNION PACIFIC THE FEATURE

Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
NEW YORK. July 17.-Price movements
in today's stock market were again very
irregular, and the dealings in respect or
activity showed spasmodic fits of activity
which were succeeded by periods OF almost
utter stagnation. The days total transact
lions. at the same time, footed up 1alr
aggregate, but would not have made SO
good showing except for the great actiV-
ity in Union Pacific. Dealings in that in
stance practically monopolized speculative
interest and were commonly attributed to
two influences.
Reports with respect to the showing
which the company will make for the
ended fiscal year were in persistent circula-
ton throughout the business session. and
while there was some variation in the pre-
dictions to the figures. all the rumors
concurred in setting forth a tremendous
surplus after dividends.
Another theory OF the inordinate activity
in Union Pacific was that the stock was be-
ing manipulated for the purpose OF facil-
itating the distribution of the convertible
bonds which were taken over by the under
writing syndicate. There was naturally
nothing TO be elected in connection with
this idea beyond the character of the deal
ingS in the stock.
A Striking Contrast
In rather striking contrast with Union Pa
cihc, Southern Pacific comparatively
heavy. Transactions elsewhere in the rail-
way list were in light volume and without
much apparent significance. The rather
marked weakness of the United States Steel
shares was beyond much doubt a restrain
ing influence upon the market at large
There was nothing at all novel or definite
TO be adduced in connection with the course
of those securities although the selling in
that direction might probably be traced to
the abandonment of the notion that the
forthcoming dividend on the common stock
would be declared at advanced rate
Amalgamated Copper was also somewhat
heavy. and the copper stocks were again
weak in the London market.
American stocks Were quoted in the lat
: ter at small and irregular changes in
prices In comparison with New York clos
