NEW YORK LETTER.

New York, June 30.-The stock mar
ket was exceptionally active for a Sat
urday. The tone throughout this short
session was strong and buoyant with
prices scoring gains varying from one
half point to a point and half The
usual active specialties furnished the
chief features The grain carrying
roads displayed remarkable strength.
Fundamentally this is at IS should be

with yesterdays closing figures
IL is said in the street that the Stand
ard Oil Interests are decidedly favor
able to a higher range Of values for
railroad securities. but the market
lacks sufficient Impetus to bring shout
a broad bull market at present. Never
tbeiess. brokers that usually operate
for Standard OIL interests have been
large purchasers of stocks and have
been pronouncedly bullish In their com
ments upon the market Although the
clique alone cannot produce a rampant
bull market. they can keep It active and
gradually induce public following.
There Is more or less manipulation in
evidence during the past few days.
This in a measure has become neces-
sary in order to revive speculation and
if possible create a short interest in
the market There must be an incen-
tive of some kind to boost prices An
oversold condition of the market is
one of the best factors TO bring about
higher values

influence which caused the reaction.

WANT RIGHT OF WAY BETWEEN
CROWN POINT AND GARY.

Representatives of the Chicago New
York Air line appeared before Chair
man Farley. of the Railroad Committee
of the Crown Point Business Mems as
ISOLATION. yesterday for the purpose
OF securing the right-of-way between
that place and Gary. Dir. Farley could
give him no encourag cement. however,
as President Burlington of the Gary
and Hammond electric road had al
ready secured an option on the deeds.
1t was stated to Mr. Farley that if
given the privilege OF buying the air
line would begin construction on the
road at once, the line TO serve as a
feeder TO the main line being con-
structed between Goshen and Chicago
Tt IS probable that their proposition
viii be accepted If the officials of the
Gary and Hammond line do not take
advantage of the sixty day option
which they now hold.
Those who visited the county seat
yesterday in the interests of the Air
Line were Mayor barrow of La Porte,
Attorney Miller. and r. E. Sears. a
member Of the town board Of Gary.

The market at the opening was
rather strong and fairly active, and
while stocks appeared for sale, prices
We're being marked up until the clos
ing hour when on the announcement
that the city bonds sale was a fail
ure. prices quickly reacted and the
higher priced issues lost about two
points. while the lower priced shares
lost in proportion. No bids for city
bonds show the overcrowded condition
of the bond market and with the gen
eral pessimistic feeling as to the in
vestment in this line everywhere, it is
only natural that this sale would not
prove a success. The banks are not
over anxious to loan money and in
vestors can do better than getting 4
per cent on their money, hence no call
from this quarter. Otherwise the sit
uation is rather fair. and we think this
is a good traders market. and stocks
can be bought on reactions but should
be sold on any fair advances.

1t was reported in banking circles
this morning that a syndicate was in
process of formation which would bid
for the $4,000 900 city bonds to be
offered this afternoon on condition that
Controller Metz would allow whatever
portion of the funds received from the
sale as were not needed Immediately
to lie on deposit with the banks COM
posing the syndicate for two or three
months. No confirmation of this re-
port could be obtained and in fact the
majority of bankers declared that they
knew nothing about any syndicate ex-
cept from rumor. Men connected with
some of the most prominent institu-
lions, nevertheless, said that they had
every reason to believe that the sale
would be a success.
