THE STOCK MARKET
ILLUMINATION OF AS MUCH AS QUAR-.
 TEX WAS VERY RARE.
roeDie as Was Drift of Prices it Was In consistent. Downward and Upward Without Any Apparent
 Re as1us.

New York. June 22-The stock market was at a standstil today. fluctuatlon or as much as quarter was a rarity. Feeble as was the drift of pricss It was inconsist- parent reason.
 There was a slight recoy,-y after the ap- pearance of the bank statement, which proved less unfavorable than the forecasts the deoosits and the res,rv. requirements and the cash decrease much smaller than was anticipated. It was taken fer granted however. that the weeks exports proportion of their real effect, leaving 'hat effect to be transf r.sd over into next weeks statement This expectation left a bad impression.
 The engagement of go,i for London was increased to s1.750.0o0 today in time for the outgoing steamer Fors,gn exchanyc rates were strongly maia faired today espe- cfally for cable transfers fin spite of the supply of that form of remittance supplied by the gold shipments.
 The urgent demand fo~ cable remittances was attributed to the approach of the Lon don strike market settlement regarding which some anxiety is felt in London
 The sustained strength of foreign exchange move is to be exteniei next week. The weekly reports by the mercantile agencies showed some improvement in retail trade conditions caused by the more seasonable weather but the stock market was unre- sponsive to this
 statement iiom Washington that the report of the In ite Commerce Ccmmis- sion on the Hartman 1tailroa1 investigation would be presented by July and would be considered by the attorney general With q view to legal proceedings accentuated tho stagnation in the market. The closir. tone was easy.

Three thousand and more union men are interested in the outcome of the discussions this week in regard to the new wage scale. The commercial coal operators do not apprehend any trou- ble. They believe that the miners are going to give them the same advan- tage that the non union mines have. More than fifteen thousand men are now employed in open shop min Ss and according to the statement issued by the commercial coal operators many of the union miners are leaving the union mines and going to the open shop mines because they are permitted to have laborers and can make more mon ey than by having to do all the work themselves. There is dem l for every ton of coal that can be produced and the commercial coal operators have been running their mines steadily for many months. The union labor is well thought of by the operators, that IS the labor. There were rumors for a time that while the commercial coal people were willing to renew the wage contract as far as the price of mining goes that an entire change in the work ing rules would be dem .nded. The change from a double to a single pay day a month and the day latorer with every miner constitutes the main con- cession demanded. It Is argued that wine one pay day month the miners do not lose so much time as with two pays and that with laborer much more coal Is produced. The production right now is greater in Alabama than it ever was and the product is going out in all directions
 Coke is in better demand now than 1t has been Some of the producers are still accommodating the product though indications are that there will be strong demand therefor before many days have passed. Good prices pre- yah for coke,

 Chicago, June 22.-The wheat market dis played considerable strength today despite and included little outside demand At the close September wheat was half to five eighths to 9s e %c higher. Corn was upK Ac' oats were 9sc higher. Provisions The wheat market opened quiet and steady despite the fact that Liverpool cables were lower and the weather in this country continued highly favorable for the new crop. Many speculators were evidently of the opinion that the market had become somewhat oversold in anticipation of the lower prices that were expected to follow the strike of the telegraph operators. Shorts were active buyers on this account tt fre- quent intervals throughout the session. A good demand for cash wheat was reported from the east and there were additional claims of short yields In Kansas and reports of the appearance of rust in Missouri rho being delayed and 1t is believed that serious damage will result if a much greater delay is made.
 September wheat opened shade lower to a shade higher at 94hc to }4Mc sold between 94 %c and 95%c and closed strong Clearances of wheat and flour were canal to 330.000 bushels. Primary receipts were 4S5,000 bushels. against 411.00O bushels of and Chicago reported receipts of 497 cars against 275 cars last week and 2O5 cars one year ago.
 The corn market was strong all day part ly in sympathy with wheat and also because of the large sales for export that were ef- fected yesterday. Exceptionally fine weath- CT for the crop was ignored a bearish factor. The crop in many sections is re- ported as making up lost time with great September corn opened a shade lower at 53hc sold between 53Ac and 53@c and closed strong at 53hc.

GEN. PORTER'S PLAN
AMERICAN REFRESHMENTS I
 SUBMIT PROPOSITION.
Delegates to the Hague Peace Confer enee Spent Sunday Discussing 'Con- tracted Pecuniary Debts," of
 the Governments.

The Hague, June 23.-The American delegates to the peace conference, al- though they did mot hold a general meeting, spent the entire Sunday dis cusing the proposition of the United States relating to the collection of contractual pecuniary debts, while Gen. eral Horace Porter talked over the matter of the projected doctrine with the leading European plenipetentiaries.
 General Porter gained the impress sion that neither Great Britain, France, Germany nor Russia would oppose 1t He will submit the result of his con- versations to the American delegation at meeting Monday afternoon for a definite draft of the proposition which in yesterdays written communication to the second committee was merely outlined.
 European support of the American doctrine will remove the opposition of some of the South American countries which was explained in the statement of Dr. Barbosa, president of the Bra gillian senate, to the Associated Press
 The German proposition in the mat ter of an International supreme prize court establishes its Jurisdiction and the methods of its conduct When ever the capture of a steamer is de- clared valid the steamer and cargo are to be disposed of according to the international laws of the country that captured it. If the capture is declared invalid. the steamer and cargo are to be returned and damages paid with interest; and if the steamer and cargo are destroyed, indemnity must be paid
 The international prize court will sit at The Hague and must be organized the moment maritime war Is declared If several countries are implio Ited ir the same war it is provided that the courts are number as many as each cou- ple of belligerent powers.
 The prize court will be composed oi two admirals and three members of The Hague permanent arbitration court. each belligerent power to pay $10,O00 as the initial expenses of the prize court, which will be dissolved when the conflict closes.
 The German proposition in it's amend. ed treatment of the subjects of neu, tral powers, provides that belligerents cannot employ them in warlike oper- ations, not even when they willingly offer their services
 Several countries, sucn as France Great Britain and Turkey, who allow the enlistment of foreigners in theil armies or colonial troops oppose the German proposition.
