NEW YORK, June 1S.-Listless in
Inference was the dominant note in
the tone of the stock market today.
There was some extension in the ear
ly dealings Of yesterdays upward
movement. but by the expiration of
the first hour, all the buying orders
In sight had been executed and left
the market easily vulnerable to sub
seQuent reaction. The announcement
OF an engagement Of gold for export
to Paris tomorrow also served to re-
inforce the warning of depletion in
the money market resources. a
further outgo of gold on Thursday
has been taken for granted, owing to
the facilities by fast steamers sailing
on that day. Taken with the ship
ments of last Saturday and the en-
pected outgo on Thursday, tolay's
engagement already points to prac.
teal exhaustion of the surplus re-

markets were affected by this out
look and ruled at higher rates. Lon

the recent low record for upwards of
GO years past.
Some disappointment was professed
by operators in Reading over the ac-
ton of the directors OF the Central
Railroad of New Jersey in declaring
only the quarterly dividend on that
stock This was accepted, apparently
as definite REPUTATION of assertions
that a rise on the Reading dividend

Senator Foraker's Statement.

1t is thought that this claim and chal-
lenge was construed by Senator Foraker's
friends as demanding attention, and he
acted promptly. He gave out for publica-
ton last night the following statement:
Il have been so busily occupied that /
have had neither time nor disposition to
even think about politics, either state or
national, especially politics that belong to
next year
1T seems to me premature to be now
discussing what is so far ahead. How
ever. in view of the interviews and an
nouncements of one kind and another that
are appearing in the newspapers l feel
that may with propriety say that do not
want any political honOrs from the repub-
hcans of Ohio without their hearty ap-
prevail.
In order that there may be no doubt as
to their preferences, i shall, at the proper
time, request the republican state central
committee to issue call for republican
state convention, to be composed of dele
gates elected by the republicans of the
state at duly authorized primary elections,
for the purpose not only of nominating can
didateS for state offices TO be voted for at
our next state election but also to deter
mine the preference of the republicans Of
Ohio as to candidates for United States SEN
atOr and for President.
IF this suggestion should meet with
favor II should be provided that the pri-
mary elections shall be held at a conven-
lent time long enough after the call there
for has been issued to enable all who are
interested in the work of the convention so
to be chosen to appear before the people
and discuss the public questions about
which we are all concerned. so that the
people who are interested may act intelli-
gently in the selection of their delegates
thus bringing this selection as nearly to a
direct popular vote as is possible under the
laws now in force.
i have no opinions to conceal from my
constituents. and there is no point in my
public record as to which l am not ready
10 render them fun account"

Friends Have Been FESTIVE.

Senator Foraker's friends have been res
tive for several days under the increasing
assumption of the Taft boomers that their
candidate had it all his own way in Ohio
These friends of the senator have been
urging him to come out into the field and
raise his standard. about which the old
Foraker strength in Ohio could be rallied.
The senator has been very busy with the
Brownsville investigation. in which he is
deeply and sincerely interested. Besides, if
the truth were known, it probably would
be found that he was inclined to give the
Taft enthusiasts a chance for their white
alley, and did not regard the movement as
anything but an ordinary feature of the
ante-presidential campaign.
However, the limit was probably reached
yesterday when Mr.. Charles p. Taft, the
manager of the Secretary's boom, but him
self not heretofore regarded as leader in
republican state politics, issued a statement
which said:
I'VE believe that the overwhelming senti-
ment in Ohio is favorable to Secretary Taft
for the Presidency, and our efforts are to
give this sentiment concrete form, so that
it shall be expressed emphatically at the
proper time 1t is furthermore obvious that
Gov. Harris is his own logical successor
as governor of Ohio. and should have the
unanimous support of the party

THE TAFT BOOM PUNCTURED

For the past week or ten days the pro-
moters OF the presidential boom of Secre
tary Taft have been having things all
their own way out in Ohio, and just career
ing over the hull ten-acre lot, kicking UP
the dust. The Taft boom has been written
up and talked up and boosted until it be-
gan to look as If there was nothing else In
Ohio but the Taft boom.
The most optimistic claims were put out
by the managers of the boom; the state
was cinched for Taft; there was no one
else IN the running at all, and there was
nothing more to be done but to hand him
Ohio's delegates to the convention. They
even went so far as to begin to apportion
other political perquisltes. Mr.. Charles P.
Taft yesterday gave out statement say
ing that ii is obvious that Gov. Harris ''is
his own logical successor as governor of
Ohio and should have the unanimous sup
port of the party"

In the Race From Now On.

Senator Foraker will be opposed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Representative Burton and
the Taft faction. In times past President
Roosevelt has been the recipient of Senator
Foraker's favor in Ohio, and so has Secre-
fary Taft. When President Roosevelt was
facing the possible opposition of Senator

appointed Mr.. Taft to the state bench. SEN

However, conditions have changed now.
