STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Substantial Advance in Volume

New York, July 7.-Business was larger at the stock exchange in the two hours before noon today than yes terday, even with the sudden revival in market activity which mafkel that period This expanded volume of business was done at prices a5ove yes terdays closing and, consequently, at substantial advances over the closing level of last week. IL ocean mani
 fest, however, that very material sell
 ing to realize was going on, and this
 had the effect of carrying prices helow last nights level by noon. The sell inr, even at that level afforded hard some profits to those who hal bought stocks early yesterday As the mar gin of thes, profits lessened with the
 reaction in prices the weight of the selling pressure decreased notably. That is to say business fell away in volume and the price movement be-
 cgme sluggish. The advocates of the upward movement professed themselves well satisfied with the action of the Imarket There was considerable in. crease in buying demand attrasie over night by yesterdays rise, and tniG served as q medium for digestion cf
 profit taking sales. When the execu-
 ton of the new buying orders had been
 completed there was no disposition to bush the selling on a weak market at the serious expense of values The
 responsibility of an uncovered short interest for part of the new demand
 was provided by the number of shares borrowed for delivery which were re- | turned to the lenders today. The mar.
 ket is admittedly largely in profes sional hands and 1t Is guaged by tech nical considerations News bearing on
 actual values was not important to- day. The Interview with Chairman
 Gary of the United states Steel board on the eve of his departure for Eu-

1t is most earnestly hoped for that representative
vote will be poed in the school election Monday week. AS
have expressed through the columns of this paper be-
fore we wish now to emphasize that the question
to be determined is one of utmost Importance to all
ties. The statement is often heard that inasmuch as
certain eector has direct interest in the way of families
that he will leave the matter entirely to those who have
ments that any action taken will be with the support
of majority In reasoning out the proposition to be sub
mitted shall orsha bond the district? 1t
affirmative The school boundaries have been increased
that the major portion of the taxable property for
miles around has been taken in, greatly increasing the
the of $150 00 This will work no hardship any
individual taxpayer and will bring returns to the youth
of the community which will be everlasting, and credit
to the town. Again let US repeat come out and cast
your ballot and in doing shouldy you vote in the afrma
tive mistake will have been made.

ously and taking out ore.
Phoebe AT present raising the
usual quantity of ore, with Slopes
and stations looking especially
well. The Chicago mill COM
menced running on ore from this
mine on the 18th of the present
month, and up to the present
time the sum of 1923, 1882 has
been shipped as the result of
such run. Still sufficient ore
from that mine to keep the mill
running constantly. The fifth
station drift is now in a distance
of 220 feet from the shaft, with
eighty feet more to drive to cut
the vein. When the vein is cut
at this point the amount of ore
raised will be greatly increased,
as the developments made from
the Meadow Valley side have
shown that the large body Of
ore known to be lying there will
be cut at this point.
Strike at the Newark - We
learn from reliable authority that
during the week workmen in the
Newark mine cut into a fine body
of ore in the bottom Of the winze
now being sunk on the lower
level. The ore body shows in
the ledge from twenty inches to
two feet in width, and specimens
exhibited to us show plenty of
chlorides, slightly mixed with
good galena ore. From the ap-
pearance of the specimens we
doubt not that the ore will assay
well up in the hundreds.
