that the decision in the commodity clause would be favorable to the railroads, and there was some buying of Reading on this theory. If there is any truth in the report 1t was not reflected in the action of the market.
 Recent weakness of Illinois Central stock has attracted attention. In some quarters the reason given is that there has been some selling against rights of the new issues of $14,250,0OO. Subscriptions for this stock will not be received after July [.
 Conservative bankers said today that Illinois Central is worth much more than its present quotation, and that the recent selling of the holdings of Stuyvesant Fish and his following should have favorable influence on the stock, as 1t eliminates the agitation between Fish and Hartman.

 Futures opened quiet, unchanged to 2 points above the close yesterday. The weather report was favorable, but Liv- erpool was somewhat better than expect ed and this feature more than offset the principal bearish factor. Considering the lack of sales, the market showed a very steady tone, regardless of the absence of anything like ringside activity. There was not the usual demand for July option which, through lack of manipulation, showed tendency to recede in value, and at the close was points down.

London Stock Market.

London, June 27.-The stock exchange has seen another sluggish week. It has been chiefly occupied with the settlement which was satisfactorily arranged. AL though business is at such a low ebb there has been no marked falling off of prices, and the tone of the markets has been generally better during the week. New capital issues continue unchecked, but the public is showing reluctance to absorb. The underwriters of the Swedish loan of 915000,000, issued In this city June IT, have been left with 97 per cent of the issue on their hands.
 Cheap money with the further reduction in the Bank of England's rate of discount to per cent failed to infuse activity into the gilt-edged section of the market. Foreigners were unsettled, but even the Persian troubles do not appear to have had much direct influence on prices. The business in American railroad securities was quite normal. A revival Is expected pending further developments in the pres idential campaign as a result of the cer- tainty of good crops. The market during the week has been heavy and prices have ruled rather lower than last week. The final tone was dull and steady.
 Discount rates show little change ex- cept a slight hardening due to the money requirements in connection with the stock exchange settlement
