Few Days Of Activity.
RAILROAD RATES STILL DISCUSSED

(By Associated PresS).

NEW YORK. July 14.-Thc stock
market showed stendency TO slip
back into the rut of dullneSs from
which last weeks animated dealings
had stirred II until the persistent
strength of the market prompted Il re-
newad outbnrst OF buying in The final
dealings. In spite of the early dull
ness in demand there was conspicuous
scarcity of offerings of stock. This
was sufficiently marked to make it the
characteristic feature of the market.
The demand though moderate. was ct

continues to occupy position OF mi

tended action in other fields. Rc-
ports of conferences of freight traftic
officials of Eastern railroads pointed
TO the formation of plans in that
direction by those companies. A
sharp diversion from the prs valling
strength shown by the. market, was
caused by the sudden pressure" Of the
Rock Island and allied securities. The
money market wis still moderately al
{, cted by the withdrawal Of govern
lment deposits from the banks and by
the preparations for the payment OF
the final inStallmcnt OF subscriptions
ito the Union Pacific funding bonds.
Foreign exchange advanced and gold
exports were under consideration. The

 Further, what would you do if at the age of thirty-live the same chin curtains were flaming your knees?
 And still further. what would you do if at tine age of forty-five they ha grown and grown till you had to carrg them in bag around your neck SOS the sheep wouldn't get tangled in them or partrdgcs take them for cover, or you'd trip over them every time you took a step?

Sleepy. half-conscious cadets hear 1t all dreamily and not until the separated drums explode like gatling guns in the hallway of each division do they think 1t imperative or heed the sum. mons.

Ten minutes later he Is in ranks again, marching to breakfast after answering at an- other roll call.
