The brokers have no orders to buy.
and those who have stocks 10 sell are
unwilling to part with them at the low
figures offered.
An instance in point is that a broker
offered fifty shares Of one Of the street
railways at a price on Wednesday. An
other broker said he would take It about

20 accept the price bid but yesterday the
same broker would not touch the stock.

Catastrophe Is Narrowly Averted at
Canadian Sham Battle.

London, Ontario. June 25.-By the merest
chance, catastrophe was averted
in the sham battle scheduled for to-day
between 5000 troops in camp at Niagara.
While some OF the shells that were TO
be used in the battle were being exam
!ned, it was found that they were loaded.
The entire lot was then examined, and
It was found that one-fourth OF them
were loaded, instead Of being blanks, as
ordered.
