STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Prices Move With Same Uncertainty
 as on Previous Day.

New York, Aug. 1sAIn Its essential features today's stock market was largely q repetition of yesterdays Prices moved with the same uncertain ty, the buying and selling representing for the most part the operations of the special element. Trading during the carly session was in large volume than on tho previous day but later became llstless. There was an earlier drive against Great Northern and Northern Pacific based on rumors of the serious illness of James ] Hill Although theee reports were soon denied those stocks were heavy throughout Part of the days board room gossip dealt with the possibility of 8 reduction in the Great Northern and Northern Pacific dividends Inasmuch as action on these dividends Is still some two months off. such talk was not taken seriously There Is doubtless some confidence for the belief that the chewing of the Hill lines has been disappointing, and this together with the discouraeing utter anCes of the tituar head of these prop critics has served to subject them to unusual pressure. There was marked weakness also in st, Louis and San Francisco 2d pfd and New York Cen tral dropped abruptly under short selling, which was attended by rumors of some more financing in the interest of that property.
 In the industrial group American Smelling and Amalssmated Copper both were active and strong, in spite of the belief that conditions in the me tai trade are less favorable than they were fortnight back The days bud get of news included the aeceptarces of the republican candidate for vice president which excited little interest; further efforts to settle the labor diff ferences on the Lackawanna line; less likelihood of q strike ,by the Indiana hitun1inous coa miners reports that charges are to be preferred against the Atchison and Southern Pacific roads for increasing freight rates and the pub licstion of our July foreign trade re e port The latter exhibit showed that our exports have fallen off over s25,- GOO 900 coi11apred with the same month last year while imports have declined over 3s,000.000, Tn the final hour to- day the shorts were hastily driven to cover by sharp upward move in
