STAGNANT FEW
DEALS RECORDED

NEW YORK, July 3.-Wall Street
opening. 10 a. m.-Only a half dozen of
the usually active stocks figured In the
opening transactions today, and of
these non varied more than an eighth
from last nights prices.
IL a. m.-Stock market fluctuations
were not wide enough to call for COM
ment during the first hours transac-
tions, and the dealings were the small
est recorded since the ~stagnation In the
market set in.
Noon-Transactions were at long In
tervals in only a few stocks. Republic
Steel preferred rose 1 and American
Smelling preferred IN. Bonds were
steady.
1 p. m.-The volume of trading dimin-
ished progressively, that for the hour
between IL and 1 o'clock reaching only
5000 shares, making an aggregate for
the three hours business of only $1,000
shares.
D.. m.-U. s. Rubber first preferred
advanced a point. Otherwise the list
was unaltered.
8 p. m.-The market closed steady,
but without much sign of life. Prices

TRADING WAS
NOT BRISK AS
USUAL LOCALLY
Sales Comparatively Few During
Week of Uncommon
Dizziness.

The local market during the past
week showed sales considerably under
normal, and with net changes in quo
tations confined wholly to the gas and
traction issues, and only at small frac-
tons, there was nothing to distinguish
the general tone and trend of the mar
ket. Business in both the bond and
stock department was quiet, and that
was the essential feature during the
entire week. The prices tended to shade
a little off this week, but the general
list through it's inactivity managed to
maintain a fair average of stability.
The comparatively weak showing in
the volume of business Is entirely due,
it is said By brokers, to the inability of
the public and large financial institu-
tions to come into the market as buy
ers. Money continues to be easy at 5
per cent, but loans car be had only on
good collateral.
Among the transactions made the gas
issues stood out the most prominent.
Essex and Hudson was disposed of
around lis; South Jersey Gas was
sought for lis to 115A. and some New
ark Consolidated Gas found buyers

SECRETARY TO WITHDRAW MILLIONS.

WASHINGTON. July 3.-The Secre-
tary of the Treasury has issued official
notice of the withdrawal of $45, 900, 900
OF public funds from the banks of the
country. This action was no surprise,
having been quite generally expected
In view of the deficit of public revenues
resulting. among other influences. from
the severe decrease in customs duties,
which fell during the fiscal year Just
ended SAT, 550, 900 below the receipts of
the preceding fiscal ear, and to that
extent reflected the business depression
and its resultant decline in imports of
iuxuries and other items. Internal
revenue receipts were in round num-
bers $50, 000.O 900 below those of the pre-
ceding fiscal year. so that 1t was quite
natural that the government should be

banks of the United States In the form

In the traction list Public Service
certificates stood out conspicuously and
alleviated the market from a complete
ly down-and-out week, as far as tran
sactions were concerned. Blocks of
these certificates, offered on the market
at 67A, were readily taken, and more
could be disposed of at the same price,
but holders seem to be holding fast for
a higher bid.

Judge AnderSon's Ruling Con-
Cernlng Freight Interchange
Between Roads at MunCie
May Have Weight.
SUPREME COURT MAY NOT
ACT ON LOCAL CASE.
It Matter Is in Jurisdiction of
Federal Court. Richmond
Will Never Get the Junction
OF Lines.

VIII or will not the action of Judge
A b. Anderson Of the indianapolis
federal court in dissolving the re-
straining order against the Big Four
and the Lake Erie and Western rail
road. prohibiting them from refusing
freight interchange with the c. c. &
l.. and the Muncie Belt railroad. ef-
feet the local freight interchange
case?
This is a question now being asked
here. In the local case the Indiana
Railroad commission issued an order
requiring the Pennsylvania TO inter
change freight with the c, c. & l.. in
this city, In the Muncie case the Del
aware circuit court issued the re-
straining order, which Judge Ander-
son dissolved yesterday. after the case
had been appealed to the railroad
commission.
The defendant roads set out that
les was affected by the restraining or
der. and that the railroad commission
had no authority TO prosecute any ac.
tion IN relation 10 the interstate bust.
ness. This was the view OF the matter
taken by Judge Anderson.
In the local case the Indiana Rail.
road Commission took direct action
and ordered the PENNSYLVANIA to in.
terchange freight with the c. c. & |.
in TINS city. This action on the part
OF the commission was appealed 10
the supreme court by the Pennsylva.
MIA company.
Now that Judge Anderson has ruled
that the railroad commission has no
authority to act in the Muncie case,
which is similar to the local case. be-
cause it is one which affects inter-
state commerce, local shippers and
railroad men are wondering If the su.
preme court will not taken Judge An
derson's ruling as a precedent and
refuse 10 pass on the local case as
being one under the Jurisdiction of the
federal court
In Muncie it is feared that the ac-
tion of Judge Anderson will result in
congestion of freight
The Muncie Belt road was one OF
the petitioners against the Big Four
and the l.. +. & w. in the Injunction
proceedings. Ii Tccited that it's sole
business was with the switching and
handling of freight and passenger
trains between various railroad COM
panies and that the defendant COM
pany had served notice to the public
that it would discontinue the inter.
change OF traffic, thereby greatly af.
fecting the business of the petitioning
company.
The dissOlvement of the restraining
order practically means that the Big
-Four and the L. +. & W. companies
are not compelled 10 interchange
freight with the connecting lines. The
two roads have been waging a bitter
fight against the Chicago. Cincinnati
& Louisville railway, a new road;
which has been making great strides.
The order particularly affected the
Muncie Belt line. as the latter acted
as an agent in transferring cars from
one road to another
Shippers were frightened at ths
time the ultimatum was issued by the
Big Four and the L. T. & W. and the
matter was Immediately presented to
the railroad commission.
