NEW YORK, July 2S.-Incidents of the
days trading considered by SPECTATORS OF
utmost Importance were the increase IN the
dividend of Steel stocks and the rise IN
Union Pacific to above 200. In the case OF
the dividend on Steel the compromise rate
OF y OF l per cent for the quarter was
considered adroit settlement OIL per
picking problem as between the contention
for the restoration of the per cent annual
rate and retention OF the per cent rate
The 4 per cent rate would have been
feared In conservative quarters as preclpI.
tate while the retention OF the per cent
rate might have weakened the effect OF the
professed confidence In the future growth
OF earnings.
Professional operators have felt that the
price of Steel was likely to react even with
an increase in the dividend to a per cent
ratio. Buying to cover the shorts put OUT
on this theory constituted an element in the
strength, not only Of Steel but OF otheF
favorite speculative stocks.
The absence of an official statement by
the Steel company of the course OF events
since the date Of the quarterly report was
commented upon in view Of the use made OF
early intimations that such a statement
would accompany the report. Points OF
strength in the stock market held TO sus-
tain prices for which particular causes were
The rise in New York Central was oc-
casioned by renewed rumors of Hartman
investment in that stock. The soft coalers
were helped by hopes of revival OF de-
mand by awakening industrial activity. An
important short interest in Reading was be-
lieved to be covering. Amalgamated copper
suffered from the renewed fall Of the price
of copper.
Bonds were irregular Total sales, par
value, s3,512,000. Government bonds were

NEW YORK. July 28.-Eyervbody is now
waiting for the government report on cotton
which will be issued on Monday next at noon,
showing the condition of the crop up to July
o. There are a great many opinions regard
inc what this report should show, but the
character Of the reports which have been re-
ceived recently indicated that the crop has
made little If any advancement since the last
reDort was issued, and this has resulted in a
growing feeling of bullishness and more &C
tivity on the part of buyers. Trade reports
were not entirely encouraging, but had little
influence on values on the cotton market The
snot markets were firm and sales Of new CROP
cutton for fall shipment are being made at a
lower basis on futures and the purchases are
reported from time to time, and hedge sales
are being made in the future market TO pro
tect buyers against loss.

of six thousand and was considered one of the
greatest vote makers for the temperance in Hi
