STOCK MARKET IN
LISTLESS MOOD

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-The stock mar
ket fell into a hstless mood today, sug-
sestive of the passing of the influences
most relied on to stimulate price move
ments. The last of these was the crop
report and its effect in attracting new de-
mand to the stock market was negligible,
Judging from today's lethargic trading. The
professionals who attempted to anticipate
the expected profit taking by shorts yes
terday were compelled TO cover up their
shorts today. This bear covering was
sponsible for a large part of the strength
shown in the early market. The covering
operations concluded, there was no inclina-
ton apparent TO push the advance.
1t is not improbable that the stiffening
call loan rate had an influence in restrain
ing the operations for a further advance in
prices. Call loans were made above the
per cent rate from the outset and were
taken at the rate readily by borrowers. The
immediate cause of the higher, rate yes
terday and today was the weak bank
turn Of Saturday and the heavy payment
for customs duties which were incident to
the rush of imports to anticipate the en- =
forcement of the new tariff law. From
interior money markets come reports of
hardening interest rates.
Among the special points of strength in
today's stock market Rock Island was con-
spicuous and with considerable effect on
speculative sentiment, owing to the sus-
pected identity Of the controlling interests
in the property and the most aggressive
forces in the present stock market. The
growing earnings of the Rock Island COM
pany gives occasion for speculation over a
resumption Of the dividends on the pre-
ferred stock suspended since the autumn
of 1905. The preferential right of the SUI
perior stock to dividends, limited to per
cent when they were paid before, will
rise to per cent in 1910 and to per
cent in 1917.
Tie copper group was strengthened by
the July statistics of the copper pro.
duoers' association. The month reduction
in stocks of S2,2el, 454 pounds represents
more than half the total reduction which
had occurred from the maximum surplus
on April 30 last.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, So, ass, 900.
United States bonds were unchanged on
call.

Potatoes. onions and Vegetable.

temporary shortage of supplies sent prices
for tomatoes up sharply yesterday and in the
afternoon buyers were willing to pay small
advance the quotations fer choice.
The scarcity due to the fact that shippers
had become tired of forwarding eonsignments
at the low prices obtained at the close Of last
week. The other vegetables were little easier
than Monday, though stocks were less eX-
cessive than Saturday. Green still
very much depressed on large arrivals and light
trading. The potato market steady, with
the shipping demand absorbing large lines Of
common to choice stock. Onions were quiet
