ADVANCE CHECKED
Although Yesterdays stock Marke
Was Mixed-Rses in Some and
Backset in Others.

New York, June "a check came
TO the advancing tendency Of prices
today although the action of the mar
ket was still mixed. Here and there
prices continued to rise, but in Other
Quarters there was a sharp backset
IReading especially was under quit
Severe pressure and the appearance
|pf some important liquidation in thai
lstock was of notable sympathetic eff
Lfect Oh the whole list.
Another center of strong sentimen
tal influence was United States Steel
Tin which the recent persistent and
prolonged advance gave way TO re
action of point. Its upward rush
to Ga in the fi1al hour had strong
restorative Influence on the whole
list. The volatile extreme OF the lat
ter stages on its rise had caused. fears
|of probable elimination The lisa
ing of steel stocks on the Paris boursa
attracted more than usual attention.
especially abroad, and there was much
favorable comment Cn the move at
home.
When steel stock started upwards
to new high level late in the day.
its strong sentimental Influence wa
.eXerted in the recovery in the whole
list The uncertain tome of the mar.
ket was aggravated by the heavy tone
developed in the bond market and the
fear thus engendered that the market
was becoming surfeited with new IS
sues The action of Atchison issues
in the face of the announcement OF the
new AtchisOn convertible bond issue
was regarded as rather suggestive
The stock and older convertible is
sues ran off although the Subscription
privilege of 104 for new bonds repre-
sent valuable rights for th6aetock
based on the ruling price for the older
convertible issue
A good deal of attention was paid
TO the crop news and the estimates of
private experts coming to hand were
taken as foreshadowng poor show
ing III the government report OF con
ditions, looked for next week. The
weekly bulletin of the weather bu
reau was not calculated to allay THU
apprehension, indicating the persis
tence Of some unfavorable climatic
cCr ditious.
Another marking up Of the price %
flour was an incident of the dan.
growing ont of the scanty wheat sun
ply The marking up of copper did
not prevent copper industrials from
figuring conspicuously IN the early re.
dictionary movement OF prices. The
engagement of a million dollars gold
for export to Franco was not much
needed, the plethoric conditions OF
the local Money market being as
much feared as it is approved.

It even reaches across the ocean for victims
 The federal government. he said, is doing all it can to suppress the traf- fife. but 1t is hampered by a supreme court decision that this is a matter with which the police power of the states should deal He urged mem- bers of the W. c. T. U. to influence their state legislators to pass more drastic laws on this subject Dr. Jan ney is chairman of the national vigil lance committee for the suppression of the white slave traffic.
 John Marshall assistant general at torney of Kansas. discussed interstate traffic in liquor. He favored a COR gressionaI enactment, making it un- lawful to ship liquor into prohibition territory. declaring that congress is barred by the constitution from dele gating its authority over interstate trade to the states. He said that Sen ator Curtis and Representative Miller of Kansas had promised to introduce the necessary bill at the next session of congress.
