New York, July 21.-The general
tone of the stock market is dominated
yet by the action of one or two favor

nece but this time of reaction. The
congestion of dealings in a few stocks
is evidence of the narrowness of the
market Concentrated selling today
in a few of the most influential stocks
gave the impression OF attempts at
liquidation of important accounts,
and served TO intimidate sentiment.
There were reports o. sales of as
much of $4,000 shares of Reading by
a syndicate house, and 10000 share of
United States Steel by another house
which proved impressive. The up
ward start in Union Pacific rose As
high as $780, in the first hour, es alb
fishing a new high record and giving
hopes to those who have predicted
for three days past that the price was
TO touch double par.
The adverse effect of the selling of
United States Steel proved too much
for Union Pacific, and it shared in
the later weakness OF the general
market. The serious storm reported
from the Texas coast had some de-
pressing effect on Southern Pacific,
and was of growing influence on the
whole market.
The near enactment of the tariff
bill is coming in for increasing consid.
Grafton and for conjecture over its
effect on stocks. The opinion was
heard today that seine settings might
be made by holders cesirous to escape
possible embarrassment of too numer-

the tariff passes. The tone was d..

lie said this work was all an cX-
pertinent that they had twice as

brought from Kansas; that they
were coming in at the rate of a hun
drcd a month and that they must be

lie said the estimated cost OF tne

II must be remembered that ther"
we're other things that had to bo pur-
chased. lie said they had thirty-siX
teams Of mules that cost money;
that they bought good animals and
now they were worth just as much
as they paid for them.
Then. too. he said there were
many other things they had TO buy.
They had to have plant to do this
work with: that there were four or
moro expensive machines, engines,
mixers and other articles necessary
to carry on this work which they
had TO buy. It required thousands
of barrels OF cement and the board
had to meet the expenses as they
come along.
As to the report of padded pay

such thing. He said the boys
were asking for their money; that
they had hard work to pay them each
month and had not done so but were
owing them two months pay now. lie
