WALL STREET TO-DAY.

New York, July 12.-The stock mar ket opened steady with display of strength, nearly everything traded in making substantial fractional gains. Illinois Central moved up 5-8 and the Hartman stocks were in better de- nfand. The important railroad issues including Reading. St Paul and Penn sylvania, all ranged fractionally high CT. A larger proportion of the bust ness came from commission houses than was noted during the past few days. AmalgaInated and Anacopda both made fractional gains.
 Il a. m.-The strong tone displayed at the opening continued in evidence all through the first half of the fore noon, prices in many issues in that period showing advances ranging from substantial fractions to about two points. Speculative interest was cen tered mostly in Reading in which there was some urgent covering of shorts, carrying the price up materially. H. limos Central advanced about two points. Railroad stocks generally ranged at a. moderately higher level. Smelling was the most active of the induStrials.
 Government bonds unchanged; other bonds strong.
 Noon-In the last half of the fore noon further progress was made in the upward movement. There was a per sistant buying of Reading making that stock the strongest feature and in the later forenoon Union Pacific and Southern Pacific became more prominent in the trading. Colorado Fuel advanced 1 1-2 points.

Sutton of the Marine Corps. e, -,
 Mrs: Surton has been here at tha bedside of her son. Cadet Rodardo sutton, who was seriously hurt while being hazed here.

One of the -ofncers cried out that another had ton killed himself. His mother declares he did not fire the shot which ended his life. The first court of inquiry de- clared Sutton killed himself but owing 10 ms mothers untiring efforts, Secre- tary Meyer has ordered a new hearing.
 Miss Mary L. Stewart, the Pittsbure girl on whom Lieutenant Sutton had been calling the night of the tragedy. IS said to have gone to Canada on a visit and is not expected to appear as a witness.

SAYS REFORM
 SCHOOL IS o K

Officer John H. Parrish, who has charge of running down all runaway boys from the reform school in Meri- den, came to this city today for the particular purpose of having a talk with Detective Arnold in regard to certain statements made by the local police officials, in which they claimed that it was next to impossible to place a boy in that institution if he were bad at all, because the Meriden offic- ials claim that such a. boy would set a bad example for the others.
 Captain Arnold was of the opinion that the erform school was about as fine a boarding school as there is in the country and Officer Parrish agreed with him, but wished it distinctly un- derstood that the school was ready at all times to receive those boys sent to it. Although the law says that a minor committed to the reform school shall remain there until he is 21, in many cases boys are permitted to leave when they have reached IS or 19 years if they have shown a record of good behavior while in the school
 This unwritten rule also Hops to the other extreme, for Officer Parrish says that often boys who are of bad inf1u- ence to the others are permitted to go
