HOPE IS DISAPPOINTED
Professional Element Sees No Revival
OF Active Interest On Change
Prices WELL MAINTAINED
New Developments Are Favorable to
Values and Hating Action Of Mar
ket Proves Something of Puzzle
Favorable Street Trade Report.
nv Associated press.l

NEW YORK, July 6.-There were
hopes INDUCED In by the professional
element In ihe speculation that they
were witnessing revival of active
Interest in the stock market. III It
hope was disappointed.
The expectation was based on the
seeming eagerness of the market 10
break through the restraints imposed
upon 1t last week by the seasonable
factor OF dullness. Notwithstanding the
progress of last weeks settlements,
the short week, and the long holiday,
prices had been well maintained. For
eign markets quoted American stocks
higher. while the New York stock
exchange was closed.
There was nothing to show that
important speculative interests were
coming into the market. The opening
advance gave place TO reaction, bu'
after the advances had been wiped
our the downward movement lost
force. News developments We're IA
yorable to values and the hating ac-
ton Of the market proved something
OF puzzle
A large sentimental influence was
exercised by the heavy tone OF United
States Steel. The selling Of that
stock was based on reiteration OF the
previous reports from Paris that the
plan to introduce 1t on the Paris
Bourse had been rejected by the au-
tnorities. Besides the favorable steel
trade reports much attention was
given In the financial district to crop
news.
The bank statement published on
Saturday gave clear evidence of the
heavy strain of the July settlements,
but the easy tone OF today's marker
took away any influence from the
showing. The closing tone Of the mar
ket was uncertain

things taken under mature considers

he was the very devil of a fellow. With
what consummate skill he had played
his hand! Now the pursuit of the
Maitland burglar would be abandoned;
the news item suppressed at headduar-
ters. And it was equally certain that
Maitland (when eventually liberatedl
would be at pains to keep his part of
the affair very much in shadow.
The masouerader ventured mys-
ttcal smile at the world in general.

into his pocket and wadded another

fiicked carelessly across the table. The

At another time, and with another

inclining it carefully above the thin
stemmed glass that Hickey kept in al
most constant motion. And the de-
tective's fatuous loquacity flowed as
the contents of the bottle ebbed.
Yet, as the minutes wore on. the
burglar began to be conscious that it
was but a shallow well of information
and amusement that he pumped. The
game. fascinating with its spice OF
daring as it had primarily been, began
to pail. At length the masquerader
calculated the hour as ripe for what
he had contemplated from the begin

scant consideration, in the middle of a
most interesting exposition.
