FINANCE AND COMMERCE

New York. July PA violent reac- ton in the market sent stocks advanc- ing by leaps and bounds, where yester- day they were breaking without a sign of resistencc. Speculative sentiment underwent a transformation. Exeten- sive liquidation yesterday afforded great relief, and to this was added. ac- cording to rumOr. important private settlements whereby embarrassed ac- counts were taken over, thus avoid ing a continuance of the sacrifice or securities in the market where the de- mand was we'll nigh paralyzed. The brighter feeling was due to percep- tion of the fact that the acute trou- ble yesterday was not widespread but confined to limited area. This con vicition was enhanced when Rock ls- land took a further slump early Many rumors were current of shifting of newly acquired holdings of railroad stocks. pursuant to ambitious plans or merging in the coal fields. Bonds were stronger. Sales, $9S0,OOO. United States bonds were unchanged.
