WITH A SHOW OF STRENGTH
IN NOON HOUR.

NEW YORK. July 2o.-The market to-
day acted as though it had but few
friends on either side K was purely
professional, and nearly all the trading
was confined TO floor traders II is hard
to sly what kind OF news would be good
for this market There was keen dIs-
appointment in financial circles when It
was seen that such good news as the
labor troubles being settled between
the Pennsylvania railroad and its en-
ployes had no effect, which. IN ordinary
times. would cause al least two-point
advance. With such crop news coming
from crop centers il is hard 10 ten what
the real conditions are. The decline
in the grain market with such reserve
news is a mystery, but. at shat, 1t prob
ably had its good qualities, as the de-
cline IN grain and cotton had a tendency
to STAY liquidation in stocks
From conservative sources the opin-
ION is expressed that the market
looks as though II had been thorough
" Iiauidated and that IT was grad
uaIIy clearing up for fair recovery.

GRUFF OLD WINTER PAYS
CALUMET A RETURN VISIT

Calumet and the copper country were
treated to a rude surprise last night
and this morning. After basking in
the sunshine of spring for about five
weeks and enjoying the first of the
dainty spring flowers. local people
found themselves rudely plunged into
the midst of winter, with bowling
blizzard raging and snow drifts three
feet deep, in places to wade through.
The transition is a marvellous one, and
accomplished in a remarkably short
space of time.
Although the weather forecasts for
the day were not very bright, the
change from summer to winter wealth
er was hardly expected as suddenly.
The heavy rain and sleet of yesterday.
although very cold, gave little indlca-
ton of the wintry blizzard of today,
and for the residents of Calumet, many
OF whom had already discarded their
winter apparel, the result was hard
ship. Sleighs were placed i'm commits
sion again, wagons being almost use
less today. Automobiles were also
forced into retirement.
The Houghton County Street Rail-
way company placed a number of its
snow plows in commission this morn
ing to open the tracks for traffic, and
no serious delay was experienced The
railroad companies also had large
forces of men at work and kept traffic
moving, despite the fact that the snow
was very deep and heavy.

NO ACTION WAS TAKEN.

Capt. Jesse Meads of Co. A Engineer
states that no action has been taker
so far relative to the proposed trip OF

ter the inspection held last Tuesday
evening, Maj. Thomas IL. Rees of the
regular army. who acted as inspecting
officer, advised the Calumet officers
that efforts would be made TO take the
entire company TO Fort Leavenworth.
This Capt. Meads denies. asserting that
the matter was only discussed in jok-
ing way.
