LOS ANGELES STOCK EXCHANGE

Wednesdays market on tho exchange was
the quetest II has been for many months.
Prices while they were about the same,
showed little trading, and the lack Of interest
was something which would not be accounted
for.
There is no doubt but that the selling Of
this two million Of the treasury stock of the
Union oil company has put a quetus on the
market for the time being, as large amount
OF money win be needed TO meet the first
payment coming due on July 1, and the usual
channels likely to suffer for lack of funds.
There was no feature but the Union Rights
trading, and even these were little off from
yesterday. The bonds and bank stocks showed
no change. The market whole while
unsatisfactory, was good in the undertone and
there was practically no break.
