STOCK MARKET

New York. July 1.-THE stock market
stiffened after the opening this morning
and the hill stocks recovered from their
early heavineSs. Advances were not
large, however, and the trading fell of

dian Pacific showed pronounced strength,

Quotations held steady at a slightly
higher range throughout the morning
session. The undertone was firm and
there seemed to be no pressure to sell.
Southern railway was the most active
issue Of the list during the forepart of
the day and the stock rose to 80, with
in a fraction of its high points OF the
year. The inertia Of the prominent stocks
led to a movement against the specialists
which fluctuated more widely. Texas
oil rose point in response to the news
that the active head of the company
probably would recover from his serious
illness. National enameling and stamp

and Long Island railroad lost a point
each.
Bonds were steady.
The market was featureless during the
noon hour, the list in no instance moving
more than a fraction and holding at
the best prices of the day.
Leading stocks fell back steadily in
the afternoon but no attempt was made
to depress the market which grew firm
again at a range which was only frac-
tionally below the highest of the day.
