STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Stocks Show ACtivity-IrreguIar
at Close.

Convention deadlock still lowered over
the market at it's opening yesterday, but
there was the same display Of underl'-
ing strength that has followed the mar
ket for the last several days. There was
an indisposition either to sell or buy'
as the shadow Of uncertainty hung HE
a pail of smoke over the traders and
suggested anything and everything from
fire at Baltimore to a pitched bate
between the Clark and Wilson FORCES
Brooklyn Rapid Transit continued its
jumping to higher levels. irrespective oi
politics or temperament OF the "hoie
market. Interboroughs also were strong

ord In expectation Of melon cutuhs'

Union Pacific and Reading also eXhioited
strength at their openings. AS usual
during the several days when politics
has cast an underlined influence over the
market, there was a period OF dulness
following the first spasm of trading M
the market opened, and stocks solo on
from their high points. The Texas Com
pany attracted attention first because
the stock continued it's bullish range
and second when in the dull period the
stock sold off from its high figures Moore
and Schley appeared with buying orders
and the dope artists were given an op-
portunity 10 figure and guess what the
import of the buying suggested. Later
the announcement was made that the
Texas Company had been awarded the
contracts for supplying oil and gasolene
to- the United States navy and to supply
all lubricating oils to be used by the
Isthmian Canal, and the buying incen-
tive was explained. Brooklyn Rapid
Transit during the day touched its high
est point since the famous Flower boor,
In that stock. This was in 1899, and on
April Is the stock touched 1871. Brook
lyn Rapid Transit and the fictitious sup
port Of its bullish movement was demon
strated on the death Of Governor Flower,
after which the stock sold down below
par. 1t then paid no dividends, but now
pays 5 per cent, and there is some rea-
son for it's upward tendency. Central
Leather displayed some good buying and
I tho general impression was that impor-
/ tant interests were being represented.
| During the last half hour a raid was
made on the market when the news OF
the nomination Of Woodrow Wilson FOR
President reached the floor OF the ex-
change. Stocks generally closed off from
their high points of the day and some
below Mondays closing. Good support
apparently was given on the decline

Of an encouraging nature, but the atti-
tude was apathetic, and the bear follow

money in London did not stimulate any
public interest, and the situation was

Keith's teeth clinched. and he had to
struggle to control his passion. But
no: that would never do: he must dis.

and suddenly he started back at the
