His integrity is beyond question
and his record in the Legislature was
a good one The fact remains, how

salisbury absolutely dominated the
State Convention at which he was
nominated This shows that If
Monaghan should be elected he would
be 'Willard's man, and we want no
more appointments like that of an
official whose term is now expiring
Salisbury is a reactionary, but he
personally selected the Democratic
candidates for the Legislature and
will control them in his own behalf
and in behalf of the interests with
whom he has been so long allied.
There are many Democrats in this
State who will not tolerate Salisbury,

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in Al
the Leading Stocks.

New York, June 17.-The one notable
feature of today's stock market was the
fact that it marked almost the smallest
volume of operations thus far in the cur
rent year. From the opening of the ses-
sion until the sound of the closing gond
trading was dull. narrow and negligible.
Professional room traders incidentally
saw no reason for trading in ventures
and as a result the movement was of the
most restricted character, except in Ger
tain OF the Spec1altleS, particularly the
Tobacco issues. Politics formed the only
absorbing topic of discussion and news
from Chicago was awaited with eager
ness Veteran observers expressed the
opinion that the market is likely TO con-
tinue in state of virtual deadlock until
after the conventions of the two leading
parties.
There was practically nothing in the
developments of the day to stimulate
trading in either direction. Crop news
rains in certain agricultural sections and
Western railway officials submitted their
usual weekly statements relative to
freight movements. These We're encour-
aging in the main, their tenor indicating
expanding trade and increasing optimism
with fairly heavy movements of mer-
ehandise and satisfactory distribution.
Prices of stocks at the opening here
were Irregular. with some weakness in
Canadian Pacific on the heavy tone of
that stock abroad. Later the general list
hardened. almost imperceptibly at first,
but in more pronounced manner towards
the end of the day, by which time Cana
dian Pacific had recovered the greater
part of its decline. Reading, which re-
flected considerable bear pressure at mo-
ments. last week. was, today, the
strength of the speculative favorites.
with late underlying strength in Union
Pacific and United States Steel. Final
dealings were attended by moderate ac-
tivity which contributed to a steady
close
Trading for foreign account here
amounted to about 5000 shares, of which
the great part was in Steel.
There were two dividend announce
ments of passing interest. one that the
Colorado Fuel & Iron Co. had resumed
payments on the preferred shares and
an increase in the quarterly disbursement
by one of the Montana copper companies.
The only feature of note in the bond
market was an advance of two points in
Wabash refunding As, Prices elsewhere
inclined to irfegularity Total transac-
tons, par value, amounted to S2,Bg,0eo.
United States bonds were unchanged on
