FIRST HOUR is WEAK

NEW YORK, June 1f.--Quoted
values pursued an irregular course in
today's market, finally closing at sub
s,antiai gains for leading shares on
fair aggregate of business for the
session General weakness IN Lon
don affected American Issues AZ least
alphabetically. but only in the first
hour did the Wall Street share list
feel the lower prices made earlier
abroad. Before midday the market
rallied sharply. and. although sub
3ecied TO moderate pressure there
after. ruled firm in the main and
hardened IN the late dealings.
There was nothing 10 chow that
trading was other than professional
and In the first two days OF the week

lions following last weeks violent re

prices were likely to remain in

rev the downward trend.

Foreign Dispatches Bearish.
The Industrial quarter of the lis

OF signs that industrial reaction was
proceeding abroad rather rapidly
Foreign dispatches told of persistent
weakening Of copper metal and de-
Ginning iron markets on the European
continent.
The European money strain liz en-
phasized by the appearance Of a ten
tative German inquiry for short loans
to carry over the midyear settle
ments. The bid was not attractive

from the fresh rise of discounts a

WALL STREET GOSSIP.

The most marked feature of the
session today was the irregularity dis
played by prices. This was true both
as regards the main trend OF the
market and the movements OF in
dividual stocks. Throughout there
were numerous cross currents and no
general tendency could be observed
The market opened lower. there was
q noon. or as II il dubbed. Cocktail
rally, which took quotations to about
the high OF the day, a period or
weakness followed in the afternoon,
and there was another recovery be-
fore the close. AS regards individual
movements there was curious lack
Of uniformity. Reading, Lehigh Val
ley, Northern Pacific. New Haven and
Intermetropolitan preferred all moved
to new high prices on the present
recovery from last weeks low, while
steel went TO a new low level since
the fret brisk uprIshing low Of last
"Wednesday. Although there was an
entire absence OF excitement quota
lions for the active stock covered a
lot at ground, Fluctuations were fire.
quently Ia Of a point or even more
between sales. Union Pacific was par
t4cularly prominent in this regard, in
dscating a good deal Of nervousness
The chief result Of big break in
las!on Of long and short contracts ara
a remaking of more contracts lower
down. The net effect upon the float
ing supply OF stocks may be small
The actual consumption of stock by
investors who remove their pur-
chases from the Street may reduce
the supply. But the volume OF out
side liquidation may greatly. II not
entirely nullify this influence. 1t will
take fresh liquidation either local or
outside at this point TO put the stock
market down much further. A con-
t.nuance of investment buying or a
making OF fresh contracts for the ad-
vance will put II UP. The large Dor
rowing demand prevailing at the pres
ent time Is not considered much Of
factor as regards the local condition
Of the market. This particular de-
'vefupruent rs accounted Tor on the
theory that commission houses who
have liquidated large blocks OF stock
for their customers which have been
financed with time loans are obliged
to borrow the stock sold pending the
maturity of these loans.

the Southern railroads would want at
least seven through tracks crossing
Main street. These tracks would be
in addition to double track viaducts on
the exerme east and west sides,
making In all. fourteen tracks cross
ing Main street.
In order to avoid the crossing of
tracks by passengers, the waiting
rooms and concourse would be on the
ground floor above high water. con-
nected with each platform by q pas
senger elevator and pair of steps. The
waiting room and concourse would
extend across the alley between Main
and Franklin streets. This alley would
have to be closed.
The Baggage Room.
The baggage room of about twenty
five thousand feet floor area, would be
placed on level Of waiting room floor.
l. e., above high water line. and con-
nected with Franklin street at points
above high water marks by roadway.
This baggage room would be connect
ed by freight elevator with each plat
form. The track platform should ex-
tend to a point north of Broad street
to accommodate modern heavy trains
The leads would come together above
Clay street.
1t would be unpracticable to have
an entrance on Broad street. because
there would be the same necessity for
all facilities for passengers and bag
gage at that street as would be re-
quired at Main street.
In re-car service-The following
lines pass Main-Street station:
Main street, Broad and Main. Oak
! wood and Main and Clay street; four
in all.
The following lines pass the West
Broad site:
Broad and Main, Broad and TWEEN
ty-fifth and the Westhampton three
in all.
across the James River at about
Laurel street to connect with South
Richmond
/ 1t would be a small thing to ask
of the street car company to loop the
| lines using the uptown bridge so as
| to pass the Broad street station. If
/ that is done, the street car facilities
would be better than that at Fiji
teenth and Main streets. The street
car company always has diverted cars
to the State fair grounds whenever
anything is going of Importance, and
I am sure that 1t would do so when
ever there was expected n rush of
passengers either incoming or out
| going. With the space that your
company has on Broad street, it is
possible to lay spur traction tracks
so cars can be held awaiting incom-
ing important trains.
A rough estimate Of a station to
meet all requirements at Fifteenth
and Main streets is as follows:
Head house ........... $1,000, 900
Train sheds 80. ..... $4,000
