Evening Post Col
NEW YORK, May 15-It would be
difficult to imagine a market more de-
void of interest than that which en-
gagged the attention of Wall street to-
day. Trading was perfunctory, none
of the active shares fluctuated more
than fractionally and for considerable
periods the tickers scarcely moved at
ALL There was no news to affect
prices and the heaviness of the after
noon was traceable as much as any
thing else to the virtual cessation OF
business. About the only news
development of interest was the Wash
ington story that the attorney general
had decided tentatively that the Cen
trail Pacific should be divorced from
the Southern Pacific. If true this
brings up new phase in a famous
controversy to excite the attention OF
the courts. Various rumors We're In
circulation again as to new proposals
which would be brought forward for
Strengthening out the difficulty, but
none of these apparently had basis
in fact. At any rate the market ignor'
ed them absolutely and the two stocks
most concerned, Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific, gave no response
whatever. There was fair activity in
few of the leading bond issues and
general interest was shown against the
negotiations to bid for the forthcom
ing New York city loan.
