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

New York, July 9-Securities Of rec
ognized merit were again disposed today
to break away from the depressing in
fluence which recently held them in
check. Additional low records by the
Gould issues, Rock Island collateral
& Ohio shares were without much effect
upon the seasoned dividend and invest
ment shares.
The further decline in the Goulds was
still without definite explanation, but
New Haven's differences with the depart
ment of justice arising from the Boston
& Maine situation and ruling adverse
TO Chesapeake & Ohio by the Interstate
Commerce Commission were the immedi-
ate causes affecting those securities.
To the glowing crop outlook and sug-
gestions of settlement of existing fed
eral reserve situation in manner salts
factory to conservative financial inter
ests were helpful influences. Trustwor-
thy advices pointing to marked improve
ment in the steel industry were again at
hand. 1t is expected that the tonnage
report of the United States Steel Corpor-
alton for Junt will show at least a slight
increase instead of the reverse. Some of
the larger iron mills are said TO be book
ing orders for August and September at
net advances of 81 to 81 over recent
prices.
About the only discordant note came
from abroad. Irregular weakness was
shown by London, which once more sold
American stocks at home and here. Paris
cables indicated that the new French
loan hau failed to stimulate any degree
of enthusiasm.
The local bond list showed varied deal
ings. with a few changes. except in the
Goulds. Total sales, par value, were
81 S04 900. United States government bonds
were unchanged on call.
