BALDWIN LOCOMOTIVE
AT NEW HIGH RECORD
Local fractions Firm Despite
Jitney Inroads-Commission
Houses Cautious.

The hesitating tone Of the New York
! market was reflected In the Philadelphia
| list for q time today, but the chiet re-
suit was to curtail the volume OF trans trans
actions rather than to depress prices ap,
| preciably Baldwin Locomotive ignored
the wavering tendency and moved up
about points to a new high recoru'
Electric Storage Battery and PennsyiNa-
MIA Salt were other firm spots.
Prospect of an ordinance to regulate
jltneys Offset the startling figures given
to Councils by the company purporting 10
show how hard the new traihc hao M.
the trolley system. The street seemed
Inclined to think that Mr.. Ballard ng
ures we're somewhat exaggerated. Az an
events Union Traction moved up trac-
tionally, while Rapid Transit held steauy.
II looks now as II there was chance that
work on the proposed Brond streeV SUI
way and Frankford elevated might actu-
ally begin soon judging by the passage
through both branches OF Councils OF the
resolutions providing for extra sessions
on June 23 and 30 for the purpose OF act
ing upon the various pending transit loan
legislation, so that part OF the contracts
can be let out of the S6,O00,000 before the
summer is over
In the afternoon n sharp recovery oc-
Cured In General Asphalt which, after
selling down to 33Js, rose to SoHs, gam
of n full point over last nights final tlg-
ures. Investors were picking up Penn
sylvnnia on the showing OF idle cars,
which decreased markedly during the
past fortnight. It is known, too that
the big systems business through the
first half of June was extremely good,
and officials of the road say they look
for steady improvement from now on.
Slight recesslons were registered In
Lehigh Navigation, Cramp ShipouildlnE'
United Gas Improvement, United states
Steel and Lake Superior during the morn
ing, but in no instance were offerings
extensive. Commission
houses were advising the acceptance OF
profits recently accumulated with view
OF repurchasing on any marked reaction
The feeling in conservative quarters ap-
peared to be that the market had been
a little wild Of late and that 1t
required curbing, but confidence was eX-
pressed that the general tendency would
remain upward for some time to come.

STORM REPORTS
STTFFENED WHEAT
Prices Rose Over a Cent at the
Opening - Corn and Oats
Also Advanced.

! CHICAGO, July 1s,-A rush to buy az
| the opening today gave an upward I'M
! petus to the market July wheat opened
/ at SiO5, ia cents gain over the closing
price OF yesterday. September at SLOa
/ advanced ~ and December at S1.O6 was
! u higher than yesterdays final figures.
| The shorts, who had sold on adverse
weather reports and with the belief that
the Dardenelles had been forced, bought
back at losses
The market remained firm throughout
the afternoon and closed on an average
of about ~ cents above last night.
Rapid and diverse weather report soon
made the market nervous, and general
decline followed But the report OF
cyclone In the West added some strength.
Should the tornado turn out to be as bad
as 1t Is reported an advance is looked
for. A more favorable foreign forecast
is expected.
Corn and oats showed the same tend
ency as wheat. There was an advance
at the opening and then a decline, al
though the undertone appeared stronger
than that OF wheat.
The continued wet weather makes the
JulySshorts feverish. II may mean a late
movement. Recourse to old wheat may
be necessary to fill orders. Millers fear
the new wheat will contain go much
moisture that It will require considerable
time to dry before 1t ls fit for grinding.
Cold weather and rains are holding back
the crops of the Northwest, according TO
current reports.

who are making high-grade, report busi-

There appears to bo little change in
the conditions as reported last week in
the hardware line. While seasonabls
goods seem to be in good demand and
prices are remaining firm, the volume Of
business is not SO large as is ordinarily
seen at this time of year. Collections are
by no means normal, but are reported as
being slightly better than heretofore.

READING RAILWAY MAY USE
PENNSY'S CAMDEN TERMINAL
Raising of Rent and Adjustment of
Ferry Privilege Cause of Deal.

It is understood that informal negotia-
uons, which have been in progress at
various times during the last few years,
Tor the South Jersey lines or the Phila-
delphia and Reading Railway to use the
Camden passenger terminal of the Penn,
sylvania Railroad, at the Federal street
Ferries, have been renewed Several con-
ferences have been held by committees OF
otieials OF both roads, but definite details
OF the proposed terminal agreement have
not been reached.
II negotiations are successful the Read
ing Will abandon its plan for building a
new passenger terminal at Kaighn's Point
20 replace the station recently burned
The Camden City Council asked for an
Increased rental and then abolished the
ferry privilege held by the Reading al
kaighn avenue, and the difficulty OF oh
tanning another suitable terminal site
caused that roads officials TO renew ths
old idea OF seeking accommodation at the
Pennsylvania terminal.

GENERAL DOWNWARD
TENDENCY in STOCKS
Only Strength Shown Was in
Specialties-$2, 100000 More
Gold From Canada.

NEW YORK, June 1s.-operations OF
the Stock Exchange today were virtually
a repetition OF the previous four days this
week, except that reactionary tendency
appeared after the outset, whereas OF
previous days the opening was generally
strong. few OF the specialtles showed
some strength, but not to amount "a
anything, and the general trend was
downward Business, which was smaller
was almost wholly confined TO the pro-
fesslonal element on the floor, and there
was a disposition to restrict commitments
until the outlook in the foreign exchange
market is brighter and also the interna-
tlonaI situation.
Before the opening there were reports
OF n severe cyclone in the Middle West,
and this retarded trading In measure
and was also responsible TO some extent
for the reaction. No direct confirmation
Of the big storm was forthcoming. Early
reports had 1t that considerable damage
was done. In the grain market the re-
ports Of heavy crop damage had the effect
OF boosting prices.
The market was steadied TO con-
siderable degree by Steel common, which
was strong during the morning session,
and was the most important feature. The
strength was attributed to the announce
ment that the company intends to build
new plant at a cost of 100000, for the
Oh HulpnuTlC HGlu ana AlUCt
this being regarded as an indication OF
confidence in the future business In
addition, trade reports were more opti-
mistic. Railroad shares, which have been
very dull for some few days past, were
particularly inactive today, the demand
for these issues being very light. The
pressure against Steel became large in the
afternoon and It, too. dipped below the
closing of yesterday.
Distllers Securities was again strong.
being UP nearly 2 points before noon.
General Motors also advanced. but lost
some Of It's gain. Federal Mining and
Smelling sustained further losses. the
common dropping over 10 and the pre-
ferred ove' points.
Following reports received on the floor
that tho Western storms had not done
as much damage as at first expected,
the market improved slightly in the aft
ernoon, but the betterment was not very
pronounced, and business continued light
After a show OF weakness late in the
day there were moderate recoveries be-
fore the close. Baldwin showed a gain
of nearly 2a points.
On the movements Of money this week
the New York banks gained $40, ,2i4, 900.
They received s10OI4,OOO from the interior

cluding s1,21O.000 national bank notes sent
