New York, July 7.-Bradstreets re-
view OF trade for the week ending to-
morrow will say:
Warm weather has improved retail
trade, enlarged sorting-up orders and de-
veloped better crop conditions. but sea-
sonal recessions, half yearly inventories,
holiday observances and disposition to
feel out the price situation have super
induced slight pause in some OF the
larger lines.
Temporary claim fails to detract from
the extraordinary good outlook, which
presages excellent business for months
10 come. Indeed, current business is far
above the seasonal normal, considerable
of the inevitable slack having been
offset by government purchases of sup
plies, while at the same time the market
for finished steel is propped up by for
eign business, actual or prospective
which development minimizes the recess
sion in straight domestic contracts, speci-
hcations on which are coming out freely,
and old material of steel and iron, droop-
ing for three months, has taken an up
ward turn.
Very little is heard OF summer shut
downs, inventories are being rushed,
and. in fact. the general tendency is to
work at relatively high speed where pos
sible. but scarcity of labor, of materials
or taking of vacation retards outputs"

MARKET RULED BY
REACTIONARIES
Heavy Opening Followed by
Gradual Weakening of All
Standard Stocks.

New York July TN todsy's stock
market there was a resemblance to
yesterdays unsatisfactory session and
while there was still something Of a
cleavage between standard rails and
industrial specialties, the strength of
the former was not as uniform as on
yesterday. There was an sccentuation
of the weakness OF munition stock and
copper Issues
Apart from a further weakening of
copper and zinc. the former declining &
$50, and the latter Sre.5O per ton
abroad, news developments had not
much to do with the days consider
ations Remaining factors rather than
new ones more largely affected the gen
eral movement. The more important
is the growing belief that there will
be a still further diminution of NUM-
tion orders. Speculative interest in
Clines to the belief that the progress
of the allies drives makes for early
peace.
At the opening the general tone in
Clined to heaviness. especially appar-
ent in the Industrial division. United
States Steel opened fractionally lower
and showed little of the strength OF
recent days. From the start pressure
characterized Baldwin Locomotive.
Crucible Steel Westinghouse Manufac-
turing, and other of the same general
character. In the general run Mexican
issues were slightly betttr and
strength showed itself in the rails.
Nevertheless, as the trading progressed
the weakness in the munition stocks
and zinc issues extended to the stand
ard stocks and swept them on in the
general reactionary movement.

New York Analysis.

W. B. Hibbs & Company yesterday re-
ceived the following analysis OF the New
York market from Logan & Bryan: A
few speCialties were higher. but many is
sues were sluggish. Money rates have
become decidedly frmer 1t is estimated
that as a result Of the weeks currency
movements that the New York banks
will lose on balance about ffty-four
million in cash. The Mexican prospect
is more cheerful but American troops
will perhaps remain at the border for
months. The reported successes of the
allies and their current offensive move
ment, as much as anything else. seems
to have fostered the idea that for the
first time the end Of the war may be
calculated in a sort Of an indefinite way. -

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ACTIVE.
Price Recoveries Embraced Virtually
 All Parts of the List.

New York, June 27.--The rapidity with which stocks rebounded at to- days opening on the more encourag- ing news from Mexico seemed to indi- cate an enormous over extension of the short or bear account rather than ac- tual. investment inquiry. The action of the Mexican authorities was received with relief, although it was recognized that cdleRa1mpo questions bearing upon the controversy remain unset tied.
 Initial recoveries embraced virtually all parts of the list the Mexican group naturally showing greatest inn provement. Petroleum opened with single block of 5000 shares at 100 to 101, maximum recovery of exactly 10 points. Greene Cananea and. Amer ican Smelting rose more than 3 points and Souther Pacific, whose interests are largely bound up in the situation across the border. made a clear gain of 2 points.
 There were "wfde' or excited open- ings at extreme advances of 2 to points in Readings United States Steel, Marine preferred and some of i@ the. other stocks which have contributed so largely to the trading of recent weeks. Motor shares rose to 1-2 and mu- nitions to 3, wiHl average advances of points for coppers and affiliated issues, while unelassifled stocks par ticipated in variable but substantial degree.
 This advantage was largely effaced before midday, at which time covering movement appeared to have spent it's force. Thereafter the market became increasingly dull and heavy, but, eondi- dons were suddenly reversed in the last half hour, when United States Steel again came forward with the marines, the latter being in especial demand on reports that all obstacles towards the reorganization had been. overcome. Stocks closed with a strong tone, except in United States Industrial Alcohol and other high priced special ties, where pressure was manifested. Total sales amounted to 750, 900 shares.
 Further brilliant statements of rail- way earnings for May were submitted, Canadian Pacific leading with a. net gain of $1,929,000, while Erie showed a gain of $761,000, Northern Pacific $60O,000 and Southern Railways $6S4,- coo, the latter representing an increase of more than 51 per cent
 The strength of marine, fours fea- tured the irregular bond market. Total sales, par value, aggregated $2, 1850, 900.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Dillon Too Clever For Moran
Pusilist outfouaht Frank Moran Round Bout-Pittsburgher Tried to Batter Down Lighter Op- ponent But Failed Dillon Captures Nine Rounds.

New York, June 29 IA Ithuughs out weighed by fully S5 pounds and hay ing a disadvantage of nearly six in ches in height. Jack Dillon, the In- dianapolis light -heavyweigh cIeverIy outfought and outpointed Frank Mo- man, the Pittsburger heavyweight. in nine rounds of a ten round bout at the old Federal League baseball grounds in Brooklyn tonight.
 Moran's weight was announced as BOA pounds; DflIonss was 1sg
 Dillon went on the scales in fight ing togs while Moran was stripped. The Indianapolis man was in fine con dition, but Moran looked fat and fab by around the waistline.
 Dillon the Asgressor.
 Dillon was the aggressor from. the start, although Moran landed the first blow to the head. Moran, instead of playing a waiting game, started off to batter down his opponent, but Dillon was too fast and clever for the big fellow. Moran swung two hard rights to the stomach in the opening round, but Dillon came back fast with short lefts and rights to body and face and at the end of the round Dil- lon had a shade better of the round. In the second round Moran missed several attempts to- land his right swing while Dillon bored in+with both hands at close quarters, always hav- ing the better of the milling, driving short lefts and rights to the stomach and bringing up snappy right half arm jolts to the jaw and face.
 Moran's Lone Round.
 The third round was the only one in which Moran had the advantage. He drove Dillon to the ropes with left and right smashes to the head and body and took Dillon across the ring pounding him with both hands at close range. Toward the end of this round Dillon made fast rally, get ting in his short arm work but Moran sent two left hooks~t the body and a right to the heod. At the close of the round, which was the only one he could claim in the fight, Moran seem ed to blow up from the strenous ef- forts he had made in the preceding rounds.
 In the fourth round Dillon rushed and smashed rights and lefts and up-
