DajJv Stock Letter.

NEW YORK, July 1S.-The New
York Evening Sun financial review
today said: Aside from an easier
tendency in time and call money,
commercial paper and ;,cceptances,
there was little of interes: and moth
thing of importance In the financial
market this morning. The trading
on the stock exchange was wholly
professional and of the same dull
and uninteresting character that
characterized Mondays business.
In the absence of public buying
for a new speculative impulse, bear
ish traders sought to depress the
list from time to time, but they made
very little Roadway except in a few
Of the specialties and weakness in
that quarter was fully offset by
strength elsewhere. Dizziness rather
than price f1uctuation in either direc-
ton, however, was the outstanding
feature of the session.
Business was conducted on a scale
of small activity in the later trading
and speculative conditions were not
materially altered. Prices moved,
when at all, within q narrow range
and it was difficult at times to deter
mine any change.
The last half hour Of tradingftook
on increased heaviness and this COM
munfcated to some extent to standard
issues and copper stocks. Bonds were
dull and irregularly changed.

PRESIDENT MAKES
CALL TO CAPITOL
Urged Congress to Take Up Several
Matters and Work for Early
Adiournm ent.

WASHINGTON, July 18.-President
Wilson called at the capitol today to
urge personally that senate leaders
overturn the democratic caucus execu-
tive program which would have de-
ferred action on the national child
labor bill.
He asked, it is understood, an early
adjournment of congress. The eau
Gus date of August 20 is satisfactory
to him. But he urged the child labor
bill and workmen's compensation act
be included in the program to be
completed by that time despite every
adverse consideration.
After the conference with the presi-
dent, Senator Kern said he believed
any necessary changes in the execu-
tive program could be affected with
out further caucusing. The president
in his talk with Martin who Is chair
man Of the appropriations committee
asked that the committee aid in
speeding up the program.
President Wilson informed leaders
of the senate that he did not wish to
be notified of his nomination and to
begin his campaign until the child
labor and workmen's compensation
bills had been passed.
The fact Of the presidents call,
went through the capitol like wild
fire. The smoking rooms were crowd
ed with curious, puzzled and later
some angry senators.
He talked with Senators Kern, Mar.
