NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
Features Of the Days Dealings In All
the Leading Stocks

New York, June 19.-The stock mar
ket settled down to routine conditions
today after an early setback which
bore the familiar marks of bear pres
sure. Initial losses of one to two
points in the several speculative
groups were speedily retrieved on
short covering. Trading thereafter be-
came apathetic until the final hour
when selling was renewed. The net
result, except in isolated instances,
was insignificant
Special stocks furnished much of the
days motive power under the active
guidance of pools and other profess
sonal interests. The inquiry for mo-
tor issues at gross advances of to
6 points was predicted on the report
ed purchase by the government Of
large amounts of cans and trucks to
augment the proposed air fleet.
Less anxiety was felt respecting
taxation Of excess war profits and en-
forcement of lower prices for iron,
steel and coal and similar commodi-
ties. Money rates also relaxed ma
terially, although much of the days
requirements were again met at the
six per cent rate. Time rates for the
shorter maturities also moved more in
favor of borrowers.
Another consignment Of British gold
amounting to $1,000, 0o0-making to-
tai Of s33,0O0,000 on the new inflow
infused firmness to rates on London,
but francs and lires were heavy to
weak. remittances to Rome being
quoted at 7.35. Rubles also forfeited
part of yesterdays gain with Russian
government bonds.
Several special issues were conspic-
uous for their pronounced heaviness
Ohio Gas registered an extreme de-
cline of seven points in reported dis
solution of pool and Saxon Motors
decline Of 41-S to the low record Of
"a IS was later explained by the de-
cision of the directors to defer pay
ment Of the current dividend
United States Steel moved within a
narrow radius and closed at 1877 IL, a
net loss of IA Other shares Of the
same class moved within similar lin
its. the only noteworthy exceptions
being Bethlehem Steel old stock which
lost 3-4 on a single sale, and Nova
Scotia Steel. which rose six points
Rails were featureless and irregular
in tone Total sales aggregated $780,
900 shares.

against $3.50 in the same period OF
the preceding year.
Most of the horses and also the
larger part of the mules have been ex-
norted direct to France. The extra de-
mand for war horses does not seem
to have materially caused an advance
in the prices at which horses anu
mules have been exported. Inc aver
age export valuation of horses export
ed in the first year was $22l per head'
in the second year $2O6. and In the
third year PA. The average export
valuation of mules in the first year OF
the war was s193, in the second year
s2O5. and in the third year $2O6 per
head.
This taking out of the country OF
1000, 900 of the best horses in the coun-
try has had q perceptible erect upon
the total value of farm horses in the
country. The Department of Agrlcul-
ture estimates that the value OF all
farm horses in the country fell from
$500, O0e, 900 in 1914 to $2175,0Oo.ooo
in 1917. However, the Department OF
Agriculture's count included horses OF
all ages, whereas those exported for
war service were, presumably, at their
best working capacity.
1t is estimated that the United
States has over one-fifth of the 1OO.-
900, 900 horses of the world, and far
more than any other single country
excepting Russia, which has about oV'-
100000 against 100000 IN the Unlteo
States, and as Russian supplies were
cut out by reason of war, 1t became
necessary for the Allied armies to draw
on the supplies of the United States.

American Expectation and v.,u.
ton OF Horses and Mules.-There n .
scarcity of heavy horses throuphout
the western breeding states due to the
large shipments of war horses durinr
the past two years. Government 40.
ures recently issued show that ths
number OF horses sent out to the war
In the first year reached $4,000. tbe
second year 100000 and IN the third
year. ending next month, will apuroYt-
mate 100000. There is a slight decline
IN the number of horses being now ex-
ported. as is shown by the fact that
Official figures of the latest mcA
available, March, are ABOUT 20 Der cent
below those of the same month Of last
year. The reduction in the amount of
horses being exported is made up by
the steadily increasing number Of
mules shipped abroad for war uses. In
the fiscal year ending with June, 1918.
there were 65.788 horses. in the next
year 111.s16. and in the year which
will end with the present month win
approximate 100000. In the single
month Of March. OF the current year.
the latest for which figures are avail.
able, the number of mules exported
was 1876 against 1882 in same month
Of the previous year, and for the nine

 The Minnie B. began systematic search of the north shore of the straits for the missing boats and the MaripOsa began a search of the south shore. In the course OF three hours 4 more boats were picked up, some having made shore where they had fires burning. One boat containing seven men was not found.
 Many of the men were exhausted and worn and showed signs of their hard experience when rescued. They all acted queer and were quite surly when anyone attempted to take pie lures Of them.
