FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ACTIVE
There Was Moderate Revival of
 Public Interest.

New York, July 11.-Additional gains of 1 to points made in the course of today's stock market deal :ngs, with nominal recessions in the last hour on realizing. seemed to orig mate mainly from technical consid = erations. Traders proceeded on the theory that the market had arrived at an over-Sold condition and bought freely for both accounts, deriving some encoura cement from a moderate revival of public interest.
 There was a welldef1ned opinion that the conferences now in progress at Washington between important in dustrial interests and the govern ment would result in price adjust ments satisfa ctory to the contracting parties.
 Financial statements submitted by several of the steel and equipment concerns notably the Lackawanna Steel company and forecasts of the United States Steel earnings for the second quarter also induced support of those issues.
 United States Steel was more re- sponsive to this inquiry than at any recent period, making an extreme gain of almost two points at 128 If, half of which was forfeited at the end. Bethlehem, Lackawanna and Crucibie Steels gained al much or more, with Great Northern Ore, Republic Iron, Colorado Fuel, Cast Iron Pipe, Har- vester and Steel Foundries.
 The other equipments, metals, su gars, oils and tobaccos rose 1 to 3 points, with Central Leather, Ameri can Woolen and Fertilizers strong, while motors registered extreme ad vances. of one to five points with the subsidiaries
 Shippings were consistently strong at gains of 1 1-2 to 1-2 for marines, , for United Fruit and 1-4 for At lantic, Gulf and West Indies. Indust- rial Alcohol and Mating Preferred featured the stocks of their especial class, gaining 1 to points and utili ties were represented by Philadelphia Company, United Railways, Peoples Gas and Third Avenue at 1 to almost points gains.
 Rails were compara lively dull but strong, Reading. New York Central and Paciics averaging advances of 1 to 1-2 points, Wisconsin Central ris- ing 3 1-2. Total sales amounted to 760 900 shares.
 Bonds were steady, except for the liberty issue, which ranged from par to 9e 4s-5o, an odd lot selling at 99 4650. Total sales, par value, aggre- gated s29s5. G00
 U. s. old issues were unchanged on call.

Colchester Heard From.

Sporting Editor: On Monday. the 9th. an account of 3 ball game between the Warriors of Norwich Town and the Colchester team appeared in your pa per. This account stated that al- though we won. we played decidedly inferior ball and that at the close of the same the Specta tors drove the Warriors to the club house with the use of stones for revenge Our modes ty prevents us from denying the first part of the statement. but We are forced (out of respect to our audience) to deny the latter. I can think of no reason why we should seek revenge unless it were because the catcher of the Warriors tried to steal one of our base balls. The Norwich Town team could not have been treated very unjustIy for after the game their man ager a.ked me for another date. game to he played in Colchester.
