MARKET MERELY
DRIFTING AFFAIR
Railroads Commanded More At.
tention, With Reading as
the Star Attraction

New York, June S.--Except in a few
scattering spots the trading in today's
stock market was again lifeless and gen
orally meaningless. In addition to the
restraints arising from the uncertain
ties of the political Developments at
chicago. yesterdays late furry In call
loans also put damper upon specu-
lative activity. There was, in conse-
Quence n general disposition to 60 slow
until the renewal rate had been fixed
on call loans. This was made at per
cent. as against yesterdays closing rate
Of 10 per cent. The supply, however,
was found to be exceedingly limited
and in consequence, the rate as soon
raised to 8 per cent. Some effort had
been made to create the impressions
that yesterdays late furry was wholly
unwarrantcd and entirely rigged op-
crations. The tightness of the market
somewhat upset this foolish idea.
In betted informed circles il is gen
orally recognized that market probably
will have TO fight period of stringent
money until the end of the current
month. There has apparently been con
siderable withdrawal of funds by the
interior, then again the banks are neccs-

LOCAL TRADING
AGAIN LISTLESS
Further Dribbling Liquidation
in the Utility Group Caused
Fractional Shading

Interest continued at low ebb in the
local market and for the greater part of
the session the dealings were entirely
perfunctory. Price changes were cx-
tremely irregular, yet seemingly carried
little Significance except to further en-
phaSiZe the extreme narrowneSs of the
current trading
In view of the hating character of
the other markets and considering the
increasing uncertainties injected into
the general situation by reason of the
further tightening Of money rates,
coupled with apparent muddlc local
transit situation, there was little won
der the rank and file of the local trading
element were disposed to stick to side
lines and look on until the situation be-
came clarified. Money. in So far. as
stock market accommodations are con
ccrncd is practically unobtaiuable. nor
does there seem to be much hope of any
immediate improvement.
At the outset the list showed a ten
dency to improve, but most of the gains
were soon lost from sheer inertia. There
was little selling pressure. but there
was still continued dribbling liquidation
in scattering parts of the list. notably
L. q. l., Pennsylvania Railroad. Phil :
adelphia Electric and Philadelphia

price loss was smaller. L. G.. ]. seemed
