BUYING SILVER.

Under the Pittman act the Mint
is steadily increasing its stock OF
silver at the lawful price of 81 an
ounce, The purchasing began only
few days ago and it was stated
that already 100000 ounces had
been bought for replacement of
silver which went to the Far East.
The purchases to date. while ap-
pearing large. represent only a
small proportion Of the total
amount which eventually will be
bought. Roughly speaking. the
total purchase will be 27o.ooo,Ooo
ounces. On the present basis of
buying it seems that the price of
domestic silver is pegged at mini

An increase of one-half cent per

STOCK MARKET
AGAIN DULL.
Another Listless Session
Ends Without Any Ma
terial Net Changes.
BREAKS MEANINGLESS
! sLivermore Forsakes Bears
And Lines Up on
Bullish Side.

New York, June 2s.-Another dull
day in the stock market found
prices without material net change.
There were a few sharp movements
but most of these were meaning
less. Delaware and Hudson broke
nearly 4 points, but recovered most
Of 1t. Consolidated Gas rose more
than points on announcement
that 1t could charge 81 per 1000
feet for gas in New York City. The
chemical issues were irregular. The
Replogle stocks were strong.
Money renewed at ., but was
loaned at s at the close of the day.
1t might have been cheaper but a
lower rate would have seemed in
consistent as just as little is wanted
in Wall Street now as was snted
several days ago when money was
IA per cent.
Because this market is so sensi-
tive to speculative facts the Street
considered it very important that
Jesse Livermore should have come
out openly on the constructive side.
L1
leader of the bears and the fact
that he has abandoned the bear
side and has bought stocks is
really important. 1t may not have
so much influence in causing an
immediate advance in the market,
but il is important because the
bears are deprived of leadership.
Mr.. Livermore let's this fact be
known in connection with his GRIM
inal action against a writer who
circulated a report which Livermore
says is false and which the writer
in question seems unable to prove
true.
Governors to Help Liyermore.
- Governors Of the New York Stock
Exchange are expected to line up
with Mr.. Livermore and help him
fght to expose the real culprit be-
hind the story of the 80 pessimists.
The reason is that somebody in
formed the newspapers that the in
formation that caused the trouble
was furnished originally by a gov
ernor of the New York Stock EX-
change. This is denied by the writer
of the story. Therefore, to be con-
sistent. the Board of Governors will
have to do the same thing that they
advised Mr.. Livermore to do. They
will have to get an indictment for
the person who thus misled the
newspapers.
Announcement made today placed
the number of common stockholders
of the United States Steel Corpora
ton at S7,229. This is an increase
of 45,073 over the number three
years ago. Last May there were
7e,2S2 preferred stockholders, thus
making a grand total of -1S6,511
Shareholders Of the great corpora
tion. This indicates a remarkable
scattering of the stock since the war
began, 1t proves that investors
have bought. but il also suggests
that the big insiders have liquidated.
The steamship Olympic is on her
way to America, making her first
voyage as an oil-burner. The DEM
onstration should prove beneficial to
oil stocks, for this is the first time
ship of her size has been so
equipped. The saving in fuel and
labor and the increase in cargo
space will be so great as to attract
universal attention.
The labor troubles with which
the Pennsylvania Is threatened are
q depressing influence for the whole
stock market.
