STOCKS AND BONDS

NEW YORK. June 2.-The stock market was in a state of suspended animation during the greater part of today's desultory dealings, transac- tions for the fuil session scarcely to- taling 450,00 shares.
 Price tendencies were mainly down ward, although losses, except among selected issues, were partly relieved when the money market developed un- expected ease and the shorts found it eXpedient to cover.
 Call money opened at per cent, d reflection of yesterdays sharp rise, but relaxed to 6 per cent, in the last hour on surplus of offerings, to which out of town banks made sub stantial contributions.
 A steadier tone prevailed in foreign exchange, especially the London quo tation, which rose about five cents to the pound over yesterdays final price on heavy purcidses of demanded bills. The Paris rate also recorded material improvement, but marks reacted.
 Advices dealing with industrial con- ditons were conflicting, the equipment companies reporting moderate buying, while additional curtailment of opera tions was indicated in the wooden, cotton and leather industries. Larger deliveries of finished steel and iron products reflect further relief in the freight situation.
 Aside from the relative firmness of low priced rails and pressure on in vestment issues of that group, stocks showed no alteration from their rec ent hesitant tone. The moderate rally in the final trading made greater headway in speculative issues than among standard shares, where net declines ruled.
 DullnesS in stocks extended to the bond market, with Liberty issues ex, periencing further depreciation, in some instances yielding 1 per cent ! Speculative or convertible railroad bonds were firm and foreign issues were featured by the strength oi ] Anglo-Frencn 5's. Total sales, pal value, aggregated S12,45O,00O. Old United States bonds unchanged or call.
