STOCK LIST STRONG
AS DOLLAR DROPS
Shares Reach New Highs on
Turnover of Six to Seven
Millions.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June Acute weak
ness in the dollar was the real feature
of today's financial markets. although
stocks were very strong and went into
new high ground on a turnover that
ran between 100000 and 100000
shares
ton for the advance in the foreign
exchanges against the dollar. Sterling
in mid-afternoon was quoted at $4.071a,
up cents on the day and the highest
for 1888. At the same time Swiss
francs at 1880 cents were up Is points
to the highest on record for that cur
rency. French francs advanced
points, the Dutch guilder 81 points and
Italian lire more than points at the
same time.
Gold Market Talked.
One suggestion was that the admin
istration at Washington would consent
to the establishment of free market
for gold and this was made the basis
for speculation in the American gold
stocks. The new Treasury financing
met a favorable reception, especially
the five-year notes
Commodities advanced with secu-
rites. Wheat closed y to rs cents
higher. Gotten, heavy at first, turned
strong later. The price of refined
sugar was advanced. Silver worked
higher.
In the stock market speculation shifted
about from group to group, new lead
ers being taken up when realizing be-
came pronounced in those which had
been advancing the fastest. In the last
hour j. I. Case was the feature, up 8
to points.
The metal shares were the leaders
early in the day, particularly the copper
and silver stocks. Gold mining shares
ever. and the nickel, lead and zinc
stocks we're not neglected.
Views Confused.
As to the basis for the movement
there was much confusion of thought.
One reason alleged was reports as to
the plans for the International
Economic Conference, which, it was
said, was to decide in favor Of larger
use OF silver as currency. Another was
feeling that new imitation measures
were in prospect and third was con-
nected with the mysterious strength In
sterling exchange
On this latter point, sterling opened
on this side at s4.045s and soon adj
vanced to $4.053s new high for the
year. The market was strong all the
morning. French francs were up over
point, while the Swiss and Dutch cur
rencies were moderately higher What
ever the cause, the effect was increased
demand for stocks.
New highs we're made by Cerro De
Pasco, Howe Sound and International
Nickel In the stocks of corporations
producing the baser metals, and in
Alaska Juneau and Mcintyre in the
gold stocks. All the members Of the
group moved up more or less.
Utilities Are Strong.
Elsewhere in the list the public util-
ties were strong, with another spec
tacular rise in Postal Telegraph pre-
ferred and smaller one in Interna-
tional Telephone on the prospect Of
Western Union-Posta1 Telegraph mer-
ger. New peak prices were reached
also by National Power & Light and
Columbia Gas. Steel stocks were steady
but made little progress during the
first half of the session. That was
true also of most industrials, although
Allied Chemical, Columbian Carbon
and Union Carbide were higher.
