NEW YORK, June 8.—Gains and losses mainly within narrow limits, attended the dull opening of today’s stock market. Traders evidently were disposed to wait on impending developments befere extending their opetations for the long or short ac- count. Formal announcement of the details of the Republic-Midvale-Inland steel merger were without pronounced effect, aside from the moderate strength of some of that group, Rails were neglected, but the street was not inclined to attach much impor- ‘tance to prospects of a railroad strike. Atlas Powder was conspicuous among the specialties, rising four | points. Foreign exchange eased on advices from Paris regarding the attitude of the reparations commission toward the German loan. Although call money opened at the usually low rate of 5% per cent, deal- steadily morning. speculative character included an ex tension in the rise of Atlas Powder to 6% punts and an abrupt decline of 8% points in Du Pent. Sugars were strong on the further rise in the | price of the refined product. Indepen- dent steels and obscure equipments held or increased early gains. Losses of 1 to 3 points were made by Elec: tric Storage Battery, Willys-Overiond preferred, Consolidated Gas and Amer- Rails became more irregu- lar on selling of Toledo, St. Louis and ‘Western, Ann Arbor preferred and New Orleans, Texas and Mexico. Quite a variated list of stocks cbanged hands at variations of 1 to 3 points either way after mid-day. In general, there was a better tone to the active shares but with a marked contraction in dealings in issues which have recently been responsive to pool operations. Inquiry for the olls and the sugars was supplemented by some demand for Studebaker, Crucible Steel, United Fruit, Laclede Gas, American Writing Paper-preferred and Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, which improved to 1 fo 3 points. Pres-| 9 sure was applied to Associated Oil, Producers and Refiners, California Pe- troleum, Atlantic Gulf preferred, East man Kodak, Piggly Wiggly Stores, Chicago and Alton preferred, Wheel- ing and Lake Erie preferred and St Louts Southwestern, which yielded one to two points.

Last Friday morning Master Bruce Hunter with several other young hopefuls was practicing a slide for life stunt down an incline board on roller skates. The experiment proved to be a decided success and furnished an abundance of amusement until little Brucie miscued and did a holy roller in the air, finally landing onehis ear. Bruce is now parading a bandage which covers quite a laceration. A few more such falls may be the cause of a well developed corn. However, Bruce doesn’t seem at all worried over it. Scouts Swim Free. ‘The management of Riverview Park has made arrangements whereby all Boy Scouts of Mills may have a free swim in the plunge on Saturday morn- ings, provided they supply their own suits and towels. Those not having their own suits and towels may ob- tain same for a nominal sum. The boys are very enthusiastic over this and many of them will avail them- selves of the opportunity, and they wish to take this means to thank Mensrs. Mills, Bassett and unter for the consideration they have shown them. Mr. and Mrs. Emmett James enter- tained at dinner Sunday for Mr. and Mrs. Frenchville and Miss Della Frenchville.
