Local recelpts were tolerably liberal, but moderate to Ught runs were reported elsewhers, and pack- ing demand proved plenty broad enough to take care of everything that was here. Sellers asked higher prices right from the Jump, and while packers ma hard fight to hold the market down to a steady basls they finally had to raiso their hands, move- ment starting on & 10@15c higher level. Trading did not begin quite so early as it aid yesterday, and was a liitle more dragsy after it did get under way.

NEW YORK STOCKS Steel Gains a Point, Reacts and Then Takes a Flight. FRENOH NOTES ON MARKET New York, July 2‘.—“.11 street's ap- parent indifterence today to the record- breaking earnings and extra dividends of the United States Steel corporation and other highly fayorable portents was a source of surprise to traders and financial interests generally. Steel rose a full point in the first few minutes, relinquishing more than its galn before noon, and closed at 86%, a net gain of 18 points. Other leading stocks were, if anything, less rexponsive to constructive factors, ralls, in particular, making further jdeclines. On the surface It would seem that much of the day's depression was brought about by the short Intereat, whose technical posi- tion has been strengthened by recurrent fears of forelgn llquidation and the lack of public investment inquiry. Heavy offerings of the new French § per cent notes recently negotiated by American bankers, was another influence making for added restraint. Sales of this issue for the | day approximated the large sum of $2,400,- 000, practically all at 98, the subscription price- Anglo-French ~bs were relatively steady at the prevalling level. Lowest prices were registered in the morning, the list making variable but in- conclusive = recoverles In the final hour, mainly In consequence of short covering. United States Industrial Alcohol and Mex- fean Petroleum, among the weakest fea- tures of the morning, regained much of their loss, with some motors and muni- tlons, Rafls continued backward, however, with Steel. Total sales amounted to 455,- 000 shares. 7 Resuinption of dividends on the common stock of the Pressed Steel Car company of- fered additional proof of a prosperous con- difion of the ecquipment concerns. Steel trado authorities, reviewing that industry, referred to the heavy tonnage and large purchuses yet to be made in this country by Europe. The sole issue of the exchange m-srkel ter- ling and francs were steady but dull. An- other ¥mall export of gold to Cuba was re- ported. Spoculative . bond issues were lower, with total sales, par value 665,000, Panama coupons 4s were % per cent higher on call, with other government is- sues unchanged.

What to,Avoid In Hot Weather Carelessness c-nm H-ny s, Avoid iced drinks, impure {lter, unripe food, and eat sparingly of meat. In hot weather excessive thirst causes many people to indulge in iced drinks and other liquids injurious to the delicate tissues of the stomach. Physicians are una imous in declar- ing that iced drinks, impure water and unripe food cause the major por- tion of such distressing ills as Diarr- hoea, Cholera Morbus, Typhoid, Cramps and stomach aches prevalent at this season: If you would avoid these distressing complaints begin at once the use of Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey. It is conceded by many physicians to be a most valuable dis- ease preventative, If taken in table- spoonful doses in equal amounts of water or milk before meals und on retiring you can be reasonabl of protection from disease inci nnt to suramer weather, Don't feil to have Duffy’s at hand at all times.
