ALEXANDER McADIE, Local Forecast Officlal. EASTERN MARKETS. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. NEW YORK, June 7.—The stock marke showed the same conflicting tendencles as for several days past, but the reactionary element gained the upper hand during the afternoon and effected sharp declines all through the list, dis- lodging quite a large amount of stock, wiping out the margins on which it was held. There was a significant period of dullness succeeding this lively selling and then began a qufet and steady absorption of stocks, offerings being taken at the rullng prices, with an entire ab- sence of any effort to mark up quotations. It was sufficlently evident that the purpose of the reaction was to secure stocks at the lower level. There was quite a lively commis- sion house demand at the opening, which lifted prices of many stocks a small fraction. Bhere was a speclal show of aggressive strength in Brooklyn Transit, the Reading stocks, Erie First preferred and some of the lower South- westerns. Metropolitan Street Railway and Consolidated Gas were also centers of strength. The bears met this by vigorous attack on Union Pacific preferred, People's Gas, Louisville and Nashville and Kansas and Texas preferred, all of which were driven down between 1% and 2 poi This combination proved vulnerable to attack and weakened the market at its sallent points. The recoveries in the final hour were over & polnt in a number of important cases and net changes were mostly small and losses predominated. The war news was without in- fluence on the market. London was quite a heavy seller Lere and was a_factor in weak- ening prices and In giving a firm tone to ster- ling exchange. The demoralization of wheat prices muy Lave aided the reaction. The world's heavy receipts of wheat gave rise to a question as to whether America’s next crop can be marketed to the best advantage. Although money continues abundant and cheap it s in- evitable that the approaching Government bond issue should absorb money and harden rates, temporarily at least. There was realizing in bonds to-day in specilative issues and the ton was heavy. Total sales, $2,190,000, S United egistered and the new 45 were s per cent lower and the &'s cent lower in the bid price e The total sales of stocks to-day were 457,400 shares, including: Atchison, 3800: do preferred, 15,500; C.

The settiement to-morrow will be favored by cheap money. Silver was flat on a cessation of the Spanish orders.

CHICAGO June 7.—The Liverpool market, | which has been steadily declining- for several days, was espectally demoralized to-day, and reported & drop er-al to S%c per bushel in July and 4%c in September, with the Conti- nental markets also lower. The crop outloak contained all that could be desired, with the grain in large areas ready for the reaper. The Kansas report for June shows the condition 103—the highest ever reported at this season of | the year. The report set at rest the rumors about chinch bugs and rust. As a result longs | quickly began to liquidate. There was urgent short selling, sales on stop loss orders and on exhausted margins. Under the pressure the market went off rapidly. The rally, which fol- lowed, was due to the fact that many shorts were disposed to take advantage of the break to secure profits. This class of buying was sufficient In volume to cause a temporary re. ction. The Atlantic exports were astonish- ingly heavy, amounting in wheat and flour to about 1,706,000 bushels. The figures gave the discouraged bilis heart enough to take on some Wheat and caused many shorts to get out and be in position to contemplate the situation philosophically for a while. The total stocks in the world's visible, as compiled by the Chicago Daily Trade Bullefin and Liverpool Corn Trade News, is 106,000,000 bushels, against 107,000,000 2 year ago. While the crowd were battling over the small domestic receipts on the one hand and the bearlsh figures connected with the world's stocks on the other, & heavy thu der storm broke on the Board of Trade bulld- ing that settled the fight. The shorts rushed to get thelr Wheat in out of the wet and the market became quite strong. July closed Zc and September %c lower. Selling orders predominated in Oate at the opening. Later, however, buyers took hold and the market steadily advanced until a gain of e over yesterday's close was made. A slight reaction took place at the close. July closed %e lower. 'After a_weak opening Corn became strong on unfavorable crop news from Kansas. There was no export, however. This, together with the decline In Wheat, caused a decline in prices near the close. July closed He lower, Heavy grain markets and lower prices for live hogs weakened Provisions. One or two heavy selling orders were on the market, but on the decline there were plenty of buyers.

The eye of a dragon-fly contains 28,000 polished lenses. Flies are not the only thing found in amber, dredged up out of the Baltic Sea re- cently, there was distinctly visible in its interior a small squirrel—fur, teeth and claws intact. It is said that the phonograph is now used in the Spaniih telephone service. Messages are spoken into it, and the instrument repeats them to the tele- phone. They are also received on a | phonograph at the distant station. The microphone is being utilized for the education of deaf-mutes, and such persons can actually hear sounds pro- ceeding from the microphonograph, and soon learn to utter them. It appears to be an efficacious method, even with per- sons who have passed middle life. M. Leon Lemal has brought out a new method of coloring glass by covering it with a silver salt and heating it to 500 degrees centigrade. On cooling it the glass is found to be tinged. When seen by light passing through it the glass is vellow, and it is blue when seen by re- flected light. Salts of gold, iron and copper and other metals also stain glass in this way. It is possible to produce | pretty decorations by the process. One of the greatest wonders of Java, ‘“the fire island,” a large lake of boil- ing mud, is situated almost in the plains of Grobogana, some distance to the northeast of Solo. It is nearly two miles in circumference, and in the cen- ter immense columns of soft, hot mud may be seen continually, rising and fall- Ing, like great black timbers thrust forth and then suddenly withdrawn by a giant’s hand. Besides the phenom- gantic bubbles near the western edge, which fill up like huge balloons and ex- plode on an average three times per minute. TH®: CALL CALENDAR.
