NEW YORK, July 12.—The stock market showed continued strength and buying by pro- fesstonal operators was on a large scale. Thers was @ good demand from outsiders through commission houses at the opening, encouraged by the rise in prices yesterday and yesterday's professional buyers were Tree sellers to realize while this lasted. The market then came to the customary halt after such a p.ocess before taking up an advance. An eager demand de- veloped for Missour! Pacific and affected nearly all the Gould Southwestern group in sympathy. Not the stocks alone, but the securities of this group of rallroads were affected. Missourt Paocific held the leadership of the market throughout the day and made a late advance to 48%—an extreme rise of 2 points. The motive of this buying was the Wall street rumors of plans for merging the various railroad proper- ties in the Southwest in which the Goulds are interested. Good buying set in early for the grangers, Pacifics and Atchison preferred, and after midday New York Central was suddenly ushed up an extreme 2%. Large buying of ennsylvania at an advance of il seemed to be associated with the New York Central movement, but later an attempt was made to connect the latter with Union Pacific and Northwestern by manipulating the price of those two stocks. All of the Northwestern's gain_was subsequently lost. The manner in which the buying demand progressed through the rallroad list, together with the upward WEATHER with light showers with showers in tendency in sugar, prompted the professionals | Q! o attempt a movement In the industrial stooks, Leather preferred, Federal Steel, Tin Plate and General Electric were bid up between 1 and 2 points, and New York Alr Brake made a char- Bcteristic upward dash of 19 points. Mexican Central rose quite consplcuously 2% - per cent under the sentimental Influence of the opening in New York of subscriptions for the new Mexican refunding loan. Sugar, Man- hattan and Brooklyn Transit dropped sharply from top figures and many of the gains in the industrials were practically wiped out. Prices of the railroads sagged considerably from the top and the closing of the market was de- oldedly heavy, net gains being only partly re- tained. The money market was easier to-day &nd confidence is felt that the supply will be- come still more abundant at a very early date, Total sales bonds, par value, $3,365,000.

NEW YORK, July 12.—The Commercial Ad- vertiser’s London financial cablegram says: | The markets here were inactive to-day. They opened dull, but improved later on a spurt of 11-16 in_consols. The recent weakness in them is attributed to sales by discount brokers who were unwilling to pay the stiff loan rates de- manded by the banks. It s rumored that the proposal to extend postoffice savings bank in- Vestments beyond consols has been abandoned. A more hopeful view of the Transvaal situa- tion also prevailed. Money was harder. There is talk of an advance in the bank rate to- morrow, but I think such action improbable. Americans were buoyant, closing at the best. New York bought freely’ and London is en- couraged by the crop reports, the St. Paul traf- fic and the news that grain rates are to be ad- vanced on August 1. Tintos, 54%; Utahs, 8%; Bostons, 1%.

CHICAGO, July 12.—September wheat opened steady c over yesterday’s close at 73%c. The Paris advance of %@lc on reports of hot weather in France and Germany influenced a good deal of buying from shorts, and support from that source was permanent throughout the session. The tendency was shown by all classes of traders to play for a rise from the decline of the past three weeks. The demand for wheat was taken up by those who sold calls last night and by noon September was selling at T3%@78%e. reports were conflicting. Nebraska reported 10.6 per cent of the crop i that State worthless on account of the weed: while Oklahoma reported an increase of 6,000, 000 bushels this year over last vear's cro Later advices caused a more bearish feeling. News from France said the hot weathernfn that country and Germany did not at present packages. Bt. Louis end Bouth- | thresten the crop. - Northwest receipts con- tinued large and weather favorable. Some of the commission houses who bought early in the session turned sellers and the Northwest sold wheat on the advance. September ad- vanced to 73%c and closed at that price.

BOSTON, July 12.—The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow: The wool market is intensely active and in- creasing in strength. More than 9,000,000 pounds of wool have changed hands during the week. Much of it has been moved in large blocks and among the purchasers have been consumers, arge and small, or traders of every descrip- jon. The buying has been of a more general character and there. is no question that manu- facturers are figuring more largely than for- merly. A considerable portion of the business has been in territory wools. A feature of the mar- ket has been the increased activity in fleeces, prices of which are very strong. The sales of the week in Boston amounted to 8,524,000 pounds domestic and 810,000 pounds foreign, making a_ total of 9,334,000 pounds, against a total of 5,639,000 pounds for the pre- vious week, and a total of 1,686,000 pounds for the corresponding week last year. Sales since January 1, 1899, amount to 133,611,200 pounds, against 58,464,310 pounds last year at this time. LONDON WOOL SALES. LONDON, July 12—The number of bales offered at to-day’'s wool auction sales aggre- gated 13,260. The attendance was good.

HAY AND FEEDSTUFFS. N Arrivals of Hay were fair, but the demand was active and sales were made at full prices. Feedstuffs were unchanged. The circular of Somers & Co. says of Hay: ““The market now shows some {ndications of the heavy receipts that could be naturally ex- pected after the Fourth of July, although there is yet a scarcity of men in the country to en- able shippers to bale their crop as they wish. This, together with the fact that many farm- ers are still busy with thelr grain, is keeping much hay back that will probably be marketed as s0on as possible. We are inclined to be- leve, therefore, that toward the end of the present month and durlng August, we may reasonably expect very free shipments of hay to this market. Reports from our various agents prove that there is a large amount of hay throughout the country where there are no storage facllities, thus necessitating the marketing of much Lay before the rainy sea- son_sets in. “‘Unless some unusual market s developed for our surplus, the future of the hay market will be a very discouraging one, although we may reasonably expect hay to advance dur- ing the winter months enough to pay for cost of storing and insuring same. ““There is considerable discussion at the present time as to the probable effects of the introduction of automobiles on the Pacific Coast. 1If the horse is to be superseded by these fnventions, most raisers of hay will have to enter @ new line of produce ralsing. The progress of the world seems to point toward this innovation, but the more conservative think that it will prove but a passing fad or fancy. In all probability two or three vears will solve the problem, although If this radi- cal change is to take place we Will begin to feel its effects very shortly.’” BRAN—$16@16 50 per ton.

Business was light on the Bond Exchange and quotations showed no changes worthy of note. Mining stocks were stronger at a slight ad- vance. The telegram from the pump said: ‘‘No. 1 elevator has been working continuously. The water rose and fell again during the past twenty-four hours. At 6:30 this morning the water on the floor of the 190-foot level station is but 4 inches deep.’” The Alpha Consolidated has levied an assess- ment of 8 cents per share, delinquent Au- gust 16. On June 30 the regular dividend of the Cari- boo Consolidated Company was pald, making a total of $75,000 distributed in dividends since January last. A letter from the Justice mine reads as fol- lows: On the 370-foot level west crosscut ~o. 1 from the station was advanced 15 feet since last report, making its total distance 222 feet from the station. The face is in clay and quartz. The winze started {n the south drift, opposite the north drift, has been sunk 12 reet. The bottom s in quartz giving low assay: STOCK AND BOND EXCHANGE.
