The New York ciruclor of Henry Clews says: “A resction from the recent unprecedented rise in the prices of securities was to be ex- pected. With such an extraordinary Increase in the earning power of the railroads, such a marvelous run of onal prosperity, and such en unrestrained buoyancy in every business in- terest—to say nothing of the excitement de- veloped by the great corporate deals—it is not | st all remarkable that the market value of 3ailrond investmen unparalleled figures as we have lately seen.

Several heavy blows have been Geslt to the market, which at the present level has displayed excelient resisting qualities. Li- quidation has been very thorough and stocks e been passing into stronger hands for the st month or six weeks. The monetary situa- tion is steadily improving: bank reserves seem dikely to incre during the next few weeks; gold is coming in from the Klondike, and t Treasury will shortly begin to disburse funds move freely; consequently there is little chance of disturbgnce in the money market until the ~rop movement begins. No further untoward Gievelopments have taken place abroad, and the quantity of American securities over there has been 5o greatly diminished that our stocks will be less senmsitive to foreign disturbance than formerly.

New York Stock Market. NEW YORK, July 3L—There was no indi- cation this morning of any awakening from the lethargic state in which the stock market has been during the whole of this week. A spasmodic dip was effected in the stocks of the United States Steel Corporation at the opening on the failure of the Amalgamated Association to agree upon terms for setlling the strike at their session yesterday. The ‘whole market opened down in sympathy under the attack of the professional traders. But the subsequent action of the market demon- | strated its professional character. The open- | ing dip, following vesterday's decline, repre- | sented the extent to which small traders were willing to commit themsel and they com- menced to buy to cover s rt_contracts and day-to-day varying fluctuations are all that alled pending the isvelopment the Jarger interests, steel strike, seemed to be pretty clearly de- fined by these indications. By buying stocks freely during the period of liquidation, they | accomplished thelr purpose of * supporting | prices. When prices advanced they were will- ing to sell out the holdings which were taken purely for supporting purposes, but were clear- Iy undisposed to attempt an extensive advance The market | is thus left fallow, except for the efforts of a | small contingent of professional operators whosa attempts to move prices are of small efficacy. They secure no following when they | bid up prices and they jnduce no jmportant liquidation now when they offer them down. It is noticeable that railroad authorities are | willing to concede rather more damage to the corn crop, now that the drouth is effectually broken, than they were during the period when | the securities of their companies were under pressure of liquidation. With the turn of the month, some light replenishment of the money market is looked for as the result of dividend and interest disbursements, which are, how- ever, small. The most important is the divi- dend on United States Steel preferred of 1% per cent for the quarter, involving an outgo of about $3,000,000. This doubtless had much | to do with the small flurry in the call loan market late in the day which helped the move- ments of the traders to put down prices to about the lowest of the day. Intimations that ing smoothly helped to this end. The closing was weak. United States Steel fell an extreme 2% and the preferred 33%. The most conspicu- ous feature, next to these, was Norfolk and | Western, which rose nearly 3 points on a per- sistent demand, which was without explana- tion. The bond market was intensely dull and ir- regular. Total sales, par value, $910,000. TUnited States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.

September opened %@%c higher at 8%@eic. Liquidation, chiefly for the local account, & fair amount of short selling, thought to be for the Northwest interests, and the general lack of interest in the trade caused an early decline to 68%c. The remainder of the session the market ruled dull but steady around 68%c. Toward the close 68%c was pald for a small lot, but the close was easy %@%c lower at 65%c. The steadiness following the opening was due to the corn strength and to export sales reported by the seaboard at forty loads. The market for corn was u nervous affalr, owing to the fact that the experts were not quite ready to hazard guesses as to the benefit to the crop of .recent rains. Liquidation fol- lowing the opening caused a momentary fe ing of weakness, but the nervousness of shorts and an advance at Liverpool led to covering which held prices firmly the remainder of the session. _September closed 1%c over yesterday at_o5%@56%c. There was only a small scalping market for oats In the absence of country trading, which for some time has been the feature. Septem- ber closed 3c higher at 34@34%c. Provisions were dull and irregular, owing to selling of pork, while there was but little pressure on lard and ribs, although the feeling was bearish because of heavy hog recelipts. September pork closed 25c lower, lard un- changed and ribs 23%@bc down. The leading futures ranged as follows Open. High. Low.

NEW YORK, July 3L.—The feature of im- portance in metal circles to-day was the loss of £2 58 in spot tin in London and a decline of £1 158 in the future positions, due, it was said, to heavy liquidation in that market. The close was weak at £117 10s for spot and £114 103 for futures. Here, however, little of conse- quence transpired, spot tin’ ruling entirely nominal, while the forward deliveries were easy and 50 points lower at $27@25. Copper in London regained 2s 6d of yesterday's loss and ruled steady, closing at £67 10s on spot and £67 17s on_futures. The domestic production of copper during the first six months ending June 30 amounted to 133,394 tons, against 124,- 577 tons last year. Shipments for the first six months ending June 30 to Europe were 9,365 tons, as compared with 85,322 tons last year.

BOSTON, July 31.—The American Cotton and ‘Wool Reporter will say to-morrow of the wool trade: . The market continued on an even keel, with continued cheerfulness, a more or less uniform amount of business and with more or less of a conviction that the market 1s to sell higher in the future than the prices of the present. The fact that buyers have been paying high prices out West shows that they expect to sell at_better prices here. Mills generally have orders enough to kee their machines running through August and perhaps through September, and they have had to buy wool to execute these orders. ‘The sales of the week in Boston wre 5,790,000 pounds domestic and 310,000 foreign, making a total of 6.100,000 pounds, against a total of 6,670,000 for the previous week and a total of 3,268,500 for the corresponding week last vear. The receipts of wool in Boston this week amount to 33,267 bales, against 30,758 last week and 15,013 last vear. Shipmente of wool for the week ending July 20 were 5,637,856 pounds. This shows an in- crease of 662,702 pounds over the shipments ot the previous week. Since January 1 the total shipments amount to 142,385,155 pound: Eastern Livestock Markets.

Harrison's circular says: ‘“‘Since the first of last month there have been the following arrivals of coal from Australia, viz.: Royal- ist, 4000 tons: Ireme, 1227 tons; Montebello, 3000 tons: Austrailan, 3370 toms; total, 11,597 tons. The engaged list of coal carriers from Aus- tralia (loaded and to be loaded) foots up nine- teen vessels, with a carrying capacity of about 60,000 tons, which shows an increase of about 20,000 tons during the month of July. At this time last year there were on the chartered list Wellington, §9; Seattle, $7 $5 50 capacity of 110,000 tons. sons assigned for this shrinkagé of tonnage are | the high prices of coal in the colonies, the high freights heretofore ruling there, and the sub- stitution of ofl for steam grades of coal here locally. The decline of about four shillings per ton in coal freights from Newcastle in the month of July is gradually increasing the num- ber of charters being made to transport coal to San Francisco. If it is ever anticipated that Australian coal will regain its former posi- tion there must be a speclal price made to ‘meet this market at the points of shipment. The coal market of Honolulu is reported to be seriously overloaded with Australian, and absurdly low prices are being named for car- goes which have arrived there unsold. This will tend to increase the loading list at New- castle for this port, and should cause a further decline In coal freights."
