Some Support Is Accorded Steel Stocks and the Coalers. | NEwW | YORK, June 2.—To-day's stock market made some headway against early depression, which seemed to be reflected from London, but the disappointing bank statement to carried prices below last night's level all around. The trade throughout was languid and the move- | ment of prices very sluggish. Very few transactions were of an origin outside the | boardroom. Some support seemed to be accorded to the United States steel stocks | and the coalers. The continuance of the n to- | schedule of prices for steel products and | | the announcement of the placing of large orders for steel rails held the steel stocks nd was an encouraging factor for the | whole market. There were some special | points of weakness, notably Smelter. Its decline of was due to disappointment | | over the failure of dividend action at the | recent directors’ meeting. The weather | reports from the corn belt and the firm- | ness of cereal markets, as well as the ¢ in cotton, had an unsatisfactory ef- fect on stocks, and the danger of a pas- senger rate war in the Northwest was not liked. New steps taken in the suits of minority stockholders in Southern Pacific a the Union Pacific interests disp supposition that this dispute compromised. Reports from Boston of a cut in copper by a leading competitor depressed Amal- gamated. Colorado Fuel was hurt by vague rumors a renewed outbreak of | internal dissensions over the control of the comp: WEEK’'S BANK STATEMENT. Instead of the expected increase of $5,- 000,000 in cash in the banks, the weekly | statement showed a gain of only $1,539,800. st week’s gold exports to South Amer- | i which were too late to figure in last week’s statements would account for only | a small portion of the discrepancy. Holi- day and vacation requirements are sup- posed to have made some local demands on the banks. The increase in loans, though small, detracted from the benefit of the cash increase, the surplus of which was recuperated by only $622,400. A rise in the discount rate in London and a sharp decrease in sterling at Paris and Berlin were calculated to relieve the pressure for gold upon New York. Nafrowing and irregular fluctuations have marked the week’s operations in the stock market. The renewed decline early {in the week after last week's sharp re- covery was viewed with some anxiety lest it might indicate a renewal of the liquidation, which would carry prices to 4 lower level than before and precipitate new burdens on the market. But support developed before prices got down to last week’s low level, and the uncovering of fresh stop-loss orders and a new wiping out of margins were thus_avoided, such orders having been largely cleared on brokers’ books by the previous decline. The professional operators in the market generally accepted this as a demonstra- tion that large liquidation should be com- pleted for the time, but that an attempt to lift prices to a higher range was likely to encounter fresh pressure to sell. INVESTORS ARE CAUTIOUS. Bear tactics to depress prices, on the other hand, seem to meet buying orders of a substantial character, which take stocks out of the market for investment and thus fortify the market. This kind of buying, however, shows itself extreme- iy cautious in following any advance in prices. The natural result is the sluggish and waiting market which developed in the latter part of the week. Current discussion in Wall street con- cerns itself as much with the sources and motives of the recent extensive selling of stocks as with the prospects of the future. That the resources of wealthy capitalists have been over-extended in wew enterprises, and that this fact has had been BRIGHT YOUNG ATHLETE .

From Age of 24 Up to 55 Is Contemplated. 'ST. PAUL, Minn., June 20.—The Su- preme Lodge, A. O. U. W,, has framed a new schedule of rates and after it has been passed upon by the committee on laws it will come up before the Suprems | Lodge for action. Between the ages of 18 and 24 years the present rates hold in force, with a proportionate increase up to 55, but after that period the changé Wwill be more radical. A special committee of three on ritual was appointed, one a literary man, one a religious man and another familiar with the practical work of the lodge, and the three were authorized to obtain the ser- vices of a playwright. It was voted to give the committee $500 and should the proffered ritual be satis- factory an additional $500 will be paid. Since the supreme master workman re- ceived no stipulated compensation for his services it was moved that a salary of $1000 be given him. An attempt to make the Supreme Lodge hold a biennial gathering was defeated by a vote of 439 to 139. 4 Sierra Club Tickets on Sale.
