vfgr 14 STOCK MARKET SHOWED GENERAL DOWNWARD TENDENCY IN STOCKS Oniy Strength Shown Was in Specialties $2,500,000 More Gold From Canada. NEW YoniC, Juno l.-Opefatlon on the Btoclt ExchitnOT today were vlrtunlly a Repetition Of the previous four days this week, except that a reactionary tendency Appeared after the outset, whereas on previous days the opening- was generally strong;. A few of the specialties showed some strength, but not to amount to anything:, and the seneral trend was downward. Business, which was smaller, Was almost wholly confined to tho pro fesslonal element on the floor, and there was a disposition to restrict commitments until the outlook In the forelen exchange market Is brighter and also the Interna tlonat situation. Defore the opening- there were reports of a severo cvclono In the Middle West, and this retarded trading In a measuro nnil was also responsible to some extent for tho reaction. No direct confirmation of the big storm was forthcoming. Early reports had It that conslderoblo damage was done. In the grain market the re ports of heavy crop damago had the effect of boosting prices. The market was steadied to a con siderable degree by Bteet common, which was strong during the morning session, and was the most Important feature. The itrength was attributed to the announce ment that the company Intends to build a new plant at a cost of 3,000,OCO, for the manufacturing Of sulphuric acid and zinc. this being regarded as an indication of confidence In the future business. In addition, trade reports were more opti mistic, Railroad shares, which have been very dull for some few dn8 past, were particularly Inactive today, the demand for these Issues being very light. The pressure against Steel became large In tho afternoon and It, too, dipped below the closing of yesterday. Distillers' Securities was again strong, being up nearly 2 points before noon. General Motors also advanced, but lost some of Its gain. Federal Mining and Smelting sustained further losses, tho common dropping over 10 and the pre ferred ovei G points. Following reports received on the floor that the Western storms had not done ob much damage as at first expected, tho market Improved slightly In the aft ernoon, but the betterment was not very pronounced, and business continued light. After a show of weakness late In the day there were moderate recoveries be fore the close. Baldwin showed a gain of nearly 2V& points.

Tho heltatln; tono of the New ork tnnrkot wns reflected In tho Phllnclelpnln list for a time today, but the chief re null wns to curtail the volumo of trans nctlons rnthcr than to depress prices apj preclably, Unldwln Locomotive Ignored tho wavorlnrj tendency nnd moved up about 3 points to a. now hlffh record. Electric StoraBe Battery and Pennsylva nia Salt were other firm spots. tVospect of an ordinance to regulate ;ltncys offset the startling figures given to Councils by the comp.iny purporting to show how hard tho new traffic had hit tho trolley system. Tho Street seemed Inclined to think that Mr. Mallard s flg-ni-.a w.r. cnminvhnt ixnirirerntcd. At all 7 events Union Traction moved UP tree tlonnlly, while Itopld Transit held steady It looks now as If thcro was a chance that ufirfc ii thn nrnnnaed IJroad Street SUU- way nnd Frankford elevated might actu ally begin soon, Judging by the passage through both branches of Councils of tho resolutions providing- for extra sessions on Juno 2.1 and 30 for tho purpose of act ing upon the various pending transit loan legislation, so that part or tno romniw can bo let out of tho 16,000,000 before tho summer Is over. In tho afternoon a sharp recovery oc curred In General Asphalt which, after selling down to 33ft, rose to 35V4, a gain of a full point over Inst night's final fig ures. Investors were picking up Penn sylvania on tho Bhowlng of Idle cars, which decreased markedly during the past fortnight. It Is known, too, that the big system's business through the first half of Juno was cxtromely good, and otriclnls of the road say they look for steady Improvement from now on. Slight recessions wcro rogisiereu m Lehigh Navigation, Cramp Shipbuilding, United Gas Improvement, United States Steel and Lake Superior during tho morn ing, but In no Instonco were offerings particularly extensive. Commission houses wcro advising tho acccptanco of profits recently accumulated with a view of repurchasing on any marked reaction. The feeling In conservative quarters ap peared to be that the market had been running a little wild of Into and that It required curbing, but confidence was ex pressed that the general tendency would remain upward for aomo time to come.

READING RAILWAY MAY USE PENNSY'S CAMDEN TERMINAL Raisltifjr of Rent and Abolishment of Ferry Privilege Cause of Deal. It la understood that Informal negotia tions, which have been in process at various times durlnc the last few years, for the South Jersey lines of the Phila delphia and Heading Hallway to use the Camden passenger terminal of the Penn sylvania Railroad, at the Federal street ferries, have been renewed. Several con ferences have been held by committees of officials of both roads, but definite details of the proposed terminal agreement have not been reached. If negotiations are successful the Read, ing will abandon its plan for bulldlne a new passenger terminal at Kalghn's Point to replace tho station recently burned. The Camden City Council asked for an Increased rental and then abolished the ferry privilege held by the Reading at Kalghn avenue, and the difficulty of ob taining another suitable terminal site caused that road's officials to renew the old Idea of seeking accommodation at tha Pennsylvania terminal.

In their weekly r. view, say of Philadelphia; W"KIV , Conditions In the local cotton and cotton yarn trade nro reported as being ex" trcmoly unsatisfactory. Most houses r. port that business Is very quiet and thera appears to bo a goneral lack of Interest Orders, for spot goods aro few, and at present there Is but little future Inoulrv and no chango Is looked for In the Immet dlate future. Manufacturers also repori business oa quiet, with the exception of some of tho hostory manufacturers and manufacturers of knit underwear. In tho local wool market prices are re. ported firmer. This la attributed to the fact that comparatively higher prloes ar. being paid to tho growers In the West than aro paid in the East The rulln figures for medium wools In Montana li 26 and 28o. In tho fleeoe and bright wool sections business Is not very active Tho mills In this city and vlolnlty re port an unsatisfactory goods market, and thero nppears to be but llttlo disposition to buy oxcept for aotual requirements. Among tho outtlng-up and piece-goods lino there is shown a llttlo more activity in business. Shirtwaist manufacturer! havo had a natlsfactory season. Manu facturers of cloaks nnd suits look for. ward to a good fall and winter business. Some of tho manufacturers havo reported ndvnnoe orders. Wlillo thore Is but lit. tlo chango In the business condition among the wholesalers of drygoods, job. bers, woolons, etc, have reported an ln creased volumo of business. Manufactur ers of dresses, especially among those who aro making high-grade, report busi ness active. Thero appears to bo little change in tho conditions as reported last week In tho hnrdwaro lino. While seasonable goods seem to bo in good demand and prices aro remaining firm, the volume of business Is not so largo as is ordinarily Been at this time of year. Collections are by no means normal, but aro reported at bolng slightly hotter than heretofore. MINING STOCK QUOTATIONS TONOPAH STOCKS.
