'LONDON IS A SELLER
And Stocks Take a Tumble, Though
Declines Are Slight
I & N. SHOWS THE MOST WEAKNESS

CORDAGE AND S. fc W. STOCKS ADVANCE
New York, July 1L The stock market
teems still unable to escape from its dull
and listless condition, and to-day there was
the same insignificant trading, while the
fluctuations in the general list were eTen of
less importance than those of last week.
Bales lor foreign account were the principal
feature in the making of prices, but while
these were prominent only in the Iouis
ville and 2vashville, St. Paul and
one or two other stocks, they,
in the absence of any particular
demand, served to give the whole list a
heavy to weak temper despite the favorable
nature of the Government crop report This
latter influence, however, seemed to have
been fully discounted and no more than
served to check the declining tendency
inaugurated by the sales for foreign account.
The indisposition to trade was never more
marked, and apart from the few leaders the
whole market remained oppressively dull,
and without character throughout the entire
session, though sympathy with the active
hares caused a heavy temper and drooping
quotations in the forenoon.
Ii. & X, was the weak point in the list,the
pressure upon it being most severe in the
early dealings, and at its lowest point it
showed a loss of 1 per cent from its final
figure of Saturday. How much of this sel
ling was lor foreign account Is a matter of
eoniectnre. but there was a notable absence
of support, and its price yielded readily for
some time. On the other hand Burlington
was inclined to respond to the improved
prospects of the corn crop as indicated
by the Government report and a
fractional advance in the lace of
the General weakness resulted In the early
dealings, but this sain could not be main
tained, and with the rest or the list it retired
below the level of its flist price. St. Paul dis
played some animation, but the only other
Jeature n as the weakness in Louisville and
Nashville, and later In Union Pacific, fol
lowed by special movements in Cordage and
the Susquehanna and 'Western stocks, the
last tu o being advanced 2 and 4 per cent re
spectively without opposition.
The market finally closed dull and barely
steady after ono of the most uninteresting
sessions ever held.
Kail road bonds were quiet in the main,
bnt there uns renewed inquiry for the
Beading issues, and all the junior Issues
were largely traded in at advancing prices,
though the pains were not of special Im
portance except in a few of the inactive
bonds. The market displayed no pro
nounced leatnre and the tendency was
rather in the npward direction, no sympa
thy being shown with the decline in stocks.
Burlington convertibles rose 1 to 108, but
fcan Francisco 6s lost 2 at 107. Other changes
eie generally insignificant.
Government bonds were dull and steady.

stupefied condition. It -nas killed, and meas
ured 11 feet 31nches, and at the largest part

CEREALS WEAKEN
On tlw Government Report Showing Im
proved Crop Conditions Provisions
Turn Upward Again.
CHIC t GO The Government report show
ing the condition of the crops rather better
than expected exerted a depressing effect
to-day npon all cereals. The condition of
coin and oats was especially better than the
trade was looking for and this fact, taken in
connection with the other bearish factors
which include the anti-option bill, the labor
troubles, the cholera In Europe, the silver
bill, with the June weather, the weak cables
and the general stagnation In speculation,
led to much depression. Long property
came out freely, stop loss orders became
operative and there was more or less selling
for the short account. The buying was slow
and cautions and confined largely to shorts
who had a good profit in former sales and
wore disposed to secure It. Provisions were
the only bull card and they were not only
sustained but aggressively advanced, pork
gaining 20c, lard 7c and ribs 5a. Wheat,
corn and oats opened weak, and although at
some recovery from their lowest depths,
were still under Saturday's closlnir quota
tions when trading closed to-dny. Wheat Is
Jo lower, corn Jc and oits ljo decline.
The movement of new wheat Is Jnst start
ing In, and operators are rather inclined to
await developments. The big decrease in
the visible supply was a surprise to the
trade and caused the rally in prices. The
recovery was helped by indications of wet
weather.
The extreme break in the price of Septem
ber corn from the close Saturday to the low
point to-day was IKc The receipts were
away over the estimate at S40 cars, and the
grading was the best of the jearjWithlOS
cars of No. 2 corn on tbn tracks. The local
stocks were Increased 375,000 bushels, mak
ing corn of all kinds In Chicago exoeed 4,000,
000 bushels, with the aid of the bear news
the trade readllv forced the bloom corn on
the market, bnt it was less than 500,000 bush
els, and much less than expected. The late
cable Quoted July corn tied no at Liver
pool.
Oats were active, weaker and lower. July
started at Ho premium, but later sold at He
discount.
The provision trade got brought up with
a round turn again to-day. From a decline
or 10c at the opening pork advanced to 23c
over the closing price on Satuiday, and re
tained the most of the advance to the end.
There was not as much change In lard or
ribs, the speculative activity rinding its full
est expansion In the article of barreled pork.

0TIIEES STEADY AND UNCHANGED
Monday, JuIt 11.
The dullness superinduced by the labor
troubles continues to be the most marked
ieature of the market for local securities.
It is difficult to engage the attention of
bankers and brokers for any reasonable
length of time unless one talks about the
situation at Homestead, the cause of the
lockout and the probable result, and it is
therefore next to impossible to get any
news or gossip bearing on the market. The
dullness, however, fails to have any mate
rial influence in the direction.of depressing
prices. There is no weakness of conse
quence in any part of the list, and under
neath the surface of the market the same
strong, healthy tone that prevailed
for some time prior io the be
ginning of the war at Homestead
is still plainly observable. Best opinion
bolds most of the list at current prices de
cided purchases, and inclines to a belief
that the leading specialties will again be
come active and show increased strength
when the one factor responsible for the
dullness has been eliminated. There was a
better feeling to-day along the street incon
sequence of tbe pacific reports from up the
Monongahela and the probability of a
speedy restoration of affairs there to their
normal condition, as a result of the ordering
of the militia to the rescue, and It is reason
able to expect that an Improvement In trad
ing will follow a termination of the trouble.
Trading on 'change to-day was very light,
nnd the proceedings, as a whole, almost en
tirely perfunctory. The Items covered were
Luster Mining Company, Duquesne Traction
stock and bonds and Philadelphia Company.
The latter dropped a little under the mar
keting of a few shares, bnt neither tbe sell
ing nor the course of prices carried any
significance. The sentiment on the stock re
mains conservatively bullish. There is so
reason why Its price should decline and
there aie several why it should adance.
the main one being of course, tbe decided
improvement in the company's physical and
financial condition. The friends of tho
stock declare it to be one ot the best pur
chases on tho list. People's Natural Gas
and Pipeage continued to showstrength,
from which the inference was drawn that
there -nas still hope In some quarters of an
extra dividend. There was a little inquiry
for, Pennsylvania Gas at 10, but all the other
meinbet sof the group were featureless.
Duquesne Traction was somewhat stronger
and tbe various street rail v. a v bond issues
exhibited an Improved tendency. There
were no noteworthy changes In prices, how
ever, and the inquiry on 'change was mea
ger. Central Tiactlon appeared to be
stronger. Pleasant Valley was all but neg
lected, and l'.tB. Traction was off to 26
asked, no bid. Citizens and Pittsburg Trac
tions were steady to firm at about last
week's closing prices.
In mining, electric and miscellaneous
shares, there was little or no change, ex
cepting a slight stiffening in Luster, and a
little softening In U. S. Glass, common.
There was, however, as indicated above, no
pressnre to sell anything, and, perhaps, less
disposition to Buy.
One of the brokers reported the silo off
'change of a thousand shares of stock in one
lot, but refused to give particulars. Other
noted transactions In street railway bonds
"at about the market," and others did a
little business in Philadelphia company and
Duquesne Traction at about exchange,
prices. All or which shows that the market
is not quite so dull as the exchange records
Indicated.
At tho regular meeting of the Board of
directors of the Citizens' Traction Company
this afternoon, tho legnlar semi-annual div
idend of three percent was dechued, pay
able July J8 Transfer books will bo closed
lrom July 13 to 18 inclusive. A number of
street people had expected an increase In
the dividend rate, but. as heretofore stated,
the necessity of large payments out of this
year's net earnlirgs for improvements made
tne postponement 01 tne consideration or an
increase imperative.
The directors of the Pleasant Vallev Kali
way Company will probably declare the
regular dividend Wednesday as stated, bnt
there will be nothing hut an -Informal dis
cussion of the deal looking to the absorption
of the road by the P. A. & M. people.
Westlnghouse Electrio common was of
fered on 'Change at 28 and the scrip at 90 per
cent. Pittsburg & Mexican Tin was quoted
at 25o bid and Howard Plate Glass at 100
asked.
A good deal of curiosity to know some
thing about tbe June receipts of tbe leading
street railway lines lsmamfestod along the
street. Officials are opposed to publishing
such matters, however, and therefore noth
ing but estimates can be given. A gentle
man who keeps close tab on street railway
maners lurnisuea wie louowing nguros, all
being estimates excepting those for P. & B.
Traction, which are official: Pittsburg 4
Duquesno Combine, $70,000; Citizens' Trac
tion, $60,000: Pleasant Valley, $33,000; P., A. 4
M. Traction, $33,000: P. 4 B. Traction, $25,7C0:
Central Traction, $10,500.
After the adjournment of the Citizens'
dltectors meeting this afternoon, Mr. Magee
told the witter that the receipts of the road
for June, nnd for the six months of 1892, with
comparisons, were read at the meeting, but
that the onlv statement that ho remembered
was that the Jnne receipts this year ex
ceeded those of June, 1891,' by upwards of
$7,000.
Local Insurance men sav that bis fires In
the South are occurring so freqnently that
some of tbe southern insurance companies
will likely be wiped out of existence before
long.
The sentiment in favor of turning on the
light Is attalninir such proportions that
street railway officials here will soon be
compelled to heed it, and do as they do In
Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and Baltl
moie publish the lecelpts of their lines
either weekly, monthly or quarterly. It Is
due all wno aro interested, and there is no
good reason why it should not be done.
The total exports of gold since January 1
amount to $44,708,992, against $71,096,721 In
1891 , distributed u follows: Great Britain,
16302,143: France, $12,350,228; Germany, $18,

South America, $1,042,043. All other coun
tries, 110.500.
The delay in extending rapid transit
through and beyond the Wo'tEnd district
and Cliartiers township is said to be due to
the fact that the West End Railway Com
pany controls all the stieets over which any
new road would have to pass toieach tho
city. The outcome of this state of affairs, It
Is expected, will be that the West End peo
ple will either make terms with projector-)
of other lines or extend their own Into the
territory indicated.

A FAIR JULY TRADE
In Merchandise Despite Various Re
stricting Influences.
BEEADSTDFFS CONTIKUE WEAK.
Dairy Products Firmly Held at the Kecent
Advances. '
AN IMPEOTED DEMAND FOR FLOUR.
Office or The Dispatch,
Pittsbubo, July 11. (
The volume of business in wholesale mer
cantile lines has shown fair proportions
thus far.in July, despite "the labor troubles
and the fact that the movement at this
season of the year invariably begins to
show a slow and hesitating tendency. Trade
to-day was satisfactory in nearly all lines,
especially for Monday, and in one or two
branches rather unusual activity was noted.
There was heavy purchasing of provisions,
round descriptions of groceries and country
produce, and in well-informed circles it was
intimated that such purchasing was for
account of contracts for supplies for the
militia to be quartered at Homestead. Col
lections were reported fair.
Regarding prices few radical changes de
veloped. Breadstulfs continued to show
ease In the aDsence of any urgent demand.
The demand for flour, however, was better.
tho piesumptlon being that consumers wero
around to lay in supplies before the new
whoat flours came on the market. The ease
in grains was ascribed to lower prices In
Chicago. Oats were offering there this
morning 20 per bushel below last week's
closing prices.
Merchandise brokers generally reported
business slow, which Indicates that whole
salers are pretty well stocked.
Grain, Flour and Feed.
Only one transaction occurred on call at
the Grain and Flour Exchange this morning
