MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New Tork, July 1 There wa a sharp
change In the temper of speculation at
the opening of business at the Stock Ex
change today. The receipt of higher quo
tations from London and of buying orders
from that center led to an advance of
H to I'-j per cent, right at the start. Sugar
and the Grangers being in the lead. Be
fore the expiration of the first, halt hour,
however, the bears had succeede'd not only
In wiping out this Improvement, but in
bringing about a decline of considerable
proportions in a number of instances.
There were reports of heavy liquidations
and a a matter of act round amounts of
long stock were closed out on stop orders
In Chicago Gas, Sugar, Manhattan, and
one or two others, but In the general Hit
the selling was mainly for short account, a
fact which was plainly demonstrated later
In the session. In the decline Just noted
Chicago Gas was most conspicuous, de
clining 44 to W. Sugar fell from 1W4 to
lot-: Tobacco from ftrti to W4; Burling
ton and Qulncy from ?.'i to 70; North
west from 98" to 67Vi; St. Paul from 7'"i
to 73T; Rock Island from 64Kr to 63V:.; Man
hattan from 7?i to Ki, and so on. The
bearish feeling was very pronounced and
rumors were revived about large gold
Fhlpments by Saturday's steamers, al
though leading bankers denied that thsy
had received any order to export the yel
low metal. In the afternoon the absorp
tion of stocks for foreign account had a
telling effect and aa the belief generally
obtained that the expected declaration of
tho Chicago convention for free sliver has
been pretty well discounted, a general de
sire was manifested by the traders to cov
er shorts and go long at least for a turn.
The upward movement made rapid prog
resa toward the close, when It was stated
that ut least 2."i.0W shares of stock would
be shipped to Europe by Saturday's steam
ers and that the transfer offices of various
companies were unusually busy splitting
up full lots of stock Into ten-shares certi
ficates for the Europeans. Sugar ad
vanced 2 to lri: Chicago Gas, 2i to 5;
Tobacco. H',4 to til, and Manhattan, 2i to
9S. Other stocks Improved !i to 2 per cent,
and the advance was well maintained In
the final .trading, when speculation wns
tlrm in tone. The total sales were 274.J82
shares.
