was quiet and at the outset there
was a little irregularity to prices.
Neither the advances or declines
amounted lo much, aside from a gain
of a point in Union Pacific. The coal
stocks were easier, including Head
ing and Pennsylvania.
A moderate demand arose and St.
Paul, Union Pacific and New York
Central advanced 1 . Heading 1 !
and the general market to a good
fraction above yesterday's closing.
Subsequently when the loans which
carry over until Tuesday were made
at 9 per cent the market promptly
weakened and advances wero quite
generally lost. Anaconda and Great
Northern preferred, fell 2 Vi under
last night's price and Heading,
Northwestern, Wabash preferred
and General Electric 1 to 1.I
Around 11 o'clock the market was;
quite ugin.
Monetary conditions hud a repressive!
effect on the general stock trading and '
business was exceptionally small.
Union Pacific was pushed up over 2
points to 190 1-2 in the face of the 10
per cent money rate. Other stocks
reflected the concern felt over money
from time to time, but in the main
made a better showing than would be
generally expected. Delaware & Hud

sively smaller as call money rates
advanced, 1 1 per cent ruling at 1
o'clock. The active list fluctuated
within a narrow limit, but maintain

shares of Adams Express sold at 301)
compared with 250, the preceding
sale on May 17. Pullman jumped 5
points.
In the late afternoon when Union
Pacific moved slowly upward to 191 1-2
other stocks began to show moderate
sympathy with the movement and St.
Paul, Southern Pacific, Reading and
Amalgamated Copper recovered to
their high prices of the morning. Pull
man extended its rise to 8 points,
touching 250.
Traders who were reluctant to carry
stocks over until Tuesday closed out

out the day's rise in St. Paul and
Reading and clipped off 1 1-2 of the ad
vance in Union Pacific. The general
market was about as inert as at any
time during the day since the money
Situation became dominant. The clos
