NEW YORK. July ll.-Tho stock market
strikingly demonstrated Its Inherent
strength again today with a practical recovery -
covery of yesterday's losses. Closing prices
today were only slightly below those of
Saturday nnd In some exceptional coses
sharply above. The only conditions In
which any change had taken place were
purely technical. These were the elimina
tion of a weakly margined Jong account
and the cr.'atlon of a short Interest. Lon
don begun to sell stocks In Now York at
the onioning today , as It did yesterday , but
instead of coming upon a large account of
nearly exhausted margins , as was the case
yesterday , the opening decline invited buy
ing to cover the short contracts put out
yesterday. The buying from this source af
forded the principal support lo the market
In the early dealings.
It was particularly marked In Sugar and
the New York traction and [ Ms tttorks ,
which suffered most severely from beur
raiding yesterday. JJy the time this short
Interest had been covered 'the market came
to a btandbtUl , Ur- bulls apparently lack
ing courage 4o push their advantage In
face of the continued stiffness of the money
market , which held quite llrmly at about
the legal rate for call money. Shortly be
fore noon , however , a d.-termlned buying
movement developed In the great trunk
lines and with occasional Intervals of dull
ness continued for ahe rest of th * day.
spreading from one group to anothrr until
it embraced pretty much the whole list.
The agreement among the trunk lines to
restore rate * on grain to the seaboard was
apparently the caus > of the origin of the
buying In that group. St. Paul's Increase
In gross earnings for the llrst week in
July of $203K2 ! prompted the buying of the
grangers. The high rate for call money
was Ignored and very largo amounts' loaned
on the Stock exchange at 6 per cent. The
rate eased off to 4'4 per cent at one time ,
but rose ngnln to 6 per cent , the d > mand
apparently continuing largo for the In
creased Biipply available. Interior ex
changes continued to run against New
York , but yesterday's contrnctloi of loans
had apparently left the Now York banks
In an easier position. D mand sterling In
New York only held llrm under the stress
of the high money rate In London , but
sterling exchange In Paris nnd Berlin ad
vanced sharply , nnd discounts were easier
nt those c ntcra
Long sterling In New York weakened an
nddlU , ° nal fraction under the sales of fu
tures bnscd on the expected outward move
ment of merchandise to begin In n short
time. Among the special points of strength
In the late stock mnrkftt were Texas &
Pnclllc , which rose to 23 , and Kter the
whole southwestern group. Wall street had
a rumor of a contemplated merger of Wn-
bash and Mlswurl Pacific to nccount for
the strength of thos stocks. Northern Pa
clllo also scored a brilliant advance , re
covering more than Its dividend , which wns
token oft .today. There was a simultaneous
advance in Tennessee Coal , Colorado Fuel
and Amerlcnn Stel nndVlro , which rose
from 2 to 2si , nnd also In Chesapeake &
Ohio , Cleveland , Cincinnati , Chicago & St.
Louis and Laka Erie & Western preferred.
After a fractional reaction on professional
profit taking prices 'were ' mnrkJd up again
to near the best in the closing dealings.
Uonds rallied somewhat from the early
weakness In sympathy with stocks , but arc
slightly lower on the day. Total Bales , par
value , $2OSO.OOO. United StaUs new -Is , reg
istered , declined U nnd the old 4s , regis
tered , % In the bid price.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : The markets
hcrj were quiet todny , engaged In arrang
ing the smnll account. The. tone wns dull ,
with a 1lnal hardening < ln Americans nnd
Africans. Money Is stilt stiffening. The
banks got 3i to 4 per cent for settlement.
The bank bought 46,000 In gold bars. There
Is a good demand nt 77s lOd from France on
Spanish account. Americans wsro de
pressed until the afternoon , when New
York bought , despite , the hardening money
In New York and London. The close wns
iwell above .the worst. The strongest fea
tures were Atchlson preferred and North
ern Pacific common. The general settle
ment rate was 6 to 5V4 : for St. Paul , 4V4 !

CATTLE The cattle market today was
all right for the sellers , the demand being
good and the trade active at prices that
were steady to a shade higher. Local pack-
era all wanted cattle and although there
were In the neighborhood of seventy-live
loads of cornfed steers In the pens an early
clearance was effected. The average qual
ity of the cattle was good , In fact = o good
that a very considerable proportion of the
offerings brought $5.00 ind better , $5.50
being paid for some right good heavy
beeves.
Cows and heifers sold In practically the
same notches as yesterday , and the market
was not materially changed In any particu
lar. The demand for cow stuff continues
good right along , and the prices are llrm
so that on practically every day for some
time back the trade has been active and
entirely to the liking of sellers. Good
bulls were In fair demand at steady prices.
In some instances holders of common bulls
did not think that they sold quite so well
as on some days of late. Veal calves
brought the same old prices , $7.00 being
paid for the best.
Stockers and feeders -were In moderate
supply , but -there Is a great plenty com
ing considering the demand , which con
tinues light. The few cattle of that de
scription , however , offered on the market
sold at about steady prices , no material
change beingnoted. . Representative sales :

HOGS Conditions were all favorable to
the sellers this morning , the demand being
Jorge and the advices from other market
points encouraging. The result was thafthe
market at 'this point opened 5c higher and
fairly active at the advance , so that the
most of the hogs changed hands early In
the morning. In some cases hogs sold 7,5c
higher , and perhaps the situation could he
best expressed by calling the , general mar
ket a big 5c higher. The hogs sold largely
at $3.95 , with < v sprinkling at $3.97VJ and pom *
good light at $4 , It will be. noted that some
heavy hogs brought $3.97H. but they were
very choice , or what are termed fat-backs
on the market.
One week ago today was a holiday , but
the hogs sold today 17c higher than on
Monday nnd Wednesday of last week and
30o higher than two weens ago. The av
erage price paid for hogs today was the
highest of any day since June 10 of laat
year. Representative soles :

SHEEP Eight loads were reported In this
mornlnn nnd In addition there were a few
lands hold over from yesterday. The mar
ket wns slow and the foi-enoon wns pretty
well advanced before much business wns
transacted. The prices iiald were pretty
close to steady. Buyers seem to feel that
preBcnt prices arc too hlRh ns compared
with the way the product IH selling down
east , and that Is the reason for the market
being slow nd dult. Another thins that U
noticeable is Hint only good fat stuff la
wanted , and 'that while the demand for such
Is all right the common kinds are not
soucht after.
