Speculatively , Uradtreet Says it has flerim an Extramieiy Dull Week , NEW 'YORK , July 2-J3radstreet's Fl- nancial Review tomorrow will say : This has been , speculatively , an extremely dumIl week. The market. for' several days has been reduced to dimensions of less than 150,000 shares a day. Commission business has been at a standstill and time operations of the professional clement , large and email , have been on a restricted scale. It has been , in aimort , a ease of amidaurn- mar dullness of time most pronounced kind. The war news haa been less effective than ever , so tar as arousing the spirit of speculation - ulation is concerned , though at the beginning - ginning of the week there was some no- cession of bearishness on time reports concerning - cerning yellow fever among the troops in Cuba and Florida , while the idea that Spain would sue for peace anti the allegation that I flermany hind assummeti a satisfactory at tittule In regard to' our opetatIon in the I'hiilppincs imtl a share in creating time stronger untlertono which finally asserted it- self. self.The market was dull and heavy In the cathy hart of the week , but on Wednesday it became firmer In tomme , with a slight adVance - Vance in time general list anti seine more markctl appreciation in some of the itiJtts- trials , This was In a measure founded ott the drift of the war developments. but It would io seem to have grown omit of the favorable impression created by the progress - ress of time crops and tIme harvest , by the reporteti success of the efforts to restore nnti maintain hIgher rates , in vIew of the large tonnage in sight for time ntmtmtnn % months , anti by the weakening or toreign exchange rates , mainly on lirosPective large foreign purchases of our lmrodtmcts. These , of active an- as well as the Indications tumnai trade anti the abuntiance of capital in the country , have apparently protiuced large titian- ft more confident tcnmper nimiong cliii iaterests , though the absence of any pumbiic speculative participation is a bar to progress in time direction of nmanipumlntion for hmigumer prices. Current earilitigs have also made less favorabie comparisons with the results of last year , which tends to checjt active spoctmiation in railroad properties - erties , though it is understooti that preparations - tions are being matle for active traflic on a large scale as soon as the present crops begIn to move , While time feeling of the professional ciement , wliicim at present mo- nopolisea the mnrirket , Is bearish for the muo is ndorhying semmtiniemmt to imient , there an time effect that prices are likely to Improve in the future. STAGE EMPLOYES ARE HAPPY Transacting Mieii Regular flusineNs ltit No Slgmi' of F'rIeLDmL or Vii llenNiimi times's. The alliance of stage employes has StOppCl all its wrangling anti fighting And the storm vimich at first threalemmed to do- 1)050 sonme of time ameers frOmmi their posi- ttons lmas now all blown over and time dde- gates are as friemitily anti sociable as If cverythimmg had always gone smoothly. During - ing time long sessions which are nccessitntc.i because of time heavy business the mnemhers emmtivcn time time by cracking jokes at one another and the fist-slinking unfriendliness of a few days ago is a timIng of the iast. Time bali is decorated with all sorts of signs gatimereti fromn the , iiitereimt hotels and business - ness houscs of the city anti at first sight of time viace one is bewildered 'with the array. Suspemmtletl from 1)0105 rIght mmdci' time prcsitleiit'S chair are several. Otmo member with artistic talents drew a grotesque likeness - ness of Secretary hart and placed it In full view of time conventiomi , Long sessions were heiti yesterday afternoon - noon and evemmiag in which more routine business was transncted. Time question of the Boston strike was again reverted to and the advisability of revoking the charter from the Baltimore local because of its not calling out members in Boston during time strike was discussed , but not acted aim sled- nitoly. Montreal , Canada , was admitted as a local of the alliance and the name of National Alliance of Theatrical Stage Emnployes was changed to National Alliance of Stage Em- ployes of the United States anti Cammada and the subject of making the association an International alliance was dropped. The offices of secretary and treasurer were made one with one man to act for both. It was resolved to allow all road men who went out with the union on a strike one-half of their regular wages. A motion was put before time convention to change tbo form of rule , btmt was lost. home rule has governed the alliance since its formation and no outside power has or will now have the right to govern it during strikes or other affairs connected with the stage empioyes.
