NEW VORIC STOCKS AMI IIO.MIS. .Mnrl.rt llrondrr, lint Ilrm y Intrr- t'KtS lllllllll'lli NEW YORK, Aug. 20,-The sfnek market was somewhnt broader and more active today, but there was still no evidence of any large participation In tho market by the general public or lv ureat llimnclal Interests on a large scale. These question able expositions of the United Slates Steel stocks nnd the doubtful outlook for the labor situation are still a drag nn the tteii frill market, although tho market for the United States Steel stocks and their price movement are narrow. The market guardians of the stocks show themselves amply able to take charge of nil the stocks offered, showing that tin' company's shares have como to be closely held. Hut the supporters of the stocks are Inclined to tnkc profits on holdings thus acquired upon any advance In irl"c. and they bid up the prices when tin outside de mand ileveli'ps for the stocks. Under these artificial conditions the movements of the stocks have little significance. The general list showed n disposition today to Ignorn tho Steel stocks. The r'allroads concerned In the Northern Pacific settlement and others nllled bv Identical ownership or otherwise, resumed tho leadership of the market touny. This may have been based upon a published report of a prolonged conference yesterday at Har Harbor be tween the three financiers who conducted tho Northern Pacific contest and Its settle ment The Morcan nnd Harrlman roads were generally affected, In svmmithv Including Illinois Central. Chicago & Alton, South ern railway and Chicago. Indianapolis .fc Louisville. Tho anthracite carriers mani fested somo strength and the bituminous coal carriers made gains, although Norfolk A Western and Chesapeake & Ohio suf fered from profit-taking. A sham decrease In earnings of Norlolk & Western for tho second week In August seemed to empha size this disposition Some large Individual blocks of Southern Paclllc, Union Paclllc and St. Paul wero taken In the hint hour and those stocks rote l'ifini over last night. The stock market continued to show sen sitiveness to developments In the money nnd exchange market. A sham recovery In Btcrllng this morning led lo some re action from tho opening strength In stocks. Offerings of wheat bills wore reported smaller, In connection with reports of smaller seaboard wheat clearances, which caused a reaction In tho wheat market. Hut this Inlluence was lamelv offset by the largo rccelpth on account of Australian gold deposited at San Francisco. Hie subtreasury's debit balance at tho clearing house of J1.S52.S02 was caused by receipt of checks against gold on the Pa clllca coast to the amount of J1.40u,e00. A further shipment of J2,500.0o0 Is on tho way to San Francisco from Sydney. This makes It evident that the London murket will nnd a way to meet Its gold obligations to Now ork, without stress and possibly without actual shipments of gold. It Is to be noted, however. Hint United States treasury operations continued to drain the money market, the government's surplus thus far this month having reached J1,5.1I,0J1, while for the corresponding period of last year tho government's fiscal operations showed a dutlc.lt of JI,3M,563.

There wero few orders from the outside In evidence nnd sentiment In the pit was mixed to an unusual degree. Firm Liver pool cables and bad Texas crop news ut ilrst created no Impression, nor did re ports that trade conditions In dry goods centers wero rapidly Improving. Yet, be fore tho first hojr elapsed a strong under tone was developed and prices advanced some 3 to fi points in a scare of shorts, buying for New Orlcnns nccount and sup porting orders from abroad. The better feeling grew out of reports that spot mnr kets In the south were hardening rapidly on urgent export and domestic mill de mand, nnd that the crop In the enstcrn belt was being damaged by continued hard ruins. Aside from slight renctlons under Hurries of proflt-tuklng sales the market .held Ilrm all tho iate lorenoon and near mid-day picked up additional strength on nervous buying to cover shorts. Soon afte r mid-day the weekly government report Hindu Its appearance nnd Indicated de terioration in tho crop conditions In almost every section of the. south. Drouth was said to be causing rapid failure of the plant over most of Texas nnd other por tions of the so'Jthwey. Drouth In the northern and too much Tain In the southern portions of the central belt were com jilalncd of and hard rains and high winds had done dnmuge In the greater part of the enstcrn belt. This led to Increasing buy ing for both accounts In the early after noon, on which October stiffened to 7. Ijc nnd January to 7.53c. For Sic rest of tho duy the market whs more or less Irregular, though the ndvance wns well held. Flurries of prollt-taklng .und .waves of covering caused frequent vnrjattons In values. Firm ness In tho New Orlcnns market and shnrp advnnccs In leading southern spot markets helped to check selling for a reaction. Commission houses were noted ns fairly generous buyers of the fall and later jnonth. On tho moment of tho close realiz ing cnused a decline of 2 to -I points.
