UNION PACIFIC ALSO ADVANCES Steel and Other Storks Decline Because of Sales to Seenre Panda to Invest In Hsrrlstsst, NEW YORK. July 24.-The action of Southern Pacillo today, which rose to 90 V4, wa regarded as strongly confirmatory of the conviction that an Increase Jn the divi dend rate Is Imminent. No official informa tion of the plans of the dlreetors could be secured beyond the information that the directors would !e In sesalon tomorrow, the executive committee not until Inter. This information was considered to Indicate that a period of speculative activity in Southern Paclflo would Intervene before dividend action shall be announced. The profes sional traders followed the movement on this supposition, very Industriously. Borne of tho rumors used with effect regarding the probable dividend action were not con tent with asserting the Intention to ral.ie the rate to 6 per cent, but Insisted on a coming 7 per cent rate. Tho official esti mates of the year s earnings mihllHhed last week showed a balance of 3:.1,&75,1Sf after the allowance for the dividend 011 the pres ent outstanding preferred stock. ThlH Is equivalent to about 12 per cent on the com mon stock of the company. The 33'!."0O.0' 0 of new preferred stock, now In process of payment does not yet draw dividends, tho requirement for which would be 3iftU0.n00 each year. It will be seen that either tho 6 or 7 per cent dividend would leave a large margin of surplus in tho present rate of earnings. The weight of opinion in th8 trading element today was In fiivor of the 6 per cent rate. Vnlon Pacific sympathized with the Junior security today. Tills served to rectify, to some extent, the bad effect of Vnlon Pacific's recent poor response to the movement in Southern Pacific, which threw suspicion on the latter movement. In view of Vnlon Pacific's large holdings of Southern Pacific and Its consequent profit from an Increase In the latter's dividend, Vnlon Pacillo whs expected to move In harmony with Southern Pucllic. The movement was not without some In fluence on the general list, but in nothing like the proportion that would he expected usually of such a considerable market demonstration In a prominent stock. This wss partly due to the fact that there whs some switching of traders' accounts from other stocks Into the Harrlmuns. Accounts In other stocks were sold out to secure resources to put Into Southern Pacific. This process was reported In operation in re gard to Vnited States Steel and helped to account for the heaviness of that stock. The character of the discussion over tho iron strike episode has been followed bv a diminution of the talk of an Intended Increase In the Vnited States Steel divi dend at the meeting of the directors next week. Bt. Paul showed the chtsest sym pathy with the Harrlmans. and Amalga mated Copper developed a degree of later strength In compliance with the better tone of the foreign market for the metal. The Hill stocks were backward, owing to the difficulties which have bee pointed out In the way of a cutting of a Burling ton melon for those stockholders. Monev on call continued to decline, and at tho same time foreign exchange made, a fur ther encroachment on the narrow margin which divides it from the gold export point and kept that prospect in view. Of the day's total sales of 682, AOO flhares. 149.4cfl were of Southern Pacific and 176.000 of Vnlon Pacific, thus lllustrAtlng the un evenness of the day's market. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales par value 31,214,000. Vnited States 2s registered declined V4. while the coupons advanced V4 per cent on call. The following wss the range of prices on the New York Stock exchange: Salts.

During the series, good merinos met with Increased competition on the part of American buyers and the closing rates were partially 6 per cent higher than the previous auctions. Klne crotss breeds realised unchanged prices, while poor growth and scoured merinos show a decline of 6 to 10 per cent. Cape of flood Hope and Natal wools were 6 per cent cheaper.

There was a sprinkling of all kliuK but no great number of any one thing. The mar ket aa a whole was slow and to that ex tent at least unsatisfactory. Packers were late In getting out Into the yards and It was evident right from the Start that their orders were not sufficiently pressing to make an active market. The whole market was a drag from start to finish. Some of tho best cattle perhaps did not sell so very much lower, but the general tendency was lower on everything. Medium to common kinds of fed steers, such as show more or less grass and all kinds of medium to pretty decent grass, westerns have been gradually working to a lower basis all the week. Such cattle are 2T,c, and In some cases as much as 4to lower than a week ago. Chicago closed ?ff 40c lower last week, while there was little change at this point. This week the Omaha market Is having its turn and prices are being forced down to a point that will bring them An line with Chicago. It Is difficult for the country to realize Just how much lower these cattle are. The cow trade was very dull today. Some sellers who happened to have what buyers wanted, thought they got out In pretty good shape and about us well as yester day, but, on the other hand, the general market was lower. Grass cows, like grass steers, have sold off sharply "lis week, but strictly good dry lot cows and heifers have held up very well. Good welgnt feeders hove been In fair demand every day this week and have sold to good advantage., but. as noted before in these columns, the light stocks, even the best grades, have been a drug on the mar ket. Prloes have slumped so rapidly that it has been almost Impossible to keep up with the market. They are at the best 25f(50c lower than the best time a week or ten days ago and some grades are 6075c lower. Representative sales: BEEP STEERS. Ho. A. Pr. N. At.

Tho receltps were large and advices from eastern points were not st all encouraging. Mure than that, packers were complaining that the eastern mutton msrkot was exceedingly bad. Whatever may have leen the reason, It was very evident that packers either did not care fnr fresh supplies of any consequence, or else were determined to break the market. They were very backward about making bids, and when they did bid. their offers were decidedly lower. To relieve the pres sure loc.Uly, milto a number of sheep were shipped out without being sold. Such stuff as did sell went at prices that were right at 2."c lower than yesterday morning.
