THE RAILWAYS IN JUNE rAssKxr.En men elated over the niSIXESS OF THIS MOVTII. Freight Officials Say nuilnrM Xott Movlnj?, Kxeept Ciraln and ProTllons, in Carried at Tariff. Local passenger men are gratified over the business of June. With the Big Four all former records have been eclipsed. Travel to the East, north and West, especially Los Angeles business, has been a surprise to 21. M. Bronson, assistant general passenger agent, and unusually good rates have been obtained on all classes of travel. One of the busiest men in the city has been W. W. Richardson, district passenger agent of the Pennsylvania and Vandalla lines. He states that their business has been a surprise, necessitating the hauling of extra sleepers on trains east-bound and to. Michigan pleasure resorts, the through service to Mackinac and Petoskey being highly appreciated by patrons. District Passenger Agent Ilayior, of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton and Monon, was yesterday looking over the business of June, and is greatly pleased with the increase shown at Indianapolis, not only In the business of the jC., H. & D., but in that of the Monon. Travel to the Northwest his been unusually heavy the last month, the Monon getting ... ..11 ' At 1 t . till 1 n luti suarc ui mu uusmess. Aiinuugn at the corresponding period last year the same roads were hauling a good many United States troops, the business of that class has been overcome and handsome increases made. The Sunday excursion business was indulged in to a greater extent than in June last year, and fully S3 per cent, more excurelonists carried. The last two weeks some of the lines have been carrying a good many picnic rartles, and in the aggregate the business of June has been highly gratifying to the. representatives of the roads. The Lake Erie & Western has made less noise " than some roads, but C. F. Daly, general passenger agent, says he has no complaint to make over the business they bave done. The prospects for a good July business, passenger men say, axe very promising, and on several days of the month will tax the roads to their capacities , to furnish required equipment. The Freight Rate Situation. The volume of traffic now moving both cast and west and north and south is a surprise to freight men. and as a rule it is being carried at good rates. Aside from the controversy between the Atlantic port gulf lines and Missouri river business rates west bound are characterized by the same degree of firmness which has prevailed for several weeks. Up to the present time the trunk lines have managed to keep out of the controversy, but the marked decline in the gulf rate, coupled with the fact that other points beyond the Missouri river were becoming affected, presented new features which it was feared might lead to a great and unexpected quarrel. The gulf controversy is fast approaching a climax. This week two of the principal rail connections of the gulf route, rather than disturb the general Western traffic, withdrew their gupport, leaving the Pittsburg & Gulf alone in its low rate trattic. There in every reason to believe that the troubles will end within a few days. The east-bound rate situation, freight officials say.' remains much the same. While there is manipulation in grain and provision rates, all other classes of freight tariff rates are well held. The action ten days ago of one of the lias tern lines in bidding for grain tonnage resulted in a general scramble for business, and rates tumbled in a most disorderly fashion. The Grand Trunk put in a late on grain of 11 cents on corn to New York and 13 cents on oats, and its competitors met the reduction promptly, but no new or marked reduction in other commodities has been discovered. North-and-south roads are setting a good example to the cast-and-west lines in their methods. It is stated that never in the history of the roads north of the Ohio river have they acted as bonorably in rate matters In the last two rears. The prosperity of the car works S'orth and the introduction of timber cut in the Southern States for the large slowburning business buildings of the North has given the Southern and Northern lines an unprecedented heavy tonnage of lumber and timber. The running of fast trains carrying the products of the South, such as fruits tind vegetables, has created a business which the oldest of freight men never even

lireameu OI. OUUUlWdiu mc ompiucma iii machinery for industries springing up in the South and other articles of Northern prinluction have brought the south-bound traffic up to compare favorably with that of the north-bound freights. Shipments of provisions and certaline products are showing a striking Increase. Pernonal, Local and fieneral ISotes. Several of the big Class H engines have been gent to Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg for frejght service. S. R. Stites has been appointed agent of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois at Geasle, vice W. J. Lewis, resigned. C. E. Schaff. general manager of the Rig Four lines, passed through the city yesterday and will return this morning. The Indiana, Illinois' & Iowa has decided to increase its capital JI.OW.OOO. and the road will be brought to a high standard. The directors of the Big Four met in New Tork on Wednesday, but took no action on paying a dividend on the common stock. Freight traffic on the Lake Erie & Western is so heavy that the company Is short of power and has leased three engines from the Northern Ohio. The Lake Shore's surplus, after paying dividends for the lx months ending June 3. will be $173,122, compared with $73,124 in 1S and $10,044 in 1837. 3. R. Ainslee, of Chicago, will on Aug. 1 retire from the position of vice president and general manager of the Chicago terminal Transfer Railway Company. The promoters of the Southern Indiana road are raid to have abandoned the plan of extending the line to Terre Haute and will make Linton its western terminal. Travel on Train 20 over the Pennsylvania line is now so heavy that it is hauled much of the time In two sections, and daily between Columbus and Pittsburg in two sections. C. P. Ilovey. general baggage agent of the Cotton-belt lines, has been appointed commercial agent of the company at Texarkana. and is succeeded as general baggage gent by W. Godbold. The freight officials -of the Chicago and Ohio river lines were In session at Chicago yesterdav considering rate matters. There is a probability of iron and coal rates being advanced in this territory. It is stated that the past week more tickets have teen soli to ttid Ulchigaa

It is practically a new road In the last three years, so maiked have been the improvements. On Tuesday the two powerful express engines built at the shops of the Pennsylvania at Altoona were tested on the steep mountain grade. These engines have elghty-ineh driving wheels and are built for power and speed, there being some radical departures from the ordinary passenger locomotive. These new engines will be used on the Atlantic City line. The report of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for May, 1SS9, compared with May, 1S?S. shows: Lines dlrectlv operated May earnings, increase. S9.000. For the rive months ending May 31, 1S99. compared with the same period of 1S3S, net earnings, decrease. $S4.fm Lines west of Pittsburg and Erie for May, net earnings, increase. 1214,tw. For the five months, net earnings, increase, $655,000. Passenger officials are looking into the effect of the trolley lines which parallel the steam roads in the country on passenger earnings and are surprised to find that the competition is by no means as Important as they had been led to believe it would be. Roth the Lake Shore and the Big Four find that way stations on their lines, which come in competition with the trolley lines, are showing much better earnings from passenger service than for some years past.

The hearing of the Colonial Dimes suit was concluded to-day, and Justice Bookstaver granted the lawyers until July L to submit briefs regarding the rights of three societies to the title "Colonial Dames. After various members of the two defendant societies, the National and Rhode Island, had testified. Colonel Bartlett offered rebuttal testimony, calling Mrs. Gardiner, wife of the district attorney ot New York and president of the plaintiff society, the Colonial Dames ot New York. She created a tempest by saying on the stand: "Why. Mrs. John and Mrs. Ely. Mrs. Rhlnelander and Mrs. Livingston, admitted to me that they had done wrong to take our names." T4, v . The court was in an uproar "It s not so. shouted the women partisans of the defendant societies. Amid the protests of counsels and the shouts of the court officers for order, Mrs. Gardiner walked from the witness chair, and as she passed some of the rival Dames, one woman remarked: "You ought to be ashamed of yourself." Then there was more wrangling. AH the Dames tried to talk at once, and the court officers were powerless to stem the flcod. Finally Mrs. Jones was recalled, and vehemently denied that she had said what Mrs. Gardiner had attributed to her. There was nearly a personal encounter in court between Mrs. Gardiner and Mrs. Jones, but actual hostilities wers averted, and friends of the rival Dames got between thm. Then the trial ended. It is estimated that it will cost about $10.000 to determine what set of ladles have the exclusive right of calling themselves Colonial Dames, and it looks as if the lawyers were earning their fees ia a vary .agreeable

The New York stock market showed the effect of continued profit-taking yesterday. It was considered a foregone conclusion that this should prove to be the case and most of the traders went to the board room in the morning bearish in sentiment. The approach of a triple holiday, coupled with the week's sharp advance ia prices, was considered sufficient reason for a reaction. The lively buying after the opening for London account seemed for a time to refute the position of bears, but later ln the day, when this demand had been satisfied and announcement was made of a $2,000,000 gold shipment to go out on Saturday In spite of the low price for sterling exchange, the bears gained renewed confidence and the market sagged away without much Interruption until the last. There is a contradiction difficult to explain ln the fact that the needs of London money market are responsible for the drain of gold from New York with Its deleterious effect on stock values ln this market, while the buying for London account, in spite of the money stringency there, was about the only factor f strength in New York market yesterday morning. The wetk.y statement of the Bank of England shows thui the bank has succeeded in increasing Its atocK of gold only abqut 800,000 during the week, while the demands on It by the money market, incident to the Stock Exchange settlement, have resulted in the meantime in an expansion in its loan of over 26,000. The proportion of reserve to liability Is thus reduced from 42.44 to 37.C9 per cent., a very striking change ln view of the widely expressed uneasiness ln England over the present low stage of the bank's gold reserve. The fall ln British consols of 5-16 was due to cash sales, probably connected with the state of the bank's reserve. That the return did not . have a greater effect on the Itondon stock market was probably due to the reassuring opinion of the Biltlsh chancellor of the exchequer expressed Wednesday night on the subject of the reserve of the Bank of England. The local New York stock market, owing td the sustaining effect of the buying for London account, fared pretty well In spite of the undoubtedly heavy profittaking incident to the approaching holiday, the depressing effect of the gold announcement, the flurry in call money and a growing apprehension that the disbursements of July dividends and Interest may not be reflected In the money market for a considerable period after July 1. The profittaking was conspicuous in New York Central and Manhattan. The former shows a net loss of a point and the latter nearly two points. Consolidated Gas rose at one time five joints on rumors of a settlement of the local gas war, but reacted again. The Industrials and specialties generally were heavy,. Including Sugar, the Tobacco stocks and the city traction stocks. Louisville, Norfolk & Western preferred. Rock. Island, Atchison preferred and Denver & Rio Grande preferred were among the stocks which showed the best support. The bond market was generally strong, the Erie and Colorado & Southern issues being prominent. Total sales, par value, $2,630,000.

June 29. The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow: The wool market has continued active and strong. During the past week prices have reached the highest figures seen In more than a year and the tendency at this writing is unmistakably upward. Manufacturers, traders and speculators have been operating quite freely, both the large and small mills being represented in the market, and all have apparently come to the conclusion that It'a no use to stand out longer against the inevitable rise ln wool. Prices exceeding 50c, clean, for territory wools have been freely paid, choice selected staple commanding as much as 53 54c. Some large lines of wool have been taken at current quotations. The strength and buoyancy shown by the market were accentuated by the reports received from the London wool sales, which opened on Tuesday with a good attendance and competition and offerings of 234,000 bales. The continued strength and Increased activity shown in the goods market has naturally exerted a strengthening Influence on the wool market. The sales of the week at Boston amounted to 5,408,800 lbs cf domestic and 705.000 foreign, making a total of 6.113,800 lbs, against a total of 6.654,400 for the previous week and a total . of 1.261.500 for the corresponding week last year. Sales since Jan. 1. 1899, amounted to 124.638,200 lbs, against 64,905,310 last year at this time. LONDON, June 29. There was a full attendance of buyers at to-day's wool auction sales. Fine cross-breds and merinos were in firm demand. German representatives operated more freely, dividing merinos equally with the home trade. The continental buyers were eager bidders for locks and pieces at high rates. A large quant tlty of low to medium cross-breds realized 507 per cent, below the May series.

WEAKER WHEATMARKET

conflicting sews with pni:ro.DEIIANCE IX DEARS FAVOR. Damage Reports front Russia .galn Promise to Flsjnre In Market Prices Provisions Lower. CHICAGO. June 2?. Heavy additions to tock in the Northwest was a phase of the situation In wheat to-day that caused it to weaken after a considerable show or strength. September closed at a decline cf ic compared with yester day. Everything else on the' floor was heavy, corn declining UHc oats closing a shade lower and previsions ZMQhc lower. Weakness characterized the opening ln wheat. Weather was favorable for the harvesting of winter wheat and the drought of spring. Liverpool cables were disappointing, showing declines in some futures, and Northwest receipts, though showing some falling off, were still too heavy to permit of any bullishness from that source. There was ln addition an Inclination to even up on trades over the holidays and there factors ruled the market for the first halt hour. September opened at 74'c, compared with yesterday's clos ing price of 74'ic It soon declined to 74c, then gradually turned strong, and though many minor fluctuations occurred, the tendency ln the market was toward higher prices until late ln the after noon. Reports from the Northwest were far from satisfactory concerning growing wheat. Many complaints of damage were received, principally from rust. while from the winter wheat country reports ot harvesting operations were disappointing in some cases. The Northwest markets showed strength even when this market was declining. This was regarded as evidence of. the truth of the damage reports and It had a strength ening effect on the local market. Russian news became somewhat of a factor again. ITlvate ad vices from Russia declared that country would not produce over half a crop and a noticeable increase in ths buying occurred when this became known. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were 511 cars, against 515 last week and 13 a year ago. Chicago receipts were 122 cars, eleven of contract quality. Total primary receipts were 7V2.000 bushels, compared with 0,000 bushels last year. Atlantic port clearances were large, 731.000 bushels, but New Tork reported enly ten loads taken for export to-day. Et. Louis reported that new wheat arriving was of the best grade In a number of years. Thers was considerable covering by shorts during the session and ln the absence of selling of importance the September price gradually moved up to 74J74c. Shortly after noon the market turned weak. Minneapolis stocks of wheat were estimated to show an Increase of 500,000 bushels this week and Duluth stocks probably a similar addition. This checked buying in a hurry and when Chicago's estimated increase was put at 200,000 bushels the selling movement became predominant and prices slid off quite rapidly. The decline was taken advantage of by room traders to raid the market In a small way and marked weakness was shown in the last few mluutea. September finally declined to 74c and closed at that price. Corn was dull and heavy. The market was Influenced by favorable weather and continued large receipts and by the continued July liquidation. Country offerings were small, however, and a sharp falling off In receipts was predicted for next week. Receipts to-day were 1.023 cars. The cash demand was small. September ranged from 33T4S34C to 34c and closed UHc lower at 34 y 34Vo. Oats were quiet and easy, the weakness being more marked in July than ln September. July was offered freely and showed closing decline ot ftc The weakness was mostly ln sympathy with corn. Trading was small, the demand for both cash and futures being moderate. Receipts were 232 cars. September ranged from 21c to 21 21?ic and closed a shade lower at 2l4c Provisions were quiet and heavy, with more pressure on July products than on the more distant futures. The packers were the best sellers, probably with a view of widening the carrying charges. Weakness of corn and lower hog prices influenced the market ln a degree. At the close September pork was 2HQ5c lower at $3.40. September lard 5c lower at $3.17 and September ribs 2i5o lower at $4.87.
