INDUSTRIAL CENTERS,

NEW YORK LETTEK. New York, June 26. The stock market started off this morning as if the advance agent of prosperity had already arrived and pitched his tent in the center of Wall street. Stocks showed gains varying from one to three points during the first hour of the session. The principal active ones which showed the greatest strength were St. Paul which advanced from 128 to 129 !4; Union Pacific from 136 to 137 H; Great Northern and Northern Pacific two points respectively and the balance of tho usual speculative favorites about one point. There was nothing new in the general situation to cause the early advance. It was more of a sentimental bulge than anything else. Some shrewd traders had figured it out that the market was due for a fair unturn and as a consequence they bought stocks. Along about the noon hour when everything looked the rosiest, some one disgorged a bunch of long stock which the lata lamented bulls could not assimilate very readily. This took all the bullish enthusiasm out of the market and caused a drop in prices throughout the list. At the close tonight, the market shows very little change from yesterday although the market enjoyed a wider range of fluctuations and a larger business than usual. The bearish features which caused the selling movement in the latter part of the session was the report that the bank statement this week could not be anything but a bad one. It is said the loan Item would show a large increase if the present upward tendency in the market continued while the reserve and deposits should decrease on account of losses to the sub-treasury already known. The Atchison report for May was made public today made a did showing. It shows a gain per cent in gross and 14 per cent which ID in net. The Atchison common shares hold remarkably well regardless of the weakness in the general list. The market generally closed erratic at about yesterday's prices. KEA YORK STOCK MARKET Descp.

publi cseem to prefer to wait until they can get better line on the crop conditlons before committing themselves too i extensively. J The chief bullish influences were the ! unseasonable weather in the extreme northwest; French and German cables i indicate less favorable outlook for their crops a stronger tone to the foreign markets and light receipts of wheat at all the primary markets in this country. Some fairly well posted traders are expressing the opinion that the government figures will show a better condition upon the tenth of July than the trade generally expect. Despite the bad crop reports which been in circulation during the last week, it is said the government figures will indicate a yield of possibly 650,000,000 for both spring and winter wheat compared with 600,000,000 by the best posted crop experts. The market closed a shade stronger than yesterday. CORN A rather narrow market with early prices slightly higher, later easing oft and closing with very little change compared with yesterday. It seems a difficult proposition to bull the com market in view of the tine weather throughout th.e corn belt. Reports are unanimously favorable in regard to crop conditions. There was a little selling noted in the speculative market by cash houses. This is presumably against country purchases. The receipts at this market have begun to decrease materially while the cash demand shows a somewhat improved condition. The market closed steady. OATS Dull and featureless. Trade almost wnolly professional. The tenor of the crop news was contradictory to say the least. Some sections reported damage while others stated the crop was in excellent condition. The difference between July and September options is now five und onehalf cents. These two futures should work closer together within the next fortnight. Three cents spread would be more normal and legitimate. The market closed quiet but firm. GRAIN MjQ PHOViSION MARKET

Wo therefore believe stocks at this level are cheap and should be bought, especially by people who can afford to pay for them, and the trader will find it advantageous to scalp the market by buying on any reaction from this level. We do not expect to see the market show weakness today, as there is nothing in the forecast or news items to cause more serious concern than has been felt for two weeks past, a period during which the market has hardened and become thoroughly liquidated, to judge by its action during the last hour yesterday. Our commercial conditions are good and there is no reason why railroad securities, especially the good stand ard dividend payers should not enhance in value, as at present they bring a very big return to the investor, and money which is idle in savings banks and trust companies at 3 to 4 per cent will find its way into the channels of just such investments as above men tioned. There was considerable more actlv ity today, in fact it was a surprise to a good many people, after stagnation for the past two months. The buying was started by good people yes terday In anticipation of a better mar ket abroad, and with the somewhat improved financial condition in Europe American stocks are bound to be in favor again In the near future. Interest and dividend disbursements approximating $183,000,000 will be made July 1st by American railway financial and industrial corporations This is 10 per cent, over last year, which was also a record. It does not now appear that the local money market will have more than temporary disturbance growing out of preparations for these disbursements, and even the exports of gold have up to this time been accomplished without severe strain on the money market. It is just possible that first of July settlements this year have been made the cause of conservative stock market eperations in the London, Paris and Berlin, as well as American, and some early apprehension concerning the French settlement at that time, largely the cause of weakness In foreign mar kets, which was perhaps added to by the Egyptian failure, it now appears that sentiment in Europe has improved, and it is quite possible the relief afforded by American shipments of gold have contributed largely to this result. In any event, it is true that high grade securities recovered all or more of their recent loss yesterday, led by French rentes and consols. There appears to be no longer apprehension concerning the result either of the London fortnightly settlement, which begins today, or serious concern over the Paris settlement at the end of the week.
