NiiW YORK. July 8.?The stock that
was the feature of tho market to-day
. was, with a slngle exception, the one
j capable of exerflng the greatest In
' llucnce on sentinient of any stock on
tho entlro list. Itf.au Unlted States
?Steel. preferred, nnd the onjy stock thnt
could fLtltmila'.e pentlment to a grc-atev
degree was Unitid States Steel, cdm
! mon. The latter v.as strong, too, but
frolntlvely not qulto as strong- as the
former. "Not yet, but soon," the bull's
sald whon thelr attention was drawn
ito thls fact, and brokers wlth falrly
j good memorlos sald that if the predlc
j tion made good It would not mark
any departure from precedent, as the
common stock has generally caugiu
! up whenever a movement In the pro
' ferred undtily increased the width of
j the prico margin betv.oen the two.
Brokers v/ho had selllng orders ln
Steel. preferred. found thelr task easy.
Those who tried to buy had a dlfferent
story to tell. Thero was little stock
in the Street, and none ln Loi.don.
! Steel. preferred. has gone into the
i hands of investors. the average amount
held ln a slngle name being only about
D." sharcs. and the investor shows lit?
tle incltniitlon to sell a safe 7 per
penti stock at 107 or 10S in a 3 1-2 per
! cerit. money market.
Thore was a rumor that this issue
] wpuld be retired. but the general be
j li'_f was that nothing of "the kind wes
Intended, and that the only'cxplanathn
j of the rlse was to be found in a ratb.t
' belated recognition by investors of t;a
| investment merits of the stock. To
! these ?merfts, It was stated, some prom
inept Interests had recently dlrected
the attention of thelr friends.
James J. Hill was said to-have mace
thc remark 300.1 after tlie consummn
tion of the deal between the Steel Cor?
poratlon and the Great Northern Rail?
way,' involvlng the latter's ore ianrir,
tliat Steel common was then worth
.100 a share. When asked why, If lt
was worth that prlce, it sold in tho
market at less thnn half the flgure
named. he Is sald to have replled:
"That is what it Is worth?or it may
be worth moro?and I suppose the rea
son why It pells for so much less I.
that the publlc do not appreeiate the
value of lt. 1 do not know when they
will begln to reallzc what a good thins
lt Is, but they probably will sooner oc
later."
It is now nearly two years since
Mr. Hill. according to reports cur
rcnt at the time. made the statement
that steel common was worth par.
and there nre many ln the Street. who
suspect that he is now marking hls
appreciatlon of the stcck ln a more
-..ubstantlal way than by talklng about
It Some recent buying is sald to have
'looked" as lf it might havo come from
l hlm, and thls has revived the rumor

On Monday a tlp on Illlnols Gentral
1 was passed around among the follow
i ers of a parttcular .member ?. tlie
I Standard Oil party supposed to have
I been actlve on the bull slde of the
j market at various tlmes within the
past few months. It made good to
some extont on that day and to a
! greater extent to-day. In fact, the
enso with whlch the stock rose to-day
' ai-oused more Interest ln thls stock
j around the commlsslon houses thap
I had before been manifest6d in lt in
many months, and expectatlons were
entertalned that thls security might
again bocome whnt it ceased years
ago to be?an actlve trading issue llko
the Hill stocks, Baltlmoro and Ohlo,
Now York Central, Atchlson nnd
Southern Paclfic, all of which aro
ronked in tho second class of activlty,
It was f>tat6d that nll the stock
offered to stockholders sometirne ago
was subscrlbed for, as might well bo
oxpacted ln vlew of the fact tlVv.t tho
rights were at all tlmes of substantlal
valuo?:and that many of tho subscrlb

Instead. Qf taking advantage of tho
torms under whfch tho prlce could be
paid In installmentn. The statement
of earnlngs for May was publlshed
in the fore part of the day, but made
no partlcular impresslon.
According to elose observerg of the
operatlons in Illlnols Central, the sup?
ply of tho stock for sale was small.
Thls was also thc testimony of some
of the buyer.. It was sald that the
holdlngs of Stuyvesant Klsh, whlch
had come upon the market had all
been absorbed and that the floatlng
supply had passed into strong hands.
One rumor s?ld it was thc Intention
of the Inslders to advance the price
to tho level at whlch the railroad se
surltles company had years ago ac
(iiilred its interest In the stock, and
tlie not illoglcal argument was ad
vanced that the constructlon of^ the
Panama Canal opened up great "poij
sibillties for the greatest North and
j South road on the Amerlcan conti
I nent,
...
The Hill railroad stocks reflected the
| hlghly favorable condition of sprlng
? wheat reported in the government crop,
| report. and the Great Northern
iore certificates advanced |n sym
ipathy wlth the steel Issues, as a
j result of thti better outlook for
jthe fron and steel trades, iho supposl
, tion being that'the Steel corporation.
whlch. has been taking out llttlo oro

into in October, 1606, would eoon begln

acciuired from the Hill interests.

Jels of wheat. a,725.000,000 busheis of

,'lt was felt that the farriier was (n no
,. Immediate danger of a diminutlon of

ling that the flgures meant a fair
! measurc of prosperity for the whole
I community, and that even the poor

[reason to complaln ln the past two or

for June aro, of course," not yet ready
