RAILWAYS SHOW
; MORE EARNINGS
NEW YORK, June B.— There was
-some ' speculative .hesitation re
flected in the action . of today's,
stock market, ? partly due to -the
rapidity of the advance of the day
before and partly to the conflict
of opinion over the situation .cre
ated by the railroad rate.settle
ment.
The contrary views expressed
by railroad executives. themselves
were responsible for the conflict of
opinion, especially the announce
ment by President Brown o j the
New York Central that work call
ing- for $5,000,000* expenditure and
orders for freightcars, which had
been held up as a' result of the
rate Injunction, would be resumed,
in contrast with the assertion of
President Ripley of the Atchison
that his company would not de
part in any degree from the pol
icy of retrenchment decided on
after the action of the govern
ment against the rate advances.
London joined- in a substantial
way in the early selling' brought'
about by these conditions!
The heavy selling of St. Paul
and the discouraged feeling ex
pressed in a published interview
with a capitalist prominent in that
party were corroborative of the
conviction that divergence of
opinion existed among, prominent
groups in the financial world.
Much attention was given to the
question of railroad; earnings as
they would be affected by^ the
postponement of rate, advances
until approved by the commerce
commission and the probable
period of that postponement. That
the advances would ultimately be
come effective was the 'usual as
sumption.
Railroad earnings for March are
the latest for which comprehen
sive returns have been received
by the commerce commission from
98 per cent of. the total mileage
of the countrj'. The Increase in
gross earnings in that month over
March of last year was shown to
be $31,555,500, or 15.54 per cent,
and in net $8,000,000, or 11.62 per
cent. • Last year's earnings for
March had registered the.shrink
age of about $34,000,000 in gross
earnings, and $10,000,000 in net
earnings.
The May statistics of the Copper
Producers* association offered lit
tle ground for encouragement, the
month's production having been
the largest, with the exception of
October of .last year, for any
month since the association- was
formed, deliveries meantime hav
ing remained stable at about the
level of the last three months with
the result of another addition of
18,441,814 pounds to the surplus
gtocks of the metal. The total
surplus, which is thus brought up
to 160,426,973 pounds, nevertheless
represents only about six weeks'
consumptive requirements at the
present rate of demand.
Quotations for copper were
lower, both in London and New
York. An" increase of pig iron,
stocks, in May, In spite of cur
tailed Induced a pre
diction by the Iron Age that the
blowing out of furnaces had not
gone far enough.
A favorable view was taken of
the government crop reports.
Money was easier, but foreign ex
change recovered in response to
selling of stocks for London ac
*count, and in spite of predictions
of a reduction in the Bank of Eng
land discount rate tomorrow. •
Bonds were firm; total sales, par
value, $2,061,000. ...

Boston Copper Stocks
BOSTON, June S. — The ; Boston market .opened
quiet, with the ton« rather uncertain. • A some
what reactionary tendency has .- developed after
the rally of yesterday, largely In sympathy
with the movements in New York. | The copper
producers' report showing a surplus of < some
thing like 15,000,000 pounds has been received
so far In a negative way. Other departments
of the market continue quiet and featureless.
The fact that these stocks • are 1 1 thoroughly
liquidated and oversold prevents prices from de
clining further on the producers' report. •>

CHICAGO BOARD OP TRADE
Future Grain and Provisions
CHICAGO,- June B.— Active spreading between
July and September options received more atten
tion today in the wheat. trade. Selling the later
delivery while .buying the earlier, was the favor
ite ; form of speculation. I Leading In the 1 move
ment was a • prominent elevator, concern which
haß Issued a ' bullish circular after * having been
rather conspicuous on the bear side. - The close
was nrm,.with July %@%c net higher and. the
other months a shade -up to %c- -•-- : "
A Corn finished at an advance of %c to %c. and
oats, showed a. decline of a shade to lie. Final
figures :in • provisions were 10c to 27% c above
last . night's level. •
•As the ; government crop /report was not due
until after the end of the. session, a disposition
to (indulge iln scalping . as a temporary occupa
tion seemed natural •; with a large number of
operators In wheat. Toward the end of the day
most of 'the guessers inclined" to, the idea of a
moderately bullish , document from Washington.
Following the advance,; profit taking on the part
of dealers who bad bought during the first hours
led Vto a ".sharp { break In September, but tl\e
effect- was partlr. overcome .by : transactions be
fore the • expiration , of the last 15 , minutes. It
was asserted, that .the' southwest was receiving
too: much rain for. this season of the year. Sep

welshing around 1.400 pounds, brought $235.
$235 . and $235. • A conple of teams of question
able soundness sold . close : to $400. . The balance
