Iffr rf r?l COMMERCIAL MD It was tocuearly la taewelc.aad-too laie-'ln the month for a very large volume of business yesterday, but the commission-house portion of Front street-had plenty of nprk. Receipts of fruit and produce fcy both steamer and train were very heavy, among other truck being three carloads of cantaloupes and watermel ons, a carload of" bananas and a. lot of assortod fruit. Bananas were of- the Port Llmon va riety, and arrived In excellent order, and found a ready sale, although they are not usually re ceived In carload lota In -the Summer time. The butter and egg market Is ft little out of sorts, both being weaker 'on a light demand and fairly large receipts for the hot season. Grain markets are dull, and there Is nothing new In groceries.

Sugar and Broolclyn Transit Leaders In Activity. NEW ,1'ORK, July 30 The stock market continued very dull and professional today, but the field of activity broadened out some what fo as to include more stocks than in the dealings during the latter part of last week. The added life to the trading Was on the selling side, and Inroads were Tnade upon values: at points that have hold remarkably firm cp tc the present time. Sugar and Brooklyn Transit were1 the leaders In point of activity and weakness, but a number of other specialties came forward into a fair degree of prominence It was still a market of spe cialties, and railways were relatively In tho background But there was some addition to the attention "paid to them also. Dealings were not widely distributed in the railroad list, the pressure against a few active stocks In that division apparently not affecting the firm "undertone of the railroad department as a whole. The grangers were most affected, and Burl ington waa-ttoe leader of the depression, with a fall of 1 "find practically no recovery. St. Paul, foil a point, and the decrease in net taming for June of $155,004, compared with the correspjandlng period of last 3 ear, was the effective cause of. heaviness in that stock and In the-group- Pennsylvania was-a point of weakness In sympathy wltb London"; and was told 4&wn"f".;22r ,6ndqn came, weaker -on 'ac WNANCIAL "NKSS.1 count of the assassination cf King Humbert. The depression In Bugar was In evidence at the outset, and apparently due to ahltung, pro fessional attitude of the traders. There were reports of a pending strike, which was denied by representatives of ihe company, and re ports of approaching competition by unrefined sugars. Invited, by the present high level -of prices. r Tobacco wis affected ty "'profit-taking.' at tracted by the recent considerable rise. Brook lyn Transit "was under reneweu pressure, and fell back to near last week's low price, carry ing the old local traction stocks with It. The Steel group dropped under the "unsatisfactory" outcome of the Chicago conference, designed to restrict production. Tennessee Coal was active and 9 eak, falling an extreme 3 points. The stock rallied a -point. Besides these points of weakness In special stocks, spec ulative sentiment disturbed by the uncertainty regarding the money outlook, the growing likelihood of 'considerable decrease of net earnings of railroads, and awakened appre hension regarding the crops, American ex change fell a fraction further today, raising a doubt whether gold is likely to go ontthlS week. The tone of the money market remains un changed, and the opinions regarding the fu ture events there are a good deal mixed. The bond market was dull and prices were inclined to go lower. United rStates bonds were unchanged at the last call on the ex change. BONDS. V. S. 2s. ref. reg 104, do coupon ......104h do 2s. rrg 100 1 Gen. Electric CI...H5S X X. Cent.

Thougrh selling; pres sure was not particularly heavy. It was sufficient to send prices to a point kc below Saturday's closing figures In the four and one-half hours trading. But hero the decline stopped.

Then the market De came strong. Some buying orders came in during tho morning from the, seaboard, They were accompanied by reports of un Improvement In the export demand, and theso. reports later became the predom inating influence of trading. Reports as to the total engagement were conflicting, the figures running from 21 to 00 loads, the report creating & mild sensation among traders and causing the Siarket to close at best figures for tho ay.

W!ySHINGTON, July 26. Chairman Bab coclc, of the Republican Congressional Committee, has given out a note of warn ing, "j;hat he'fears it will be almost im-possjble- tp. carry the nxt House, .even If the Republicans' elected their President. Whllp Mr. Babcock makes his statement quite plain. and.Vhows how It could be done, l is quite wdoubtful If what he pre dicts, will como ,tp pass. For Instance, mcn,iike Daly of .New Jersey, who Is a Democratic member, of the House, and. who was on tho committee on resolutions at the Kansas City. Convention, declared emphatically after 115 .to 1 had. been in corporated Into the platform, that It would mean the defeat of nearly every Democratic member 4n New Yorkj New Jersey. Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. Outside of the qolld Tammany districts In New' Tork CltyT -he did .not consider it possible- for 'the Democrats to be elected; and lie was1 als5 of the opinion that Very fer orfthe present Democratic membership from the states named would accept a renomlnation which would mean defeat. It is, of course, a question whether the Republicans can hold what they bavo In the West. This they will no dpnbt be. able to do. In tho Mis sissippi Valley they may lose a Congress man here and there", possibly some In the Ghicago districts, while there is also dan ger, of losses In Indiana, and scattering - - Representatives in Ohio and West Tlr ginta Bu, whatever losses occur in the Middle Wesjt ought to be easily made up In tho Eastern States on a platform of 36 to 1. It is stated, though, that a f great many Democrats who are opposed to the present expansion policy of tha Republican party will vote for McKlnley on tho-Tnoney question, but will voto "for Democratic members oh the lmperinl- Msm 'Issue. In Maryland It Is expected that thetDemocrats will gain some Con gressional votes, although there is a very good possibility of the state being carried for McKlnley. Of course, the members of Congress,' and especally those men who have the patronage ot stake in the House, tho chairmanships of committees, and all that goes with it, aro intensely anxious to have the Republicans 'remain In control of the House. But it is not beyond tho possibil ity that a great many people and good Republicans also would be willing to see the Hous6 under Democratic cbntrol. for the reason that they would like to make 4w, ri,rt.fi. -, t.,.iKin tr. f tain extent in solving problems that wiir .. . . -, . -,,.,, njw ihtt nrpB. certainly Would be thing to see how a Democratic, House would take up the question of- the disposition, of Cuba, and Lwhather It .would have the audacity to carry out the professed intentions of the Iemocratic, platforms and speakers In L making Cuba absolutely Independent, and withdrawing air- united States control from the island. As to the Philippines, no one could s"ny how the Democratic House would move. Unquestionably, un der present conditions the control of tho Philippines is vested in Congress, and It might not, be very .bad Republican poll tics. If -the House should turn up Demo- oratic to allow that party to inaugurate measures, dealing with the Islands There Is no doubt that one reason why Chairman Babcock issued his- manifesto was toalarm the. Republicans everywhere and. to stimulate , them to better efforts in the campaign- that is to come. It la a fact that the Republicans feared an apathetic campaign, and are doing every thing they can to stimulate interest, not only Jft the Presidential, but In the' Con gressional election; -and. Chairman Bab cock's manifesto was no doubt dlroctcd toward those men who are not taking the -active Interest In that campaign which he thinks should be manifested If the Republicans arc to retain control of the riHouse.
