New York. July 2. (U. P.) Except for a sharp break in St. Paul based partly upon "dividend rumors,", which attach themselves alternately to most railway and industrial companies now adays, and partly on an unfavorable statement of the company's May earn ingsthe stock market-was as mean ingless today as - yesterday. As a rule prices recovered about as much as they declined yesterday, but in the main the changes were unim portant. Liondon continued to sell moderately,: as was witnessed by the number of bond sales. The cotton rop estimate of yester day was reflected in Europe's cotton markets by a bharp decline' in prices; but in our own by a prompt recovery. This showed a somewhat interesting difference in the point of ; view. - The wheat market is in a hardly less 'per plexed condition. On one side stand undoubted injury to winter wheat the scope extremely uncertain) and slarns of renewed t foreign buying; on the other, the belief that, despite this dam age from - unfavorable weather, . the government" forecast for the total wheat yield next Thursday will - be higher, thant that of a month ago.
