The extremely active and very Irregular course of trading on the Stock Exchange today was almost wholly traceable to Impending developments at Washington and the extension of labor troubles. 1 Money conditions were again, distinctly encouraging in the sense that call loans were freely obtainable at moderate rates, while time funds were more plentiful, mainly from in terior sources.

Prices of active stocks, seasoned as well as speculative issues, were 1 to 6 points higher at the excited opening. Those advances in several noteworthy instancel being con siderably extended during the first nour. Rails and a few of the high priced specialties, suon as tooaccos, proved the only conspicuous exceptions to rally, wnich gave way, however, to another extensive selling ovement at midday. or the balance of the session the record was one of almost steady betterment, favorites among indus trials, notably United States Steel, reflecting accumulation of a substan tial character. Short covering con tributed In no small degree to the markets stability, with numerous gains of 2 to 10 points.

Sales amounted to 2,050,000 This is the fourth time this year that transactions have approximaed he two million share mark. On the previous occasions, however, each enormous turnover accompanied ris ing market values. The more confident tone reflected by the stock market did not extend to foreign exchange, rates for the most part continued to move against London and continental Europe with fracs almost at yesterday's low record. Bonds were weak at the outset, speculative issues losing 1 to 2 1 2 points, with partial recoveries later. Total sales, par value, aggregated Old U.

Filbert, a Beading Railway brake man, residing at Robesonia, met with a serious accident at Conshohocken and is now at the Bryn Mawr Hospital with a compound fracture of one of his legs.

The accident was caused by the blowing out of a cylinder head of engine 1718 while enroute to Harrisburg. The unfortunate man was picked up and hurried to the hospital four miles away. He is 26 years of age and single. He belonged to a Harrisburg crew. The Reading Company received another MaDet locomotive.

The number is 1827, and, on the first trip from Philadelphia, hauled a train of 80 cars. Hieater Hunter, formerly of this city' and for many years a passenger engineer on the Reading division, now master mechanic at Erie avenue, Philadelphia, will soon reach his fiftieth year with the Reading. He entered the office of G. A. Nlcolls, at Seventh and Chestnut streets, in October, 1S69.

W. F. Hagar Company, Philadelphia, advise they will have the steamship Kalsho Maru, which will load general cargo at Philadelphia early In September for Bordeaux, France. Engine trouble on the lbanon Valley delayed the Queen of the Valley about an hour. It wag necessary to provide another locomotive on the arival of the train In this city.

It is claimed that the reason why there are so many shoo cars on the Readme system Is due to the difficulty in obtaining the necessary material to make repairs. The Reading Coal and Iron Company Is now storing large quantities of buckwheat and rice coal at the Landlngvllle storaere yard. None of the domestic sizes of anthracite Is being stored. These sizes are heins taken aa ranldlv as they 'can be placed on the markte. rne Beading Railway company is about fin thing the new roundhouse at Gordon, on the Mahanoy division.
