Dull Stock Exchange Day Marred by Firecrackers and Torpedoes
A near holiday mood gripped the Stock Exchange as a few brokers, led by Charles Knoblauch, exploded torpedoes and firecrackers delaying trades. The day saw the smallest total since May 1890 and a suspension of floor rules on the Consolidated and curb markets. Trading was nearly at a standstill with paltry volumes and sparse client turnout.

New Haven Road Loses Mandate on Dividend Guarantee
In New Haven on July 3 the Superior Court ordered the New York New Haven Hartford Railroad to indorse a guarantee to pay 4 percent per annum on preferred shares of the New England Investment and Security Company. The decree advances the case toward the Massachusetts dispute being taken to the Supreme Court of Errors. The court ruled the railroad’s denial of obligation insufficient, directing immediate endorsement on the certificate and payment of accrued dividends if demanded, plus $19% per share with dividends if redeemed. Trustees must deliver the certificate with the endorsed guarantee.
