'The opening of the expoIton nn
ay had a most mwrtant bearing upon
the trade situation Inst week. A great
runny retail merchantA took ndvantagc of
the opportunity afforded by low rates to
visit the city at that time and In adilltlonme
to seang the exposition called Upifl their
frIends in the jobbing aIstrtct. Every joblla
bing house was thrqnged with visitors and
they nil bought with surprising freedom ,
showing that the , dtuatlon In the country
hs certainly most encouraging. No one dee
pnrtment of trade atipeared to enjoy a
monopoly of thu busine. hut nit came In
. - for their * hnre , staple and fancy goods of
nil kItid being in demand. There irubabiy
has neter becn a time in the hiMory of the
city when so many country merchants vls-
iteti the jobbing district In the space of
two thy and left orders for such a large
amount of merchandise.
The retail merchants nio had the same
experience as the jobbers. A great many
e.fosition : visitorm remained over a daiy or
two on purpose to do a certain amount of
5hOpiflg nnd every retail estallishment In
the city was crowded. As a whole it was
one of the best weeks experienced by the
Iccal trade In a great while.
( rueery Market .tctive.
The market for wholesale groceries con-
' .c tinues tO tie very active. The volume of
buncis % tranmnvted from week to week
Varies little , but stilt the jobbers report
they have about all the trade they can
Imanilie.
l'rlces have tCCfl ) steadier for the Inst
six ( lays than for m.omo time Iast. A few
lines. toweVr , continue to go Up time Scale
of values , while others are sinking. Among
; tbii'o that are being ( tuoteti higher , both
- - sisal and manila rope ought he mentioned
Pxeent prices show a rise of 1c over the
schedule of a week ago nnd there Is every
indication for a still higher market. As
: present quotatton are higher than they
have been for several years past , an Interesting -
' - - esting market may be expected In the ( U.
h----- ture. As yjg lirvtIiCteI last week , fruit
jars have advanced $1 per gross. Canned
tomatoes , corn nnd Caiit'ornia peaches are
also flrmer than a week ago Farinaceoum
geods , however , on account of the lecline
In wheat and aLLIS , are easier. The decline I
on flour for last week nmounts to $1.50 per
barrel zmml on rolled ont9 to about 25 centm
per barrel. Time sugar market remainm
practically steady. but Friday morning II .
opened a little firmer with indications fem
an advance In the near future. No changem
of any Importance are reported in other
, lines.
No variations as y have taken place Ia I
the' iuotmttlons on hardware. There is
however , ueh an active demand ( or nil
; kinds of seasonable goods that a continu. .
- since of present conditions is very apt tc
lring about some advances. Local ( lealerm
are more than pleased with the trade they
.
are having. Last week was an unusuali )
heavy week , owing to the ( act that th
usuni number of mall orders came In , wimIc I
made the orders received from vtsitor
ext-a.
The dry good3 trade is also reported am , .
being beyond ripronch. This Is timO menU 1
when there Is an enormous demand for sea
sonable gooth. and the fev warm days 01 ;
last week made them move in good shape
Laces , ribbons. veiling. hoskry and al
kinds of summer underwear are In Imarticu
lar demand. Dry goods merchants wh )
came to the opening of the expositlor
found quite n interesting a display In th
dry goods houses as they did on the ( au
grounds anti consequently jobbers thu
rustmtn business.
Orders for ( all goods are all in ( ran S
those intending to buy early and consequently -
quently the trade is confined to seasonabii t
goods and odds and ends.
Prices remain , firm , but no quotabl e
changes are rCorted.
-
Liberal Order , , for Slices.
Trade In boots and shoes continues ti
move along at a lively rate. Business ii i
the country Is good , whIch means that cut : u _
jobbers are busy. Merchants that come b m
town all give favorable reports from theE r
localities and place very liberal orders to r
stockS without any coaxing. They seem t
know what they are after and lose no tim
In getting it. The leather market continue S
to be iirm and there is no doubt but tha t
It vIil remain in that condition for sam
time to come. A rise In the price of shoe : ,
however. is hardly expeeted.
- The lumber trade remains practically ur I-
changed. Local retail business and C5 urt -
daIly the exposition branch of it continue is
to be very satisfactory. The last few da ) .5
before the opening there was a great rus tt
for lumber with which to put on the Ilnimil
ing touches and as a result the dealers haiii
a lively trade. which still contInues , as e t-
hibitors and concessionaires are aitli ic
anxious to complete their work at an earl ly
date. Business In the country continues I 10
be quiet. but not unusually so ( or this se It -
mien of the year. There Is every reason f r
thinking that trade wilt open up earili tr
thls. year and be heavier than for seven sl
seasons past and eonseiuently lumber me : r-
chants are well ; ) leased. The news of U me
location of Admiral Cervera had a stimi 1-
laming effect upon the yellow pine marke 1 ,
as mill owners fIgure that it means tt mete
Oening up of their foreign and coastwli to
trade , which has been practically destroy id
by the war. Cedar shingles are also cor ii.
aidered good ProPerty.
FrtIt and
Commission men report last week as b e-
ing very unsatisfactory to them owing bto
the fact that Wednesday was a hollela y ,
HolIdays are a geed thing , but they iii re
rather hard on dealers in perishable good 5 ,
I.- 130th flOw and clii potatoes are reported is
being In good ilemanil. especially old one 5.
which are selling at from SO to S5 cents p 5.er
bushel and the new ones at from L. pto
$ I.&o per bushel.
The tomatoes that are coming on tl ie
market now are the best seen this ya r.
Four basket crates are quoted at 2 and I
bushel boxes at $1.25. They are sellir ;
fairly well , but wilt doubtless be more po I-
ular this 'eek , as the receipts are expecti
to increase and consequently prices w
be more moderate.
VaX beans and Peas ito not seem to I b
reatly sellers and heavy losses wern su 5-
tamed in these lInes last week. Grace rs
(10 an immense amount of damage to U mis
market by refusing to pay reasonali le
prices as soon as there is a slight surpi US
of stock on hand.Vhen they force car n-
mission men to selt goods for less than th sy
are worth it stops shipments to this poi nO
anil in a few dayS up goes the price , on iy
to fall agaIn , In that way an uncerta in
and flfl unsafe market Is created. which is
U5t the kind shippers tear and try to
avoid.
A few cherries from Missouri commor ily
called sour cherries , are beginrmng to cot na
in and are quoted at $2.50 $ per twenty-fat Ir-
( luart case. Gooseberries are also comi rig
in good quantIties for this season of he
year and are selling at $ per twenty-fot ir-
quart vase. Lemons , as predicted , a re
going up and are mUoteei at 23.50. T he
s'arm weather makes them rapll sellc trs
nnd they arc next in popularity to stra s-
berries.
There is beginning to be a slight weake In.
Ing in the egg market. owing to thu ft let
that the old rate on shipments betwe
- ( 'lilcago and New York has been restorm ? P
This adds a cent on every dozen shipr
between these points.
There is practically only one kind of b U -
ter in the market at liresent. namely , ca .
iii.
try butter. The frequent ralims have m 40
+ a luxuriant growth of grass and they ha LC
also caused a rank growth of weeds. '
a result time quality of butter is not as gc 9
thin year as usual , or as butter men s _ ,
e it's weedy.
L I'ouitry is not in very good demand ji Umit

T he predominating factor in wheat at the
sta rt was the weather , and that was favor-
abl e for the earl > ' maturing of the crop.
I.ir erpool was 2td higher for July and d I
UI ) for September. I3eerbohm cabled that
the weather in France was bad. These I
lat ter items of information received no conIt
shl eratlon from local speculators. The sunin
shi ne and clear ky that could be seen from
the Board of Trade windows had too
po tent an effect to permit of other in.
Ilu ences at that time. There were bug
sto ries from } Canaas of a most harrowing
de scriptton and reports from liuda I'est
of rust In wheat. In about forty minutes
aft er the opening September which closed I
Ie sterday at I4i1O0-3e , had sold down to
,9 i4j79 : 3-Sc. There was a rather nervous
fee ling in July , however. Shorts were in- ,
di ned to cover and there was some demand
fo r Joily. At the close nearly all attempted
to liquidate and the strength which had
ru led early in July was lost. Near the
clo se the bearish feeling gathered in In- I
te nstty in September and that month sufan
( c reel a still further decline. Chicago reca
ce ilitS Were 35 cars and 70.0' ) ) bushels were
in spected out of store. Minneapolis and
D uluth received 15 ears. against 310 a year
ag o. The seaboard clearances of wheat
an d flour for the day were equal to 32G ) I
bu shels. July opened cent lower at .
94c , sold UI ) to 9Rc , down to 93tc , up to
91' 4e. fell off to SIc and firmed up to 92c ,
at the close. September began 3-Sfi-.e
lo wer at 9 0-S1JSOmc , sold down to TIe , ral- p
lie d to 79 5-Se declined to 7S4c and rose to
7 $ 0-SfJ7Sc , the closing tigure. I
An easier feeling was expressed in corn I
inab early cables. large covering and favorI

Str ength ot Anmriens London
Stops fleelirm. on 1imis Side ,
N EP. ' YORK , June & -The't4 wa no trace
lef t today of the renctIonarytendency manliIm
ife st in the stock market late yesterday ,
Th e change might be seeourted for in two
wa ys. First , the adoptk1nmb' the senate of
the section of the rerenuetbill authorizing
an issue of bonds and treasury certificates ;
sec end , the professtonal speculators who
sol d stocks and took their vroflts early In
the week and were anxious to get back at
low prices. The second explanation is more
lik e ! > ' to be true. It was evident before
the opening of the market today that it
o uld be diflicult to effwct any further deAiT
di ne in prIces. as London had advanced
Am ericans a large fraction all round. tonAn
do n made much of the action of the senate
in adopting the bonding Itrovision nail was
als o influenced by the persistent rumors
fro m l'aris , and even from Madrid , that
Sp ain was seeking ft way to peace. Paris
bo ught Spanish 4s heavily on this rumor
an d effected a sharp advance In the price.
It is probable that the buying of Americans
inrc London was in part on cabled advices
( rc m New York b > purchasers too eager to
ma it for the opening here. No account was
ta ken of the reported sinking of an Amer-
lea n collier In the mouth of Santiago barr -
ba r , as it was accelited as a measure for
blo ckading the harbor. The rumor of the
de struction of the Spanish fleet hail more I
ett ect and prices advanced buoyantly all
th rough the list. When the bank statement
fir st appeared there was some pressure to
se ll by traders who make it a rule to ni-
wa ys sell stocks when the banks' surplus
re serves show a ( lecrease. Hut a better an-
al ysils of the return soon led to renewed
bu ying. The use of money reflected In the
lo an expansion Is a healthful feature of the
bu siness outlook. The closing was active
an d strong near top prices , net gains in the
ca se of most active stocks ranging between
141 2 points , and in exceptional cases above
th at. The announcement of the decision on
th e Rock Island dividend on Tuesday' had
th e effect of making this realizing Parttctt-
ta r ! > ' marked In Rock Island and Its group
of allied stocks. The newly awakened outSt.
si de demand was sufllclent to absorb these
rca lizlng offerings anti to broaden the spec-
ul ative Interest and bring Into action nearly
th e whole of the list. The taking ot liroilts
de veloped a bear party which was anxious
fo r lower imrtce in order to buy stocks
ag ain. It worked for a reaction until it
su cceeded in achieving it on Friila > ' . but
it : bought stocks today again under the con-
vi ctton of the general strength In the gen-
er al outlook. Attntton is attracted by the
go vernment' ! statement of the amount of
m oney in circulation in the country on June
1. whleh is stated at $ i.S3jJl.256 , exclusive
of time holdings of the United States treas- ,
u ry. This is a circulation per capita of
$2 1.73. The increase in the circulation iii
M ay alone was $33,116&Ii , of which $32,525,371
w as of gold. For the year the circulating i :
m edium was expanded SlSO.l64,36l. and of
th is $129,349,153 is of gold. The country's net
go ld imports of nearly 1100.000.000 In liquida- :
ti on of the trade balances appear in the
ci rculation. But that this amount of net :
im ports of gold conies anywhere near effect- .
in g a final settlement of the trade balances 1
o f the year is not conceIvable. The trade I

Receipts today were 125 cars , as agaltisi
i 18 3 yesterday , 190 a week ago , and 115 twa
w eeks ago. It was a entail run even for
t he last day of the week. There was , how'
o ver , a fair showing of cattle , but the fuel ,
t hat there were rio sheep and less than tht I
a verage run of hogs accounted for the fall. .
la g off itt arrivals. it was a. dark , rain > .
d ay , the fall of rain in the morning beint ;
v ery heavy , so that It was late before any. .
o ne really got down to business , and the t
m arket was slow and late all day.
CATTLE-There were no cattle to speal' :
o f at the other large market points. but
m est everyone Vas looking for a large run 1
e arl > ' th'e coming week. 'rhe' market as ti I
w hole was dull and uninteresting.
Time most of the cattle on sale were hcav3 r
w esterns and they were as slow as usual
b uyers not caring apparently whether 01101
b ought them or not. Shippers took sono I
w hich helped to clear the yards. Prlce
w ere not much changed from yesterday
c ertainl > ' no higher.
Sttllers who score fortunate enough to hay C
h andy little cattle found no diiftculty in dis -
p osing of their holdines at strong price S
a nd It was not long until everything of tha I
d escription was cleared train the yards.
The few loads of butchers' stock sold a 0
a bout the same prices as were paid yester .
d ay and the same thing might be said 0 f
w hat few stockers and feeders were In th 0
y ards.
'fhere has been a good deal of samenes S
i n the cattle trade this week , the condition :
f rom day to day showing little change
T here has been a good demand for hand : C'
l ittle native cattle all the week , and the C'
h avu sold well every iay , and at satisfac
t ar > ' prices. Still there was toward th S
l ast a Ilttlu easier tendency to the marke t

Net" ' 'ork Iry Goods Market ,
NEW YORI June 4.-The week has
s hewn a gradual gain in the market for dry
g oods. There has been added strength In
p rint cloths and this has a beneficial effect
o n the staple cotton market , particularly
i n the better prices which are quoted all
a round. Export goods. on the other hand ,
a re attracting less interest than formerly
a ntI the week's sales have been light. Other
s taple Cottons showed unchanged results.
I lieachetl gOOils are clUtet and without tea-
t ure. Sellers have succeeded in removing
t heir heavy stocks of these goods to some
degree. but there Is still heavy supplies
hanging over the market. The sales of
print cloths during the last week have rig-
grt'gated enough to counterbalance the cur-
t ailed vroduction. The quotation on extras
i s still 2 cents , but sellers are very firm
and refuse bids for all futures and man/
spots at this figure.
