lions. It was expected that cre woiild no
considerable llciuidatlnn of May this week,
but It did not materialize early. I ri ih
were fairly llrm for a couple.. Imurs after
the Initial concession of about u Vi J",l"
,"W n in believe that the biff fol ' w
occasionally overshadow tho statist cs as
factors were- neither long nor short-J m
even. Hut about ltneo-deep In "
the stuff becan to eomo out and there w.is
selling by others In sympathy with the
Kk In corn. May had hesitated early.
I miking ut the ir,o mark, but tho llciuldatlon
carried the price through that . The ran -ket
was very weak at this time, but tno
selling paved tho way for tho reaction
which began during the nft-rnoon 1 1 o
shorts Boliera concluded n,- to remain in
that condition over night nn 1 bought bat l
some of their early sales ami turned what
looked like a bull rout.) nto a sort of re,,
treat In Rood order," as the dispatches hao
It. Tho cash business was slack nnd tho
export Inquiry discounting to holders.
New York had 19 loads for export. Atlantic
port clearances In wheat and 7our wero
equal to 4S2.00O bu. Primary receipts wcro
397.0HO bu., compared with 6U00O bu. last
year. -Minneapolis and Duluth reported U
cars, against 4 hist week nnd 503 a year
ngo. ltecelpts hero were 43 oars, none of
contract grade. Trade was dull in spots,
hut tho session furnished considerable ani
mation most of tho time. May opened at
(Ti'ia to fiofiW.dc. sold between OjUc und
fiV,o and closed -Tie under Saturday nt
f,4ViiVic: July opened at COlic to ftWiiW1,?,
ranged from WVHo to fifiifce nnd closed WOic
down nt fiflc. Much of tho trndo was dono
In changing May for July, not much dllll
ciilty toeing experienced In doing this nt a
difference of Hie.
Tho corn market wns active and lower.
Tho feature und tho factor was liquida
tion of May, ulthough lower cables and tho
Increase on pus.inge were In favor of tho
bear sldo. Tho opening was a trlllo lower
and nt the even Ileum there wero mnny
stoploss orders which wero executed In tho
pit. Shorts wero sellers, 'but toward the end
of tho session saw tit to cover and thus
caused a partial rally. Tho bulk of tho
business was In tho way of changing, lte
celpts hero were 301 cars. May ranged from
3Sio to 3740 and closed 3ac under Saturday
at 3"Tio; July, from 39c to 3Sac, closing
ViC down nt SMiCWic. The rally was helped
liv roported sale of DO boatloads.
'Provisions -were active and fluctuations
tho Krenter part of tho nesslon wero wide.
Hog receipts wcro liberal nnd prices nt tho
yards figured In tho opening loss. There
was a heavy selling pressure In evidence at
tho start, long stuff and short stun being
forced Into tho pit on stoploss orders. On
tho .break thero was good buying by pack
ers and a reaction took place, holding to
tho close, which wns llrm. May pork sold
from $12.60 to $12.23 and closed 27'ic under
Saturday at 12.43; July opened nt $12.52'.fi'
12.63, sold between $12.73 and $12.3714, closing
Wo down at $12.G2'4. May lard sold between
$f!.92l4 nnd Jfi.TG nnd closed unchanged at
$6.02i4; July between $7.02'4 nnd $ so, with
tho close unchanged nt $7.0214. May ribs
ranged from $0.70 to $fl.S and closed Cc lower
at $fi.S5; July, from Jtl.70 to $0.00, closing 6c
down nt $0.90.
Tho oats market held Its own In good
shape, dcsplto tho weakness displayed early
by corn. Thero wns little pressuro to sell,
tout on tho other hand thero was a decid
edly good demand from shorts and longs.
Tslny ranged from 22j to 225i22'5io nnd
closed a shndo, higher nt 22B6Ti 2274c; July,
from 22tMi'J2)ic, closing a shado higher at

NEW YORK, April 23. The cotton mar
ket was disturbed todny by conflicting nd-
vlces us to crop conditions lit general nnd
particularly ns to tho situation In the
flooded territories. The weakness of the
stock market was another element leading
to speculative hesitation. Our mat ket
started steady, with nrlees 3 nolnts lower to
3 higher ami for a time local traders had
tno mnrket to tliemselves. Reports of fur-
incr 'nenvy rains m me flooded regions of
tho central belt, with an unsatisfactory av
ernge of crop nccounts from other sections,
gavo relative firmness to' the new crop posi
tions. Tho fact that thero was some prcttv
brisk buying for southern nccount was
construed to bo a confirmation of reports of
damage by excessive rains. Following the
first call, therefore, tho market took a
level genernlly 2fi". points nhove Saturday's
closing. Rut public support failed to ma
terialize, and 11 new cnutlous sellintr move.
ment again set In. 'Prices receded under
tho pressure, yet tho market was nt no
time pnrtlculnrly weak, ns the forecasts re
garding tho 7novcment lu the nenr future
worked toward small llgures. This, with
tho steadily Increasing strength of statis
tics pointing to the smnllest visible supply
at the end of tho season for years, deprived
the shorts of courage and made the market
a small one. Tho market closed quiet, with
prices 4 points higher to 2 points lower.

NEW YORK, April 23,-S.iturdny's break
In prices of stocks brought large selling
orders Into tho market nnd they were In
evidence nil through tho list at tho open
ing. But thero was nlso buying orders
on a very largo sculo to tnko the offered
.stock. Part of these were evidently plnceil
In tho market by friends of different stocks
for the purposo of supporting them. The
expectation wns qulto general that the
market would open with something like a
crnah In values, but ns Is not unusunl In
Wall street, overexpcctutlon defeated Itself
nnd thero wrro enough buyers waiting to
tako advantage of the crash to steady
tho mnrket almost Immediately. Profes
sional Wall street perceived tho absence
of preFsuro of long stock In the steel In
dustrials with a cynical lack of surprise.
Evidently thi opportunity had been seized
to illrposo of long stock nt their level of
prices nnd tho shorts were tho most cnger
operators In tho market lu endeavors to
cover. This pretty clearly indicated that
p.iuso In tho mojt uggrcsslvo tactics of tho
bear campaign. A collateral object of
that campaign Is genernlly believed to
bo nn various stocks at tho lower level of
prices,
Tho pressuro of liquidation continued
heavy during tho first hour nnd a second
drive was made by tho board nt the end
of thnt time. But the stendy ubsorptlott
of offerings begot a very cautious- mood
among tho professlonnls nnd a dccldilly
quieter tone ensued In the market. Homo
of tho bull pools which have recently been
actlvo, notably that In Missouri Pacific,
showed a disposition to resttmo operations.
Tho undertnno of tho market was llrm dur
ing tho latter part of the day nnd tho
closing was strong nnd rather nctlve, with
tho steel Industrials nt tho best level of
tho day nt considerable net gains, amount
ing to 21 In tho enso of Fedornl Steel nnd
2(, In Steel and Wire. Wnll street ntlll
keens an anxious eyo on the situation In
tho iron and steel trade, but Is inclined
to co back of olllclnl uttcranco and con
firm Its opinion. The ularin llrst created
over tho cut In prices Is mitigated by tho
well llllcd ranks of tho consumers who
nro known to bo walling placo contracts
at a lower level of trices.
Last year's high prices arc known to
havo been made by belated bidders, who
had to buy uf nny price to nil contracts,
and the dealings nt tho hlch level wern
for only a smnll part of the total product.
Tho largo part of tho last year'rt business
wns on contracts which wero known to
havo been worked off at lower rates. While
tho reduction lu current rntcs hns proved
a severe shock to the financial world and
a dlsap.-olntment to heuders of tho stocks
of tho steel coir..flEJ- Wall street Is be
ginning to lndulgo in the hope that even
nt tho cut prices the year's nvcraso rato
ma:- still provo to bo nbove tho average
for last year. Gold exports nro looked
to without ulnrm on nccount of the cafo
of tho money market. Today's small ship
ment to Buenos Ayres wns without Influ
ence. Tho feature of tho bond market was tho
quick rlso to R5 of tho Western New

CATTLE This was nn off dny for the
rollers of cnttle. There was a steady fall of
rain nil tho morning, which made the cattlo
look unattractive and buyers feci mean, und
reportB from enstern markets wero unfa
vorable. Resides that buyers were gener
nlly looking for a good run for tomorrow.
1 nc result was mat. me mnrnei wns siuw
nnd 60 to 10c lower, the bulk of the cattle
selling probably 10c lower. If tho cattle
Just happened to suit buyers they would
not. tnke on quite so mucn, oui ns n ruie
they wanted to tnke off 10c. If the cattle
happened to bo heavy and a little on the
coarso order they were not only lower, but
slow at the decline. While the offerings
were moderate the market was In such con
dition thnt It took some time to effect a
cloarance.
Cows and heifers sold all the way trom
weak to 10c lower. As a rule, buyers llgiitcd
on taking off, but tho demand for that kind
of stock was pretty good, so that lu some
casts thev did not take off very much.
Still some of the buyers reported that they
were taking off 10c or leaving them alone.
The general trade on butchers' stock, ns
wns tno case wltli otner Kinds of cattle, was
slow nnd tho morning wns well advanced
colore a clearance wns onecteii.
Only a few stockers or feeders were on
snlo and tho market was very quiet, owing
largely to the state of tho weather. Thero
was somo trading, but the market was
without feature. Tho condition of the beef
market, ns well as the weather, was against
mere neing mucn ncuviiy in feeders, liep-

linns Thev seem to havo gotten tho hog
market on the down grade nnd when nnco
started down hill It Is sometimes hnrd work
to stop. Last week tho mnrket gradually
declined, prices being lower every day after
Tucsda!'. so that tho week chsed with
values 12'ic lower than tho high point.
Tho present week, however, started out
still lower. This morning 4'hlcago re
ported tho mnrkrt there as 10c lower nnd
under that Influence tho market hern whs
lower, Thla market, however, declined only
6c, owing to tho fact that the receipts
were light nnd the demand pretty good.
As thero wero so few on snip It did not
tako packers very long to effect a clear
ance nnd about everything was sold and
weighed up In good season. The general
run of mixed hogs sold nt JS 35U5.37't, with
somo of the better loads at J3.li. On Sat
urday the mixed loads generally sold at
J5.mtf5.l2V4.
It will be noted from the table of aver
age prices nbovo thnt the present week
starts out with the market close to 10c
lower than It was one week ngo. but still
a shade higher than two weeks ngo. Rep-
