DOES NOT AFFECT BUSINESS Machinist' Strike Hardly Central Entmgh t Intfrro.pt Trade. CONFIDENCE IN STEEL MANUFACTURES Immense Shipment of Foolnrnr from the East Textile Fabrics Exhibit Least Animation Winter Wheat Ontlnnk llrtter. NEW YORK. May 24. R, O. Dun & Co.'s Review of Trade tomorrow will say. The Inbor situation Is the cloud hovering over the business world, but the dlfllculttcs are not sufllclently widespread at present to seriously Interfere with the progress of manufacture and distribution. Some settle ments of stilkes have been effected during the week and others seem probable nt an early date. Meanwhile, prices held tlrm. the capacity of producing plants In the lending Industries Is well employed and crop ndvlccs are satlsfnctory. A feeling of confidence in the permnnetice of values npptnrs to hnve settled In nil divisions of the iron and steel manufactures. To this may be attributed the decrease In orders for dlstnnt delivery. purchnsers merely contracting for their requirements for one to two months In advance. Trim- 3iillllty regarding the future Is undoubtedly uc to the nctlon of the large combination which has made no etfort to secure exorbi tant prices, but manifests nn Intention to maintain quotations nt the current level. Independent producers show a disposition to work nlong the same lines nnd the net result Is less scrambling to get orders plnced, but not that the actual demand Is smaller. Notwithstanding much talk of dullness In pig Iron, llessenier Is llrmly held nt 116.75 delivered nt Pittsburg or 116 nt Val ley furnaces. Foundry Irons nre somewhat easier. All lines of flnlshc'd steel ore crowded to the limit of productive capacity and ma chinery houses at Chicago nro graining ma chinists' demands rather than risk delay. At some other points employers are more stubborn nnd there Is prospect of serious Interruption to business. Although slightly smnller thnn In the two S receding phcnomennl weeks, shipments of oots and shoes from the east were more than 10,000 cases nnd far In excess of tho snmo week in eurllcr years. Leather has been strong. Cheuper grades of upper leather are less uctlve, owing to the better demand for glazed kid nnd calfskin. Textile fnbrlcs still exhibit the lenst ani mation nnd conditions at Frill River cotton mills inn fur from encournglng, further re duction In time nnd possibly in wnges being under discussion. Woolen mills exhibit it llttlo more nctlvlty and nre buying of rnw mnterlnls. Correspondents report the winter wheat outlook steadily Improving, nnd there Is every reason to anticipate an abundant harvest. A few sections hnvu slightly re duced acreage, and losses by drouth In Texas may amount to nbout half tho orlg Innl area planted. The production In that state, however, Is never sufllclently henvy to be an important factor In the total for the whole country.

Day Comes ,cnr llelna Dullest Mni'r Not ember Election. NEW YORK, May 2I.-A final spurt of activity nnd strength In tho stock market was nil that saved the day from being the dullest in tho amount of business done since the November election. The Tobteco stocks, American and Continental were the features of the market. The volume of business In them grew ns the advance pro gressed, ami all of the room traders, hun gry for n stock that would move easily, tailed onto the movement. Uy bidding up prices smartly they ascertained that very tew selling orders for the stock were In the market above the prevailing price level, These technlcnl conditions were responsible for the movement of stocks so fnr ns nny news thnt wns published would Indicate, The dny's gain registered for American Tobacco wns s points nnd for Continental lobacco 44. The tliml strength of the mar ket wns duo to this movement and to the late accentuation of strength In other stocks which had shown signs of firmness and strength earlier In the day. The weak points were also pulled up, so thnt the losses, which were at one time very pen ernl, wero either wiped ojt or greatly ie dnced nil around. The Erles, the Wabash, Missouri Pnclllc and Atchison wero good points of resist ance nit day. Tho movement of t'nlon Pa cific was a notable Influence on the while mnrket, Its break to 9S being the principal factor In the early weakness of the market nnd Its rally nt tho close largely relieving the depression. The forecast of a Htrong bank statement, promising n rectiperntlm In cash by the banks of nearly 15,000,000, was 11 reviving Influence, although there has been no lack of money to loon. Yes terdny s large purchase of newly arrived gold In the open market In London by the Hank of England wns the signal thnt the pressure for gold nt contlnontnl centers had relaxed; that the requirements In Paris for tho Russian loan had been satisfied nnd that London was free to recuperate Its money market nnd prepnro for some large future needs. This Is n notnblc relief to tlio wholo fliiunclal world. The cessation of thu urgent demand for Northern Pnclflc nlso relieved apprehension.

IIRAIISTHEET'S REVIEW OF TIIAI1IJ Sijch I nirnrnilty of ISonil Crop Reports Is Mnrelj- Seen. NEW YORK, Mny 21 -Rradstreefs to-morrow- will sny: The general sluatlnn Is still inrcgly n fnvorable one. the primary encouraging feature being the fine outlook for the country's crops. Oenerol distribu tion, retarded hitherto by the backward spring, has been stimulated by warm, sunny weather. Industrial conditions head the list of disturbing features, but confidence In conservatism nnd good counsel Is wide spread, nnd the effect upon general busi ness exerted by the largest number of Idle for sevoral years past has been apparently minimized. ' Thn reports of quiet trade In Iron and steel come from the enst, where demnnd for pig Iron lr of a hand to mouth charac ter. No special activity Is looked for, how ever, In this brunch, becauso large con sumers 'ire well supplied, Indeed. Pittsburg furnaces nro booked well Into July. The demand for Ilnlslied goods Is ns heavy as ever, structural mnterlnls. bars nnd plates being In cfqiecliilly good demand, with premiums paid for quick delivery, nnd 11 largo now business not nccepted because of the Inability of mnnufacturers to prom Iso Immediate, shipments. The only accum ulation noted In pig Iron Is in the lower foundry grades, and this Is especially nota ble ns regards the southern product. Oood reports come from tho western hardware trade, tho demand in building lines nnd for barbed wire fencing being especially nctlve. Anthracite! conl notes much strength, nnd demand Is good, lower prices In the future being apparently nut of thn question. The southern coal trade Is quieter. The boot and shoe and allied trades note considerable nctlvlty In manufacturing lines, Eastern shoo shipments hnvo again exceeded thn 100,000 cases mark, and tho total for the season Is now nearly fAOOO cases nhead of last year. Leather llnds ready purchasers among manufacturers east nnd west, und stocks do not nccumulnte, Sole lenther prices are at full quotations, which show a substan tial advance over some time ngo, while upper leather Is firm, Hides are r.teady at the west, but easier In eastern markets. Such unanimity as to good crop reports has rarely been seen at this period of the year. Much was made In speculative grain circles of dry weather at the nortlvwest, but recent rains have placed that secftlon In a favorable condition as regards the spring wheat. I' rom the winter wheat bolt reports continue very opllmlsllc. especially favor able advices being received from Kansas, which promises a yield of 100.000.ono bushels, and the only anxiety expressed Is for a sufficient supply of labor to harvest tho enorrroiis crop. Recent rains, while retard ing retail trade, have helped the corn nnd cotton crops, The feature of the week In textiles Is a perceptible Improvement In tho tone of most cotton goods, which aro In rather bet ter demand nt large eastern markets, This, of course, does not apply to the print cloths situation, which Is one of excessive stocks, curtailed production nnd of goods selling below cost In many Instances, Export shipments of cotton are heavy, although new business Is lighter. Raw cotton Is a fraction higher on the week, hut ouslde Interest Is still small nnd tho fear of a corner In July deters operations In that and other old crop months. There Is more doing In new wool at all markets and manufacturers remain hopeful, al though new demands for goods Is still dls. r.ppoliitlnjj. Especially good advices come from wholesalers and Johbers In silks and the raw silk market tends higher on better demand, Wheat, including flour, shipments for the week aggregate 4,799,014 buthels, against 3,- PSI,9 bushels (corrected) last eek, 8,655.9hS bushels In the corresponding week of l!"111, XlSS.Sl' bushels in the corresponding week of 139 and 4.;M,3M bushels In 1M.

Public SlinUrn Out of Mpreiilntlnn anil nt Inrllncd In Come In. NEW YORK, May 24. Rradstreefs Finan cial Review tomorrow will say; Liquidation has apparently run Its coure nnd the stock mnrket Is Inclined to be dull. The shrlnknge of the trnnsactlnns at the New York exchange to below l.w00,(00 shares cash day demonstrates clearly that the public has not only been shaken out of speculation, but Is not Inclined to come In again nt present This N borne out by 11 genernl complaint on the part of Wnll street Interests that commission business bus been reduced to a fraction of what It was before the Northern Pacific corner. In fact, those developments have altogether changed the complexion or the stock mnr ket, rendering It one In which professional Influences arc uppermo.M, bocausn during the present week tho movements which oc curred seemed to be ulmost entirely the work of manipulators anil the board room traders supplied 11 very large share of the activity. Prices wero Irregular and, though a good deal of steadiness was shown, the sensitive feeling which still prevails mnde Itself nppnront in the readiness with which the list yielded whenever there wns any symptom of further selling of long stock. The most Important Incident of the week was the further pressure which developed at Iondon In connection with short con tract In Northern Pnclllc. The bears thcr cannot obtain the stock at any price, and while Morgan & Co, seem willing to make settlements on a money basis with those who may have contracts with them, thcie are many outside speculative buyers of Northern Paclllc who stand out for their full rights, Tho lxmdon Stock exchange committee has met this situation by it further suspension of tho right to buy In tho stock, which will postpono nny forced settlement until nbout June 10. At tho same time the sltuntlon at London in this connection Is nn unpleasant 0110, nnd still seems to present some elements of danger Thnt this Is nppreclated wns shown oil Thursday, when some scattered foreign buying orders put Northern Paclllo up to 200 and caused n decided chill In the gen eral market, prices selling oft all nround the room. The genernl conclusion, how ever, seems to be thnt the Ixindon Stock exchnnge authorities will nvert any serious disturbance and that real trouble need not be npprehended, Nctr York Money Market.

Morris Other buyers Totals 1,712 10,303 1,322 CATTLE There was a light run of cattle here tonay, but packers did not seem to take hold this morning with quite as much life as usual, and as a result the market was a little alow In getting started. Ihe receipts were mostly made up of beef tters, and the quality of the offer ings as 11 whole was hardly as good as yeaterda. On the start packers tried to buy their supplies a little lower, but sell ers held on for good, firm prices, and llnnlly buyers raised their bids a little and paid Just about steady prices for tho general run of cattle. It was nn uneven market, however, from start to finish, as some sales looked strong, while others looked weak, and this variation was noticed In the good cattle as well as in the com moner Kinds. Tho market on tho whole, however, averaged up Just about steady. The supply of cow stuff was light this morning and the market was In much the same condition ns the trade on steers. Some sellers thought they got better prices than they did yesterday, and others found It hard to get what they called steady prices, so that the market was a little uneven, but Just about steady. Hulls, calves and stags sold In practi cally the same notches as they did yester day. As has been the case nil the week, the supply of Blockers and feeders on the mar ket was very light. The few offered today changed hands at what looked to be steady prices. Representative sales: HEEF STEERS. No. Av. Pr. .So. Av.

There was a liberal run of hogs here today, which made buyers slow about paying higher prices, but sellers wero holding for a good advance, ana were not Inclined to make any conces sions. The market opened a big nickel higher than yesterday, and soma or the packers started out and bought up the better grades st 15.674, with an occasional load at 15.70. For the general run of hogs they were offering tfi.to and 1S.674, which was about a nickel hlghci than yester day, but at those prices the hogs did not move toward the scales nt a very rapid rate, As the morning advanced, however, It became evident that there was not much chance of getting any better prices, and as a result sellers began to out loose. The close of the market was a little weik, as compared with the opening, but still the average Is Juit about a nickel higher. The bulk of all the hogs went at $5.63 and !S.67,t, with the choice henvy weights going from w.iu 10 k.w tieprrscntaiivo jnics. No. Av. sth. IT. So. av. Bh. I'r. H. . . H . 71 .. ? M . 71 .. W.. 7...
