NEW TORK, May The early stock
market toosy showed some disposition to
continue the downward movement which
wss in force yesterusy The check to the
decline had tne appcarsnce of a contest
waged between opposing factors In the
maiaet and tne upward movement was
discontinued as soon as the selling was
checked. The operators lor a oecltne
seemed to center on I'nltetl Ststes Steel
preferred while the rest of the market Al
lied their faith In t'nlon Pacific.
The resumption of trading on London
after the holiuay with r.o cv!d;n? c f fj:!t
nw by reason of the military events In
Asia was a reassuring factor and there
whs some buying here tor London sccount.
On the other hand the heavy decrease In
net earnings for March reported hy th
Pennsylvania system was a weight upon
the wnole market owing to the representa
tive character of the Pennsylvania traffic.
The showing had a strong reflex effect on
United States Steel preferred owing to the
large part played by steel tonnage In the
truffle of that system. Pennsylvania stock
itself was little affected.
Call money showed a firmer tone early
for the first time In many days snd the
minimum rste was r per cent, with loan
made above thst. This was attributed to
the gromtng Influence of the gold exports
and to the exigencies of the bidders for
the UT.AOn.ano New York Cltv bond issue.
After the bids were announced, call money
nroke to one-half of 1 per cent. The time
money market wss not affected. The
statement by J. P. Morgan In Paris clari
fied the understanding of the method of
the Panama canal payment and made
clear the position of his firm as the Sscal
agent of this government and the me
dlary by contract with the canal company.

another drop. The-decline, though, wss
not vcrv serious, sa- it only amounted to
shout jUc, ssles going from weak to 5c
lower. It wss rather late before buyers
and sellers got together on prices, but
when trading once l-egsn there wss some
activity. The bulk of ths esrly sales went
from 14 514 o 14 574. choice los.la
from thst up to 14.66. Common stuff went
from 14 5i'4 down. ... i-
There was not a great deal of Changs in
the latter half of the msrket. though of
course the tenuencv was for buyers ta pese
down a little sfter thev hsd their more
urgent orders filled. The Ut sales, bow,
ever, arere right ground 14.55. or sbout tne
ssme ss at the opening. Practically every
thing, except some common l'sht stuff, was
out of first hands by the middle of tha fore
noon. Representative salsa:

CATTLE There were over 330 cara of
caiue neta una morning, or una oi ua
heaviest runs ui u.e year to dale. In view
tne liberal supplies lue market was
very naturally siow, with prices lower ail
arouna. Buyers tuua meir uite koout ex
amining iQa cattie ana tor tnat xeaeon It
waa sauier tale ueloie much uusiueas waa
uansactea.
Wee I steer again made up the big bulk
of th offering and the market couiu
safely be quoted generally a dime lower
inau yesteruay. Bwmetning strictly cl.oi.-e
in tb way of tanay-weight caitle mat
both thlppers and local uacaei were u-
lous for may not have twen quite tbat
much lower, out. on the other hand, some
cattle bad to sell more than a dime lower,
so that the general market couid not be
quoted anything out loo lower than y ester
cay. The Quality of the cattle wag consid
erably better man yesterday, which helps
out the appearance of the market on paper
10 some extent, owing to ine lacx 01 ac
tivity, It was late in the day before evin
the bulk of the arrivals wss disposed of.
Tne cow maraet was aiso a little lower
than yesterday. The decline, however, was
not so much a on steers, owing to the fact
tbat there were comparatively few included
in the offerings. '1 he roaritat could pr b
ably beet be described by calling It weak
to a dim lower, the least decline balng on
good to choice light-weight cows and
heifers. The most or tne cow stuff 1
disposed of at a seasonably early hour,
Buns nid just sDout ttraay, as tne de
mand seemed to be or quite liberal propor
tions. Veal calve showed little change
from yesterday.
The aemanu lor siocgera ana feeders was
rather limited this morning and a a result
th market was not very active and the
tendency was to buy the cattle tower. The
best grsdea may nave been about steady.
but common ainos were a snsae lower.
Representative ssiea:
J3S.B.S BlbUU),
BHE'KP 1 here wss not an excessive tun
of shc-cn r. sight this morning, but btLI
nets was uleir.y to meet the requirements
01 tne local traoe. Buyers were rather In-
enneo to be bearish, and In mai.v cases
succeeded In getting their (upplies for a
little leta money than they did yesterday.
The better grades sold steady to a little
lower, while common kinds were very dull
and unevenly lower, or in most oases 631U
lower. Borne clipped wethers thst brought
36.40 sold fur 86. 4u today, or a nickel higher.
On the other hand, the clipped ewes that
Drought - i yestcraay had to go today
for 86.00. These two rales are a good ex
ample of the uneven and spotted condition
01 tne market,
The lamb market was In much the ssme
condition as that on sheep. ' Clipped lanbs
old from 85.66 10 to b&. Owing to th lack
of activity It was rather late before every
thing was disposed of.
