The end of the Buffalo elevator strike
has helped to make kualneaa dull In Chi
cago cash grain, and Incidentally also In
Omaha. The opening of Business there
has released considerable groin cied by
eastern house, and this will supply their
demand for some time and consequently
cut off the extra business Chicago has been
getting. The seaboard, which ordinarily

CHICAOO, May 27. A sudden scramble
or snorts sent tne price of Mar wheat up
2c Juat at the close today. The spurt in
May strslghtened up a drooping general
market In wheat, the July options closing
c ever yesterday's final quotations. Corn
show gain of 88c. Oats are oft a trifle.
Provisions are practically unchanged.
Under the Influence of seasonable weather
and generally encouraging condltlona for
crops everywhere the wheat market opened
easier, the July delivery being down Wao
at s-i mic.
Murine; the last half-hour the May dellr
ery became oulte active, the crlce advanr
Ing sharply. Deferred futures benefited by
this activity, the market becoming quite
firm. After selling off to 85'tc July rallied
to X6c. closlna- at the ton. May ranged
between 94c and 9M0 and closed at the
hlih Dolnt. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to d.9u0 bushels. Exports of.

pared with 2M.600 bushels a year ago. Min

NEW YORK. May 27.-The volume of
seiung in toUiiy s stock market was ex
checiiigly light, but waa enougn to Incline
the baiance toward luWer prices. The mar
ket did not quite reacn the record for oull
nees touched earlier In the year, on March
10. when tne aggregate shares sold only
amounted to it.iov. iodays total of 119,uu0
shares leit Utile to chooso between them,
'the imminence of a three days' holiday,
added to the general discouragement of
the speculation, was the cause ot the ag
gravated apathy of the market. The
promise of a growth In cash resources of
the banks to tne extent of nearly Iuj.ooo,
OUO stimulated no Interest In stocks. Ot
tills amount the eubireaeury has contrib
uted tl.Mo.ouO aa tha residue of the 88,tXo,
(.) paid to the banks last week on ac
count of the Republic of Panama and alnoe
depleted by the lecall of government de
posits. The flood of currency from u In
terior, estimated to have amounted to up
ward of 3,oo0,uu0 In favor of New York, Is
given an almost sinister import on account
of the Inference of stagnant demand for
money In bualneaa. The receipts of na
tional bank note for current redemption
at Washington also amounted to 31,376,vr3
for tha day.
The amount of gold bars available for
export tomorrow proved to be only 660,Guo,
but exchange continued strong and ap
proached the level of profit on shipments
of coin. There wa a drop of half a penny
an ounoe in the prloe of gold In London,
wbloh probably marked the passing of the
Paris demand for gold In that market, as
sterling continue to advance In Paris.
This gives color to the discussion of a
fosslble movement of gold from New York
o London direct. The probable inability to
meet charges on the Detroit Southern first
mortgage 4 per cent bonds caused a slump
In these low-priced stocks and had a dis
turbing effect on sentiment.
Reading's report of 3332.500 Increase In
net earnings for April yielded the slock
a gain of point. Other report of rail
road earnings were unfavorable, but were
of scarcely more effect. No benefit wa
felt by the market from the favorable re
ports of the New Haven strike. Late cov
ering by the day's shorts let trivial net
conditions. Total sale of bond, par
value, 31,006,000.
The stock market ha fallen back onto a
lethargy this week.
The tendency toward congestion is shown
In many ways. Currency continues to flow
In large volume to the reserve centers.
Export of upward of 360,000,000 of gold since
the first of April has passed without a
ripple In the money market. The current
redemption of bank note at the treaaury
la running at the rate of nearly 31.000.000 a
day for May. Money has become almost a
drug In the market. The Investment de
mand for home securities has continued al
most Imperceptible. The large subscrip
tions to the Japanese, Russian and Cuban
loan, aa well aa to the New York City
bond Issue, are proof of the large accumu
lations of capital awaiting employment.
The difficulty of finding employment for
capital Is evldenoed In the discussion by
bank and trust companies of a reduction
In the interest allowed on deposits and
the actual reduction by several companies.
The labor trouble this week in the New
England and the Long; 'Island sound trans
portation fields has- brought up th prob
lem of future settlement growing out of
the retrenchments still to be effected.
Some direct effect on railroad earnings re
sulted from the strike, and an Interruption
to business in the territory affected was
reported. Some growth In the export In
Iron and steel products Is noted, but the
shrinkage In domestic demand is un
abated, according- to trsae aurnomiee.
The nnestlnn arises how far the nerlod of
business expansion has left over extension
of outlay and obligations In business and
Industry in general to be provided for by a
presumed continuance of the hlrh level of
business activity and trade which the event
Is now disappointing. Ihe number of small
hanklnr eatahllshments through the coun
try which are suspending at short Inter- I
vals is a feature or me situation wimu
Is not HkM, Insignificant as are these es
tablishments or Individuals.
The outcome of tne crops ror mis year :s
regarded, however, as a subject of para
mount Importance in the stock market.

eartelnlv In the same wav as stocks. Unltel

CATTLE There was only a small run of
cattle here this morning and as all the
f lackers as well as shippers seemed to have
Iberal orders to fill they were out early
In the morning and bought up everything
In sight at stronger price. Trading wa
active from start to finish and it was only
a short time before everything In the
yards was disposed of.
The beef market could safely be quoted
active and strong to a dims higher. Any
thing desirable sold without much trouble
at the advance of 610c, but some of the
Inferior grades did not show quite that
much Improvement. Trading, though, was
brisk all around and a very satisfactory
condition from the salesmen's standpoint.
As compared with the close of last week
the general market Is right around a quar
ter higher. ,
1 The cow market was also active and
stronger this morning, as there were only
a few on sale, and in fact there did not
seem to be enough to meet packers' mora
urgent requirements. They bought every
thing in the yard tn a hurry at strong
prices. A compared with the close of laat
week prloes show an advance of about 10y
15c on the better grades. Canners, though,
and common cutters have not shown much
of any improvement.
Bulls, veal oalves and stag all met with
ready sale this morning at strong price.
Thar wer only a few odd bunches of
stock cattle on sale, so that in reality
not much -of a test or tne situation was
made. Anything desirable, though, sold
freely enough At steady prices. Repre
sentative sales:

SHEEP There were eeversl cars of sheep
r ported thl morning, but they were con
slaned direct to local packers so there Is
nothing particularly new to be said of the
market. It la very evident, however, that
packers ore nnxlnus for supplies and If is
safe to quote the general market right
around a quarter higher for the week. The
better grades of sheep In some cases may
be a little more than that, while lambs on
the other hand. If not strictly choice are
bareiv that much higher. Tha market,
thmish. la In a good healthy condition, with
prices generally a quarter higher than a
week ago.
