NEW YORK. May 21 The movement
of pricea In the stock market today was
erratic to a high degree snd wide and
sudden declines and advancea succeeded
each other In rapid sequence. It Is not
to be supposed that operations over ine
tpeculatlx outlook could undergo such
wide snd quick alterations as would OS
reflected by the constant variations in
the course of prices tody. The assump
tion was general, therefore, that tnese
changes were largely of manipulative
origin and deslsmed to conceal the kind
ff opera tions that a-ere being conducted.
The design waa successful if this wo Its
object, for the professional trading ele
ment and the lesser speculative follow
ing was In a state of bewilderment and
were timorous for that reason about ven
turing upon new commitments. Heavy
outpouring of atocka for a time would
give an appearance of diaorderly liquida
tion and hajrty retreat by the bull J-.ity.
A sudden turn or upwsrd spurt would fol
low and send discomfiture into the ranks
of the bears who had been followli the
apparent liquidation with snort !.
Moat of the day'a business was conducted
at prices below thoae ruling yesterday.
Little attention waa raid to event bear
ing on outaide affairs And none were re
ported of great Importance. United State
hteel waa almost Immovable moet of the
day and took no share in the feverish
fluctuatlona In other quarters of the Ust.
The action of the stock fosters tho ie
llef thst the stability of Its quotation In
the market Is aa much sought by Its
sponsors ss for prices of the product by
orriciais or toe corporation. 1 ne uouia
stock still held a prominent place r-,r
rlsing pricea even while the int of le
list waa reactionary. The assertion per
slsted that a practical alliance had b-n
formed between the Oould snd Harrlman
railroad Interest and financial Decking
for the alliance Is to come from the Rock
efellers. A sudden turn from the down
ward course i( American Smelting was
due to a new view of the dividend out
look, of which pot-ltlve predictions have
been current lately that the rate must
be reduced or passed at the next meeting.
Th declaration of the regular dividend for
National Lead gat force to the denials
of Intended reduction of the American
melting dividend. The declaration 01 a
caah dividend of 2,i per cent for the At
lantic Coast line contrasted with per
cent In serin for the preceding period
waa accepted as a hopeful augury for
other railroad stocks. Including Missouri
Pacific and tha Erie preferred, on which
ome resort had been taken, some ex-
preaaed uneaelneaa over crop conditions
was heard while prices were declining.
The rallv In effect when the market
losed was more decisive than any ot tne
other numerous recoveries during the day,
Union Pacific's strong three-point ad-
ance waa of marked sentimental eiiect
nd as a conseauence gains over last
night were the rule for final prices.
Hoods were irregular. Total sales, par
value, 22. 1st. 000. United States bond
were unchantred on call.

the offerings were not so very large tt was
late before a clearance waa affected. Some
of the beat kinds did not show much
change, but the general run could not be
called better than steady to easier.
There were no Blockers or feeders of any
consequence In the yards. While there waa
some little Inquiry, still the demand la
never very extenalre the latter half of Ihe
week. The feeling was Just sbout steady.

the total offerings consisting of five fresh,
cars and about two decks carried over from
yesterday. Still there waa a great plenty
to supply the requirements of tha market.
What little stuff there waa sold at prices
showing comparatively little change sine
yesterday, the trad being of a slow and
Indifferent chsrscter.
A noted yesterday, the sheen trade, not
onlv here, but at all other msrket points
a a well, is in a very unsatisfactory condition.
Receipts have been unusually large every
where, there being a large gain in the
grand total fur the leading markets as
compared with a yesr ago. At the same
tune, wun tne increaae in receipte. there
has been a falling off in the consuming de
mand. ThJs the two most potent Influences
have combined to depress th market,
namely, increased supply and decreased
demand. Considered from thss point of
view. It Is not surprising that the market
on both sheep and Iwiibs la everywhere
right close to II per I'M lower than It was
st the beginning of laat week.
t'nder ordinary conditions, a break of tl
In the price of sheep and lambs would
Induce free buying on the part of packers
snd shltpers. That baa not been the case
this week. On the contrary, shippers have
been conspicuous only by reason of their
absence, while puckers have anown plain I
by their actiona that they did not have
use for anything like aa many sheep an&
Lambs as have been offered. The natural
supposition would be that there must be
lighter receipts for several days to coma
before th market can show much Improve
ment. -

H'XieV Receipts of hog thl morning were
very large, 21 cara being reported, in ad
dition to which there was quite a number
earned over from yesterday afternoon that
arrived too late f r )teiday a market.
The uiarket today opened rather slow, with
salea general. y about steady. In a few
cases buers picked up desirable loads at
possibly a little stronger prices. The trade
was at no time active, snd after the mor
urgent order ner filled. It became less
so. The hog sold very largely at 15 Mc&
e with a top at SS 45. W hile the bum
sold the a me as yesterday, it will be noted
that the tup wsa a sl.ad higher.
