CHICAdO, May 25. There was a narrow
quiet collection of markets on the Hoard of
Trade today and little change In Inllupntlal
news. Wheat eloped He lower, corn a shade
down and oats V'f'ic depressed; provisions
cln!"cd practically unchanged.
The cool, sequestered vale of life which
the wheat mnrket placidly trudged along
today was only Nr In width. If the oxpres
rlon may be used. The northwest wns still
without rain of the ort needed, although
Winnipeg, nrand Forks and Fargo sot a
llttlo moisture, which was Hiilllclent to de
press price here a bit. Ilefore the news
of these showers reached here the market
was llrm on the Liverpool steadiness, tho
drtness hereinbefore referred to and dam
age claims from Kansas and Illinois. The
close was steady. The notthttost reports
do not agree. Some sources Inform the lo
cal traders that the northwest can go with
out rain fur some time without suffering
materially, while others declare the sll na
tion already Is very serious In (onsecpieuie
tho majority of traders nre Inclined to awiili
romcthlng definite, although It Is generally
believed here that rain In the Dakotu.s and
elsewhere In that section would at least be
of some benefit. Trade was light, both for
cash and In the speculative article. July

NKW YOItK. Mav 2S.-The stock market
continued Intensely dull today. There wns 1
no appreciable outdde demand and tirofes-
slnnal traders preferred to hold aloof pond- ,
lng more dellnlto 'tvelopments regarding I
tho nttalrs of Price, MiCormlik t Co., I
whoso failure was announced yesterday. 1
Thtro were not many transaction under
tho rule on the exchange today for tho
Ilrm's at count, but then- were Indication.
or large transactions In uceorduiK
private settlements. Thus In the
dealings there was a sale of a fMOO-sh.iro
blick of AtchNon preferred, the same house
being both the buyer and feller. Thcr was
also a report current that large repur
chaf wero made for Chicago aetount or
blocks of stocks sold vesterday for the
failed firm. The Atchison transaction was
explained as bring a mere transfer of an
account. T.ieo operations doubtless repre
sented the progress of a settlement of the
Ilrm's affairs. The prlies at which they
were made Indicated that the buying of the
stocks was Intended to be at about last
night's closing prbes. 1 .ie fait that m It
settlement could bp secured helped to sus
tain the market and nrlces ruled for the
greater part of the day at or above last
night's level, in spile of the almost stagnant
condition of the market. Later In the day
the miMaliilng Influence was less effective
and prices generally declined below last
nltrM's level.
At the same time rumors were dissemi
nated that other houses were In llnandal
illllteulty, but nothing developed before tho
iloso to warrant these rumors. The under
tono of the. market was rather depressed In
spite of the support. The evtent of the
falluro nffeetpd sentiment adversely and the
collapso of the corner In cotton was looked
to as materially altering the prjspccts ot
the cotton section owing to tho decreased
price of the article. It was pointed out
that the Invariable result of such efforts to
establish abnormally nigh prices Is a re
lapse to abnormally low prices. The dis
position manifested In Liverpool to extend
tho bear movement In cotton Instead ot
turning to the buying side at the decline,
disappointed some expectation. The pros
pect of a large Increase in the cash re
serves of the banks In tomorrow's bank
statement seemed to Increase rather than
relievo depression.
Preliminary estimates of the currency
movements with tho Interior Indicate that
the banks have gained from that source
over $3.oiiU.0iiO or about twice as much as
last week. The Indication thus afforded of
a further decline In trade activity made for 1
depression, especially as money In New
York Is becoming a drug in the market.
Tho call loan rate today fell to l's per cent
and cholco grades of mercantile paper com
manded ax low a.1 3 per cent late In tho
day. Tho reduction in the otllclal discount
rate of the Hank of France following that
on tho Hank of Kngland yesterday reduces
tho aiiractlon for the loaning of American
capital In foreign markets. In spite of the
easier money rates abroad there was n.i
disposition to buy American stocks for that
account.
The bond market continues dull and tho
change. in prices small and mixed. Total
sales, par value, $1,310,000. Fulled States
refunding 2s, when issued, advanced '3, 3s
registered and 5s and old Is n In the bid

Commercial Advertiser's London financial 1
cablegram: The markets here were iiuletly
steady for awhile, but weakened llually.
In sympathy with continued depression in
Westrnllans. American dealings were
microscopic. There wns some Liverpool
buying In the morning, but the cloe was
dull, In sympathy with N'-w York. Copper
shares were heavy, on the fall In metal.
The bank boiiKht 10,0u0 gold In Australian
bars and received 5.0X1 from Mnlta. The
Hank of France reduced Its discount rate
from 314 to 3 per cent. The Herlln bank is
oxrected to follow suit.

NICW YORK. May 25. The great excite
ment that prevailed In cotton circles yes
terday subs'.dud somewhat today, yet fluc
tuations iti prices wore frequent and at
Hint's violent. The market opened with Ir
regularity. On the llrst call prices for the
present crop made a gain of from 7 to 20
points, while the advance on the new crop
positions was conllnod to 21i5 points. Up to
noon trailing continued upon nn enormous
scute with the room trnders distrusting
their own positions ami making every effort
to even up their Interests, following the
Into enormous liquidation of long account'.
The southern contingent mntlnued to sell,
on the nme ground that has dominated
their action for a long time, viz: The line
iharacter of the crop outlook and the gen- j
priil favurihle weather fore '.ists. The bear I
situation had the further advantage of un- j
satisfactory private cables from Liverpool,
I Manchester and Lancashlte In developing
conservatism on Die part or the consumers,
doe In tine i rmi renin ts cabled from tills
side. Reports from spinners and cotton j
goods markets in this country were nbo of
, liiiorlel, ,, c.kpii i Tho ilnmiiml nn ' hnie'e
I today was very active, largely from shorts '
i to secure profits, but some of It was buying 1 '
for a traction on the belief that the decllno
of tho last few weeks hud placed the mar-
ket In an oversold predicament. Liverpool
1 parties traded on both sides of the account,
1 but bought more than they sold. Yester
day's sensational failure was not a factor
In today's mat ket. The trnde here consid
1 its the market to be In n more wholesome
1 condition than at any time for months past
and further sensational features of a llnnn-
1 clal Kind are no longer looked for. Advices 1
! from Hie south, as well as from the Kngllsh ,
, cotton market, also pointed to a more re-
assured feeling. At the best point of tho I
day .May showed an advance of 32 points, I
while the rest or the list snowed a gain or
iMr21 points. The market was Dually quiet
at a net gain of 1S'u22 points on near
months and 3"(i7 points on August and later
positions.

quite
2,r:
cattle were
though not quite up
large receipts of last
nbout 100 cars of fat
steers on sale, which was pretty large con
sidering the big receipts that we have hnd
all the week. The result of the liberal offer
ings was that hovers storied not with fho
I apparent determination of buying their cut-
ue lower in many cases tney were mourn
lOo lower than vesterdav. The lleht entile
I of good quality, hy reason of there being
j fewer on sale, were the first to sell, and
! some of them brought about the same
prices ns yesterday. On the other hand
tho general market on fat cattle was 5c
lower and In extreme cases 10c lower. The
trade was a llttlo slow, as Is apt to be the
caso on a down market, nnd It took a little
longer than usual to effect a clearance.
Cows and heifers were in small supply,
and as the demand was of the usual liberal
proportions the offerings were all taken
early. The prices paid were fully steady
with yesterday. Hulls, calves, etc., also
sold at about the same old prices.
There was nothing new In the stocker nnd
feeder trade. The supply was small nnd
the market without Quotable change. Rep
resentative sales;
