BOURSE WAITS FOR RESULTS thongb Well Impressed with Prince's Ex ception, Values Are Unaffected. iPECUUTION MARKET IS OVERDONE Resides Domfitla OliiUflu the Oer asnn Center of Trade ' la . Cheeked tr Kaffir Trade. KERLlN, Marrh I Although the recen llon of Prince Henry In the Vnlted States Tnade n excellent Impression on the bourse In the last week, It did not Influence values, the disposition being to await prac tical results therefrom. After the revival of speculation In the past few weeks the Impression gains around that this matter has been over done, consequent? there Is a tendency to take profits. Besides domestic conditions, the bourse was further affected by the check to Kaffir speculation In London. While the American iron reports for the last week reported favorable, and the do mestic Iron market continues to Improve, the bourse quotations on Iron shares weakened through overspeculatlon. Sev eral price advances In Iron were an nounced during the week, and the demand for Iron Is Increasing. Coal shares weakened considerably upon renewed reports of the bad situation of the market, growing stocks and slow sales, earnings tot the month of January show marked decline against those for the month of December. The feature of the week was. the great strength of bank stocks as the result of the publioatlon of the various bank reports. The conditions set forth In the report of the Deutsche bank are characterized as brilliant, and made an excellent affect on the bourse. The Dresdner bank and ethers, while heavily reducing dividends, made better earnings than was expected. Domestic loans remained strong during the week and the public shows a disposition to avoid industrial securities for the loans. General industrials weakened. The aboli tion of augar bounties affected sugar hares, but not very adversely. Easy money made a smooth cary-over, and money continues to be offered in great abundance. STOCK EXCHANGE INACTIVE fjendoa Trade Is Not Animated by Po sition of the Money I Market. ' LONDON. March i. The position of the inoney market during the last week did Hot encourage activity on the Stock ex change, where a period of stagnation has succeeded the recent sharp outburst of activity. The settlement passed off easier than whs expected, but the market Is still Indebted f8.0d0.000 or 9,000,000 to the bank, with the prospect of continuing to borrow from that source for some time to come. The most notable feature of the present situation Is the continued demand for gold Irom Paris. During the past week the Stock ex change was altogether languid. In spite of the news from South Africa and the suc cesses reported by Lord Kitchener. American securities were not helped by the decision In the matter of the Northern Securities company, as operatora are awaiting the final adjustment of the case. Although the outlook Is considered to be favorable, home rails were despondent. In creased wages and taxation setting off cheaper coal. Industrial shares were dull. In sympathy rlth home rails. Mining securities are val- orously attempting to recover after the sharp check the carnival of speculation received the middle of last February at the settlement. The position of mining Shares Is healthier, since many of the weaker bulls have been shaken out. but tne volume of business ha shrunk to comparative nothlngnesa QUIET WEEK FOR ALL CLOTH Manchester Closes Strong; and Slug gish and Sales Are Slow. MANCHESTER. March , 1 The cloth market bad a quiet week, closing strong and sluggish. Sellers were unable to make Kuch progress. Buyers are closely watch ar the cotton repaints and, are led to the Inference that these may exceed 100.000 bales. In which case they anticipate lower prices. In the meantime, whatever move ment there may be In the Immediate fu ture In the United States, supplies here nrA considered amnle for the resent. The Indian trade was dull, with offers Bf any description. There were few sales during the week for China, and inquiries mentioned distant deliveries. Tha yum section was most unsatisfac tory. Most of the spinners are credited as being fairly well supplied with cotton and as having stocks of yarn of which to dispose.

CHICAGO, March 1 An excited oats market held the attention of speculators in grains today. Alarmed shorts covered so hurriedly that Msy oats Jumped tip to and other grains strengthened oa.the Influence. A sharp reaction followed and May wheat closed c lower, May corn 4tiV lower and May oats only N3Ho up. .Provisions Closed a shads to 6g7Hc lower. The early flurry in oats was the outcome of a report that the heaviest holder of May oata was ordering No. 1 mixed oats out of regular elevators for the purpose of shipping as much as possible of contract stock out of Chicago. Shorts regarded this as a challenge and for the first hour there was a lively scramble to cover. There was some fear that an attempt was being made to. force values before the govern ment crop report, which Is expected March 10. Reoeipta continue slow and there are no Indications that point to an early In creased movement. Storms are breaking up the roads. These Influences aided In the manipulation, which did not come en tirely unexpected. Nervousness prevailed all morning and tne trade was heavy. May opened up at 4474j45o, eased momen tarily to Walc and then went upward with quick jumps to 4Ho. One buyer got nearly 1,000.000 bushels at the high figure. Later the market quieted down and on an absence of demand prices slid back as quickly as they advanced. May touched 444c and closed still firm, Vio higher at 44k(f'46c. Receipts, 94 cars. wheat was aotive at times, but with a declining tendency that was checked by the strength early in the coarse grain markets. The range was small and trade not heavy and all told there was little of importance doing. Damage reports con tinued to come In from the southwest, but the crowd was slow to believe them and on the heavy rains the feeling was Inclined to be bearish. English cables were rather firm and the sharp bulge In oats and the corn strength helped art early firmness. The outsider was buying moderately, but the prevailing sentiment seemea to laca confidence. Sellers at the same time were cautious. There was no demand for cash wheat and there was nothing significant In receipts. May opened a shade higher to a shade lower at 77c to 761o, held steady near those prices the first hour or so and then, when corn broke, eased off to 74c. May cloned easy, o lower at 76H7SHo. Receipts were 24 cars, none contract. Min neapolis ' and Duluth reported 858 cars, a total for the three points of 882, against 361 last year. Primary receipts were 642,0u) bushels, compared to 626,000 a year ago. Seaboard clearances equaled 328,000 bushels. Corn was active and somewhat nervous. Early In the session small acceptances over-night and higher southwestern mar kets firmed the market. Cables were slightly higher, but were disappointing to bulls, as were the increased receipts. But the upturn In oats held corn to Its strength and May opened W(f.c to a shade lower at 62ft21o. Fluctuations were narrow Just after the opening and May sold up only to 624 c, when oats were at their highest. As soon as oata started to react corn holders began to unload and the market turned de cidedly weak. Stop orders came out freely around 62c. The cash demand was dull and .ithonirh the weather west was still stormy country offerings vere liberal. May broke, tne onenngs oeing taaen mostly oy shorts and holders of privileges. May sold alow at 61Valc and closed heavy and weak, 147q lower at 61Ho. Receipts were 204 cars. Provisions onened with a better tone. The light receipts and higher prices at the yards were factors. Commission houses did some small buying and further advanced prices. On the bulge packers offered freely, considerable ribs were sold and on the grain slump prices eased under yes terday. May pork closed JVio lower at $15.46, May lard unchanged at 19.3TV4 and Mi, rths &37ic lower at 18.364i-8.37H.

March 1 The stork mar ket was listless and Idle today and re flected declining 'merest even on the part of professions! traders. Many of these have taken advantage of the dull business on the exchange to go away for spring vacation trips and the absence from the street of many of the bsnkers and rail road proprietors, who are usually con cerned In large doings shows the general acquiescence in the present state of thlnga. The small traders, whoee dealings make up the market, devoted their attention to the less important stocks, which have occupied them for some time past. With the exception of a rise of 2 In American Cotton Oil, said to be due to favorable trade conditions, there was no movement of sufficient Importance to chronicle.

For the week re ceipts have been a trifle heavier than for the same week of last year, but a slight decrease la noted as compared with . last week. The supply for the year to date shows an Increase of nearly 80,000 head. The steer market has been In good shape at this point most ot the week. The d mand has keen fully equal to the supply, and as a' result the tendency of Driers has been upward. There Is some difference 01 opinion as to tne .amount oc .tne ad vance, but as a general thing sellers are calling It all the way trom 10 to 20c higher tnan 11 was a week ago. una advance is general on ail classes of cattle.' The top price of the week was Is. 20, and there were other cattle good enough to bring 86.05 and 86.16. The buia of tne steers, . however, sell from $5.26 to $5.76. . There has been a lively cow market au the week, and prices are a little .better than -they were a week ago. .The advance. uuncT.i, iMiiiiiiou w ,11a ivv.v. enuvoi such aa are seilinr from 84.00 to 85.00. and amounts to lo20c. Occasionally a heifer win, sen above o.w, ana as nign as sa.tiu haa been nald. The b .K ot tne cows belnc offered aro selling frcm $2.76 to $.00, and on such kinds there haa not been much chanae. There is a better demand. ' how ever, for the medium grades and oanners tnan tnore was a weea ago, out prices are about the same. - Bulls have also improved 'in price, and a good many are now selling from $4.00 to $4.50. The common and medium grades ot bulls have improved fully as much as the better grades. The kinds that were selling from $3.76 to $3.00 two weeks ago are now bringing around $3.16 to $3.26. Veal calves and stags are also strong and active, where the quality is good. Blockers and feeders have been scarce all the week, and aa the demand from the country was better than usual prices ad vanced sharply. Stockers may be quoted 254i 35c higher than they were last week, and as high as $5.25 was paid for choice stuff. Feeders are also stronger for the week. Bhe stun: nas improvea just aoout the same as steers and stock heifers will now aell aa hlah as 83.26. At the close of the week very few cattle are left In the hands of speculators, so they will start in next week with empty pens. . HOUS There was a very ngnt run 01 hogs here today even for a Saturday and as a result prices Improved under the In fluence of a good local demand. The ad vance amounted to 510c. The better walshta sold lamely from ' 86.05 to 86.15. medium weights from 85.95 to $6.05 and light stuff from 86.96 down. It was a fairly ac tive market at jnese prices so xar as tne good stuff was concerned, but the light welvhta were neglected, the same ss usual. and were left until the close ot the mar ket. The surnlv of hogs for the week has not been particularly heavy. A slight decrease la noted aa eomparea witn last weea and as compared with the game week of last vear there is a maraea aecrease. -ine re ceipts for the year to date, however, show mn increase 01 over iv.vw netui. 1 ne tend ency of prices the first part of the week was downward and Wednesday proved to be the low day, when the average cost was down to $6.58. 'ins market nas Deen going 11 n aince that time, so the week closes with prices about a dime higher than at the close of - last- week. Representative sales: No. Av. Sh. Pr. No. Av. Sh.

For the week receipts have been very light, a decrease being noted both as compared with last Week and also with the same week of last year. For the year to date there Is a decrease of over 14,000 head In spite of the light run the tendency of tortcea was downward most of the week at all point a. Lambs suffered the most end aa a general thing It Is safe to call them all tha way from 15c to 25c lower than they were a week ago. Sheep and yearlings are also fully lOtulta lower for the . week. Ewes, however, have held fully steady all the week and sellers have had little trouble In disposing ot what they had. It should be noted that the greatest decline has been on the commoner grades.
