May opening ,c lower at 7Vp79V- Trailing tin slow and of limited volume early In the day. but on reports from Paris showing an advance there of from IU.0 to 2V '"a market be came decidedly active at d a quick advance was made to trto. At the advance general liquidation net In and the market declined as rapidly na It had previously rallied and May aold off to 7:'4,c. The latter part of the session wan generally weak, with one or two slight rallies, and the close was rear the bottom, with May 7c lower at 7,.fr7,iic. The world's shipments were TI'X.OOO bti., compared with 8.71.000 last wek and 8.70O,0uO the same time last year.

There was a bullish sentiment In corn In pile of the weakness In wheat and the market ruled Arm throughout the day. Commission houses were the best buyers and there was little disposition to sell ex cept from local longs who were anxious to secure profits. The weather was favorable for the movement, but no Improvement was shown In the car situation. A good cash and export demand were the May bull factors. The close was firm, with May V.c higher at 45VJ45c, after selling between 4.Vc and ibc. Local receipts were large at 456 curs, but only two were of contract grade. Trading In oats was active and the senti ment In the pit was somewhat bullish on a good cash demand, and the strength In corn. The weakness In wheat caused con siderable liquidation, resulting In a decline, and although the market was fairly well supported the close was easy, with May -,e lower nt J7N,c after ranging between S7'7o and 3o. lxical receipts wre 3u7 cais.

Market Hrthra, avlth flreater Va riety anil Breadth Thnn for Weeks. NEW YORK. Feb. Tlier? was a revival cf activity In today's sto K m irket, which brought the volume of trad ng above the level of lust Thursiiay. 'I here was gn inr breailth mid variety ulpo in fie dealing' than lor weks. Ihe advances were not uiiuio all at tuie me, toil as successive points t l slrennlh were i.eveloped prevunn gains were well held. In spite ot the natural icallzliiK under cover of the new fclrcngth. Theic was a pause In tho upward move ment afur the opening spurt, hut utter that there was 110 gcncmi reaction until :he finul hour. This mighl be accounted lor by the protit-Cihing sales of the room traders who saw a la.gest day s accrued than or many days past- The r notion w.is somewhnt emphasized by reports that new proposals had been received from Germany concerning the Vc ncziiflan settlement which threatened to open up the whole question. Ihe closing was steady and aeneraliy only a fraction below the best. Commission nous, s re ported some orders on outside business nnd some of the largest luislm ss of Ihe day came from houses with extet-slv wire con nection in tho tast, the mi-dle west and the south. The upward movement originated this morning In the Gould stocks and In the bituminous "oal carri r. The Gould stock have luil the advantage of an Influential pool which has carried on operutlons In th! mi. ton securities of the group for some lime past. Their special activity of Bdlur riav und of today waa professedly based upon the active measures taken to com plete the Atlantic outlet for the Wab.ish system. In the case of the bituminous coul carriers the motive for the buying was the settlement agreed upon at Inuian upolls between the miners and the opt r .uois lixing a wage scale. Tbe possibility tf discord over this question bad been a shadow upon those stocks for several days. Anothe wage settlement which seemed to giither Importance us It was consldcr-rd was that between the Missouri, Kansas & Texas and Its employes. The settlement Is of Importance In itself and In addition it st-ems to be understood that It Is to form a basis for agreement on practically all the railroad systems west 01 the Mis souri river. The Pacitics, grangers and southwesterns cuiiMiuently were all very strong. These settlements represent higher wages and corresponding increases in rail road expenses, but the willingness of the railroads to accede- to the terms is regarded as assurance of advantages to be derived. The unprecedented congestion of freight traffic upon the railroads of the countrs; is an Impressive demonstration of the high level of business activity and prosperity in the country. Present blockaded conditions, it Is true, are a disadvantage and promise some bad efTect upon earnings, but the existence of the enormous traffic is demon strated beyond dispute. While it Is evident that hcavv additional outlays must be made by the rullroads for facilities to take care of their traffic, the conviction Is growing that the conditions warrant conildence in the future prosperity of the railroads. In spite of Saturday's weak bank state ment, the money market gave no cause for depression of speculative activity. Call loans fell below 2 per cent in the late trad ing on the Stock exchange. There were some prominent laggurds in the upward movement of prices, notably the Eries and the I'nlted States Steel stocks. The hard coalers did not share strongly In the market Btrength, but the strength was fairly com r.rshiaivo nnd ernhraced a long list 01 representative stocks and quite a list of minor Indus! rials on the speculative theory that this class of stock has a better chance for growth of future values than the nigh prlred railroad stocks. There were heavy spots in the bond mar ket, but enough points of strength to make the tone irregular. Total sales, par value, $.7050,000.

Sellers, of course, made an attempt to hold values steady, so that trading was slow from start to finish. There were about 30 cars of cornfed steers here this morning and the quality was cer tainly no better than of late. Buyers seemed to be very Indifferent and when they started out their bids were generally a dime lower than the prices paid at the close of last week. Sellers wanted steady prices, so the morning was well advanced before many cattle had changed hands. The situation, however, did not show much Improvement, so that the bulk of the cattle had to sell right close to a dime lower. The cow market was also slow and lower. There waa some unevenness to the trade. but as a general thing the prices paid were right around 10c lower than the close of last week. Buyers did not seem to be very anxious for supplies, so sellers had to take -what the packers would give. .It was late before anything like a clearance was made. Bulls were attain very slow sale and prices If anything were a little lower, but salesmen had a hard time to dispose of what they had at any price. Veal calves continued In good demand at steady prices. Although tho fat cattle market was lower this morning the demand for the better grades of stockers and feeders continued brisk and prices were fully steady. A good many of the warmed-up cattle again sold to feeder buyers. The common kinds of cat tle were not In as good demand, but still they brought as much as was paid lust week.
