CORN Notwithstanding the fine weather,
th corn market, both for cash and fu-

ant help seems to be sympathy with wheat
and the disposition on the part of shorts
to cover their lines. There is even some
talk emanating from southern Illinois and
eastern Missouri of need of rain, but this
has not gained much credence, as these

moisture within a fortnight. Corn ship-

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Harrlman'a Illness of None Effect,
Soatbern Pacific Slumps.
NEW TORK, May 15. There was some
further liquidation of stocks today, which
seemed due much to the mere lapse of time
without sny stock market awakening as to
any positive development in the situation.
Selling by tired holders Is Wall street's ex
pressive, phrase for this class of liquida
tion. It was not in large volume today, but
It was effective In depressing prices on ac
count of the almost total absence of any
buying demand. There was some demand at
the lower level for bear account to cover
contracts. So considerable a price move
ment as that of today has come to be so
rare an occurrence that the professional
element is anxious to avail Itself of it to
take quick profits. The activity was rela
tively much greater on the decline than on
the recovery and the recovery was not well
held, prices sagging again toward the last,
making a lifeless and heavy closing. To
day's declines carried a number of promi
nent stocks to the low level for the year.
Including St. Paul, New York Central,
Pennsylvania, Southern Pacific and the
United States Steel stocks. The previous
low level was at the time of the break in
connection with the Northern Securities de
cision, and today's low prices were only
fractionally below those at tbat time, ex
cept the United States Steel storks, In
which low prices were touched Wednesday.
The Steel stocks were notably Arm today,
although the dealings In them were small
and the price variation very narrow. Re
ports of further reduction in the price of
iron did not affect them, although the con
dition of the iron market was a continued
Incentive In the market. Rerjorta that the
Lehigh Valley had determined to curtail its
Intended improvements, owing to the high
cost of material and labor, were accepted as
a symptom which promises badly tor the
further demand for finished Iron products,
however much benefit may accrue to net
earnings or railroads. The rear or a gen
eral diminution of consumption of all prod
ucts on account of the high level of prices
plays a strong part In the hesitation now
ruling in the speculative market. Of to
day's more Immediate future the forecast
of a weak bank statement was the fore
most. The loss of the banks to the sub
treasury amounting to $1.3uti,0O0. and to
day's engagements ot $l,2b0,uuo gold to be
shipped to Argentina tomorrow, make an
aggregate which is scarcely offset by the
estimated receipts of the banks on balance
from the' interior. It is feared that the
process of loan expansion by the banks has
been proceeding on a liberal scale during
the week in the course of the paying off of
foreign indebtedness. It will be seen that
the net result upon the surplus reserve
promises to decrease that Item. Reports of
damage to the wheat crop by the Hessian
fly played a part in the selling of the gran
gers. The news of the Illness of E. H. Har-
riman aid not cause any special effect on
stocks In which he Is largely Interested.
The bond market continued Irregular today,
but the general tone was heavy. Total
sales, par value, $1,706,000.

Secretary Hester's statement of the
world's visible supply of cotton gives the
total visible as 2.872.403 bales, of which 1,733,
403 was American cotton.
NEW YORK, May 15 COTTON-Opened
easv with mires 2 nnlnts hls-her to 8 Dolnts
lower and, notwithstanding the strength of
Liverpool cables, showed sun further weas
ness immediately following the call, under
heavy realising. The first rush of these
orders over, however, the market was ral
lied a few points by south.- n buying, but
various spot houses and European Interests
hammered the market and prices soon de
clined to a level net fc39 points below the
close of yesterday. At this time May was
selling at ll.OOc. compared with 11.40a earlier
in the morning, and July, touching 10.73c,
showed a decline from the best of the ses
sion of 24 points, and 27 points from the
best price of yesterday. August meantime
showed less weakness, selling down only
16 points from the best or the morning.
Following this the Hat was rallied under
clique support and It seemed that the room
also was inclined to take the long side for
a scalp. But Liverpool and New Orleans
showed a reactionary tendency and the
market responded slowly. Still prices were
persistently forced upward until a level
net .i-4 points lower had been reached.
SDeculatlon during this movement was .not
so active as during the last two days, out
the market continued to reflect the utmost
nervousness and Irregularity. Some trade
was expecting that the clique would make
a Anal wind up of the shorts just before
the close for the purpose of affecting Liv
erpool tomorrow. Some buying- may have
been affected on this theory, which proved
Incorrect, however, ' for the clique brokers
sold very heavily in the last few minutes
and prices eased off. The market was
finally steady, however, at a net decline of
6iJ 28 sjolnts. Total sales were estimated at
6o0,l00 bales. The .partial recovery during
the midday session" was encouraged by
light nort recelpiA arid a small movement
Into sight than expected, though the fig
ures were still over last year's, while on
the other hand crop reports were generally
favorable, advices from spinning centers
were no more favorable and there were re
newed rumors that , actual cotton was be
ing attracted this way from' all directions.

Wool Market.
BOSTON. May 15. WOOL The Commer
cial Bulletin will say tomorrow: The boom
ing wool prices in London have failed to
stir the lethargy of the Boston wool trade,
end recelpta are larger than shipments.
The prolonged labor troubles all over the
country during the last year have evidently
reduced the purchasing power of the people
to a certain, extent, and .machinery is for
the first time in years being shut down In
the mills manufacturing the better class of
worsted fabrics, not from existing strikes
In those particular mills, but from lack of
orders. Coarse and medium woolens are
moving pretty well, but the beat goods are
dull. The threat of strikes, too, is encour
aging the most conservative attitude on the
part of clothing manufacturers, who nat
urally do not wish to be causing stocks of
clothes on hand by any strike In their In
dustry. All of this v Is restricted In all
branches of the -vool trade, except In the
primary markets of the west. Boaton deal
ers appreciate that the wool will be wanted
at some time, and they are purchasing
throughout the territories with some free
dom, though with no such eagerness as
characterized the purchasing In Montana
last year. The cost laid down In Boston of
round lots of hew territory wools is 474148c.
Shipments of wool from Boston to date
from December 81. 1902. are 89.969.961 lbs.,
sgainst 92,336,167 lbs. at the same date last
year.

o , more pioderaie
run of cattle uere mitt mcrfiiiiig, una even
tnougn tne supply tor the ween has been
very liberal, uuyera icok hold ireeiy, etud
a lully steady market was experienced.
About tne usual prouortion ot tne offer
lngs consisted of beef steers, and wnlie tne
market was a little more active than it was
yesterday there was not much change lit
prices. Owing to the ru pld fluctuations of
the last few uays prices are ratner uneven
so that while some salesmen thought they
had a little better luck today, others were
calllna- the market no- more than steady.
The general situation could probably best
be described tiy calling me inaraet, lajriy
active and iullv. steady.
There was also a little more snap to the
cow trade. Prices, though, showed very
little Improvement from yesterday, and tho
same as was tne case witn Deei u?cra, tne
market could best be described by calling
it fully steady. There were comparatively
few Blockers and feeders In the yards this
morning, so that an oarly clearance was
made.
nulls venl calves and stags did not show
enough change from yesterday to be worthy
of mention. ...
There were very few stockers and feeders
on sale today, and as the end of the week
is at hand not many were vmnra.
few cattle that did arrive sold at Just
.k,i .i.irtv nrlces. The demand from the
country has been sufficient this week to
clean up practically an mo ui-ra ""V,";
that have arrived, so that speculators will
start out the new week with empty pens.

HOGS There was another enormous run
of hoga here today, which makes the re
ceipts for the last two days by far the
heaviest of any two days this year. Pack
ers naturally took advantage of the heavy
run to pound the market to a still lower
level, but still they did not take off as
much ss might be expected. They seemed
tn want the hoga and the general market
"was only 2V?c lower than yeaterday.
They started In bidding a nickel lower, bnt
soon raised their bids, and then the bogs
began to sell at a rapid rate, and the bulk
was disposed of In good season. The bulk
of the hoes sold st $'.32'4 snd $.. with the
choicer loads selling largely from $6.36 to
is o. Tne commoner loans went irora e.j

Tho lilrl to Marry.
Boms marry Just for beauty.
Some coldly wed for wealth.
Borne make a requisition
For a girl In perfect health.
Borne men prefer a woman
Wise enough to write a book.
But the shrewd man, when he marries,
Picks a girl out who can cook.
For riches sometimes vanish.
And beauty quickly fadea,
And frequently men tire
Of these very learned maids.
Bo huabands often wriggle
On the matrimonial hook.
But a man la always happy
If his wife knows how to cook.
