NEW YORK. May 24. Prices dropped
back easy and practically without opposi
tion to tne level of last Friday, when the
little stir in the market was caused
by . last week s great loan contraction by
the banks. The weakness wis not duo
today, as far as could be perceived, to any
newa or to any element of weakness.
Rather It was simply a recognition of abor
tion of an lnclylent boom and the hasty
gutting out of small speculative holdings
In consequence. The traders who bougirt
stocks on Saturday and early yestcruay
were troubled with doubts before yester
day's session ended. Their doubts were
confirmed by the cavalier fashion In which
London this morning Ignored the laborious
achievement of this market in lifting prices
while London wag enjoying the Whitsuntide
holidays. , Iondon prices reported here be
fore our market opened showed ' declines
throughout.
The throwing over of Saturday's and yes
terday's accumulations was then pretty
quickly accomplished and the market re
lapsed Into the stagnant and drooping tone
which characterised it during moKt of the
week. With the relapse In the money mar
ket the bankers' loan bills which hud weak
ened the exchange market disappeared and
gold waa enaaaed for export Thursday to
the amount of 82,000,000, all that the asxay 1
office could furnish. Ths freedom of the
outward gold movement Is now more clearly
recognized as following from the extreme
lassitude for securities here as against the
supposition that the demand for securities
whs belna" baralyxed by the fears of the
effects of gold exports. The Paris money
market showed some symptom or repletion
todav bv advancino: the rate of sterling
exchange to 26f ll'ic. compared with lnt
weeK a low level 01 ivtr,. opecuiaiive ue
Dresslon here was due rather to general
discouragement than to specific develop
ments, xne striae 01 ireigni nnnuitm in
the New Haven service and rears or
anm.il nf thn Hifnmiltv were reaarded. hoW'
ever, with disfavor. Published reports of
Diana for the large curtailment or. pig iron
production were regarded as a bad augury
for the Industry and business and had spe
cial effect on United States Steel preferred.
The grain market movements moicatea
an Interpretation of the weather bureau's
weekly summary favorable to the hopea of
the crops, but the stock market failed to
be influenced. The last prices of the day
were near the lowest and the closing tone
waa heavy and very dull.

no mure favorable than at any time during
the spring. Pulled woola are firm, with

CATTLE Receipts today
larger than expected and the arrivals con
sisted almost entirely of corn-fed beeves,
with only a comparatively light run of
butchers stock, such as cows and heifers.
and a very light showing of stock cattle
and feeders.
In spite of th large showing of beef
cattle the market, opened early and fairly
active, so that the big end or the recelpu
changed hands by or soon after the middle
of the forenoon. As to orlcea there was not
much change in either direction. - Some of
the most desirable cattle of handy weights
brought strong prices, while on the other
and less desirable killers were a little
aaaler for the reason that the large offer
ing enabled packers to be rather discrimi
nating In the matter of quality. As a rule
sellers were Quoting- the general market as
steady on everything desirable.
Cows and heifers were far from plentiful,
considering the large receipts, and as there
waa a rood demand the market waa fully
steady and reasonably active. Bulls, calves.
stags, etc. sold in about in same notcnes
yesterday.
Btockers and feeders were In very light
supply, but there was considerable inquiry
for them and tne maraet was tuny steauy.
