the Wheat market cinenrd itrnni. . with

gression against China. Kear of fresh com
plications In the war situation, active cov
ering by shorts and additional rains In
many srotlona of the I'nlted States caused
Increased anxiety among' those who were
on the short side of the market and led
to a stilt more urgent demand. The tone
became more bullish as trade progressed,
an advance of nearly Bo at Minneapolis
being a prominent factor. 'Another In
fluence, was the weather bureau's weekly
report, which declared that soring sown
wheat rn North Dakota had been damaged
by fro. For Julv the highest point of
the day was reached at W,c Late In the
session the market lost much of the es
strenaih. The reaction was the result of
selling hv a nromlnent long. The close
hnvovnr was Arm. with Julv at 87VC.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to 66.100 bushels. The world's visible sup
Plv. as shown by Bradstreet's. decreased

NEW YORK. My l.-Some considerable
declines were ertevted In price ot stoias
in the course of an Hour's (mm liens Ritt-r
the opening today ann a cnei.1114 upward
movement followed lor nnl 01 the oay.
A laige proportion of tne day's total irnns
actionn was done during tne hrsl hour and
after that thiTe was little 11101 e than nom
inal, borne Items of Infcn-mailoQ in tne
day s news offered a nominal cause for si t
back In prlcee, but tne msraet is best ex
plained by the discouragement 01 tlie pro
iesslonal element over the utter jack of
success In attracting any outside Interest.
While the great case of money ana tho
abundance ot lund.s apparently available
rather diverts opinion from attnouiing
money market affairs as the reason lor
the present neglected stuck market, it is
open to question whether a desire to con
serve the money marKet has nut more or
leas to do with the attitude of passive dis
couragement of speculation which has been
adopted by the banking and financial
world. Some very heavy operations are
proceeding In the money marKet and there
lias been a large shifting ot loan accuunts
in consequence In the last two days.
The taking up of nearly $15..0iji of gov
ernment deposits from the national hanks
Is being carried through and it Is surmised
that provision Is being made for the calling
oi 60 per cent of ine underwriting sub
scriptions to the Jlii.(i,0oo Pennsylvania
convertible bond issue. Next week, on
May Jt subscriptions to the amount of
nearly I60,km.uiio to the Japanese loan Issue
are payable in New York. The money
market, in spite of these enormous trans
actions and the preparation for them. Is
absolutely unruffled and is In fact working
easier. The April foreign trade statement,
showing an excess In value of exports well
above that for the April of the preceding
year, gives assurance of the resources of
the exchange market, on which special de
mands sre now made In preparation for
remittances on the Japanese loan Of the
more Immediate Influences In today's mar
ket the foreign political disturbance was
most conspicuous. This was due to the
reported seizure bv Oermanv of a Chinese
port, and the efflclal denial from Berlin
only partly relieved speculative markets
from this effect. Our grain markets were
more affected than stoi ks. A two-fold In
fluence In both markets also was the
weather news from the crop regions. Ex
cessive rains were reported In the south
west and the reports of damage to winter
wheat by rust Indicated by the weather
bureau's weekly crop summary was ex
tended by the weather news of today.
Spring wheat and corn planting were also
said to be delayed. But the amount of
stock brought on the market by these
factors was exceedingly small. The easv
yielding of prices, however, under the light
offerings, discouraged the professional at
tempts to get the market up. The mark
ing up of St. Paul late In the day was at
tributed to a trader's movement designed
for effect on the general list, but the clos
ing was heavy for the smallest day's busi
ness or tne yesr.

-There was a liberal run of
cattle here this morning, there being about
6.60 cattle on sale, which in realty was
considerably more than was generally ex
pected. As a result of this liberal run and
none too favorable reports from Chicago
the market eased off a trifle, but all things
considered, the market held up in fairly
good shape.
The big end of the receipts consisted of
beef steers, so that buyers took their time
to look around, and it was a little late
before much business was transacted. The
rreneral market was right around a dime
ower. In some cases something that Just
happened to strike the fancy of buyer was
not off quite that much, but on the other
hand undesirable grade in extreme cases
were a trifle more than a dime lower. In
the major! tv of rases, though, 10e would
cover the loss. Owing to the liberal run
and to the fact that the market was slow
In getting started, the day was well ad
vaiced before a clesrance was msde.
The proportion of cow stuff to the total
receipts was rather small today and as all
the buvers seemed to be anxious for fresh
supplies, prices did not suffer as much as
In the case of steers. The market could
probablv best be described bv calling It
stead v 'to a dime lower. The market
seemed to be very uneven on all kinds, the
decline in some cases being most notice
able on the more desirable grades; In
