As lost weeks surplus of the banks stood at less than t2,t.ix and aa the atock market has reflected no important liquidation during the week, the supposition that tomorrow's bank state ment would ahow a deficit did not aem strained and waa generally current In the financial district early In the dav. Not withstanding this condition, stocks offered stubborn resistance to pressure for a time and then turned upwards to good net gains, while the money rate ran off to 2 per cent with an appearance of the urgent demand being entirely satisfied. Explanation of thla anomalous course of events waa obscure The persistent firm ness of stocks was attributed at first to a prevailing confidence that further meaaures of relief for the money market by the Treasury denartment wre Imminent Th ft;inrmtd mitiiaiiraa tnr.it (Ka fr.pm In th 1fllO. favorite rumors, either nf further 'rienredts I of government funds with the national banks or of redemption of the 4 per cent bonds of IHC17 in advance of maturity.

There was very active discussion of the abuses connected with the excessive rates for motley on call at the Stock exchange ann 01 possible measures to remedy them. Accusations of manipulation for the benefit of the lenders found their place In the dis cussion. The abrupt decline In rates late In the day gave point to some of the charges. It was evident, however, that most of the demands for the day had been satisfied when the rate declined Profe--slonal operators also made much of the fact that stocks bought at the Stock ex change today do not call for payment until Monday under the rules of the exchange Some of the huvlnr was vMntlv rtup tn thla condition and based on the assumption ) m tnot reuer would come to tne money mar ket by treasury action before payment be came due on Monday.

Corn whs up '4c, oata were c higher and provisions were from eVac to loc higher. Continued lively demand for cash wheat by millers at Minneapolis and Duluth caused a further advance In prices at those points, and waa the primary reason for u bullish sentiment that prevailed all day In the local market. Bmall receipts In the northwest because of bad weather alao aaslsted In creating the local demand. A liberal decrease In shipments from Argen tina for the week also strengthened the bull feeling.

The feeling on the market has been very , good all thla week and prices hive b""n ; gradually strengthening up under the In- 1 fluence of the good demand and the mod- , emte receipt). At the present time It Is ' safe to quote sheep and lambs l'BCSi' h'gh-r than last week. Shippers should bear In I mind what waa snld yesterday regarding , the demand being limited to the good kinds. , Huyers do not want half fnt stuff and will not take It so long as there Is anything bet- , ter to be had.

There was, however, a very fair demand and the general market was in good healthy con ultlon. beef steers were sought after at fully steady and In some cases strong prices. The supply consisted principally of warmed up corn-teds, so that there wa nothing to put a top on the market and sales did not show up too well on paper. Cows and heifer were also free sellers at good steady to strong prices and the small supply in sight was soon disposed of. Feeders were alao free sellers and It did not take buyers very long to pick up everything on sale. Tuey, too, commanded fully steady prices and In some cases pos Blhly stronger. The tendency of the market this week has been upward under the Influence of the demand and the very moderate reeelpta, so that prices are now considerably higher than they were at the close of last week.
