It has been assumed for some time past that the large bulng of St. Paul was In anticipation ct valuable lights to suiscribe to new stock, already authorised but nut yet issued. In the ca.se of Ureal Northern preferred the subscrip tion rights have ulready been conlertfd on stockholders, while in the case of Northern Pacific It was confidently ex pected that piuns for new capital Issue would be announced at any moment dur ing the day. Yet the Hill stocks kept fail ing away to new low levels, while St. Paul rose buoyantly on heavy absorption. The market took on an appearance too much resembling that preceding the Noithern Pacific coiner in May, liwl, to allow the nerves of stock operators to escape alto get htir an unsettlemrnt. It was lnferiod that the new capital Issues of the Hill stocks ' had brought out renewed differ ences between the powerful capitalists which were in conflict In the original strug gle for control of Northern Psclllc. It has been held aa an article of faith in the stock market ever since the Northern Pacific struggle was precipitated, with the ultimate purp.se of control of Burlington, that pre cautionary ownership of St. Paul shares had been extended by the two parties to the former struggle. H was feared that the 1 two were combating in this buying today to fortify their respective positions and that the I'nlon Pacific Interests were di vesting themselves of their huldlngs on Ureal Northern preferred and Great North ern in the sams connection. The genet al topic of the huge capital requirements now defining themselves came in for a good deal of discussion In c ,n- "ri mini inr imk9 biuvk 1 u trm wnic.ii j tpppp Marq 53 jiuj5;ibu. 11 is Mincira inai Tnlon Pacific 1x1'. these will be largely added to with the ; ..A A V m turn of the year.

Unsettled weather In the northwest had a strengthening effect In the wheat market, the May delivery nosing at a net gain of Vc. Corn was up Vylc. Oats were H'&'Ho higher and i.'.ovlsions 7V10c higher. The moderate firmness that developed In the wheat pit late in the day waa due chiefly to winter conditions that prevailed throughout Minnesota and the Dakotas, feur of a decrease In receipts at Minneapo lis and Duluth, due to snow blockades on the railroads, bringing out a fairly good demand by commission houses. Dur ing the first part of the session the market held steady, there being little in the news of the day to Induce either buying or sell ing. Liverpool cables were a trine easier and receipts of wheat In the northwest were sllgfiily In excess of those of tna corresponding day last year. Offertngs be ruihor scarce during the last hour. und this partly accounted for the firmer feeling. The market closed firm. May i pened unchanged to a shade hlg.hi at 7sVtc to ilW4('tHo, sold between 7yti '8H0 nud closed at the highest point. Clear ance of wheat and flour were equal to i,40.0"0 bushels. Primary reoelpts were Ni7,ou0 bushels, compared with 793,000 bush els for the corresponding day a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported lecelpta of 627 carr againtrt &46 cars last week and 656 cars a war ago. Trading in the corn pit wag dull, but the tone of the market wag firm the last hc'.i of the day because of a fair demand by commission houses and pit traders. Small local receipts, unsettled weather and the strength of oats were the principal bullish factors. May opened a shade lower to a shade higher, at 43Sa3ic and gold ud to 4o7c. where it closed. Local receipt were 149 carst with 6 cam of aontiact '"More activity was manifested In the oats pit than In either the whoat or corn mar kets and prices maoe a suueiajiii ad vance. Pit traders were lively bidders for outs all day, while the Klllng waa scat tered, a few We taking profit The con tinued small movement was the chief rea son for the strength. May opened un changed to o lower, at 35.'(Jo, Bold up to and closed at KV&MHc Local receipts were hi curs. Provisions were strong all flay and trad ing was of liberal volume. Small receipts ol live hogs were again the main source of strength. A local packer was one of the principal buyers. The market ao strengthened to some extent by the mRll ness of the Increase In provision stocks for the week. At the cloae January pork was up loc, at UO.Si. 1-rd was 7VUl0o higher, at i87Vu8.70.

The large caJUnc of loans by an Important private banking house yesterday was the occasion for some mystery and rather I added to the fears that large financial j operations might be in progress of a re- I lauaiory character. The resources made available to the New Y'ork market by the treasury relief plan were handed over to the banks today and there were some addi tions on transfer of the treasury deposits I from interior banks. But the total of these I additions to the banks' cash made up only a small proportion of the week s losses on regular subtroasury operations. Banks continued to readjust thntr loan account therefor to repair the deficit In the legal reserves. Exchange made a further de cline towards the gold Import point, but an outgo of over 84,OoO,ooo gold from London to South America added to the scarcity in that market. At the low prior of the day Great Northern preferred showed a lo.is of 14 from last night's rrlces and of llVt from the high price yesterday morning after the details of the stock issue were published.
