crop damage reports aided In the strength

crop advices from Germany, furnished an
additional Incentive to participators. The

Markets.
NEW YORK. Msy 8 ft was only after
the announcement of the Union Pacific
financial plan that today's stock market
showed any evidence of life. It then
sprang Into animation wtih acute weak
neas. The largest activity uf the day
was In Union Pacific and the dealings
In thst stock took on a degree of ex
citement as the time for the meeting of
the directors approached. The rise to
above 149 occurred after the directors were
In session, but before the financial plan
was publicly announced. It ran off
abruptly after the publication of the 1 Ian
to 104. The Isaue of convertible bonds
had been foreseen, but a rate of Interest
at 4 per cent has been foretold In place
of the 4 per cent announced. The placing
ot the price ot conversion Into the stock
st 175 Is a higher figure than had been
anticipated and the offer of the bonds to
stockholders at 90 seems not to offset these
speculative disappointments. The new
preferred ctock offered to Southern Pacific
stockholders at par also caused mixed
sentiments by reason of the priority of
the claims of the new stock to earnings
over those of the common ' stock. The
large body of new securities thus to be
brought on the market had Its part also
In reviving acute apprehensions of the
larger absorption of capital by railroad
corporations in an already stagnated con
dition of capital supply. The effect on the
whole market was Immediate. Stocks came
out In all directions and swept the list
to a materially lower level throughout.
Previous to this episode the whole market
was dull to a verge of stagnation and
ertered little call for serious discussion.
Prices moved fitfully and Irregularly and
there was no very constant tone to the
market at any time. The sluggish drift
was in feeble sympathy with the upward
or downward movement of special stocks.
Continental stock markets were closed
for' a holiday and this was supposed to
subtract something from the activity of
the market, although participation from
these suuicea of lute have been very
slight. More Important Is the diversion
of Interest on the pa-t of habitual specu
lative contingent to the commodities mar
kets as Indicated by the large dealings
in wheat and cotton. The fears for the
crops continue a depressing factor In
stocks, although this consi.ia nlon waa
not of much effect today, . monthly
report of the condition of thtv ,nn crops.
to be published tomorrow bv me Agricul
tural department Is - expected surely to
nave an important influence In forming
opinion on the crop outlook. The agree
ment reported from Albany lor the sup
port 01 tne purine utilities 0111 was a
factor In the early weakness In the stocks
of New York corporations. There was
sorhe further pressure also on New York
central, which was a sympathetic Influ
ence on the market. Then the strength
developed In Union Pacific, and In Smelt
ing sifted the tide of speculative senti
ment for a time. The market waa trivial,
however, under late outpouring of storks
under the Influence of the Union Pacific
announcement. Money conditions showed
small change, although rates for time
loans were reported somewhat firmer.
Sterling exchange continued to decline and
widened he margin against any profit In
exporting notes. Discount continued to de
cline In London and the Bank of England
reported-a moderate recuperation in con
ditions. Bonds were steady. Total sales par
value $1,400,000. United States bonds were

CATTLE There was a fair run of cattle
here today and among the offerings a little
spt Inkling of beef cattle. The market as a
whole, however, wss not very active, being
Inclined to drag on beef steera
Owing to the number of fair to good fat
steers on sale buyers seemed to be In a po
sition where they could afford to go slow
and take their time in Ailing orders. At
thu same time some of the buyers did not
seem to bs very anxious for cattle, with
the result that the geneial market opened
slow and It waa late before very much
business was transacted. Ths strength that
waa apparent In spots, at least, yesterday
was gone, so that prices were no more than
steady ss a general thing with Tuesday.
Cows and heifers were Bteady at least
and In some cases sellers who happened to
have what buyers wanted thought they se
cured strong pikes as compared with yes
terday. The stocker and feeder trade remains In
about the same condition as detailed yes
terday. There was a fair demand, espe
cially for light stockers, and everything
desirable sold quite freely at fully steady
prices.

HOOS Thfre was no great c limine notice
able In the hog trade toduy. The market
opened a little Mow especially tm the heavy
hogs. As there was nolUmg In the news
situation tu encourune holers to expect
much advance, the ttndi'iiy waa to cut
lo se whenever It w as p o.ible to secure
steady prices. Light hog 1 us usual were
In tho best demand and in cmequenc" the
freest sellers, one cho te load of IIkih
welghts sold up to 4n.4tt. which was five
higher, than Hnythinat br'u:ht yesterday.
This gave the market a. little better ap
pearance and some were quoting good hux
a trifle stronger thnn yesterday. It was a
veiy difficult matter, however, to see any
Improvement In heavy hogs ond the ma
jority of sol lots were quotinj no mure than
a steady market. As will be noted from
tho SHles below the hogs sold very largely
at Jti.zofco. 80 the snme, as yesterday.

SHEEP Receipts of sheep this morning
were only moderate, abrmt twenty-four
cars being reported In. Of this number one
half was consigned through without being
offered for sale. In other wcrds there were
only ten or a doxen fresh londs on sale. A
conslilerable proportion of the offerings
consisted of heavy wethers.- As heavy stuff
Is not In, overly good demand st the present
time tho market on eveiything unBwerlnir
to that description was flow and the feel
ing eaaier. Buyers, In fact, seemed In
clined to bear the market a little In aplte
of the fact thnt the light receipts were
against them. While heavy stuff, as noted,
was Blow and weak, there was a fair de
mand for handy light killers and the market
on anything of thnt dencrlptlon could safely
be quoted as steady.
