NEW YORK, May 24. The stock market
was comparatively fieo trom pressure to

current lor some Ulna ot the dimen
sions ol the short interest which was being
b"i he "conspicuous show of strength In to
dai s trading was restricted to aoout half
a dosen stocks, which are the favorite
medium of operations by the hlguly specu
lative element of the Slock exchange. Sup
positions as to the dimensions of toe short
Interest are based on a qulie active borrow-
lug Uemand for a number of slocks, whion
Is reflected In the loaning rales of those
stocks. Borrowers of some 01 inese moi us
are offering to advance funds against tho
stock loan and to forego any interest re
. n.i. n whlih ! Aviiressed bv the
I stock market term that the stock Is loan
ing flat. On other stocks, which are noi
loaning absolutely flat, there Is still a
sufficient borrowing demand to secure the
stocks for delivery, so that the Interest
rate on money advanced Is accepted at less
than the ruling rate for money. The differ
ence of the demand with the cessation of
the active pressure to liquidate toda'y. In
faco of this technical Index of a large out
standing short Interest, arouses some bus.
plclon of borrowing of stocks against sales
that are really sold In liquidation In order
to conceal the appearance of liquidation or
Its sources. Recent sales of stocks here
for foreign account also are believed to
have been large and It Is customary In such
cases to borrow stock for delivery pending
the arrival of certificates from abroad,
thus Increasing the appearance of a large
existing short Interest. The cessation of
liquidation In stocks for which there Is a
broad an ! nctlvo market left some of the
less active Issues to be disposed of. Tho
wide declines recorded In some of tho
usually dormant stocks was a feature of
tho day. In effort to effect a sale, even of
a small block of these stocks,
Tho news of the day of which most Im
portance waa attached was more favorable
weather conditions In the wheat regions.
Additional moisture In the. southwest was
regarded as giving promise of Improvement
In the winter wheat crop. The later re
covery In the wheat market had the effect
of checking the slow advance In Stocks. A
factor In the early depression was the break

the effects of an uncovered short interest

New York Central was such a stock. Pre
liminary estimates of the week's currency
movement foreshadowed a strong bank
statement tomorrow. The cash gain from
the subtreasury operations, combined with
tho Interior movement, seems to be In tho
ne.borhood of $4,000,000. Conjecture Is

TjONPON, May 24. Supplies of money
were scarcer In the market toduy and rates
had a hardening tendency. Hates were
firmer on the weak foreign exchanges.
Trading on the Stock exchunge was dull
and prices were depressed, owing to the
dear monetary outlook and lack of support,
which weakened consols and ftrst-cluss
securities generally. Kails suffered on pro
vincial selling, while the labor troubles In
South Africa affected Kalflrs. Americans
opened at a fraction above parity, but the
Improvement disappeared before noon on
bear pressure and luck of support. The
weakness continued until the receipt of the
New York opening prices, when the market
took an upward turn on good New York
buying. Prices closed stead v. Japanese
lnierlal fis of 1904 closed at 101.
BKRLIN, May 24. Prlcea on the Bourse
today were pronouncedly weak, upon the
New York advices, tho less satisfactory
home Iron reports and the Increasing num
ber of strikes. Trading at the close waa
dull.
PARIS, May 24. Prices on the Bourse
today recovered slightly, but business was
dull. Russian Imperial 4s closed at 74.66
and Russian bonds of 1904 at 4t.

CATTLE ReceV.ei of cattle this morning
were light, as usual on a Friday, and what
made the offerings still lighter was the
fact that a third or more of the receipts
were not offered for sale, consisting of
Texans consigned to northern pastures.
There was no very great change In the
beef steer market. Sellers as a rule were
trying to get a little more money for their
holdings, and where they happened to have
something that a buyer especially 'wanted
they secuied stronger prices. On the other
hand, It took work In some cases to secure
steady prices, so that the market as a
whole could hardly be quoted better than
steady to stronger In spots.
Cows and heifers were In very light sup
ply and active demand. Packers were all
out early and practically everything In the
way of cow stuff sold In good season In tho
morning at prices mostly 10c higher than
yesterday. The chief feature of Interest
in the cow market Is to be found In the
fact that packers have given notice that
after May 27 they will buy no more she
stuff, except subject to government In- I
speetlon. That means that all the she
stuff will have to be sold and settlement
withheld until It has been killed nut and
passed upon by the Inspectors. Packers
nave taken this action at all market points.
Sellers are everywhere making a very
strong protest against such action and
commission men are everywhere advising
the country to withhold supplies of all
kinds of she stuff until tho question Is
definitely settled.
There were no stockers or feeders of
any tionsequence In slglit and the market
was tflthout noteworthy change.

HO;s Hogs sold rVftlflc lows todsy. th
decline carrying the market 10 the lowest
point touched since March 26. Sellers
fought very hard ngalnst dropping the
price below $0, which had a tendency to
bunch sales more closely. That Is. the light
bogs dropped more than the nesvy, bring
ing the price on heavy and light closed
together thsn It has be4n on most days of
late. As will be noted from the sales a
good many of the hogs brought H.Otrfifi.lO,
with a top at $fi 15. Ye.terdav the bulk of
the hogs sold at Sti.0C64.lS, with a top at
$6.25.
Receipts of hops this week have been
very large, showing a considerable gain
over the previous week, and still receipts
are not quite up to the record for th cor
responding week of a year ago. Heavy
rains at all points have paused a general
decline In the market, so thst the hogs
today sold on an average about 2t! lower
than at the close of last week.

BMKKP As wss the case yesterday re
ceipts of sheep and lambs today were most
too light to really niuke a market, only
four tresh cart being reported In. There
was, however, the usual goivl demand and
everything offered sold very quickly at
food strong prices. Lambs sold at $7.S5vj
50, with a load of yearlings as high as
K.fcO. it Is hardly necessary to add that
the market as a whole was In an entirely
satisfactory condition so far as the selling
Interests were concerned.
