Th llie government report on the fall sown1 crop of wheat In the United States was given out thirty minutes sfter the open ing of the local exchange. The report which gave the condition of the new crop as being 97.3 compared with a ten year aver age of 88.2 had little- effect on the market, It having apparently been discounted In advance. The market opened weak, be cause of general rains throughout the southwest and a Id decline at Liverpool. Sentiment continued bearish until abiut the middle of the day. when the market became strong on a brisk demand for May by elevator houses and shorts. Prices ad vanced steadily throughout the remainder of the session,, the msrket closing strong near the high point.

The corn market was strong all day, chiefly because of weather conditions which were unfavorable for the movement of to crop. The May delivery was in good demand and the more dlstsnt months were less strong. The prices weakened slightly during the day In sympathy with wheat, but later rallied and held well under 'th close which was strong".

May oats opened 14Hc higher at 6) and 62io, sold between 52o and 6244c and closed at 62No. Ixcal receipts were git cara. Th provisions market was dull, and prices were aidled by th strength of corn and by non-professional speculators. Pit traders sold early and bought on the later bulges. At the close.

April -Transactions at th Stock exchange today wer a few thousand shares more than yesterdsy. but th price ...uYcinrni was even mor sluggish and undecided. The rnvernmnt n..r nn h. April condition of winter wheat and ry was inn vsnicie ior an attempted revival of activity. Th publication of th gov ernment figures nillrltlv rvalH hnvar that, no new Interest was stirred In the maraet by this Influence. Trsders who had bought In anticipation of a eood rron re port sold to take profits and prices of ran 011, aitnnugh the percentage of the condition of wheat was fully as high as had been exoected. The Indifference of thn stock market to inis ractor proved a disappointment to the trading element and It fell back upon the Erie financial problem as the repressive Influence on the mstket. There was no prospect of any definite Information during the Stock exchange session to show whether in pian was to become operative or not. but many varying rumors were used 'n the attempt to move prices. The confusion of mind over the Erie conditions was enhanced by the Intimation that the period would be extended for the assent of maturing notes to the plan. This removed the likelihood that the project would be declared abandoned Immediately on the expiration, at 3 o'clock today, f the period set by the bankers for receiving all of the outstanding notes in aaseni. un me other hand, the question arose Of the DOSltInn thA rnmnanv wnuM be In with the passing of the maturity of the notes without redemption. These notes sold off on the curb again to below 80. Reports of rains In Kansas offered newer conditions for the wheat crop than were reported by th Agricultural Departmcn and had more effect In sustaining prices. For eign Influences were In favor of higher prices, though In moderate degree. Borne distinct Improvement In the Investment tone was discernible both In London and on the continent. The announcement of the mer ger plan for Mexican railroads and the determination of the Interborough Metro politan to attempt a bond Issue rather than to resort to short term notes gave Impres sion of some growth of confidence In our own Investment situation. Dealings In the bond division of the stock market show some 1n cresslng variety In the number of Issues dealt In. but the aggregate transactions hold at a low ebb and the price movement continues Irregular. In spite of the exces sive dullness of the drallngs In stocks, floor traders ' find few offerings for sale and argue from this that no liquidation is being attempted. Comparatively light buying serves to ad vance prices and a strong technical posi tion ia argued from this. Rumors that the Erie plan would become operative grew more positive late in the day and rallied prices. The numerous shifts In the price movement so far offset each other that the day's net changes are not Important. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,506,000.

The market as a whole was against the sellers and the better the rattle were the poorer showing they made on the market The best of the cattle on sale. were corn- fiKl steers. Buyers were out In pretty fair season, but It was very evident that their oruers were more or less limited and that they were not feling very atrong as re gards values. Handy, light and medium weight steers were the best sellers. Csttle of that description sold anywhere from sieany 10 10c lower. Heavy cattle, even those of very good quality were very much neglected ana were extremely hard to move, tilds on that kind were anywhere from 10c to 20c lower than yesterday, with buyers not appearing at all anxious to secure them even at the decline. The fall ing off In the shipping and export trade at' eastern points Is apparently responsible for the condition of the market on heavy steers. Cows and heifers were In light suriDlv anil tne goon Kinds generally stesdy re gardless of the weakness prevailing In the beef steer trade. Some of the verv best feeders were per haps steady, but the general tendency of the feeder market was lower, with the trade alow, while stockers were extremely hard to move, even at the very low prices that have prevailed of late.

Conditions gov erning the trsde could hardly have been worse so far ss the seller's Interrsts were concerned. The collapse of the mutton market In the east, followed by the heavy bresk In the Chicago market for sheep and lambs, was as a mstter of fact at the omiorn or tne trouble. This morning early advices from Chicago not only reported the market there as very slow and lower, hut aa the next thing to dead. Buvers at this point, accordingly atarted out not only with Instructions to buy their supplies lower, but with the evident Intention to act very cautiously. Hence ' It was the morning wore away with very llttlo busi ness being transscted. and It wss well along toward midday before a sufficient number of sheep and lambs had changed hands to really fix the msrket. Prices generally were fully 1016c low.-r all around.
