with the outside marxets, holding firm
without showing any additional advance
over Saturday' close. Weather reporta
showed no rainfall over Sunday In any

Id. but tho necessary support failed to
come out In spfte of the higher Chicago
and Minneapolis markets.
Wheat opened firm on cortlnued re porta
of no rainfall throughout the growing sec
tions. Values held steady with no advance
owing to the lack of aupport from tho
buying side and a general tendency on
the part of traders to wait for further ad
vances. Trading waa dull during the ses
sion and prlres slumped off He toward the
close. May wheat opened at 90Vc and
closed at Vc.
Corn was firm and advanced readily on
good buying, and a decided decrease in
the world's visible supply, some selling
lster eased values off and the advance at
the close win reduced to Saturday's clos
ing prices. May corn opened at bHo and
closed at 6.140.
Oats remained steady but dull, with a
featureless market.' Cash oats were firm
and offerings light and demand fair. May
oats opened at 60c closed at 60c.

els and shipments ot 1K,I0 bushels, against

ume of trade became small, but the
strength was well maintained, a decrease
of 1,035,000 bii.,. In the visible supply tend
ing to sustain prices at a moderate ad
vance, In the final hour, however, senti
ment became bearish because of reports

clined to 54HC where It closed. Local re
ceipts were 147 cars.

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS I
Market Gives Farther Evidence of
Limits to Professional Traders.
TONE IS HEAVY AND DULL
Maeh of Stagnation la Dae to
Financial Mtaatloa Abroad and
Dlatnrbnnco In Metal
Trados.
NEW YORK, April 13.-The stock mar
ket today gave further evidence of Its
restriction within professional limits and
fell Into a dull rut in which little signi
ficance attached to the sluggish filia
tions In prices. The tone was heavy, which
Is almost inevitably the case in a pro
foundly dull market. Some of the heavi
ness was of foreign inspiration and London
sold on balance In this market. Paris con
tinued to withdraw gold from London and
prloea continued to harden at that center,
while further rlae In foreign exchange
rates here brought conditions near to the
level at which London could shift the Paris
demand for gold shipments to New York.
London remittances to Paris represent the
completion of the repayment of advenes
made during the New York financial crisis
and its reflected results In foreign mar
keta. There seems to be same specu
lative troubles in Paris, due to
disturbances In the diamond and copper
trades, which Induced llquldstlon by Paris
in the London stock market. An official
announcement was made In New York that
the selling agency of the principal copper
producers had marked down the selling
price of copper, thus conforming to tho
last week's successive reductions in the
london market and at the New York
Metal exchange. For this reason Amal
gamated Copper was a leader In tho early
downward movement of prices. The amount
of subscriptions at Berlin to the new Her
man and Prussian loans, although fully
covering to Issues, seemed to be considered
disappointing, thus adding to the unfavor
able Influences from abroad. The Improve
ment in investment Issues In foreign mar
kets was In consequence checked. Domestic
events offered little to offset these foreign
Influences. Railroad traffic officials re-
f'orted that there was no change In condl
lons and there was a disposition to post
pone the date of expected revival. The
same was true of advances on the commer
cial situation and complaints were heard
from some enters of a relapHe Into some
what critical conditions In trade. The ap
proach of the Easter holldnys was a
repressive factor on all speculative markets
and this was emphasized by the decision to
close the stock exchange from Thursday
of this week until Monday of next.
Crop prospects begin to have a more ef
fective influence on the market and re
ports of a conti rloed lark of moisture in
parts of the winter wheat belt received
some attention. The appearance of the
Illinois Central circular proposing the
offering of 15 per cent of holdings of new
stock to stockholders at par presents, the
subject of new capital Issues, which must
be provided for in large volume In the no
distant future. The depressing effect of
Saturday's Delaware Murton bond an
nouncement on that stock did not Imply a
mood of satisfaction witn m growing ac
cumulation of Idle money in New York,
which Is looked upon to pave the way for
success In new capital issues. Banks were
somewhat less Inclined today, however, to
press their funds on the market, which is
comparatively bare of borrowers. Sharp
advances In the group ot stocks known as
specialties were without influence on the
general list.
Bonds were steady; total sales par value,
33.872.fioo. United States bonds were un
chsnged on call.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle were not
very large at this point, but there was a
liberal run at Chicago. The trade as a
whole was In very unsatisfactory condi
tion, being slow and weak from start to
finish.
Packers and shippers started out bid
ding 10gl6o lower on the general run of
good steers this morning. They were all
pointing to the fact that the Chicago mar
ket closed poorly last week and that pros-
fiects from there were poor for the com.
ng week. Besides that Chicago was re
ported slow and weak again today. There
were quite a good many cattle In the
yards this morning and salesmen made a
hard struggle to maintain steady prices
so that the trade was slow throughout.
Here and there salesmen who happened to
have something In the way of very handy,
lightweight steers which were In good de
mand did not call the markets very much
lower, but the heavier cattle were lOo
lower, and In some cases as much as 16c
lower.
Cows and heifers were also slow
throughout, buyers holding off for a 6
10c decline. It was midday before any
thing like a clearance was affected.
There were quite a good many feeders In
the yards, some of them of very good
quality. The market on the best grades
was about steady and from that down to
a little lower on others. As high as
15.40 was paid for choice Idaho hay-feds.
