NEW YORK, May SO. The feverish ac
tions of today s stock market served to
confirm greatly the views of the specula
tive element and in consequence served to
intimidate the less powerful class of oper
ators vbu saw prices moving in mercurial
fashion, apparently at the will of hidden
forces whose action could not be followed
and whose motives could not be fathomed.
That operators of powerful resources were
using violent manipulative measures to ef
fect the wide and sudden fluctuations in
prices was patent even to superficial ob
servations. The constant contrast In these movements
might leave open a hypothesis of arti
ficial support for the purpose to realize
profits or sudden withdrawal of support
and forcing back of prices to shake off the
weak following which has trailed onto the
speculative movement of the more power
ful bull party. With growing Interest of
the outside speculative element, made up of
Individuals of smaller resources than those
who undertake to inaugurate a speculative
campaign, the bull position has grown in
creasingly. The number of buyers on mar
gin unable to hold any considerable de
cline haa grown.. Moreover, the extent of
the advance nas begotten a spirit of cau
tion which make the holder of stocks on
margin quickly retreat and throw over
his holdings on any sign of weakness. As
a safeguard ot their position speculators
have been placing atop loss orders to sell
at a certain price slightly below the mar
ket. With the market honeycombed with
such orders, such sudden relapses as those
late yesterday and midway of today' ses
sion become likely. The early part of the
day waa given over to a laborious repair
process of the Inroads on prices effected
yesterday and eerly today.
The sensational advance In Missouri Pa
cific and the response by sympathy of the
whole Oould group waa the effective me
dium for supporting prices during this at
tempt toward a rally. Mysterious allusion
to the Oould railroad enterprise involving
financial support from the wealthiest In
dividual capitalist made up the motive
power of this movement. Efforts to secure
authentic confirmation or denial of these
rumor were fruitless during the stock
market session and they were left In the
realm of conjecture. The new to account
for the break In price waa of a similarly
shadowy ktnd. The usual whisper of
trouble circulated on the floor of trie Stock
exchange, which are an Inevitable comple
ment of any sever decline in th prices
there. Th particular weakness ot Ameri
can Smelting was due to implied doubts
of the maintenance of the dividend on the
stock. Whll price were breaking, senti
ment ahowed aom sensitiveness to report
of another cut In cotton goods prices, by
western interests, which have moved ag
gressively towards concessions from manu
facturers ever since the business reaction
et In. Additional engagement of gold for
export Indicated the unimpaired force of the
demand on New York for the metal. The
New York bank also are preparing to
meet th call for repayment of 326,000,000
of government deposits, which falls due on
Saturday. The money market was not
perceptibly affected by these developments
and nothing in that department explained
the uneasy and unsettled stock movement.
Last prices were generaly below those of
last night, but the closing tone was strong
and at substantial recoveries from' the
lowest price of the day.
Bond were easy. Total sales, par value,
33,440,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

the arrival twenty-two car of Colorado.
Th market wa In the same condition a
It waa yesterday snd the day before. That
Is, the demand waa extremely light, puck
er only appearing to want a load here snd
there that Just happened to strike their
fancy, while the bulk of the offerings wa
more or lee neglected. A noted yester
day, tt was not merely a question of price,
but, first of all, a question of getting
some one to look st the stuff and bid on
It.- Prices hsve been going lower so rapldlv
tht it is difficult to say just how much of
the decline belongs to sny one day, but
going back a few days It I very easy to
ee th extent of the ilump. Thu the
market I now around Jfl60c lower than
on Monday, and about la w per hundred
lower than the high time last week. Kven
at thi decline It I Impossible to move
th stuff freely, buyer apparently having
use only for a very meager number.
The condition of affair I not peculiar
at thla market alone, but 1 general at all
selling point. from everywhere come re
port of large receipts, at a time when the
demand Is unusually llirht. The mutton
msrket In the east is demoralised find the
haste with which sheep men are running
In their holdings Is demoralising th mar
ket on live sheep and lambs.
Th Chicago Drover' Journal of yester
day quoted the market at that point a
almost demoralised, with price on both
sheep and lambs generally 81.00 lower than
last Monday and with closing transnctlons
at the low point of the year.
