of tke Week Beads Are

NEW YORK. April JA-Ther were symp-
toma of languor In the speculation In
stocks today and a disposition waa manl
iest to narvest accrued pronts rather man
to undertake renewed commitments. This
condition of affairs caused a heavy under
tone rather than pronounced weakness.
i ne money market position seemed to be
responsible for this action on the part of
the operators for the advance. A flurry
In the call money market Is considered
ongst the possibilities for the present
week In connection with the preparations
for the monthly settlement to be financed.
Money supplies at Interior points are said
to be redundant still and difficult to rind
employment for. In aplte of this reserve
fore In the money situation there Is a
fesr that even a slight hardening of money
rates might dislodge some vulnerable mar
ket holdings of stock of the less aub-
atantlal elans. Last week already a closer
scrutiny waa being exercised of collateral
In loans and borrowers were notified by
the banks to reduce thet percentage of the
more doubtful class of VecuiiUea furnish
ing loana. The shifting of loans thus
brought about In Itself a disturbing
process. The same Influence waa at work
In the bond market to reduce the voluume
o' transactions In the department an to
Impart a heavy tone to that oiaaa or
set-unities also.
The day's narrow speculation centered In
a few of the favorite trading stocks, not-
bly Reading. Fluctuations In that stuck
were violent until It became known that
the supreme court decision on the com
modities clause of the Hepburn law was
not to ba handed down today. je at
tention waa paid to the stock afterwards,
London turned seller in this market,
prompted, It was said, by the approach of
the half monthly settlement of Uie London
stock exchange. There were traces of
anxiety In some of the foreign markets
over the unsettled state of affairs In
Turkey. The renewed absorption of gold
by Paris was Illustrated In the taking ot
85,000.000 In London for that account. Read
lng seemed to be hurt by the Intimation
that heavy supplies of anthracite remained
on hand to be worked off during the sum
mer In tha event of an agreement with
the miners. News bearing on the coming
wheat crop waa regarded aa favorable.
but the further break In the wheat market
lacked Its stimulating effect on stock.
Time loans were quoted a fraction higher
today for all maturities. The call money
rate did not get above 2 per cent. Gather
ing distrust over the selling of stocks
which appeared on all available opportuni
ties led to a general throwing over of
speculative accounts In the lata dealings
and to tha weak close.
Bonds were neavy. Total par value 14,-fct-'.OOO.

CAI": Receipts of cattle this morning
were quite liberal at this point and large
at Chicago and most other points. Tne gen
eral situation was about aa unfavorable for
the ael.ers aa could well be amaglned, not
only here, but at all other points as well.
In the first place the depression In tha
wholesale beef market at eastern consum
ing centei still continues. Although wbole
sa.e prices are down considerably trom the
high point of a few weeks ago the move
ment into consumption channels dors not
broaden auDreclublv. In other worda It
lias been Impossible to Induce consumers to
buy any mure freely, 'even tnoua.li prices
are decidedly lower. This has been- an un
fortunate condition of the market for Soma
little time back, and until tns consumption
of meat products Increases there can be
Utile hope for Improvement in-tho fat cattle
market. At Uie same time that consumers
aie not taking the product very freely feed
ers are being pressed to sell. Feed yards
in an parts or the corn belt are naturally
in very bad condition on account of the
soft rainy weather, while in many placts
it is slmost Impossible to buy corn except
at prohibitive prices. As a result they are
pressing the cattle onto the market at A
tune when the demand Is very poor.
This In brief waa the condition facing
cattle salesmen this morning at all msj-ket
points. Chicago, which had the blggert run,
led off with a break reported early at 103?
16c and with a moat discouraging outlook.
The market at thla Point was very slow
and late in opening, buyers being inclined
to await runner lutormatlon from eastern
points before doing very much business,
and accordingly the forenoon was well ad
vanced bt-for buyer and sellers got 10-
getner on a trading basis.
When buyers anu sellers got together on
a trading basis, heavy or rough beef steers
were lUtuotKi lower and slow, it took right
good cattle to bring S6.lofavii.16. Handy light
cattle showed the least decline, being
steady to 10c lower. '
Cows and heifers wero in fair demand, as
consumers seem to be calling for the
cheaper cuts of .beef rather than for th
expensive beef steer As a result tha mar
ket on cow waa steady tu 10c lower, while
nice heifcra were fully steady.
Tha Blocker and feeders trad waa th
same aa last week. The demand was not
veiy laige, but there were so , few her
that they sold at good, firm prices.

HOGS-Chlcago got 60.000 hogs this morn
ing and proceeded to send out reports of a
break of IC4UV. As If that was not bad
enough they fulowed a little later with a
reported decline of 15ii2oc and with tha
trade slow. The effect on the market at
this point can be Imagined cvvn batter
than described.
A few hogs sold early to ahippers. or to
packers who wanted something to kill out
at once, at prices that were only l'fji&u
lower, but It must be understood that the
early buyers picked out the best flogs,
taking only suoh loads as happened to
auit tl.-m. Tha general market was ex
tremely slow and aa a rule packers an
nounced right from the outset that they
must have hoga l&c lower or leave thorn un
bought. More than that they did not appear
at all anxtoua to buy even at th decline,
apparently feeling that tha markst would
weaken rather than gain tn strength. Thus
It happened that It was well along toward
midday before very, much bualneaa had
been transacted.
When the hogs finally sold, th moat of
them want at prices that looked fully Uc
lower than Saturday, and now and theu
something that buyers did not happen to
take a notion to, ao'd even worse than
Uiat. Th" cloe' was tlovy and weak, eape

and on one or two oud sales perhaps a
quarter higher tnan Inst week. Keceipls
were limitcu and excepting a uouple cars
of mixed wetners and yearlings, the ar
rivals consisted wholly of iamoa. A iouuic
oats of clipped lambs mat sold for tn.ao,
looked to oe 2dv higher than was pa d
last week on the same class of stuir. While
trade thla morning was exceptionally active
and supplies moved at tne advance In
snappy style, it was generally tne opinion
thai values would not hold up very long
under heavier receipts. Buyers were anx
loua for supplies and llgut receipts in
largely responsible lor the bulge In prices.
