NKW TORK. May 14,-Prlces were high
again at the Stock exchange, but the Sell
ing under covering to reslixe profits, whlrli
has been a feature nf the market all
through the week, even at Its periods of
greatest apparent strength, was pushed
steadily and persistently. The market was
undermined and turned wak. ftr a show
of strength In the first hour that was mote
consistent nnd comprehensive tlisn et nn
time previously this week. The leading
speculstlve stork all moved upward In con
cert. Prices have been carried to the high
est level touched since Jsnuary of lt"7
There are pfomlnfnt examples In the list
of stocks that have touched record prices
tnls week, notably among these high-priced
coalera. Such speculative leaders as Union
Pacific. Southern Pacific, Reading and
United States Steel are within a few points
of the highest prices ever reerhed.
The recent speculation has been shaping
to the asvimpilon thst this country wss
moving to i era of prosperity which would
excel all It past history In that respect.
The strength of this conviction Is witnessed
by Its efficacy In carrying up prices It their
present levels at a stage of the business
revival which admittedly Is Immature yet.
There was something striking In the una
nimity with which the leaders In banking,
railroada and Industry expressed their hope
fulness todsy ever the business prospects.
The news of rains In the southwest was
regarded aa affording lmiortant relief, and
the optimistic estimate of the prop outloxk
from Chairman Jkiupj J. Hill of the Great
Not them received a good deal of considera
tion. Heavy sales of copper were reported.
Foreign Influences were favorable to the
market. Kven the money outlook gave less
concern than for some days past. The time
loan market was called somewhat easier
and the preliminary estimates of the week's
currency movement Indicated the largest
balance of receipts over shipments In the
Interior for any week of the season. The
hardening of time money rates earlier In
the week seems to have attracted this In
flow. London advices point to some bor
rowing there for New York account, in
spite of tha command by London of our
gold supplies. Strength In foreign exchange
pointed to further gold exports. London
sold stocks here. The foreign trade state
ment for April shows the effect of the
continued heavy Imports combined with
falling off in exports In the shrinkage of
the excess of exports to a value of $2,990,161.
compared with 46,K!0,1J In April of last
year.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $6,550,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

CATTLE Receipts or cattle this morn
ing, as usual on a Friday, were rather
light, only ninety-four cars being reported
in. The total for the week to date foots
up 18,000 head, a falling off of over .0nD
head, as compared with last week, but a
slight gain over the previous week and
over the same week a year ago.
The market on beef steers was devoid of
any especially new or Interesting features.
Heavy cattle did not move off any too
freely, but still pretty much everything
changed hands In fair season In the morn
ing at Just about steady prices. Qood
I' ads of steers sold up as high as $4.80.
Toward the close, after the more urgent
orders had been filled, the market eased
off on beef steers, becoming generally 10c
lower than yesterday. The feeling at the.
last was both dull and wesk.
Cows and heifers also commanded about
steady prices, and the trade on that kind
of cattle was sufficiently active to effect
a reasonably eorly clearance.
There were very few stockers or feeders
In the yards In first hands. The feeling
was abo'it steady on good weighty cattle,
but the market on light stockers, aa rv.ted
yesterdny. Is very much demoralised and
around 5c lower than it waa the middle
of last week

Representative sales:
HOGS Hogs sold strong to So higher this
morning but the advance was uneven.
Thus good heavy hogs In many cases sold
fully 5c higher while lighter and butcher
weight hogs did not show In all cases aa
much advance. In fact there were cases
where hogs that did not especially appeal
to the buyer had to sell at prices that did
not look much If any better than steady
with yesterday. The trade was not very
active at the advance, packers being back
ward about putting on while salesmen
worked hard to force the market upward.
Still the big bulk of the hogs changed
hands In good season, gping largely at
$6.907.25 and on up as high as $7.35 for the
best heavy. Today's top price Is the
highest so far this season and the highest
of any year since March 194) when $7.40
was paid.
SHEEP-The packers had thslr inning
this morning In the sheep barn and played
their little game In errorless style. Even
with light receipts they were able to force
a decline of 16"'a'2fo on wooled lambs.
Lambs that sold yestorday at $925 moved
this morning at $900, a full quarter
decline.
There were practically no shorn supplies
on sale and aa a result prices on clippers
aro quntably unchanged. Sheep values In
the wooled depsrtment as well suffered no
actual decline for the same reason.
The trade was slow throughout the
session, a number pf cars of stale supplies
making it easier for the packer to prune
valuea.
This morning's developments are in a
large measure the logical reault of over
InfUted .live mutton valuea. A local sales
man sited up the situation In this manner:
"The limit waa reached and paased a
couple pf days ago. although nobody
seemed to realize It at the time. Omaha
has been following too close at the heels
of Chltss'o to put the market on a per
manent baa's. This morning's sis lighter of
valuea whs only logical. The sheep market,
like water, will eventually flnda Its natural
level."
Limited receipts today makes It exceed
ingly difficult to accurately call the ex
tent of the decline, especially on sheep,
both clipped and wocled.
