I Active, but weak, ep.tomlred the ginersl tone of the stock market during Ihe greali.r part of the present week. H.iarlsh Interests have lieen In ilueiKing every Incident of business to lend an unfavorable aspect to the general sKculatlve situation. To some extent ti.ey have succeeded In intensltylng the dlrptiFltton ot the financial community lo hold aloof lor a time. Call money this week went to 7 per cent, the highest since, January. The calling of loans was di rectly responsible for the hardening of the market. The. awplua in ban4i nave lien depleted through heavy exports of gold and It was necessary to ca.ll loans this week to make up the reserve. Hith erto the outgo of gold has betn counter balanced by the currency receipts, but tnls week the movement was modified. The New York bunks: lost approximately I4aO0,0OO In cash reserves up to today. In the currency movement there Is shown for the week a. net gain of So.lM.WX) offset In a measure, by a loss of S2,7oS.OOO to the sulitreasury. 'Ihe unprecedented gold flow of S17.50O.0OO abroad s.nc i last week s bank statement, was complied as tha chief Item. A tem porary enevk has lallen upon exports by the uctlon. of the Bank of Lngland In low ering the price of eagles In London. The mon-.y situation Is Just now a big fac tor in the market. While calls upon banks Incident to May 1 Involving disbursements have been held by some as a factor In the hardening of tiie market, we must look outside of New York for another cause which may have helped harden the market. Ilauks Loaning Heavily. For some time It has been hinted thai the Interior banks were becoming more and more loaned up and tnis situation has now been ltallsed by M all street. The heavy laud speculation that lias been gaining headway iniough the middle wesi Tor tne last several months has now reached proportions that it-call the serious occurrences of previous similar occasions. The ty4ng up ot resources of the interior banks in real estate loans means, ot course, thut Wall street cannot look lo tho Interior as a gruat reserve for funds whenever there Is a stiffening of the rates ill the eastern money market, as has been the case ever since the panic. Appreciation of this tact at this stage among the batiks and largo borrowers Is without doubt the underlying reason In chief tor tho new development In the money market. The action ot tne United States Steel cor poration directors this week In placing the common slock upon a 6 per cent busis has had a most salutary effect. And now a care ful analysis ot the past and present Income of the steel corporation leads lo the belief that the company will have no difficulty in maintaining the basis of lis ttock. Had the company paid 6 per cent on the com mon stock each car since Us organization there would have remained a balance of X206.o00,000 a-vallable for new construction. Steel common Is now selling at X24. It has been looked upon as a speculative slock and the irrand rises and falls have scared away Investors. Hut the action of the directors raising the dividend makes it de sirable, no mailer what Its board quota tions are-. Its holders will lose the cnance ot "professionalism." Railroads liaising AVnges. The feature of the railroad situation Just now Is the wage-raising movement. Fif teen of the great railroads will Increase wages 145,000,000. These fifteen roads, which Include all the affiliated New York Central lines and all the lines of the Pennsylvania system, show annuul gross earnings of ap proximately SI. 100,000,000. Their aggregate surplus Is annualiy about S6JI.000.0o0, so it can lie seen Increased wages will not hinder development. At the same time It Is likely that maturing flnanclul plans will result In the Issue of S200.O0O.O0O by various railroads shortly. Within the last few days there have been Indications that several of the roads are ready to Issue new bonds aa soon as market conditions become better. Directors of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul are expected to authorize an Issue of bonds for extension and Improvement. The amount will probably be in the neigh borhood of S50.000.000. The proceeds of this Issue will be used in furthering a plan for the improvement of the St. Paul and Its Puget Sound extension. The St. Paul proper Intends to spend S2.000.0O0 for double tracking. There Is no doubt of the ability of the St. Paul to carry the burden. If it had not been for the severe winter the an nouncement of a S50.000.000 bond Issue by the St. Paul would have attracted no attention. The stockholders of the Baltimore & Ohio nave approved a proposition to issue S37. 200.000 worth of new convertibles and S37, 200.000 capital stock. Railroad Earnings. In nine months Baltimore & Ohio has earned 7 per cent on its outstanding stock. The Southern Railway Is well ahead of last year's earnings so far. The surplus for nine months Is S4.O00.000. Damage to the cotton crop kept down revenues. Hard winter and liberal expenses-have kept down the figures of the Atohlson, Topeka & Sunt a Fe. Nine months' figure are not yet available. There was a boom in International buying this week and several copper and metal stocks were purchased for foreign buyers. The weather this week did considerable damage to crops and fruit. Advices from Washington today stated that final action upon the administration railroad bill might not be taken until June and that congress would hardly adjourn be fore July 1. Business conditions In the south continue to Increase In prosperity, although the cot ton crop was badly hurt by cold weather. Tho bond market continues firm. Bends were rosy.
