While tne stock market wa llst les through the greater part of the week, this did not indicate weakness; on the con trary there was an undercurrent of strength which was manifest while the trading was slight. Tho absence of English markets the last two day of the week and a falling off In English trading earlier had no effect upon the United stares market. It wa feared that the death of King Ed ward would affect the world' money mar kets, causing a tensity which might be embarrassing. From day to day this week there ha been no appreciable effect on the market. Call money has been maintained upon an equal rate, varying between 34 and 44 per cent. Time money la a shade firmer, with a slim demand. In connection with condition In' the money market, the tremendous Influence of the Standard Oil company in financial affairs 1 revealed. Standard is, perhaps, the heaviest lender In the world to rail road and industrial corporations. From time to time within the last ten days there have been reports that Standard is put ting millions upon million In Wall street and when we conslden the marvelous re serve of the corporation the possibllty of such action could not be disputed.

Copper metal men declare that improvement will unques tionably come just as soon, as the output is lessened. There Is much speculation over the site of the year' wheat crop In order to com pare the growth of the world's crop to the Increase in population. It Is a notable fact that while the population has increased very rapidly the crops of thla precious grain stuff have-not Increased.

Only four cars were received, two being consigned direct and the balance, two cars of shorn wethers, being contracted at -Yuu several weekB ago, so they did-not aeli on the market. Normal receipts this week did not result In very much competition among buyers. A lot of "clean-up" shipments have bern coming, quality has been nothing extra and puckers have bought sparingly at all times, i'oor drehsing averages contributed to ihe general dullness, of citdrsf, but a narrow aemand at this time ht the year Is only seasonable and killers' needs are easily sat isfied. Aside from a draggy trade during earlv day, prices did not show very much Weak ness, but closing business was dccidediy lower tn every branch of the market. Hry lambs and sheep lin suffered Ihe most, salt dropping to 2U50c lower than at last week's close.
