NEW YORK, May 31.-The volume of
dealings In tho stock market expanded
again today, on a descending range of
values. The decline became precipitate
when it was announced that the Depart
ment of Justice was to apply for an Injunc
tion to restrain tho proposed Increase In
freight rstes by western railroads, which
was to go Into effect tomorrow. Prices
had sagged from the outset, but on a much
less active market than after this news
was known. The toplo was under consid
eration, however, by reason of tho request
made by western shippers In Washington
yesterday for this action by the govern
ment and through the resolution on the
subject introduced In the sonata today.
Prlcta closed at about the lowest of the
day.
A retrospect of the market for May
shows that the, prospect of increased ratei
by the railroads played an Important part
In the comprehensive advance In prices of
stocks In the month. It was the week after
notices had been filed with the Interstate
Commerce commission of the Intention to
Increase western freight rates on Juno 1
that prices of stocks started upwards from
the low levels of the year to which they
had fallen at that time. It was at the

Feature! of the Trading; and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, May 31. Weakness In the
stock and. cotton markets were last straws
today on . the .backs .of the staggering bulls
in the wheat pit. Exceptionally bearish
foreign quotations did the rest. Compared
with (Saturday's final figures, the close was
at a loss of Ma to lc. Corn showed a gain
of 4o to 14c Oats finished 4c lower to
4o higher, and provisions were down 34c
to Zoo. .
Plain evidence of strain was visible In
the wheat trade at the start. The severe
break In prices last week by the liquidation
of large lines held by bull leaders had left
the market considerably demoralized. News
this morning of a decline at Liverpool sel
dom aqualed xoetpt-tsr time of great potltt
cal or financial stress added to the un
rauinesa . here- and consequently -initial
transactions, were at a fall varying all the
way from 4c to ?4c Covering by shorts,
especially some of the larger ones, caused
a sharp rally. Strength In the corn mar-i;-t
helped, but there was no new lnvest
?Vnt demand.' In the absence of any sub
stantial support, the market turned weak,
partly affected by weakness on the New
York exchange and la cotton. Allegations
of possible ' hal damage In Kansas and
harm from weeds, due to bverplentlful rain
there,' served to make the close relatively
steady, September ranged between 90c and
914g, closing 4c down at 914c. Deliveries
on May contracts today amounted to only
806,000 bu.. Indicating that reports of a
practical, settlement some days ago were
well founded. Brokers acting for the east
ern operator who was credited with having
obtained control were said to nave prorit
Ittiy marketed more than 2,060,000 bu. of bis
u!aR holdings. ' '
Prices for corn were firmer. September
fluctuations varied from 674c to 684c, with
the. close 4" to 14c up, at 684c, and the
tone linn. no. z yeuow closed at 68ft68a.
OffMrmgs , of oats were very large, on
swells due to strength In corn. Price limits
for Heptember were j44o and 35T4c, with the
close o up at BiH'iJ J'Ho. .
Provisions started farmer, but weakened
with wheat. . Pork In the end was down
3V40 to 20c, lara 7 Ho and ribs 6&74o to 10c

The agitation against the propofed In
crease In freight rates has strengthened
the conviction that serious obstacles were
to be encountered in putting them Into
effect.
The dependence of the railroads for In-
creasea ireignt charges to keep up
earnings i;us Been much emphasized in
connection with the public agitation against
these Increases and great stress has been
laid on the large Increases In operating
costs in recent months on account of tho
high costs of material and the romnre-
henslve advances in wages which have
oeen granted. The Intended Increase In
rates, at all events, was made the instru
ment for lifting prices of stocks and the
occasion for an extensive speculation for
tho rise. The renalo of these accumula
tions with the program endangered came
as a natural consequence.

market continues narrow and fairly steady
Odd lots of old wool sell fairly well, but
sizeable transactions are few. The move

consignment, Some good sales of Oregon
at 16c, best clip, are reported, and aome
Wyoming product has been received here
on consignment at 13c, Local buyers, how
ever, are not encouraged to operate freely
as yet in the new crop. Considerable ac
tivity is cotea in tne toreign product, es

BOSTON. May 3L-WOOLr-L,ocaI wool
market is between seasons. There Is very
little of old wool going out, and few con
slgnments of the new clip coming In
Prices remain fairly steady, but recessions
bring on good bidding from the mills,
Some Oregon wool has artved on consltrn
ment at l.lo and a utile Wyoming has also
been received. The feature of the local
wool market lately has been the demand
for the foreign produot, specially t for
merinos and crossbreds. The leading dom

SHEKP Mors lambs were received this
morning than killers could conveniently
handle and trade was at no ti'iie very
active. The bert Mexicans here brought
$s.2n and prices paid for the balance of the
offerings showed declines relatively as
great. Generally speaking, tho big bulk of
lamb receipts commanded figures about 15c
lower than yesterday, with light and handy
weights moving more freely than the
heavier grades. A string of very good
spring lambs sold at 89.00. .
Iexpite the fact that total supply was
fully normal, sheep arrivals were scarce
and assortment poor. A few good ewes
were on salt-, some of the best going at 3". 10.
Strictly prime light wethors would prob
ably sell around $6.50, although there has
been nothing on sale In this branch of the
trade lately with which to test tops. While
the demand for ewes and wethers was still
quiet this morning, quotably firm prices
were paid for offerings and pens were
cleared In very good season.

CATTLE There was a very fair run of
cattle today, 102 cars being reported In.
Comparatively few good to choice finished
Deeves were included among the otierings,
however, and a large share of the sup
plies showed more or less grass. Condi
tions were much the same as on yesterday
and there was no very great change in
prices one way or the other except that
the more desirable grades found more fa
vor with buyers and sold perhaps to a
little better advantage. The common, nan
fat and grassy stuff was slow sale and In
some cates prices were a little easier.
In cows and heifers the market Was
anywhere from steady to 10c higher. There
were only about twenty-five or thirty
loads on sale and with the usual good de
mand it did not take dealers long to clean
these up at the improved figures. As com
pared with the close of last week values
are fully lOf&loc higher and the outlet Is
broader than It has been for some time
past. Veal calves were slow -to a shade
lower and the market for bulls, stags and
rough stock generally was pretty close to
26o lower than last week.
In stockers and feeders the volume of
business continues very small. Fresh re
ceipts were limited and there was no very
great amount of activity to the demand
from the country. Good to choice light
weight steers and heifers were In fair re
quest at firm figures, but the general run
of stockers and feeders did not sell any
better than they did toward the close of
last week. . .

HOGS Under the double Influence of
heavy supplies and a scarcity of shipping
orders, most of the hogs had to sell at
lower prices this morning. A few selected
loads of good lights commanded figures
weak to a nickel off at the opening, but
inquiry at this level was dull and the
amount of business done of little account.
As the morning advanced, sales dropped
to about a nickel lower than yesterday's
average, the big end of receipts selling at
this decline. Movement was rather quiet
from the start, and closing rounds wertj
very draggy, much of the late business
being djne at figures Cl0c lower. Huavy
hogs were slow sellers at all times and
suffered more than lights . and medium
weights.
