pairments of crop prospects sll the way

provisions.
Both Investors and shorts Joined In
keeping the wheat pit In a turmoil and
forcing the market up round after round.
According tb one high authority the con
dition of the soft winter crop In Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois might be conserva
tively stated as the worst that had been
held In a lifetime. Another prominent
expert, however, said mucn unpromlalng
wneat would yet germinate witn lavor
. able weather.
Opening prices of wheat were practically
' the lowest of hs day and the closing
the highest, uunng the session. July
ranged from ll.(W'vil04, with tbe final
' tons strong at Sl.OvSwlH " of Just

NEW TORK: April It The force of
reaction were conspicuous again on the
stock exchange today. Prices yielded
from one to over two points In almost
all the active ti.ute and for many of
theae the loa-eat prices of the week were
reglsterd. Labor unrest aa demonstrated
In the decisive "strike vote" of the east
ern railroad engineers and tbe probability
of aa unfavorable report against the
steel corporation by the Stanley commit
tee, were potent Influences.
The opening was lrregu,sr with another
spectscular rise In Canadian Pacific, Its
1-point advance being In rrafonse tu a
similar gain In London. New York Cen
tral wss active and strong In the Initial
dealings, aa were also Amrrtcsn Can
common and preferred. Theae were more
then offset, however, by pressure against
Steel and Union Pacific which continue
to hold their places u market baro
meters. The movijeent throughout the
early session wss uncertain. Not until
after midday did t'.se telling make more
than a slight imfiresainn ami in the mean
lime New York Central had ilsen to Its
best price 3t the rm-veiiH-nt, while Csn
common established Its very beat quota
tion, with considerable accumulation of
the preferred. In the last hour, after
alternate advance and declines, the mar
ket went to its lowest kvel, with recur
rent selling of Steel and I'nlon Pacific.
The heavlnea of the Harriman was
acompenled by reports of new financing
wnicn were later ornciany denied.
The cloalng wa weak with little auu
port at consesalons. Out of a total ap
proximating 86.U00 shares, Steel supplied
almost t per cent with Reading ami
t'nlon Pacific aa th moet active railroad
slocks.
Domestle bank clearings gained over S
per cent over the corresponding week of
lost year, but were practically th same
sa in the same week of 110. Trie gains
sre due chljlly to operations of loos I
financial Institutions la connection with
stock market activity, .

CATTLE - Cattle receipts were ex
tremely light today. In fact, so light that
there were really not enough oh tale to
make a market. The total receipt for
the five day foot up 14. 441 head, being
the smallest for any week la a long tlm
back, excepting only last Week, when
floods Interfered with shipments.
What few cattle there were here gen
erally sold In the morning, at prtoss that
were entirely satisfactory to ths sslllng
interest, but thr were o few here
that It wa really a very hard matter to
tell Just whst ths market waa. To quota
It stesdy would probably be a near ths
truth as possible. Among the offering
of beef steer wss a bunch good enough
In hrlne ts ml Th offsrtnes of cows and
heifers were very meager, but they, too,
sold In about the same notches as yes
terday. .
There were mot enough Mockers or
feeders to talk about, but as a rule th
feeling wss )ust about stesdy.
It Is ssfe to quote all kinds of killing
cauls as fully Mo higher then last week,
with many sales actually showing con--1
w... .iM.M than that. Feed-
erg hsvs also shown quit a llttl strength
during the ween.

HOOS-Hogs sold at prices SsjlOc higher,
the sdvance being prompted by limited
receipts, a good shipping demand and
light killing reserves. - All but onejrtro
of th regular buyer tarted out early
causing an actlv session and creditable
clearance. . . .... .
The supply was estimated st fully toot
head snd fir an April run. 4 '
attractive, bulk consisting of good
butcher grades. Shippers selected smooth,
medium weights oa outsldd orders, as a
rule, and purchased almost one-fourth of
total offerings. Backward demand from
one of two packing concerns hsd no sp
prerlsble effect upon trade sctlvlty and
reluctant buyers were finally forced to
get In at the earlv advance, practically
everything selling before 11 o'clock.
Heat heavy hogs reached S7 .ia. ss com
nared with yesterday s top of ST.-. Bu J
moved within ST.tO7S and bacon stuff,
weighing M pounds and lea, showed
the dime advance more frequently then
other offerings. Light grades were poor
est sellers yesterdsy. however, and wet
naturally due for larger advance today.

will say:
The principal Industries 'and trades
maintain their recent gains In activity
snd an amount of business is carried on
which, although still below the full limit
of capacity, shows, nevertheless, a dis
tinct sdvance and la on the whole very
satisfactory. The good spring weather
genersily prevailing is producing renewed
activity in building operation, which
creates a larger demand for the v&rioua
building materials, it also facilitates the
distribution of merchandise, both whole
sale and retail, and from a number ol im
portant points In the middle west and
northwest come report of expanding
operations. With this general mainte
nance of the recent growth In Industrial
and trade activity there Is also a fairly
steady continuance of the recent notable
gains tn business confidence In spite of
the temporary effect of passing svents
which affect In some degree the more
peculative markets.
Mill operations cont!iiue to expand In
iron and steel and . the leading Interest
Is now running at. over Sv per cent of
capacity. Contracts have been placed by
tne car companies for about m.m tons ot
plate and shape for second and third
Quarters and in the central west a
scarcity of pistes for early shipments has
aeve'oped. -iinpiste and sheet mills are
booked almost to capacity and in wlra
goods more activity is noted.
While the demand for cotton goods is
somewhat less pronounced, the market
rules ii rm an) further advances nave
been named in a number of lines. Export .
trsde ia quieter because of price advances
and the heavy buying of recent weeks.
ah reports agree that trade id woolen

expand still further, a reorders on fin
dress rsbrlcs for fall have already be
gun, tailors to the trade are duolicatiiis:
and salesmen on the road are getting a
oeiter ouainess man at this tlm a year
ago. Cotton knitting yarns have ad
vanced and worsted spinners are being
pressed for deliveries.
Trading In footwear Improves at ths
season advances, but there la no arrive
buying, as most wholesalers are operating
conservatively on account of high prices
ana unsettled styles, leather maintain
its recent rate of progress. Domestio
hides, both packer and country, are more

tomorrow will isy:
Trade and Industrial developments ar
largely favorable and optimism predom
inates. Trade reports include advices ot
a quieting of spring demand at large
eastern centers, with attention turning to
late summer and fall trade, but ot an
Improvement nearer points of flnsl dis
tribution, except aa in the lower Missis
sippi valley, where high water holds bark
agricultural operations and retards sales
to country merchant. Eastern trads has
been Irregular, but fair on ths whole and
generally better than last year.
In Industrial lines features sre the con
tinued Idleness of the country's coal min
ers pending possible settlements now
under negotiations and the auletlng down
of the textile labor ailitatlon ss advances
are offered and accepted and the pros
pects of an expenditure for building tor
the first quarter not much behind last
year, but a majority of dtlet still re
porting decrease, however.
In the Iron and atael trads there Is a
higher level of prices ruling with the
growth of a feeling that this Is, to a
certain extent curtailing some demand.
It Is also felt that higher prices for cot.
ton goods and the backwardness of de
liveries may have soma effect upon fu
ture orders, those for summer and fsll,
which are engaging jobbers' attention
now that regular aprlng demand I meas
