After a period of weakness In the forenoon dealings the market developed an advancing: tendency, under the lead of the copper shares, which were favorably affected by the annual re port of the Anaconda Company, showing more than 19 per cent earned. As Anaconda is an asset of the Amalgamated Copper Company, the stocks of the latter naturally were influenced by the increase in earnings, and the fact that there was buying by brokers who are supposed to represent the Standard Oil interests served to attract a better demand throughout the list, especially from the shorts in the so-called pool specialties. All the high grade issues were strong features, St. Paul, Northwest. Great Northern. Northern Pacific, New York Central and Union Pacific advancing for the day from 1 to 4 per cent. In addition to the copper shares Sugar Refining was a conspicuous feature in the industrial department at a net gain of 3% per cent; also American Beet Sugar, which gained 4 per cent, the movements in these Issues appar ently being due to efforts to make a better mar ket for the stocks, though reports were heard of the possibility of a deal between the two com panies. The best prices were reached In the last hour, and at the close quotations were at or near the highest. The upward movement was not accompanied by an increase in activity: in deed, as compared with recent markets, dealings were relatively light, showing a falling off from the preceding day of more than 260,000 shares. An Incident of the day was an advance by Lackawanna on small trading to 600. its best price on record. Money market conditions at this centre and throughout the country have Improved in the last two weeks, but there is little reason for the Relief which is heard in some quarters that a 'prolonged period of ease is about to develop. Trade activity gives no Bigns of lessening, while there are Indications that San Francisco will need more money, a reflection of which was presented yesterday in the transfer through the Sub-Treasury of $925,000 to the stricken city. Since last Friday the local banks have lost In their operations with the Sub-Treasury more than $7,700,000. owing to the return <jf special deposits made by the government pending the arrival of gold from abroad, but, of course, this loss has been offset as an Influence on this week's bank statement by the actual receipts of the metal from Europe. The question of the probability of the return of much of the Im ported gold to Europe in the near future Is be ginning to be discussed in financial circles, par ticularly a.s before long a large amount of finance bills will reach maturity. It is believed In well informed circles that either these bills will be renewed or else enough exchange will be created by foreign investments here, corpora tion borrowing abroad for American account and remittance In connection with the payment of foreign fire Insurance losses to prevent a return movement of gold, but. of course, in the event of an absence of these factors It doubtleus would be necessary to ship gold from the United StatfH The fact, however, that there is no urgent n?»ed of the metal abroad at present, an indication of which is presented in the easier discounts in the European capitals, suggests the probability of heavy foreign lending In the local market. In the foreign exchange market offerings of Mils are light at present, while the Inquiry for remittance is fair, and as a consequence sterling rates are firm, though nowhere near the point at which gold exports could be undertaken from the United States. In connection with the for eign exchange situation It Is interesting to noto that In the month of April the foreign commerce return.* of this country showed an excess of shipments of merchandise over receipts to the value of $37,164,871, compared with an excess in the corresponding time a year ago of $33,405, 086. Exports from nil ports were heavier In April than in any preceding corresponding month In th» history of the country, but, on the other hand. Imports also were* large, being ex ceeded by only. three months within the records of the government, amounting In value to tho large total of $107,327,038. an Increase over th.i same period in 1905 of $12,216,750. The gain In exports amounted in value to $15,916,535. made up of an Increase In the shipments of domestic products of $12,267,405 and an Increase In the shipments of manufactures of $3,649,130. For the ten months ended April 30 the excess of ex ports over Imports was In value $467.6.2.164. but much of this amount was offset by the under valuation of Imports, by the large obligations I created abroad for American account and by the remittance of fot*r**4 and dividend payments on I American storks held abroad NKW-YOKK DAILY TRIBrNK TIiriiSOAY.
