Transactions in yesterday's short session of the stock market were light in volume on a movement of values which generally favored the long account. An exhibition of pronounced strength in St. Paul apparently was due to speculation based on the theory that the com pany. In financing its Western extension, will give to the stockholders valuable rights. So tar there has been no official confirmation of the Wall Street report regaining the form which St. Paul's probable financing will take, but -peculators appear to believe that there will be an issue of bonds, also of stock The present time does not appear to bo rropitious for the bringing out of new securities issues, especially as bo many underwriting syndicates are tied up with stotks and bonds for which they have been unable to find a market, and as a consequence ft. Paul may conduct a large part of its financ ing in the foreign markets The publication of a bank statement which was not as favorable as Friday's estimates Indicated was without < -if--' ' on values. According to the known move ment of money in the week, the Clearing House return should have presented a gain in ca^h of between $G,fWO.OOO and $9,«X)0.000. but the actual figures showed a gain of only $1,126,000, while the reserve above lesal requirements was increased by only 1121.875. An Increase in loans "f P2,HV2.000, with the gain in each, accounted In great part for the increase in deposits of more than 14^000.000. the latter ' Hem causing a pain In the rash required against deposits of £1.004,000, hi'!:, deducted from the Increase in a. nnd $31,700,875 In the corresponding period In 1904. Closing prices as a rule were at or near the best of the day. According to the belief of the best informed men In Wall Street there will be a further large return movement of money from San Francisco In the couree of a few weeks, and as a conse quence it Is r.srume?! that there will be a large enough accumulation of funds in the city banks to maintain ■ relatively easy level for loans in the next two months. The action of the- Secre tary of the Treasury In the week in suspending special government deposits with the banks against an equivalent amount of gold engaged abroad ought to be considered a reassuring de velopment of the present situation, inasmuch as it reflects the Improved condition of money and the passing of the necessity for further emergency measures. While the National City Bank engaged .500.000 gold for import last week there probably will be no further arrange ments for shipments of the precious metal from Europe to this country until there is an actual necessity for such a movement. Current rates of exchange, together with the price of gold and money abroad, are not in favor of gold ex ports to New York, and It is therefore extremely Improbable that additional engagements will be made. The gold engaged by the National City Bank was taken in Australia, where sterling Is generally at a premium. A large amount of finance bills matured In the last week, but these were offset by contracts against shipments of corn later on in the season. There was no pressure of bills on the market in the week, and no evidence of any special inquiry for remit tance. While railroad earnings in the last week were large In the great number of issues, there was a material falling off in the coal roads, including Pennsylvania, and the net gains reported by some companies were much smaller than in pre ceding months, notably in the case of Union Pacific, which, of course, was affected by the San Francisco earthquake and fire. Pennsyl vania for the first time in many months shows on the lines east of Ptttsbnrg a large falling off in gross receipts for the month of April and a moderately heavy decline in net earnings, though on the lines west of Plttsburg there was a large gain, both in gross and net. For the four months of the current year gross earnings of this road amount to 143,540.209, as compared with $37,050.80 i» In the same time a year ago, and net earnings to $11,667,328. against $8,097.- S2S in the corresponding period in 1905, Any decline in railroad earnings at this time is likely to cause unfavorable sentiment In Walt Street owing to the fact that the railroads are now making active preparations to Increase their obligations through the medium of the loan market. The congested condition of the bond market makes it practically Impossible for liivtlct'rs and Brokers. NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. SrXPAY. JTXE & 1906 the railroa-is to put out at present new bond Issues, and as a consequence they are compelled to resort to short time notes, which they hope to convert into fixed obligations at some more favorable period, The demands of the rail roads for money doubtless will be an important factor to be reckoned with In the mone- market for ionic time to come, but it should be borne in mind that these demands are due to the neces sities of the companies which are developing through the expansion of the country's indus tries. The country needs .m. reaped railroad ractl.ties, and it is utt&trstooU that already inn. .. thousand milns of new track*** has Leen contracted for. The reports received in the wetk from commercial agencies were generally favorable, the only adverse feature of Im portance being the moulders 1 strikes in the iron trade. These strikes unve caused enl'or.cea idleneta among many plants, and naturally buyers are now going slow in making purchases. The general iron and steel business, however, continues in fair volume, and consumption ol most lines appears uninterrupted. BOND MARKET SALES. 6500 Japanese -• BSH 7. <») L.
