PRESSURE TO SELL STOCKS
CAUSES FURTHER EXPANSION.
WEAKNESS BECOJrES JIORE
GENERALLY DISTRIDUTED.
Gold Sliipmcnts and Subscrip
tions to Foreign Loans Ab
sorb Interest of the Da v.
New York. Star 12 There was a further
expansion In the volume of dealing!) In
tho stock market to-day, due to the In
creased pressure to sell stocks, tho weak
ness belnc; more distributed than was the
case yesterday.
Much Influence upon sentiment wai pro
duced by the Imposing dimensions of the
EoJd movement. The May shipments and
engagements for Saturday acgresate more
than K5,000,X. The larscst amount of
cold ever before exported In a full month
rrom New York was In Slay, mi. nhen
K7.iO.oy) vent out. The sustained level
or the foreign exchanxe rate makes It evi
dent that the movement has not Io?t Its
force and estimates ary widely as lo Ita
limits, which have already reached over
21U.0CJ.O0l) since Its inception In April.
A large portion of the Panama Canal
payment remains to be provided lor, and
the current outco evidently Is to meet
other requirements than the Panama
payment.
rOIlEIGN LOANS.
FOr one thins. It Is admitted that to
day's engagement Is in part against :i sub
scription to the Russian loan, which nus
taken yesterday. The steady Inflow ot
Japanese gold to our Pacific Coast has
been an Important offset to New York's
exports. The point Is made, however, that
the subscriptions to tho Japanese loan
here will check the Inflow of gold at San
Francisco by providing funds here for
Japanese to draw upon, while drafts may
be made also upon that fund for pay
ments In Cngland. thus adding to the de
mand for gold exports.
Meantime the Treasury Department has
sent notice of the withdrawal of the final
10 per cent Installment of 40 per cent t
Government deposits with banks on Slay
2i These withdrawal, when completed,
will have taken something like JCo.CW.wj
from the banks. As Is well known, thoe
deposits had been accumulated in New
York In preparation for the Panama pay
ment and have contributed to the pletho
ric condition of tho money market, whicli.
In turn was an Incitement to the enormous
exiansion of the loan item.
Heavy demands for corporation purposes
are still ahead of the money market, it Li
not strange that tho rate at which the
cosh depletion and loan expansion are car
rying tne surplus item towards the van
ishing point should have disturbed the as
surance which has been manlfet-t over the
money market. The stutement of domes
tic exports for April, published to-day. con
tained a gratifying surprise In the heavy
increase in value of cotton exports over
last April, Just serving to onset largely
the shrinkage In values of foodstuff and
relieve tho scarcity of commercial bills in
the exchange market.
CKOP CONDITION.
The gold movement shared In Influence
with the continuing effect of the crop con
dition and declining tendency of the Iron
and steel trade. United States Steel, com
mon, established 11 new low record to-day
and the preferred stock suffered acutely
from the duscusslon of its prospects for
maintaining dividends.
Further reports were received of de
creased railroad earnings. The feeling of
general distrust over the stability of tho
market led to free throwing off of stocks
and sharp breaks In prices in the day.
Late covering by room shorts steadied tne
closlnjr. The rebound in Consolidated Gas
on tho veto of the Kemcn gas bill looked
like a squeezs of shorts.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value, 1I.8M.000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

SUMMARY OFST. LOUIS MARKETS
Wheat values continued on the downturn In a rather listless market. There was
not enough outsljc buying- demand to support future prlcts and nonprofessional senti
ment whs generally be.irlslu Favorable weather conditions cut considerable figtiro In
the day's trading; With sunshine in nearly all sections of the winter belt, there was
little chance for the crop-killers to get In their work. ' There were some scattered
damage reports, but these came mainly from sections which would not cut much
figure In determining the total output. Rerorts of late seedlnc in thft West and
Southwest seemed to Indicate an increase In the acreage under cultivation. Cables
showed little strength and there was practically no foreign demand for American
breadstuff. Professional manipulators helped the downward movement by kcepln;r
thelr hands off the market. This element Is Inclined to encourage the selling. When
the market hits the pec which they have ct they may come In on the buying sido
and give shorts another squeeze. Spe-cula tlve buying ot Slay and covering caused a
fairly large advance in the price of that option.
Corn ngnln wjs stromr on limited buying. Ugiit receipts and fairly good cablca
were thq main bullish Influences.
July wheat opened Uo up and closed ifj'ic off.
July com opened Jic up and closed Uc up.
July oats closed unchanged.
Itccclpts of produce were In fair volume and the prices of fruits and M-sct:ibIc3
were generally easy.
Local securities were extremely dull. Trust company Issues had fair support and
tractions -a ere off.
Yesterday's bank clearings were XJ.III.ra). balances rt,i:S, US. Discount rates wero
steady between Vz and t per cent.
Spot cotton was steady in the local market.
WHEAT AGAIN DECLINES
ON BEARISH ADVICES.
CKOi' CONDITIONS FAVOIt
TUE SELLEKS.
Lack of Outside Support and
Apathy of Professionals Are
the Iiiiliii'' Factors.
TVlth only moderate trading, wheat
values again declined In yesterday's mar
ket. There waa too little professional or
outside buying Interest and too much gocd
weather to Justify an advance. Cables
showed no life, and sentiment was gen
erally bearish. Though there were scat
tered damage reports, these had Httlo
effect In bolstering the market.
