EASTERN MARKETS.
Xezv York Stock Market.
NEW YORK. April 2S.— Wall ftreet was In
clined to read the signs cf the day ea naean
trx "a little setback, la oar prosperity." The
market had B.n undertone cf depression which
did not reach to po»ltlve weakness. A wa.it
ln« attitude would be tht proper description.
The rej-ort* of the commercial agencies for
the week, which make tfcelr appearance on
6atur<Jay mornings, caused a feeling that In
dustrial and trade activity and buslmas pros
j*rity were not being fully maintained for the
t!m» being. There are suggestions In various
; ( ;r B that rulls* prices are serving to diminish
cocevimpttoti to an extent that may necessitate
curtallcietit of production and lowering of
prices. The report for March of the Lehigh
Vallny furnished the exhibit of unfavorable re
sults In the anthracite field. The bank etate
zsent, ¦ while a strong one according to the
ordinary role* of Interpretation, created an
unfavorable Impression. Preliminary reports
cf ti;e large Inflow of currency from the In
terior »er« fully coiJlrnied by the statement
ThU movement In view of the ease of money
at thU center rfves fcrce to the suggestion that
tber* Is a failing oS in trade activity. Thi»
view at all events was the keynote of the
Creeping tendency cf prices, to which there
were not sufficient exceptions to afiect the
general tone. The steel Industrials were special
euCerers on reports of Intended competition ty
tie Carnegie Company '.n the field for steel
end wire companies' products and the shutting
<iowa "for repairs" of a plant of the National
Steel Company. The wetk'e increase of loans
Is undoubtedly largely due to borrowing on
¦t*r;ing collateral. Owing to the cheapness of
money here and the relative dearnese abroad
this operation Is more profitable than drawing
tfce exchange. This operation, as well us th»
export cf gold, represents the lending of money
to foreign borrowers as the country's foreign
trade continues to accumulate credits In our
favor. Reports of bank clearings do not war
rant the assumption that the return flow of
currency Is due to dlmlnibhed trade activity.
N«w York and Boston are the oniy important
center* In the country to show a decrease In
cl*ar?n£s for the week, compared with last
y«*s. The flve other leading rtserve cities as
v.e'.\ aa the total for all other cities show in
creases running from i to over 2S per cent.
Tbe true explanation must be tiiat the ex
tension < f bsxk note circulation and the dis
bursement cash by the United States treas
ury fc** overrun the needs of circulation
ana :s forcing funds back Into the Idle re
serves cf banks. Pliers of stocks are rather
higher at tba end of this week than they were
at the end cf the last, after having been con
siderably lower. The amount of support ac
corded to prices and the extent of the demand
*t any reaction In prices na» been something
cf a surprise to observer*. It was feared that
the break !n prices In the Iron trade would In
duce widespread liquidation In securities. Wall
street by tradition locks upon the Iron trade
as an Infallible index of pro^p'-cts for busi
ness conditions. Once established that Iron
and steel production has outrun demand and
that prices have reached a level to effectually
discourage end curtail consumption or that
needs fcr the future have bwn »o far met
as to lead to depression In Iron and eteel and
Wall rtreet is prepared to accept the evidence
as conclusive of a culmination of a prosperous
cycle, with the certainty of a period to follow
of busir.ese reaction and comparative depres
lon - On last Saturday the cut In prices by
American Bteel and Wire Company seemed
to establish the fact of such a condition in
the Iron and eteel trade, and the week opened
In consequence with evidences of general liqui
dation of stocks. The first check to the de
cline came from the powerful support by Inside
Internets in the various ptocks. It became
cuirkiy evident also that in the eteel stocks
themselves the heavie«t liquidation had already
been effected by huld?rs who knew what was
coming and who had not only sold their hold-
Ing* at stocks, but had gone short of the
market at the higher level. Thus It has hap
j;en«*d that the opening rale on Monday morn
ing marked the lowest price In the Iron and
Bteel movement. The eager demand from the
Fborts to rover proved an ample sustaining
force for these stocks. But Wall street be
lieved that after the bears on eteel stocks had
tafcen their profit* there might be a renewed
decline and operators continued to cell. Ru
mors began to circulate that recent confident
predictions of inaugural dividends on some
stocks and lnereaj-^s In others were not well
founded and that the f-peculatlve pools which
had c»'j!"*J th*-**- predictions to be made hsd
sold out their holdings and taken their profits.
Estimates were published of th* Improvements
planned by some of the railroads. Involving such
an enormous outlay sa to threaten the absorp
tion of current Increases in earnings which have
been counted on for disbursement In dividends.
The conditions which were demonstrated 'ln the
Kteel and Wire Company had a strengthening
Influence on the sentiment on account of their
bearing on the queeiicn cf the efficacy of the
pigantlc Industrial combinations of the last
year and a half In controlling trade conditions
co fur afl to lessen th* danger of recurrent In
dustrial depresiflon. The prospect of large ex
l>orts of gold wa« an added factor of depres
sion. The professional bear trade™ fairly
revel«»d in the various reactionary tendencies
and sold stocks at an open hand. They sold
•o freely that their demand to cover short con
tracts developed keen competition. How far
tht demand from this eource wax responsible
for the late rally In the market must wait for
clear demonstration until the further closing
out of speculative ventures and a cessation of
the excessive manipulation Incident to the con
test of speculative forces. The transactions In
Sugar make it appear that the unwary bears
had sold In the aggregate rather more than the
total etock Usue of the company. The necessity
they were under by their contracts of buying
this amount of stock to deliver placed then In
an unpleasant predlc&ment when the flowing
supply had been largely taken up by a bull
pool, who then made the most of rumors that
the sugar war was about to be settled, prices
advanced and dividends increased again. The
violent rl6e In Sugar certificates Induced a
general covering movement among the bears
and their opponents tried to add to their diffi
culties by rumors of favorable developments
bearing en values. The bulls had In their
favor continued large earnings by railroads in
every section of the country except the anthra- \
cite coalers. Strenuous efforts were made to
re-establish confidence In the prosperous con
ditions of the Iron trade, affirming the large
consumption of Iron products and the certainty
of continued demand to meet the needs of pro
jects already entered upon. The problem of
gold exports and their effect on our money
market and etock market, or rather the ex
tent of such effect. Is deferred for a short time
at least. The week's small shipments had lit
tle effect on sentiment.
Activity in bonds has been mostly confined
to special cases where Individual causes aftect- '
ed prices. The market generally was quiet.

Associated Banks' Statement.
? — *
NEW YORK, April 28.— The Financier says:
The excess reserve reported by the New York
Clearing-house banks now amounts to $10,074,
275, j. net gain of $2,179,500 during the week.
The current statement does not acTee In Its
totals, probably for the reason that the tech
nical adjustment of the accounts of the two
consolidating Institutions has thrown it out of
balance. Half the total expansion In loans and
deposits can be traced to this cause.
The principal feature of interest disclosed
by the exhibit is the gain of about $4,500,000
In cash, which resulted from operations with
the sub-treasury and the Interior. The increase
was not as large as was anticipated and Its
effect was lost in part in the gain of $9,443,100
In deposits, the latter returning an added re
serve of over $2,000,000. Loans are $7,075,300
larger. It is not notable that the added cash
holdLngs for the week are traceable to receipt
of legal tenders. This indicates operations with ]
interior banks. One event of importance was
the export of $500,000 In gold by the National
City Hank. This was largely a special transac
tion, but at the same time, with the banks
gaining from all sources. Interest rates will
probably not go higher and exports of specie
are only natural. The per capita circulation
of the United States la now at the highest
point of Its history and is Increasing. As busi
ness Is not expanding proportionately there
is nothing strange in the spectacle of a small
percentage of Idle capital seeking better In
vestment returns elsewhere. It will be useless
to predict the volume which the present export
movunent will assume, if Indeed It continues,
but since money commands better terms abroad
and there is certainly a surplus beyond present
needs here there would be nothing surprising
in a continued movement for some time to
come. But this does not imply weakness or un
favorable trade conditions. On the contrary,
it re\eals the inherent financial strength of
the country- It is not saying too much to pre
dict that exports of gold can be stopped im
mediately If the occasion arises without dis
turbing business in the least. The fact that
the United States has since ISPG absorbed one
third of the entire gold production of the
world and that present supplies are being added
to at a rate exceeding $5,000,000 monthly through
current production is often lost sight of when

Chicago Grain Market.
*;': : ; *
CHICAGO, April 28.— While wheat did not
show any great strength at the opening prices
It started a trifle higher " than , yesterday's
close and the feeling was steady. Liverpool
cables wera a trifle Improved, but were not
considered as responsive to the strength her*
yesterday. There was a fair disposition to
buy, but this disposition took shape in orders
which were scattered and generally unim
portant. The anticipated decrease in the visible
Monday and the fact that more attention is
being paid to bull news nowadays occasioned
a spasmodic advance early, but somebody be
gan relllng, presumably a long line, and the
puny bulge withered up and was blown away.
Liquidation was small, a fact especially prom
inent by reason of the nearness of delivery
day. A little export nibbling was reported and
ignored. There was little difficulty experienced
in changing options at a spread of l%c. May
ranged from 66©66% c to 65% c, and closed %4f s Uo
under at 65Hc; July from 67% c to 67% c, closing
%<?f%e down at 67% c. Feeling at the close
was lioavy,* while the whole session was re
maskable for its lack of action.
The corn market was dull, firm part of the
time, but closed easy. The only feature of the
trade was the early demand for May. "May
