CURRENT FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
Brlrf Revicvc of <he Situation by a
Wall Street Authority
The New Tork circular of Henry Clews thus
give* the current financial situation:
"The monetary situation has been a source
nf lew solicitude than for many weeks; the
meet unwelcome feature In the situation being
tfce low condition of bank reserves and their
failure to Increase, as - they should, at this
season. It U a welcome fac/ that easier mon
etary conditions prevail throughout the world.
the only exception perhaps being at Paris, where
woe concern le fhown over the Rnssian situa
tion. There Is little prospect of gold exports
from this Kide at the moment, end. this country
is now well supplied with an abundance of cir
culation. It i* not a scarcity of money from
which we are Buffering, but rather an exhaustion
of the floating supply of capital which has been
turned too rapidly Into fixed forms. Our cir
culstteg medium is now about $2,900,000,000. an
Increase of over $200,000,000 compared with a
year ago. The circulation per capita on May
1 was over $34 per bead, the highest on record,
end compared with about $27 per capita in 1900.
HEAVT RAILROAD TRAFFIC
•"Our railroads are still heavily taxed with
freight, traffic managers all over the interior
being hopeful in their views regarding business.
Their chief problem Is that of properly handling
the traffic which presses on them. In the month
of March 71 roads reported gross earnings of 8
r»r cent ahead of the enormous traffic of last
year. The companies ere therefore still under
tb# urgent necessity of providing better facil
ities. In providing the latter they are seriously
handicapped by two considerations: First, the
great Increase In expenses; and second, the dif
ficulty of securing capital except at high rates
of Interest. In the matter of expenses on the
\u25a0hove reports It is noted that they Increased
is per cent over last year, causing a decrease of
over 2 per cent In profit*. This tendency towards
diminished profits is today characteristic of our
business enterprises- It Is not confined to rail
roads alone, but Is rapidly entering Into in
dustrial and mercantile operations, owing, as
stated, to the high cost of commodities and
labor. The railroads are really facing a serious
problem — that of providing Increased facilities
when profits are diminishing and rates of In
terest advancing. Under ordinary circumstances
they wocld reconp themselves by an advance
In freight rates, but the present state of public
opinion renders such a policy wholly inadvisable.
In consequence, the roads must postpone con
templated Improvements, as far as practicable,
and confine them to those which are absolutely
necessary."

Xew York Stock MarKer
KEW TORK. May 15.— There was a sho#
lived period of animation in the stock market
today. This followed the appearance of a pub
. Jisbed abstract purporting to give the substance
of the forthcoming report of the Interstate com
merce commission on the results of the Inquiry
Into the Harrtman railroad combination. The
••baracter of this alleged document was severe
In Its strictures upon conditions revealed by the
Investigation, and some drastic recommendations
\u25a0were included looking to the correction of ex
isting abuses. The substance of the report and
the nature of the alleged recommendations con
tained nothing that has not been, the subject
of stock market discussion and of professed
epprehension ever since the sensation created
by the testimony before the commission, the
feeling reaching Its most acute stage In the .
h»sgbt of the March panic in stocks. Stock >
market go6slp since that time has arrived at
a comprehensive solution of the problems to 'be
presented by the tneaEures for the dissolution
of relationships In the Harrlman combination,
which was to result In the distribution of . val
uable rights to stockholders to share in the
assets thus prohibited to the corporation. This
•Uegnd settlement resulted In a vigorous rally
In Union Pacific In the ' March panic Never
theless, professionals seized with rapidity on
the revival of the original factors contained In
today's publifation and forced a rapid decline
1n prices, led by Union Pacific itself. The
Iste recovery in the market was dne partly to
covering of shorts and was significant of the
lilghly professional character of the Belling on
the decline.
The same Influence kept Canadian Pacific com
paratively firm all day after the sharp decline
\u25a0 of recent days. National Lead was marked np
briskly to the accompaniment of rumors of an
Intended Increase In the df^dend rate. Some
of the other metal and mining stocks also
showed strength pn account of trade conditions.
There was no important change in money con
ditions.
Bonds were heavy. Total sales (par value).
$1,004,000.
United States bonds were anchanged on call.

Fnture Grain' and Provisions
CHICAGO", ' May IS.— -Renewed \u0084 profit ; taking
caused a decline of more than 2 cents per bushel
today In the : price \u25a0of i the '-. leading . options of
wheat' Today's \u25a0 market, unlike that of yester
day, -failed to recover from tha fresh setback,
cloßhig - prices being . at ; almost the I lowest • point
of \u25a0 the day compared " with the previous T day's
close. Final quotations on ' the July option was
2%c lower. ; September was down 2%@2V4c and
December was off 2%@2%c. " July corn, was up
%c. Oats Bhowed a net loss.of-JiQ^c. Pro
visions were 15<g20c lower. " ,
Tradhig In the » wheat ; pit lacked j spectacular
display, but the \u25a0 volume : of business : was - again
exceedingly heavy. The market \u25a0 was under \u25a0 the
domination of the . bears \u25a0 and although 'on . one
or two occasions prices- showed some disposition
to advance, the general 'tendency;: was toward
a lower level.. Profit taking "by local and outside
longs formed a conspicuous, part <of "the selling
movement. The market opened weak with prices
all the., way from.' %@2c lower , than .''the
previous close.- A -decline in. the 'price of .'wheat
on the Minneapolis curb," presumably due to more
favorable conditions for seeding in \u25a0 the Canadian
northwest was the chief ; reason ' for ' the \u25a0-, opening
weakness : " In -" the ' local 4 market. ;; The ' weather
bureau predicted slowly I rising I temperatures for
the spring wheat 'country^ for- tonight .and 'to
morrow, and •: thlsj brought ' out . additional ' sales.
The " September \u25a0 i&d * Decembers options s showed
more - recuperative power . than " did the July ; and
at' one time, the - two more Vdllverles
advanced above ' the | opening ) price. $S During . the
last 10 minutes of trading the market was again
subjected to enormous realizing) sales and \ under
this selling prices dropped to a new low point for
the day. The market closed weak, with only a
trifle above the low market. . July - opened %@
l%c lower at 94@95c, ' sold . off', to 93% c and
closed at 92%@92%c* September r opened %@
W?4c lower at 95%f5'93?4c. sold between 96 % c
and. 96'ic and closed at 95c .-'- December ' opened

closed at the lowest point/ ".-:" :: . \u25a0\u25a0 \u25a0 -'\u25a0-'-'\u25a0
Corn was decidedly strong in the early part of
the day. The market lost ' much * of : Its ' early
strength duriDg the last part of the day because
of the weakness of wheat.; The close,. however,
was firm. July opened -unchanged to %c lower

frosts In - sections \u25a0' of , Kansas, .'but soon i became

The market closed '\u25a0 weak; -.. July opened ' a - shade
