New York. May 8. Ixnv tempera' ture this week checked tne demand for Igiht wearing apparel In the mar ket already backward and heavy rains started reports of damage to crops. yet there was no evidence of serious injury. Manufacturing conditions show little . change, much-machinery bein idle and new tiuslncss coming forward slowly. Financial sentiment improves as restrictions are removed from commercial orefllts. and sales of bonds provide funds for structural work. Failures decreased in number, while liabilities In April were smaTHr than in any month' since November despite several large fiuspensions of a speculative nature directly due to the sdvance in prices of securities. A few more steel plants have resumed decreasing the percentage of unem ployed In this industry, but new con tracts are plnced with great caution and it is evident that all consumers anticipate more attractive term". Confidence grows in the textile market as stocks in the hands of dealers mecome depleted and it Is known' that the time, must lx enar f"r replenishment There Is a fairly rocd easiness vith clothiers whose sales- business with clothiers whosa ' sales determine the probable outcome ot the season's trade.- ' Shipments of shoes through Boston are- scarcely more than half the week ly figures of last year and the market is quiet and uninteresting.

WHEAT Prices advanced more than three cents today because of active demand based on the government crop report which showed the averago condition of winter tnl acreage 4.2 per cent less than the area reported as having been sown last fall. The report was a big sur prise to bulls an.i bears alike as thp general i expectation had ' heen that It would show an improvement compar ed with the condition a month ag.i; The abandonment of acreage is also larger than had been expected. Im mediately following the -publication-of the report which: occurred . about the middle of the session the demand for wheat became general and prices ad vaiwed steadily until the close which showed July 3 higher.
