Featarea of the Trading; and Closing
Prior oa Board ( Trade.
CHICAGO, May II Attempts to -cure
week end profits crowded down
tha price of wheat In the last hour to
day. The decline was partly Influenced
by a prospect of large world shipments
and of bearish figures regarding the vis
ible supply. Cloning quotatlona were c
lower to He up, compared with last
night. Corn showed a net loaa of t Ho
to HO He. and oata a decrease of HWSc
but hog produots were little changed ex
cept May pork, which waa nominally 87 Vc
harder to get.
The wheat market was full of ups and
downs, taking the day aa a whole and
proved a much broader affair than usual
for Saturday. In particular selling as
sumed a lively form at the outset and
again toward the end of the session. Dur
ing the Intermediate time, leading bulls
flicked up all offerings and there was
n conaequence a rise which at on point
lifted prices well above yesterday'a cloae.
Efforts which many longa mad to take
profit rendered a final decline Inevitable,
though the tone at the end waa called
ateady. July ranged from 8H4e to 90 Ho
and closed at IKc, a net loaa of Ho
Fine weather and a belief that larger
marketings from the country are oom
Ing aoon held corn back July fluctuated
between 52V.0 and 62 fee, closing Sir Ho
net lower at 62 He Caslv grades held

Favorable report In regard to the
growing crop led to an easy feeling In the
oata pit. High and low polnta for July
proved to be 344o and SSfcc, with latent
aales, 83c. a decline ot Wo from last
Bight
On little or no trading May pork was
ofered down 110c. then bid up $1.60 and

NEW YORK, May IS (Special Tele
gum ) Whatever nmv the prospects of
the stock market, and on this subleet
orlnlon in somewhat divided, the Immedi
ate situation Is one r.t such dullness and
arathy that It would be. ludicrous If it
were not so sad for the- men in the street
themselves.
Huslness for the week has been on the
same dead level of stagnation ss has ex
isted for so long that brokers can hardly
remember when times were good and
money flush.
The Kradstteet Index number of average
American commodity prices as of May 1,
published today, showed the fourth con
secutive monthly decline of the present
year, fixing a level of 8 per cent under
Isst May snd tht lowest of any month
since July. 1900. This contrasts oddlv with
the Economist' Ihdex number of the Eng
lish average, which last week showed the
third progressive monthly advance of 1911,
a rli"e of nearly 6 per cent, as compared
with a year ago, and the highest actual
figure since the middle of 1107. It must
be remembered, however, that the trend
of prices on the two commercial markets
was equally Inconsistent during our re
cent period of price Inflation England's
average then declining, while our own
moved up.
They Are All Optimists.
In Its present rather Interesting division
of opinion, the business community msy
be classified Into optimists, who sre a de
cided turn for the better some months off.
In response to Important underlying In
fluences, and pessimists, who see both In
snrfsoe phenomena and In fundamental In
fluences little to mitigate discouragement.
The prudent man will approach both po
sitions thoughtfully and respectfully
It Is possible thst one or the other will be
entirely wrong, but It Is also possible that
each may have grasped some fundemental
truth and that the outcome may be nild
wav between the two predictions.
The brightest liarvest prospects recorded
thus far this season, and, for that matter,
In any previous season for years, were
logically regarded In financial circles as a
highly encouraging feature of the situa
tion. Ordinarily under uch a condition
at this psrtlculsr time, when crops are
generally the paramount factor In, trade
and speculation, the stock market would
have responded with activity and Improve
ment, but nothing of the kind took place,
for the reason that harvest prospects were
weighted with a number of ' unfavorable
Influences, ome of which were unex
pected. Two Road Cnt Dividends.
Prominent among these were the'reduo
tlon in the Boston Maine dividend from
a 6 to 4 per cent basis and that of the
Vandalia from a 6 to 4 per cent basis, both
of which had without difficulty maintained
their rates after the panic. This opened
up the possibility of reductions by other
companies after a considerable period of
regular payments where lessened declara
tions had been expected because of the
contracted gross earnings and Increased
operating expenses.
Then there was the resumption of the
rangulnsry conflict In Mexico, whereas
only last wek peace was expected in con
sequence of the armistice agreed upon,
unfavorable railroad statements amounting
to a decrease of 9 per cent gross t,he lai
week of April and decreased general trade
and a loss In the April unfilled tonnage of
the United States Steel corporation of
228.500 tons. Added to this Hat was the
adoption by the democratic caucus of
resolutions In favor of free wool, later
modified, and the Investigation of the
American Sugar Refining company and the
near approach of another decision day In
the supreme court.
Effect ( Influence.
Tha effect of all of these Influences upon
the stock market, however, was more In
the ahape ot decreased trading than In tho
matter of price movements. This wat
shown In a fall In the average daily trans
actions to 187,000 share from 400,000 last
week and from SOO.OU) laat year. The de
cline In the general run of stock was
extremely moderate In the earlier days ot
the week and when the market swung
back later on It quickly returned to the
average of a week ago, with some leading
properties even higher than then.
Investment business again this week
made a far better showing than specula,
tlon, as bonds were not only firm but
there was an excellent distribution to
Investors and Institutions, such as savings
banks and life Insurance companies. Trans
actions on the Stock exchange made an
approximation to laat week' total and on
the outside there has been a good demand.
It la confidently expected that new Issue
aoon to be brought forward will meet
active participation by the public generally.
Tone of Market la Weak.
The Stock exchange went through the
formality today of doing business. Neither
from the standpoint of the trading done
nor in the change In price was much ac
complished. The tone of the market slightly
weakened, but the genera) run of price
howed stock closing about a they did
a week ago.
Two months ago the popular notion was
that all of the Illness of business could
be traced to the delay in the Standard Oil
and American Tobacco decisions, but this
belief haa gradually worn away until it
1 now confined to those people who think
the whole country revolves around Wall
street, and what Wall street thinks so must
the rest of the nation do. There ha been
nearly aa much reversal of opinion In this
matter a over the effect of the interstate
commerce decision against an increase In
railroad rate, which the majority of rail
toad men now believe wa a good thing
for their property.
Bank clearing for the country this week
dhow a decrease of 6.2 per cent. In New
York the loss was over 11 per cent and be
tween 8 and per cent In Philadelphia and
In St. Louis. Boston had a gain of about
1 per cent, Baltimore over 12 per ceit,
Chicago 107 per cent and New Orleans 8
per cent. The largest Increases for the
country are still in the Pacific group,
where San Francisco and Los Angeles have
been running from 10 to 26 per cent ahead
of 1910.
In th Pacific northwest, however, there
has not been so much activity. Some cities
In tha south also show large gain over
last year, but Ihe decreanei at St. Louis
onng aown in total for this group below
1910.

CAT'l LK There were only about tour
cars of cattle In th eyards this morning,
which was not enough to mak a market.
For the week receipt hav bean quit lib
eral, showing a gain of over l,wu head
oer last week and being the heaviest ot
any time since three week ago, also fully
as large as one year ago.
During the early part of the week re
ceipts were large, both here and at other
market points and packers were able to
lorce prices down to some extent, heavy
beef steers being In some cases fully 100S
15c lower than th previous week. During
th latter half of th week they put on
about what hey took off. ao that t the
oloe the market la not very dlfterent from
what It wa one week ago. Handy llgiu
cattle of good quality are tully aa high a
they were last week; If anytnlng a Utile
stronger, while rough, heavy caul might
poHibl be a Uttl easier.
The market on cows and heifer haa
been In fair shape all week, the demand
having been good, while receipt hav ben
by -no means burdensome. The demand,
however, has been the most active for heif
er and light cow on th heifer order.
Heavy and rough cows, on th other hand,
hav been mora or lea neglected, and they
ar hardly as good seller aa one week ago.
V eal calves have been In very active at
majid throughout the week and ar 25fr60c
higher than last week; bulls and stags
have also shown a little Improvement.
Haroiy enough atock cattle or feeder
hav been received any day this week to
make a market, but at the same time th
demand ha been very slack, so that
prices have not shown any Improvement.
On th contrary the feeling wa weak and
anything like liberal receipt would un
doubtedly have brought about a lower
range of price.

HOGS No vary startling change wer
mad in tha acala of hog prices lb I morn
ing. The market opened strong on a
seventy-car supply and closed weak, bulk
selling on a generally steady baala. De
mand waa at no tlm active and It re
quired work oq th part of sellers to plac
ottering.
Weights held at usual spreads and
butcher made up bulk. Rough and un
even grades proved especially slow, but
lard otferings were not avoided where good
quality existed. Shipper operated cau
tiously, less than ten load being sold to
speculative buyers.
Drag strings tanged from 85.906.00 and
-t-.olce bacon animal reached So 10. Thl
flgur 1 a split nickel higher than yester
day's top, aa well a 35c abova th ex
treme price of a week ago.
On all day thl week the hog trade ha
been either ateady or higher than the
previous day. Raceipt of smaller volume,
but still seasonably large, hav had a
stimulating Influence upon demand, so that
It ha not required very much effort to
make clearance!. Current price show net
advance of about 30c for th week.

but thtrlr attitude changed at Tuesday s
opening and orders were filled with some
show of urgency throughout th rest of

better competition and both iheep and

while sheep ar quo tab! about a quarter
higher.

able average and Included a liberal run
of wouled Mexican lamb. Thl class of

money at hand apparently for good In-

Advantage wa taken of the revival In
bonda to market quite a number of block
which had been authorized In f 01 mer year,
but for which there had been no deqtiat
demand The May rtlmd financing I
also likely to be fairly heavy, provided
the supreme toutt dots not pieclpuat de
moralisation. Th foundation of the bond market I,
of course, money. Now, money Is pouring
into New York In far larger volume than
outlets can be found for It on the stock
t xchange. The dally Inquiry for call loan
Is abnormally light, time funds cannot bo
put out I11 any exten.-lv quantity even at
th bid quotation, the supply of high
grade mercantile paper Is restricted be
cause of quiet trade and the keen demand
for short-term notes has greatly dimin
ished the floating supply. There remains
stocks and long term bonda. Bankers and
bioker agree that the public cannot be
Induced to purchase storks, no matter
whether pt Ices go up or down, o bond
re In better demand and the indication
re they will be ln at 111 better demand a

Mock Brokers t'nt Kxpenses.
On ftatur of the dullness In the stock
market I the closing by a number of tock
exchange houie of expensive up-town of
fice. Current commissions would not py tho
charwoman, to ay nothing of th cotly
incidentals of running a brokerage business
amid luxurious surroundings, where money
Is spent lavishly. It 1 all very sad. Yet,
somehow, the public can look upon the
trobulcs of Wall street biMker with a mini
mum of sorrow. There Is ort of feeling
tht brokers re enemies of th public and
that their aflllction are th work, of
providence, ln seeking way and mean of
reducing the cost of living, the upkeep of
ro many gorgeously appointed brokerage
establishments ha been eliminated.
According .to return peclally compiled
by The Journal of Commerce the total

tion this month will amount to 93,6il7,W6,
against S7,64.3i7 In May a year ago. The
April figures were 3146.971.610. Of next

compared with S33,4tl4,327 and S64.500.0tXi re
spectively last year. A number of com
panies will pay Initial or extra dividend,
while some concerns will mak disburse
ment on an enlarged capitalisation. A
few corporations havs changed their divi

payments are noted In several Instances.
At the same time It should be said that
the returns ar more complete than In 1910.
The heavier Interest payments ar due to)

"The German Block market absorbs evrjr
year considerably mora than 8710.000,000 ot
new securities, ot which 10 to SO per cent
are of foreign origin," th Deutsche
bank. "These foreign Investment hav
become a necessity for German' economio 1
system. Frequently, and especially ln time
when high rate of interest prevail, such
securities prove serviceable in adjusting
Germany's financial relation with foreign
market. Notwithstanding a few regret
table losses, which were u stained more
than twenty years ago by reason ot th
nonfulfillment of obligation assumed by
foreign governments, the average result of
German Investments In foreign seourttlea
I exceedingly favorable, and, aa can b
shown, ha enhanced the national wealth
by many hundreds of millions of marks.
Although our activity In Issuing new se
curities ia principally and preferably di
rected toward domestio Issues, th
Deutsche bank, after careful Investigation
and deliberation in each Instance, ha par
ticipated In the Introduction of a moderate
amount of foreign securities, and may
point to the fact that for a long period of
year not a single security of foreign
origin which It haa Introduced at German
tock exchanges ha been In dl,tra."
April Stock Dealings.
Transaction In stock on th New York
8tock exchange in April amounted to 6.067.-

cipal life lnsursnce companies In New York
have aold securities to the extent of S.10.-

na entailed no appreciable strain upon th
market. But a these companle still hold

be depressed wer the whole to be liquidated
between now and the end of 1911, the data
set for the closing out of these accounts.
Shares of financial Institution would suf
fer most, a the railroad and other ecui
Itie now carried do not reach an enormous
total. The Equitable, for example, has lee
than $10.0t)0.0u0 par value of "railroad and
other bonds and stocks" apart from bank
gtccks. th par value being slightly In ex
