New YORK. April 27.-The events Of the week
respects. The monetary situation was charac-
terized by ease, especially late in the, week
in excess of the demand: rates for cali loans
ranged from to per cent.
The gold speculation was firm early in the
week. when prices advanced from 1oOh to 1905
on exports of specie to Europe. but the advance
was soon lost and most Of the dealings were at
1OOS
The most important feature IN the govern
ment bond market was the announcement that
the syndicate had taken an additional s. 900 DOC
of the new AZ per cent loan. which is being rap
idly marketed.
Foreign exchanges were firm on moderate
business and prices were unchanged.
The course of Lake Shore speculation was
marked by considerable activity and excitement
at intervals and by wide fluctuations. At the
opening the market was generally strong, but
soon after the bears commenced raid on the
leading stocks. and the market declined to the
lowest nOint OF the week. Prices showed de-
cline of from to 81 per cent. the greatest fall
being in Delaware. La aawana. and Western
Lake Shore and Delaware and Hudson Miehi-
ST. Paul and Northwestern. As the week drew
to a close. there was less pressure to sell. an
the bears became little more timid. Then the
market strengthened, and there was recovery
of II to ~ per cent, in which the granger shares
were most conspicuous.

In the article of Flour there was very little

The stock Of Corn being small prices are firm.
The sales to-day footed UP 1900 sacks, of which
5000 sacks were on private terms.
The early dispatches from Chicago to-day
showed an advance in the price Of Mess Pork,
and our market in that commodity exhibited
much more strength; but subsequent dis
patches indicating weakening up there, our
market receded.. and holders found it difficult
