NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, May 3.-This has been day OF
great excitement and depression st tho Stock
Exchange. The sales reached tho large total OF
5S6,651 shares, liduidations having been on a
mere extensive scale than for long time. There
was nothing In tho way Of news TO affect prices
adversely. Sterling exchange was easier and
gold exports by Saturdays steamers are still In
doubt Money was also In better supply TO
Stock Exchange brokers, and the rates OF inte-
rest declined under increased offerings by the
banks and other lenders.
STORIES OF TROUBLE.
The heavy selling OF stocks Ia attributable
almost entirely to tho exhaustion Of margins
and the uncertainty created by rumors In circu-
lation affecting the credit of corporations anu
individuals. The only failure reported was that
OF A. w. Wheeer,'and this was Of little conse-
quence, but the bears, taking advantage OF the
decentralization, started stories about the alleged
embsrrassmentso OF leading operators and banks.
The most 6lligent search after the close OF the
Exchange failed TO corroborate these stories OF
Impending trouble. There Is no donbt, how
ever that many loans on lndustriale wers called
In and that some 1rIns were forced to sell
THE MAREgT sENI-PkSICEy.
Rallies In the market ere frequent but they
counted for little, each aud every recovery
starting the selling movement afresh. The de-
preston was most marked after delivery hour

port IN any 1uAtIeT duu pIlctH uEOppeu Ouc VI

Be Careful.

When you spend money be sure you
spend it to the best advantage. Make
every dollar go as far as possible. To
spend we'll is TO save and to save you
must buy at the right place. The right
place to buy clothing is at our store, No.
