Cu,c.nO Hay 10.-The brilliant weather
tbronoboio the west seemed to dazzle If not
SemoTaISe the bulls to-day. There was
n marled improvement in the wheat crop
ontlcJk during the twenty-four hours, the
rsi.s in Continental Europe appeared 10
i've greatly relieved the situation there. All
.eports from the northwest indicate vast
improvement in weather conditions, with
seeding going on rapidly and approaching
completion All this. taken in connection
with the Wall street decentralization and
the general distrust of finances, made the
bull crowd nervous and hesitating and
there was free selling and not much de-
mand. Longs made haste TO unload aud
shorts displayed more activity than for
some days. But the bulls did not have 1t
all their own way. On the break the
shorts took profits and the Michigan re-
port was said to show ten points decline
during the last month. The government
report this afternoon was reported to make
a very unfavorable showing, as it would
only deal with conditions up till to-mor-
row. English cables were firm and it was
reported that the English crop was in
jeopardy, as they had had no good rains
there for ffty-seven days. The market
turned very strong the last hour on the
sensationally higher Berlin and Paris
cables. Corn was weak at the start.
