On the wholesale streets yesterday, and

This was more noticeable with dry-goods
houses and the boot and shoe men than
with hardware men. The packing houses
are having a good trade. All descriptions
of hog products in good request. and
prices on most descriptions steady. The
poultry market East is fiat. and this makes
the market here weak. and with this re-

chickens. which are in active demand for
home consumption. Eggs are steady and

to prices gives them opportunity TO know
where they stand each day. Collections are

by means Of sweeping reductions In ex-
penses are no longer favorably received.
The feeling this subject is that in many
cases the roads must suffer In such a pro-
cess. Such was the reception given 70 the
ST. Paul statement for April. showing
loss of 1851 90 in gross and OF only $4,000
in net. The Lake Shore. too, for the March
quarter, reports a gross decrease OF over
100000. while the net is only $1,000 less
than In 1888. Finally, the Pennsylvania, in
It's figures for April. shows a loss OF A,lB,-
476 in gross. the net declining $2sS.2S The
cOmpanys officers are quoted as saying
that the May statement will be OF similar
character, and Pennsylvania shares have
declined in the Philadelphia market. This
tendency of trunk line earnings seems re-
sponsible for the decline OF New York Cen
trail. which was based on reports OF
heavy -hrinkage In earnings for the cur
rent I. Is.h and on renewed limitations of
a redU on in the dividend Short selling
and III, daton OF block OF long stock
seem to have contributed equally to the de-
cline. which carried the price from IS TO

What queer girls there are in New York;
Here is one writing TO me to say that she

thought she loved him until she met

Since that time she has been unable to
tolerate her old lover. She didn't mind

Bradstreers Financial Review.

NEW YORK May 25.-Bradstreets fnan-
cial review tomorrow will say: The short
interest in railroad stocks and the manipu-
lative Influences in charge OF the industrials
furnished nearly all the speculative activity
OF the week While the renewed depres-
sion. which set I'm last week, produced
certain amount OF liquidation. IL APP
parent that the selling represented closing
out OF speculative accounts on the long
side OF the market and that. In the main.
stocks are firmly held Meantime. opera
tons for the bear account had increased in
volume and the short interest by last
Wednesday was ripe for an upward move
ment Occasion for this was furnished by
the tenor or dispatches from Washington
indicating improved prospects for the
speedy passage OF the Senate tariff bill.
and by the action Of the Western railroad
presidents In harmonizing differences and
forming a new organization for the mainte-
nance OF rates. RumOrs that a settlement
OF the coal strike was at hand also had
share IN creating a bullish temper in the
market. and a rapid covering movement
ensued. carrying up prices OF railroad stocks
and affording opportunity for manipulatiye
rises In Sugar aud other industrlals. Lon
don also helped the movement along BY
purchasing a fair amount or its special
ties and the market momentarily assumed
soon. however as the short interest had
been sufficiently reduced. the advancing
tendency disappeared and the market re-
verted into dullness. followed by renewal
OF bearIsh activity, though on Friday. after
