New York. May 1O.-The transactions in stocks today reached the enormous total bonds footed up $5697,OOO This is the larg est days business in years. The buying commission houses being the largest pur chasers. Trading for outside account was on tremendous scale. and in fact it was this fact that defeated the efforts of the sold-out bulls to bring about reaction. The offerings of the professionals were heavy, and at times it looked as if the top notch had been reached, but invariably fresh buying orders, were put in and the market resumed its upward course.
 London also late was heavy buyer, its purchases being estimated at over 50.- 900 shares. It is difficult to obtain the amount of bonds bought, but the best in- formation is that the purchases today for European account will reach at least si, ,0o0, 900 par value. The interest in the stocks displayed the greatest strength, St. Paul.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Chicago Change.


 Chicago, May 10.-The government report was the subject of much controversy on the York sent dispatch to Chicago that owing to some confusion in the reports as to ram the department would be unable to publish the wheat report this morning. This news obtained wide circulation and was the means of causing a decline of 12c in prices A telegram inquiring as to the truth of the report was sent to Washington and reply was received stating that the report would be issued. Values rallied on the denial, but afterwards declined on local realizing July wheat opened from 6412 to 6iAc, de- clined to 63S4 n637sc, closing at 6634QG65sc, 1sc under yesterday. Cash wheat, sample lots, was steady.
 Corn-Commission houses and local oper- ators sold corn very freely today. Some of the traders were more engroSSed in depre- eating values than in disposng of property. Advices from the country were to the effect that some enlargement of the interior movement might be looked for. This, with the lower standard of prices prevailing in corn opened at 503sc, sold between 5l and 6OBQ602c, closing at 509sc, 12nssc under yesterday. Cash corn was hQl2c lower.
 The same people who were selling corn were pursuing similar course in oats. The rading tactics caused the price to lower somewhat, the decline being accomplished without much resistance owing to the weakness of the other cereals. Receipts were 176 cars, and 206 are estimated for to- 5S. morrow 51z Withdrawals from from st9re ore were CT. Cash oats were -Ac lower than yester- day.
 Provisions-The Anglo-American Packing company was the best buyer of provisions today, while the Cudahy company sold. The offerings were larger than the demand could very well absorb, and prices opened at moderate degree. The transactions did not assume important proportions at any time, and a slow market was the conse- quence Hogs at the stock yards were steady to firm, which fact communicated some little strength to product at the open ing, but this soon disappeared, an easier tone succeeding.

Suns Cotton Review.


 New York, May 10.-The Suns cotton re- view says
 Cotton fell 10 to 12 points and closed steady, with sales ssa of TT BOO bales. Liver of only 5000 bales; futures advanced hg1 point. but reacted and closed ha1 point lower and barely steady. New Or leans advanced points, but lost this and clined 10 to Il points. The receipts there tomorrow are estimated at 1500 to 2500 bales, against 22e5 bales last Saturday and 1157 on the same day las year. In Manehester quiet. Spot cotton here was quiet at 1-l6c decline. Sales, 75 bales for spinning. The southern spot markets were dull and quiet. Mobile and St. Louis advanced 1-l6c.
 A house with extensive southern connec- tions had advices stating that there will be a decrease in the acreage in the uplands of the Carolinass. Georgia, Florida and northern Alabama, in spite Of the bureau report.
 Today's features: Of course the great feature of the day was the bureau report, and that was unmistakably disappointing able selling and led to a decline, in which the improvement of yesterday disappeared News from the southern and English mar kets was not encouraging to the bulls Nevertheless there are many here who maintain that the conclusions of the bu- reau report are open to serious question be some reduction in the acreage in the Atlantic states, and that 1t is well to re- member also that even the bureau report acknowledges that there will be some dim Mississippi and Louisiana. They think that the crop has got late start and that it is likely to be considerably smaller than that of last year. Nevertheless there was market closed at very near the bottom fig ures of the day.

Age-Herald Office,

Friday Night May 10. Refined sugar was offered by brokers to- day at 1-16c off, and 1t was reported that the trust price had declined to that extent Authoritative information is to the effect that trust figures are unchanged It is said that the sugar offered at the reduc- tion is the holding of an outside party in Philadelphia who is getting little ner- vous, and comprises about 1000 barrels.
 It is difficult to size up the flour market Some mills have advanced their product 10 cents a barrel; others have reduced on low grades, and several have withdrawn from the market for the present. But it is safe to say that the market is firm and prac- tically unchanged.
 Ribs are off a few points, packers quo- tation, s6.45 same for leaf lard $7371a ; compressed lard, $5.25. On authority of packing house represen- tative:
 The Louisville and Nashville today an- nounced a reduction of cents on packing house products from Chicago, effective the 18th instant. This meets the Kansas Citys cut from the same point, effective on the same date. It means reduction in freights of something over $2O car.
 Grain dealers have not been advised by the Louisville and Nashville of any further reduction in grain rates. The belief, how ever, is strong that rate war to the hilt is on, and it is impossible at present to get quotations.
