points and ruled dull and easy at the de-
cline until the last hour, when continued
covering of shorts and buying by traders
for tie r?i'y led to a recovery of all but
| TO 3 points of the decline. Fear of
cooler weather in the South from the cold
wave in the Northwest accelerated the
covering in the late trading and the mar
ket closed steady in tone. The total sales
were 80, 100 bales
Stocks.-The stock market started off
weak and irregular this morning under
the depressing influence of continued bear
raids against the coal carrying roads,
forcing jersey Central down ~ per cent
to 6S1 and the announcement of the en-
gagement of S2,250,O00 gold for export
by tomOrrOw's steamer and doubt about
the decisions to be handed down by the
United States Supreme court. The whole
market gave way under the pressure thus
brought to bear against it, but the de-
cIines, with the exception of Jersey Cen
trail and Chicago, Burlington & Quincy,
were only fractional and most of the loss
es were recovered before the end Of the
first hour on active covering of shorts in
the coalers by reason of the loaning rate
on Jersey having been bid up to rs premi-
UNI and the gold shipments appearing to
be largely on orders left over from last
week. The Improvement was accelerated
by the announcement of a decision by the
United States Supreme court denying the
authority of the Interstate Commerce
Commission to prescribe railroad rates.
The decision in the Nebraska maximum
freight rate case was postponed by the
court until the next term in October, and
this was also interpreted as favorable, as
it avoids the danger of forcing the Cover
nor of Nebraska to call an extra session
of the Nebraska Legislature and have a
new freight rate bill passed and leaves
the present injunction against the maxi
mum rate law in force. The railroad
men were of opinion that the Interstate
Commissioners would, in view of the de-
cis:on handed down. help them to pass
some kind of pool bill calculated to
straighten out the present tangle in rail-
road affairs In the last hour a general
buying movement for both long and short
account was inaugurated, which contin-
ued up to the close. causing general ad-
vances throughout the list and the ad-
ket to leave off strong and active and
buoyant at the best prices of the day,
showing net advances ranging from "a to
IL per cent from Saturdays close.

New York, May 24.-(Special. Wheat
The market started off firm in sympathy
with the firmer and higher foreign cables
and confirmation of Saturdays less ia

prices had advanced rs to 1ac to 727sc
