NEW YORK STOCKS.

NEW YORK, May 1.-The close of the
weeks trading was marked by the same con-
ditiOn Of apathy and almost of stagnation
which has characterized the market all
through the week. This was accentuated by
the fact that today was holiday on the Lon
don exchange and by the definite announce
ment from Boston that the shipment of gold
to Europe on Tuesday next by house there
would be increased to $1,000,000 The market
was left freely in the hands of professional
traders and was without feature of general
interest. The prevailing dizziness was accom-
panied by the heaviness Of inertia, and prices
sagged even on the limited offerings Of
shares. A few individual properties were
subjected to special unfavorable influences,
and the general market showed itself sensi-
tive to the sympathetic effect Of these, though
the fluctuations were within narrow compass.
The average decline for the day was some
thing over Is. The grangers were rather
heavier than the general list, the decline in
that group, In the case of Northwest, extend
ing to q. The coalers were pretty well held
outside Of New Jersey Central and Reading,
the former losing % net after an initial rise
of n. Tobacco fell only Is. in face Of the
announcement of the withdrawal from the
directory of prominent interest. The largest
losses were in the specialties. A point each
for Tennessee Coal Iron and Brooklyn
Union Gas, the former on reports of prospect
i've labor troubles. Western Union declined
further Is to 76B, and Sugar lost *. The
only net gains in the list were in Leather
preferred ON covering. Pullman, Lackawanna
and Consolidated Gas, each of which rose ~.
The market closed unsettled and irregular.
The total sales Of stocks today were 500
1900; Tennessee Coal, 5000; Western Union,
5,10O.

LOOSE SAND STOPS BULLETS.
Tests at Sandy Hook
Prove Surprise to officials.

-
NEW YORK, May 1.-The tests Wed
nesday at the government proving
ground on Sandy Hook determined be-
yond doubt the superiority of sand as
a cushion for stopping revolving explo-
sive shells moving at a great velocity.
The experiments cost the government
about $4,000. The erection of the par
apet alone necessitated an outlay of
between $1,000 and $4,000, to which the
expense involved in firing the big guns,
when added, increases the total several
thousand dollars. It was the first time
such tests have been made in this coun-
try.
The experimental fortress was a mass
of solid concrete, fifty feet long, twenty
feet thick and about fifteen feet high.
This was banked in front with sand
taken from the beach near by and
heaped up until it had reached thick
ness of about fifteen feet. One-half of
the cement rarapet was protected with
sand encased in gunny sacks, the other
half with loose sand. The sacks were
piled one upon the other, much after
the fashion Of building temporary
levees on the banks Of Western rivers
in times Of floods.
The range at which the firing was
done-ffty yards-was remarkably
short one, when it is remembered that
eight, ten and twelve-inch guns were
used These guns were mounted on
high carriages, so that the muzzles
were on level with the top of the
parapet The muzzles were then point
ed downward, so that the point of i'm
pact was about the middle. of the sand
heap.
None of the shells fired into the side
protected by loose sand came out, a
fact which demonstrated the superiority
of that method of construction. The
loose sand at the conclusion Of the fir
ing was not nearly so badly scattered
as was that in the sacks. The cement
wall was in no way injured.

CHICAGO, May Rain in California and
favorable weather. present and prospective
for spring wheat seeding, together with an
absence of export demand were the inf1u-
ences under which wheat declined 1bc for
July today. Other markets followed the same
course, corn declining Sc, oats about the
same and provisions 21a@10c. Wheat started
easy at slight decline on the rather tame
response Of the foreign markets to the good
advance here yesterday and the heavy re-
ceipts In the Northwest July opened at ny
@719sc, compared with yesterdays closing
price y 71%c and, under liquidation, which
starte, at once, 1t was hammered down to
nAc. Then the market turned, and in half
an hour July had climbed up to 721s@72Ac,
the highest point touched during the session.
The deliveries on May contracts were con-
spicuously small, the total not exceeding So
600 Blu. 1t has been many years since such
small figures have been seen, and bulls were
quick to seize the advantage which this fact
gave them. After that furry, however, the
market commenced to sink. 1t was the same
old story, dull trading, and what little there
was, being mostly selling on the advance.
BY II O'Clock July had declined to TIC.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported 435 cars,
against 3S9 a week ago and 301 the CORE
spending day of the year before. The Liver
cago receipts were Is car loads. Argentine
shipments for the week were $4,000 blu,
against $4,000 blu a year ago. Country ele-
vator stocks in the Northwest, which a month
ago were reported at $500 600 blu, were given
today as only $500, 900 bu. A bullish Mis-
souri, crop report was received about II
o'clock, but had very little effect, rally Of
only sc resulting. The market then again
sagged, finally getting down to 7014c shortly
before the close. The closing price was 7O9sc.
Bradstreets report of wheat and -four ship
ments for the week, from both coasts, put
them at 1,l5SSS6 bu, against l. 654, 900 blu the
week before and 600 bu a year ago.
Corn was weak with wheat and better
weather in the West. Exports for the week
were 1861, 600 blu. July opened shade lower
at 25AQ25asc, sold at 253s@251ac and declined
to 25c, where it closed. Oats were weak. July
opened unchanged at 17%@1Sc and declined
to 171a, closing easy at IT'S. There was
small provision market. AT the close, July
pork 214c lower at $780, July lard about
&c lower at $4.171s, and July ribs about 1Oc
lower at $465 bid. Estimated receipts Mon
day: Wheat, 10 cars; corn, 200 cars; oats, 263
cars; hogs, 80, 900 head.
The leading fuIures ranged as foIlows.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 1.-The local wheat
market opened fractionally lower this morn

although cables were higher and encouraging.

done in the way of delivering May contracts
In Chicago. Shortly after the opening the
market rallied a little, but soon lost strengN
and ruled weak throughout the balance of
the session, scoring net loss Of lie by :45
a. m. Crop news was very contradictory, and
was, as one trader expressed it, enough to
drive man crazy with fear" for actual re-
suits in the hereafter for some of the would
be experts. On the theory that no news is
good news somebody might possibly draw sat
isfaction from such day as this. Com
mercal gossip very meager and what
there was Of 1t was conflicting which left
the operator on the ragged edge of indie
cision; hence the nervous course of the mar
ket today. A dispatch from Springfield, ILL.,,
reports that the damage done to the chop
has been greatly exaggerated and that the past
week shows an Improvement sufficient to
check farmers from blowing up the autumn
that rains have fallen throughout the state,
causing weak wheat market. Other ad-
vices, however, stated that the rains were
not general, and that where the wheat grows
ers are good. New York advised that for
eign buying was disappointingly small, and
scattered at that. .Clearances for the week
