New York Stock Market.

New York, May 5.-Today's market
was reactionary throughout and very
many stocks showed a loss Of a point
gain Of yesterday being for the most
part lost. The activity of the dealings
was also considerably diminished as
compared with yesterday. the total of
the shares being some sc, 900 less than
yesterday. Near half OF the sales were
Sugar and Chicago Gas. Outside Of
these, Western Union was the only
notably active stock on the list. The
Gould stocks, all of them, and the coal
ers were depressing influences in the
market to some extent, the former
seeming to be toally lacking in re-
siliency until the final transactions of
the day, when they rallied a fraction.
There was what looked like liquidation
in all Of these stocks and many rumors
bearing on his were set afoat to help
on the decline. The turbulent rush TO
cover Of the shorts last night left that
interest largely depleted in today's
market and there was no resulting
pressure to buy. There was besides the
natural reaction from yesterdays up
ward rush on profit takings. The low
er prices of Americans in London help
ed the decline to some extent, though
not fully to the London parity, until
hat market had sold several thousand
shares of the leading international
stocks in this market. These were all
contributary causes to the depression;
but the principal motive Of the selling
was undoubtedly a modification Of the
view held yesterday that the tariff bill
was assured of a speedy enactment into
law. Reports found currency early in
the day Of expressions Of dissatisfac-
ton with the bill by prominent mem
bers of the house of representatives
and especially of determined hostility
to schedules which are viewed with
most interest in Wall street. Seeing
the tenderness of the market, the trad
ers embarked upon a selling movement
TO discount the defeat Of the Anglo
American treaty in the senate, the vote
upon which was not taken when the
market closed. There was no evidence
in this of any deep seated timidity on
the part of capital lest the defeat of the
treaty should lead to international
complications. 1t was rather a
maneuver Of present traders, which
was effective il a narrow market and
which was based on a supposition that
London will sell American securities on
the defeat Of the treaty. The day was
marked by a further decline in the
rates of sterling exchange, demand
touching $4.S1. and sixty days A.s52
and the consequent subsistence of ap-
prehension Of further gold shipments
on Saturday, which are now considered
J highly improbable. Rumors of an

Treasurer Gage Keeps in Force His Re-
trOactive Order.

Washington, May st is understood
at the treasury department hat the
action Of the senate committee in cut
ting out of the house tariff bill the
retroactive section providing for the
liquidation of the duties on imported
goods purchased after April 1st., on
the basis of the rates to be fixed in
the pending bill, will not necessarily
result in the revocation of the depart
ment's order requiring samples or
other evidences of the character and
value Of the goods to be retained pend
ing a final settlement. On the contra
ry it is believed that the order will re-
main in force until the final passage of
the bill. There is no evidence showing
that the senat is not in favor of the
provision. and inasmuch as the house is
likely to insist upon its retention, the
treasury officials do not feel justified
in destroying its effect by failing to
keep a proper reCord of the goods i'm
ported under it.

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

Washington, May 5.-The weather
bureau in it's review of crop conditions
for the week ended May 3rd, says:
Throughout the states of the Gen.
trial valleys the week has been too cool
for termination of seeds and rapid
growth of vegetation. The light rain
fall in states of the upper Mississippi,
Red River of the North and Missouri
valleys has, however, afforded favora-
BILE opportunity for farm work which
has been much delayed in consequence
of excessive rains of previous weeks.
In the southern states the corn crop
is we'll advanced. The early planted
being in silk and taSSel. In the states
north of the Ohio and Missouri rivers
planting is much behind as compared
with 1894, When at this date planting
was in Progress as far north as Mich
igan.
Winter wheat is in promising condi-
ton in the middle Atlantic states and
generally in the southern states. Some
further Improvement is reported from
Ohio, southern Illinois and Missouri,
but, as previously reported from the
New England states, much of the crop
has been Winter-killed to such al ex-
tent that fields were plOWed up for
other crops. In southern Kansas and
Oklahoma and generally throughout
the southern states wheat is now head
ing.
Louisiana cotton has been unfavora-
bly, affected by cool weather over the
central and eastern portions of the cot
ton belt and has also suffered cOnsid-
erably from insects, and much replant-
ing will be necessary. Planting con-
