ON CHANGE
Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, April S.-The stock ex-
change was open today for the first time
on Good Friday for over thirty years.
When 1t was decided, on Tuesday even
ing. in response to motion, to forego the
usual holiday, 1t was expected that the
presidents message would be presented
to congress on Wednesday, and that by
Friday the shock of war might come. The
resembling of the motion was discussed
when the postponement of the presidents
message was announced. but no action was
taken. As the event has proved, there
was no disposition to trade, the elements
prefering to wait for the development of
the situation.
AS for today's market, business was
trivial in amount and fluctuations were
totally without significance. AS the for
eign exchanges were all closed, 1t was
supposed there might be some business
A large number of brokers shut up their
offices and went home when they per-
ceived the condition Of affairs. Those who
were left on the floor devoted their prin-
cipal energies to sportive devices and
tricks OF hazing on the board members
whose motion was responsible for depriv-
Ing. them Of the usual holiday. Prices
drfted aimlessly below last nights close
and closed above the lowest, but at frac-
tional net losses. Quotations both in the
money and exchange markets were mere
~ nominal; but small additional engage
ment OF gold for import was not sufficient
to indicate that the tide of the precious
metal has not changed.
Bonds were almost stagnant, but showed
declines. Total sales, $500, 900.

Gains in bank clearings for the month
of March are less pronounced than they

a year ago, a gain of 1.6 per cent over Feb

January total, the heaviest ever known.
The gnin in March, 1t will be recalled
compares with an increase in February of
81 per cent and in January of 1877 per cent
Gains In the different groups are naturally
smaller than were those of February, ex-
cept In one case, that of the far-western
group. which shows fractionnlly larger
increase In March than 1t did In the sec

shows the heaviest gain of any section OF
the United Stats. with an increase of 4l.2
per cent over one year ago. The smallest
increase reported Is that of the New Eng

ter OF the present calendar year the total
clcarings aggregate $17I53 100000, $50 per
cent larger than the corresponding period
year ago, In which year there was de-

1896. For the three months period the
middle states group shows the heaviest
gain. AS per cent, other heavy increases

CHICAGO MARKET
Prices and Prospects of the Trade in
Cereals

CHICAGO, April S.-The opening in
wheat was steady, July starting at S3sm
Sac about where it left off yesterday. The
closing of the Liverpool and the continental
markets and nearly all the principal do
mestic exchanges took away from the mar
ket half the usual speculative motive, and
the pit at the opening, and for that mat
ter, during most of the session, was not
more than half filled. Enough bullish news
was to hand to cause moderate demand
to cover short contracts, and as offerings
were even scarcer than buying orders, the
market for time moved upward, July
advancing to S401SlSc from S3A1SS9s, where
it had sold Immediately after the open
ing. Crop news from California was fully
as unfavorable as yesterday, but outside
of this, reports were generally favorable.
The figures on the Argentine weekly ship
ments depressed the market for a time.
Shipments last week were reported at l.
672, 900 bushels, an increase over the pre-
vious week, and this fact caused little
more selling pressure, putting the price
back to 1884. After that, however, the
market ruled strong to the end The Gu
ban situation, so long depressing factor
in wheat. has now apparently become
bullsh influence. Many traders, especially
among the shorts, expressed the belief that
hostilities would result in an advance of
prices, and acted according to their belief
Additional strength was given the market
late in the day by the advance which was
taking place in corn, causing more or less
sympathetic buying and sustaining prices
against the occasional pressure from the
professional shorts and the inevitable liqui-
dation which comes on the market during
periods of dullness. The demand improved
during the afternoon, and the market be-
came quite strong under moderate gen.
eral buying. July finally advanced to S4A
MS47kc, and closed firm at S434c.
There was quite brisk demand for corn
and the market was strong all day. May
closed &c higher
Oats We're dull but firm. May closed &c
higher.
Provisions were decidedly dull. Hog
prices were responsible for an opening de-
cline in provisions, packers being the SELL
ers early. The strength of corn and re-
ports of large government inquiries for
products caused a better demand later,
and the decline was recovered. The close
was steady. May pork was unchanged,
May lard shade higher and May ribs 2iac

aggregate. The belief that quick expan-
sion In all branches would follow greater
liberality and patriotism by the banks is
not wholly unfounded, and the heavy re-
ceipts of gold from Europe count for little,
compared with the greater or less liberality
in loans by banks. Disturbance does not
yet appear, however, and failures for the

Duu's Review

NEW YORK, April S.-Dun & Cos week.
ly review Of trade will say tomorrow:
When everybody is asking whether 1t Is
is not so easy to judge. Since nobody can
judge just how wise bankers may be in an
emergency, there Is some uncertainty, but
thus far scarcely any stoppage whatever
any Indications that the produ3ing force
is likely to be diminished, nor rs any such
symptom to be seen in business reports.
Evidence of existing conditions is not con-
fusing nor unfavorable. So far, banking
conservatism has not caused failures,
which continue smaller than for many
years, as in March, nor has it caused the
stoppage of any Manufacturing concerns,
nor lessened the volume of business re-
ported by railroads in tonnage or clearlngs
at principal points.
The wheat outgo counts for much, and
continues, Atlantic, exports having been
2,241, PIT for the week, against 1,021 ,122 last
year, and Pacific exports 1,226, ,5H bushels,
against 447,5S5 last year. Since corn cx-
ports continue, 3,4S3 $50 bushels. against g.
mand could not be attributed to speculative
agencies. 1t Is fortunate that western re-
ceipts of wheat do not fall short Of an ex-
traordinary gain, but are still 1 1,901, ,315 BUSH
els, against 1,7S9, ITO last year, SO that the
stories Of the nearly exhausted supplies
OF wheat are fables for children. The price
rose steadily and closed &c higher for
wheat with corn 1c higher.
production, compared with corresponding
demands in any other year, however pros
porous, and yet nearly all are keeping al
most their whole force employed. and some
are increasing their forces. In one branch
of woolen manufactures, two carpet mills
have stopped. or are about to stop, as 1t
is between seasons, but much complaint
of cancellation because of higher prices
and possibly in some cases because OF in
ferior qualities has not been followed by
decreased production. Sales Of wool are
insignificant. and prices have declined &c
for finer grades, and over 1c in the average
for all quotations, only because Spectators
wholly underestimate stocks held by man
ufacturers. In the iron and steel industry,
with demands greater than ever before
from general sources, urgent orders from
the government enlarge work but do not
advance prices.
Disasters in trade shown this week BY
separate branches of business for the
month Of March and also the first quarter
of 1898, make the best record that has been
possible for five years. It Is interesting
to note that nearly all branches of business
show surprising improvement. Meanwhile
banks are extremely cautions, and COM
mercial loans are but 10 per cent of their

replying dwelt upon the weakness and
vacillatinE Of the government of Canovas,
which fostered Yankee boldness."
The principal speech WAS delivered by
Senior Romero y Robledo former minister
of justice and leader of the Weylerite
party, who maintained America fostered
the Cuban rebellion and meant war from
the commencement" Senior Morets policy
of autonomy he characterized as a farce
and as absolutely erroneous As for the
Cubans he declared that they did not desire
autonomy and as for the rebels they never
intended TO accept it.
THE present conflict" he continued.
proved the real intents OF the Yankees.
Spain must now face her internal enemy;
and she should not waste single peseta
to give the Cubans autonomy which would
be one step toward independence. The war
requires the energy of all classes to defend
the king and the fatherland."
In the course of the debate a formal
promise was made on behalf of the old
conservatives to support the government
while the present situation continues.
