Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, May 26.-The movement of
prices worthy of particular note today was
confined to few special stocks, as was also
a large part of the activity in the trading
The majority Of the list was somewhat dull
and neglected. This was in part due to
the contradictory movements of a few
stocks that showed pronounced activity,
but also to some skepticism over the re-
ported presence of the Spanish fleet in
the harbor of Santiago de Cuba and its
consequent bottling up. The fact of the
matter Is that the market has been ex-
pecting for some time sensational naval
victory. and its failure to respond to the
more prosaic results of successful naval
strategy is a disappointment to the bulls
and gives some encouragement to the bears.
There were, however, very positive ele-
ments of strength in the market, which
served to lift prices at one time quite ma
terially above last nights close. The main
stay of the market was Rock Island, which
rose at one time 21 points. The approach
ing meeting of the directors to act upon the
dividend and the various rumors as to the
rate of the dividend and as to the measures
for the distribution of the surplus were
motives of the buying. A little profit taxi
ing In this stock had not small part in the
reaction In the market. Its early rise was
supplemented by buying for Eondon ac-
count OF the International stocks and by
commission house buying of the Grangers
The local Traction stocks enjoyed their
season of strength as well. Great North
ern preferred rose an additional points,
TO &c. ~; new high level, on the accepted be-
lief that distribution of new stock in the
retirement of the debenture bonds is i'm
mlnent. Realizing in Rock Island and the
Traction weakened the market and almost
Wipeo out the earlier gains in the general
list; Net changes are in consequence small.

CHICAGO MARKET
Prices and Prospects Of the Trade In
Cereals

CHICAGO, May 26.-There was good
deal of excitement in wheat. but the actual
trading was somewhat limited. The senti-
ment of the crowd was unquestionab1y
the danger of bull manipulation held the
selling impulse in check, and as a conse-
quence the business was light in volume.
Letter took hold of the buying side at
up to 1.14k. This made the shorts in Sep
tember and December somewhat fearful
that the prices for those months might
advance in sympathy and there was an
to SO. Later the buying operations of Letter
were perceptibly lessened, and with the loss
OF this support and the unfavorable cables
the market turned weak and the bears be-
gan to show courage and acted on their
convictions The market, near the close
of the session, became very heavy. Letter
continued to hold May and June up, but
July got so much too heavy for the lift
ing power which he exerted in it's favor,
or so slippery in the end from the melting
around of September and December prices,
that it went down in the melee. Texas was
SAID to be offering new wheat quite freely
Tor early June shipment The great over
shadowing fact kept in mind by the traders
was the magnificent crop prospect of the
world, and especially east of the Rockies
in the United States and Canada. Other
wise sentiment would apparently have been
all that the most ardent bull could have
desired. July closed at 110, decline of
"a. September closed at S6A@S6as net
loss of 2h. May ranged between ITO and
LIS.
Bull support steadied corn for awhile,
but this was offset by lack of shipping
demand and the general disbelief in the
theory that the chances for the next crop
have been as yet jeopardized to any extent
by backward weather. The break in wheat
also carried corn down. July closed 101h
lower.
Oats were in good demand and ruled high
er until the break in corn. July closed 3s0lh
lower.
Provisions were firm and strong early.
but they finally yielded some with grain.
Pork and ribs are IS lower and lard 2H
lower.
