FINANCIAL REVIEW.

NEW YORK, June T7.-Bradstreets Finan- cial Review tomorrow will say: A reaction in values occurred early in the week, result ing in more or less liquidation and bear sell ing and somewhat lower prices throughout the share list. The declines except in a few instances, were not severe. considering the ex- tent of the previous bull movement. and the market soon became steady and later in the week gave symptoms of renewed advance and one of the effects of the check to the markets rising tendency was the decrease of public participation, professional manipulation being once more very apparent. London was a purchaser of stocks to a limited extent on the decline, but the active interest in Ameri- generally Is sluggish and narrow. At the end of the week industrials and specialties were the principal objects of the trading

The Western contingent was very heavy seller of stocks other large interests might be involved. which were promptly reflected in the course of prices for railroad securities. Indeed, the feeling of apprehension on this score was not thoroughly relieved until the close of the week, when 1t was apparently established that the losses would fall mainly, if not entirely, on the chief actor in the episode and his backing. In this connection 1t may also be noted that the reports of the continued rains at the West and the damage to the crops have been in- fiuential to the bears. while the continuance of rate-outting, both East and West has also been held up us an unfavorabie element in the situation.

EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, June 1.-The unsettled and waiting temper of speculation was shown no less to-day by the stagnation in railroad stocks than by the disposition to take up different members of the group known as specialties
 Dealings in the railroad list were few and far between, and the only movement of prices was the saggtng tendency almost inevitable in a lifeless market Definite information as to the conditions of the coming crops Is what spectators would most like to have The markets were full of rumors to-day of damage and deterioration to the crops. The failure of thewheat market to reflect any crop damage was attributed to large selling of the accumu- lations of the Letter deal. But coupled with the reports of crop damage, 1t served to con- fuse the speculative mind and discourage opera tions. Money also showed a slowly hardening tendency and sterling exchange advanced on v demand for remittance of dividends and inter est due to foreign holders July l.
