a big improvement, and treated

New YORK STOCK MARKET.


NEW YORK. May s.-LIquidation was quite
general in the stock market to-day and ma
tertal declines prevailed. There was no news
of Importance and disappointment at the bad
showing of the bank statement on Saturday
seemed to color speculative sentiment. Ster-
ling exchange was about steady and money
decidedlv easier. Such rallies as took place
were feeble and in each instance brought out
further sales. leaving the market at the end
weak at about the lowest for the railways,
although some Of the specialties in the late
selling movement retained part of the advan-
t9ge derived on an afternoon rally. Arbitrage
brokers purchased some 2OO9O SHARES during
the forenoon weakness. The market continued
feyerish practically all day. There was forced
itouidation of marginal accounts by commits
SION houses Some important interests let go
stocks on the assumption that rather larger
responsbilities have been taken by certain
deryyriting syndicates. The talk of the forma-
tion OF a new steel trust with a tremen-
dous Capitalization caused uneasiness In some
0uarters resulting in declines OF over points
in Federal Steel shares and over in American
steel and Wire. The Flower stocks were sold
FOR both Western and local account, Brooklyn
Transit losing sA Peoples Gas 3& and Atch-
ison preferred 1$. The tenor of the crop ad-
vices was conflicting but the grangers receded
smartly Burlington losing over points and

Among the coalers Delaware and Hudson and
Jersey Central were down over point each.

New York Central suffered loss of ~ in con,
