METALS.

NEW YORK. June Except for an
other advance of tin there was nothing
In the way of new feature to the local
market for metals. This advance was
due CHIEFLY to corresponding rise in
London, owing to an unexpected de-
mand from exporters and the slight
falling off in receipts. The close, how
ever, was quiet at best, with $4,000 be-
ing the nominal basis. Pig iron war
rants were weak and unsettled. Lake
copper continues dull and unchanged
on the basis of s16.75. Lead ruled dull
at $3.97R@4.02h. Spelter easy at
$445@4.50. The brokers price for lead
was $3.50 and for copper s16.50Q16.75.

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, June Wheat yielded
very stubbornly to the break up of the
drouth in the northwest and closed
steady, July 1sc under yesterday. Corn
closed 7s@1c higher and oats shade
down. Provisions closed heavy.
When business began in the wheat
pit the srnallness of Argentine ship
ments, $4,000 bushels, was a consid-
Grafton taken in conjunction with the
steadiness of Liverpool. July opened
1sc higher at 671sc to 67Ac, and while
the mood was on, advanced to 67A0
673sc. This was in spite of rain in the
northwest. There were reports early
that the rains up there were general
but the impression grew, despite con-
f1lcting reports that the backbone of
the drouth had been broken. This car
ried July wheat back to 66%c, where
the market steadied and after fiuctu-
ating drowsily slightly above that fig
ure, closed steady at 66B@67c, only
1sc under yesterday There were some
foreign bids accepted here, Antwerp
taking small lot, while New York
reported So loads for export. The dam
age report column was about as usual
except that Kansas noted the pres
ence of lice and Tennessee wired that
the condition there would probably be
reduced from 81 to Is. Trade was
quiet. Local receipts were So cars, one
of contract grade. Minneapolis and
Duluth reported TIA cars, against $50
last week and 53S year ago. Primary
receipts were COL 900 bushels, compar-
ed with $4,000 bushels last year.
Clearances at the seaboard were equal
in wheat and -four to 54S,000 BUSH
els.
The corn market was firm on buying
by some of the old bull crowd, light re-
ceipts and a fair cash demand. Trade
was quiet. Crop reports were favor
able and clearances for the day and
week moderate. Liverpool was weak,
but was an influence here only at the
opening, which was 1s0Ac under. yes
terday. July opened at SIC to $3.50,
and gradually worked up to 371ac,
closing firm 1s@Ac higher at 37A@
1850. Local receipts were SAB cars.
Country offerings, although in some
cases small, were generally reported
freer.
Oats were dull and failed to advance
despite the corn strength because re-
ceipts were large and crop reports
glowing. Receipts here were ATS cars.
July sold between 21asc and 211sc, clos
ing a shade down at 21Ac.
The provisions market was heavy all
day. Hog receipts were heavy and the
recent support from packers was lack
ing. The opening was practically I'M
changed, but following this the mar.
ket sold off sharply and the remainder
of the session houndered sluggishly
around the bottom. July pork sold be-
tween s1120 and s11O0, and closed
171ac under yesterday at s11.05; July
lard between $3.50 and s6.72, closing
7k01Oc lower at s6.721a, and July ribs
between $3.50 and $6.371a, with the
close 71ac depressed at s6.421s.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow:
Wheat. so cars; corn, 235 cars; oats,
265 cars; hogs, $4,000 head.

and the advance was made in face OF
a number OF incidents which would
have been quickly seized upon by the
bears in the lately prevailing temper
| OF speculation 10 force down prices.
To-day, on the contrary, the OUT
standing shorts were eager to cover
their contracts and when they sought
to secure stocks they found very lin
| tied amount offered and the resulting
rise In prices was rapid and sharp
| Whatever the source of demand it was
large and urgent and made It's way
through all offerings with no apparent
doubt or hesitation. 1t was reported
in Wall street that large short ac-
count, amounting to over 10000 shares
Of various stocks was being closed out
preliminary to European tour The
buying in some individual stocks was
attributed to operations by pool. The
facts disclosed Individually by the sur
face indications were that operations
were on a much larger scale than for
some time past and that only liberal
advances in the bidding for stocks
would bring out the desired offerings.
The opening of the market disclosed
mood OF depression over the disap-
pointing effect OF the war news on for
eign markets London sold about as
many stocks in this market as were
bought for that account yesterday and
dragged prices below last nights Level.
The steel stocks, after fractional ad-
vances turned heavy on the news of
the closing down of additional mills
and offered no support to the market
| for the rest of the day. Sugar hung
below last nights prices all day and
was a drag on the market. In fact,
| the strength in the tobacco stocks was
the only notable element of strength
in the industrial department. A num-
Der of reports from April showed gains
in the gross earnings more than WHIP
ed out by increased operating expenses,
bringing the level of net earnings be-
low that of last year. But these reports
were ignored and caused no check to
the upward tendency in the railroad
list. This found its inception in the
granger group and spread to Union Pa
cific, and Atchisons and Missouri Pa
cific. 1t was attributed to the favor
able crop weather prevailing in the
west. Later in the day the trunk lines
came into prominence led by the Bal
timore & Ohios, the common rising
four points and the preferred 25s and
Pennsylvania, Reading first preferred
and Lackawanna rose from 21s to 21a.
The decline in the movement of cur
rency from the interior for the week
was counted as an encouraging factor,
the net receipts by the banks from that
source are estimated at about $4,000
600 compared with over 100000 last
week. 1t is hoped that this will prove
the turning point towards revival of
trade activity in the interior.
The market closed active and strong
at the best.
There was good absorption of rail
road bonds at advancing prices. To-
tai sales par value $1,495,000

NEW YORK, June 1.-The stock
market developed an activity and
strength to-day which has been foreign
to it for many weeks past. The deal
ings were to a large extent concentrat-
ed in limited number OF stocks, but
there was nevertheless a broadening OF
the market and general gains through
out, even in the less active stocks.
The industrials and specialties were
emphatically relegated to the back
ground, and with the exception OF Sugar
and the Tobaccos, there were no not
able points of strength, or features OF
activity in that department. It was q
