WEEK IN WALL STREET.
Startling slump In Daily Business .
Marked Feature.

NEW YORK, May 81.-Bradstreet's
financial review tomorrow will say: At
the beginning of this week the transao-
lions at the stock exchange fell off in
way which gave Wall street not a little
anxiety. The foreign markets were
closed on Monday for the Whitsuntide
holiday, which partly accounted for the
extreme dullness, but apart from this
there was every evidence that the Arneri-
can public had liquidated the main part
of It's speculative holdings and was In
disposed at present to take further part
in the proceedings. The heavy decrease
in the New York bank loans shown by
the two last clearing house statements
afforded striking evidence as to this and
as to the effects of the recent severe
blow the speculative market had receiv-
ed. 1t would seem, however, that the
liquidation necessary under the circum-
stances had been finished and that the
losses incident to the Northern Pacific
corner were in the main adjusted. Some
anxiety made itself felt in this latter
connection as to the position Of the
London short interest. though 1t would
seem that the amount and importance OF
the latter mad been exaggerated The
most cheering indications which the mar
ket received was, in fact. that settle
ments were being made with the London
bears in Northern Pacific at $50 for the
stock, and that the fortnightly account
which begun on Wednesday was being
carried out without the dreaded compl
cations. Up to this time our market
dullness was attended by heavy tone
in the general list in spite of the firm
ness of few issues in which man.pula-
ton and reports of coming deals had an
effect. The bearish operators were also
more active and the appearance of the
market justified 70 Soma the
pectation Of further decline. More
favorable indications at London had,
however, a good influence which was
supplemented by decided limitations that
the eontending factions in Northern Pa
cifc had reached a satisfactory settle
ment as to the control of that company
and the bearings of the Burlington deal
