BANKER CLEWS' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen From
Wall Street.

Wall Street.
New York, May 23.-Conf1icting in
f1uences have kept the market in an
unsettled condition and caused a mod
crate reaction in values; some shares
displaying considerable weakness and
others excellent resisting qualities. To-
wards the close of the week there was
satisfactory rally.
The conditions contributing to tenn
porary lower prices were gold ship
ments, labor troubles, backwardness of
many important crops, distrust of the
speculation in cotton, the absence or
Illness of a number of important oper-
ators and the spirit of caution which
is still prevalent, often running into
pessimism, amongst a growing class
who are predisposed to take sombre
views of affairs and who no doubt find
more material than heretofore in sup
port of such opinions. On the other
hand we have the well known fact
that about six months of extensive lia-
uidation have been endured without
disaster; most emphatic demonstra-
ton of general financial strength.
Another development of interest and
encouragement is the foreign buying
of American stocks. 1t is to be hoped
this will prove genuine and perrna-
nent. Europe is practically bare of
American stocks, while recent heavy
subscriptions to the TransvaaI loan
demonstrate that now the war is over
funds are accommodating and must be
seeking investment. Nothing better
can be found than the higher class of
American railroads.
Money conditions are not yet salts
factory, although much improved.
Twenty-Five per cent. Of the subscrip-
ton to the new Pennsylvania stock is
payable in June and so per cent. more
in the fall. Besides this, considerable
sums will be needed at crop moving
time, which may perhaps be an ex-
tended period, as it was last year. on
account of the lateness of corn. AS

crop declines appears to have been due
to dead set made against the shorts
at a time of great nervous excitement
in the general market and under cover
of reports that the crop was making
a backward start. Outside of pure
speculation the developments of the
week have been of bearish rather
than bullish character. There has been
a notable decrease in the demand for
spot cotton, especially in Liverpool
Talk is increasing about mills shipping
their cotton back to market rather
than go on spinning it at current
prices, while manufactured goods are
some &c below parity with the raw
material. The weeks weather was all
that could be desired for rapid de-
velopment of the crop, and must neces-
sarily have resulted in rapid improve
ment. Another weak feature is the
suspicious circumstance that the bull
leaders are loudly asserting their pre-
dictions of much higher prices entirely
on the merits of the case" which comes
pretty near to being an infallible sign
that they are anxious to realize their
handsome paper profits, and would
gladly induce some one else to hold the
bag Certainly nothing has yet hap
pened to make the fall months legiti-
mately worth a cent a pound more
now than they were a month ago.
The grain markets were quiet and
without features of interest. Some lit
tie advance predicated on less favor
able crop reports was not sustained,
and prices show little or no change
from those of a week ago, except that
July oats, after selling UP to 347sc,
closed PC higher for the week, at 33Ac.
For the immediate future the prospects
for the grain market would appear to
point to some little easing off in prices
as the weather settles down to summer
conditions.

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
By William T. Williams.


The speculation in cotton continued
on furious scale during the past
week. For the first three days aston
ishing strength was shown by the new
crop months, high points being reached
near the close on Wednesday, when
the advance in those positions had
amounted to from so to 80 points, while
the summer months had gained only go
to 65 points. The high point was for
July 11.35c; August, 11.05c; Septem-
Der, 1O14c; October, 9,75c; November
and December, 9.55c. After this the
market continued exceedingly active,
but very nervous and unsettled, until
Saturday, when a much quieter and
steadier tone prevailed. July closed
SO points up, at 11.09c; August 35 points
up, at 1070c; September Al points up,
at 9.79c; October So points up, at 9.4lc;
November 81 points up. at 9.27c. The
New Orleans market closed 40 to so
points higher and Liverpool made a
net gain of about IA points in old crop,
and % in new crop months.

The June Century opens with an ar
ticle, 1.-THE Sultan of Morocco Journeys
Toward Fez,' written and illustrated
lin part in COLOR by Arthur Schneider,
an American artist, who lived for four
teen months with the Sultan, and who
described in the May Century his eff
forts to teach his majesty drawing.
Henry Norman and q. G. Ashton jon
son, the latter a practical stock Ex-
change man, describe the London Stock
Exchange, with pictures by Andre Cas-
taigne. The article is especially inter-
esting in connection with the recent
opening of the New York Stock Ex-
change Howard Crosby Butler, au-
thor of the lately published book, "The
Story of Athens" describes THE Land
of Deserted Cities" in an account of the
recent American expedition to North
ern-Central Syria, and especially to re-
gions where the civilization of Greece
and Rome fiourished, and where there
are still fine monuments of classic art.
In the Century series on THE Great
Northwest" Ray Stannard Baker de-
scribes the salmon fisheries, and Ernest
Blumenschein Illustrates them. The
fiction in the June Century includes an
illustrated story of boy and his dog,
entitled "Chums," by Edwin L. Sabin,
a sketch that will appeal to any man
who, in boyhood, ever owned dog.
Other stories are by Abigail II. Fitch,

As the school term usually ends with
June throughout the country, one looks
naturally in st. Nicholas for some story
or sketch suggestive of school life. The
opening story of the June number is
entitled 1.-The School Room Dog" by
Mary E. Fitzgerald. and is illustrated
by Miss Ellen b. Thompson, a clever
young Philadelphia artist. when
Stacie's Class Graduated" is another
school story, but of a very different
