NEW YORK, April 25.-Today's
market gave abundant evidence that
the professional traders had it entirely
10 themselves. The outside public con-
llnued profoundly Indifferent to the
market. The disposition of the pro-
fess1onal traders plainly was to get out
OF their holdings Of long stock. Some
stress was laid in the gossip of the
street upon a fear that the situation
created by Russia's new demands in
Manchuria might develop a crisis. But
the government securities of the ma
uons most interested gave no intima-
llon that such a crisis might become
acute over Sunday.
VI more Immediate effect was the
renewed weakness caused in MetropoI-
ltan Street Railway by the yelled init
1ILatlons OF matter for investigation by
the district attorneys office in the af-
fairs of the corporation. METROPOLITAN
street Railway itself drc-~ad 8 points,
metropolitan Securities and the other
local fractions point or more in SYM
pathy. The market was mostly a wait
ing one until the appearance of the
pank statement, which was regarded
as favorable although the cash in
crease did not equal the maximum es-
Inmates of yesterday The loan de-
crease of $4,582,2O0 contributed to
raise the percentage of reserves to de-
posts, the surplus rising $4,977S25, to
S10,985,475.
Loan Decrease Significant.
AS there has been considerable
liquidation during the week of local
Obligations to foreign lenders, which
probably involved reborrowing from
the local banks, the loan decrease gains
additional significance The strong
weekly statement of the Imperial Bank
OF Germany today completed the rec
ord for the great foreign banks of eff
fective recuperation. Prices of stocks
rose on the bank statement, but a
rather eager desire TO sell at the ad-
vance carried prices backward to the
lowest, and the closing was active and
weak, with net losses of a point or
over for the principal active stocks.
HfceS have moved in a hating and
!hconclus1ve manner in the stock mar
Ket this week, although the level was
al one time considerably above that of
last Saturday.
Bonds have Jared rather better than
STOCKS, IN spite of dull market. Some
buying of new bond issues and of 4
per cent railroad bonds selling below
par has not been noticed. United

Minneapolis Strength ruled in wheat
again and the market held against end
of the week selling, losing only a small
fraction towards the close. All the mar

the general tone, nor was there anything
In the news of the gossip of very great i'm

Shows review Of crop conditions for the
week is as follows: Weather conditions
able for the prosecution of all farm work
and satisfactory for the sturdy and not
too rapid development Of spring crops.
The soil in most sections east of the Mis-
souri, river is full of moisture, but the
surface is drying out rapidly. Good
progress is now being made in plowing
for corn, Only fair progress was made
this week in seeding spring wheat. In
South Dakota the greater part of the
acreage has been seeded. In North Da
kota seeding operations are little If any
more delayed than usual. Winter wheat
maintains its exceptional promise and it
has now reached a position where it may
be assumed that the condition on May
1 will be almost II not quite as near per-
lection as it was on April l., This means
that the crop has reached period when
the beginning of harvest is only 80 days
away, with a promise everywhere that
seems little short of the full capacity of
the SOIL

Flour-The week was one of such unusu-
al conditions as to afford little opportunity
to judge of the real merit Of the market
AS a result of the closing down of the
mills in the week previous. the shipments
on Monday and Tuesday fell to low points
not before recalled, and amounted to prac-
tically nothing. Since then there has
been some recovery, but nothing like a
return to normal conditions. NIillers say
the situation is yet too indefinite to make
predictions for this week. 1t is learned,
however, that general demand for flour
shows some slight improvement and that
foreign inquiry is better, while the re-
mission of the war tax by the British
government is looked to to help the for
e1gn demand later on. Shipments 81 1888
