WALL STREET. REVIEW
EVIDENCES OF POSITIVE WEAK
 NESS APPEARS.
United States Steel Preferred Freely Sold from the Outset With Marked Sympathetic Ef-
 feet on the Market.

New York, April 25.-While the stock market of today continued extremely dull there were evidences Of more posi- tive weakness than in the stagnant and dropping market of last week. The weakness seemed to spring from united States Steel preferred which was very freely sold from the outset with marked sympathetic effect on the whole market
 The course of this selling was not clear " understood but 1t was attributed to Ptttsburg account and was supposed for that reason to be based on unfavorable developments in the trade. The nnfavor- able developments were not divulged al- though there were reports of another proposed large purchase of pig iron from outside producers by the United States, Steel corporation. It was rumored also verting preferred stock into second mort gage bonds were about to be finally closed. Some large individual blocks of the second mortgage bonds changed hands on a declining scale, and sharp de- clines in the stocks of some of the kibor steel companies added to tho depressing enect of the movement on the general market. The engagements of gold for ed an aggregate of s6, 600,(00 which Is close to the rec'>i of about $7,300.000 for sim gle shipment which went out In the fall of 1901. Paris also bought some $2,t000-0 of gold in the London market today thus strengthening the expectation of an early Russian loan issue at that center. Mean time the bank week has started with an- other payment by the sub-treasury of about N.500,000 on account of Japanese gold at San Francisco and further large receipts or that account are expected to continue. Money continues almost drug, except for an active demand fer commercial paper and for corporation debts. The plethoria of money, the huge figure attained by the deposit item of the banks and the nominal interest rate on call and short time loans Is giving rise to discussion of the rates now paid on deposits by some of the trust com panies and banks which seem to involve q margin of loss. Railroad traffic off, cials continue to explain the lower level or current earnings by the deferred spring weather and to express confidence that arrears of traffic will come followed with seasonable weather. But the mer- cantile world reports the same backward spirit, with no signs of a disposition to output or by laying in supplies.
 The acceptance by the wheat market today of the report of successive rains In the Southwest gave renewed cause for uneasiness over crop prospects and the memory of last years severe flood losses In that region must add additional weight to the weather news. The London cop- per market was strong but without beit- eft to Amalgamated copper The active stocks ended the day a point below last weeks final points and the tone was easy with prices at the lowest of the day.
 Bonds were irregular but the active fs- g, ,ao0, 0,05O.
 U. s. bonds were unchanged on call

MARKETS FOR FUTURES
PRICES 1s TO 20 POINTS OFF, AT
 THE OPENING.
Liquidation and Bear Pressure En- couraged by Lower Cables and Prospects for Heavier Re-
 ceipts--Sales 300, ,0oO.

New York, April 25.-The cotton mar ket opened weak at a decline of 10 and IS points under liquidations and bear pressure encouraged by lower cables than expected: the weather while somewhat settled was still considered fairly fayora- ble for the season and the prospect for large receipts. The opening declines caught stop loss orders and while they also attracted considerable profit taking from the shorts the tendency of prices was continued downward until shortly be- fore midday prices showed a net loss of 27 to 34 points. This was followed by sufficient covering promoted by reports of better spot demand to- rally the market about ten points from the lowest. hut the reports concerning a more active spot business received no official con firmation and the market in the early afternoon again turned weak.
 During the balance of the session fluctuations were irregular. but the general undertone seemed little steadier. The upward tendency was lirn- ited by liquidation and the market closed barely steady about ? to 6 points up from the lowest but at net loss of 26 to S4 points. Sales estimated at 500000 bales. representing one of the most active days for week or more. Port receipts for the day were a little over last year s figures, but the interior movement was light. Receipts at the ports were 1000 bales against 9,771 last week and 9.239 last year. For the week 400O0 against 56.501 last week and 66,56l last year. Today 8 receipts at New Orleans 4.624 against B. s33 last year and at Houston 949 against 3,099 last year.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

&
 CHICAGO, April 25.-A sharp break oc- cured in wheat to-day. due to heavy real izlng sales, brought out to some extent by weakness in com. Final figures on July oats down a shade and provisions about un- changed.
 In spite of an abundance of grain throughout the principal sections of the win ter wheat country there was a good demand at the start. Apparently little attention was paid to the lower Liverpool cables and to passage. July opened hc lower to hc higher at S3A 6S3h, and with only light offerings the market soon became strong. July advancing to s4 cents. The higher prices brought out a number of realizing sales and @ slight reaction followed. To- ward the middle of the session the market again became strong under the influence or numerous reports of damage in the South west. Another cause of the active de- mand was cash wheat in the St. Louis mar ket. The situation being a material aid in forcing up speculative prices here. From S3h July advanced to S4A @S4%. Later. however. buying orders from the outside be- came scarce, support seemed entirely lack ing and prices broEe. slump in corn was last half hour the market was extremely weak and closed practically at the lowest point of the day. July closed at S2M May sold between 85 A and Ss and closed at S6 Ciearanoes euualed s.014 bushels. The amount on passage increased 100000 and the visible supply showed a decrease of 173.- 
 els, against 469. 200 a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported 154 cars, against 271 last week and 136 year ago.
 Strength in wheat and excessive rains throughout the West caused firm tone in corn the early part of the day. The de- mand was from recent shorts. On the ad- vance considerable pressure became appar- ent. which resulted in a severe decline. The decline in May was said to be due to hold CTS running away from the prospects of ex- banding their lines on the first of May. The market closed near the bottom. July opened Y a hc higher at 4s94Sh, ranged between 47h and 4SM and closed at 47A @47%. May sold between 45R and 4T$, closing at 46 Receipts, 218 cars, 4S con- tract. 's
 Commission houses and shorts were fair buyers of oats in the early session, the in ducement to buy being an improvement in the cash business and unfavorable weather for seeding On the break in corn there was liberal selling of oats and the market became steady. It closed about the lowest July opened %c to %9%c higher at 36h Q 36 to 3sh, sold off to S5% and closed at 35%. Receipts. 52 cars.
 Provisions opened a little easier on lib- eral hog receipts brisk demand for lard soon developed and the market became stronger. The weakness In grains. how ever, had a depressing effect ond there was no irs rsportant selling. The close was steady with July pork down 2h Q5 cents at 12. 20 @l2.22A: July lard and ribs unchanged at 6, so and 6.57h.

In the trading May first lost 27 points to IS. 64. re- covered to 1870 and finally declined to 13 4s, Other active months showed simi- lar fluctuations.
