BUT NOT TO THE ENTIRE Ex-
TENT OF DECLINES. coNTiN-
uEo DOUBT OF MARKET oP-
ORATORS BEING A CAUSE.

New York, May S.-Measmed by
effects in the New York stock market
the tension between Great Britain
and France over preservation of neu-
trality in the far east must be acute.
Measured by another visible index
there does not seem to be serious ap-
prehension Of any rupture between
those two powers. Il is true the sell
ing of stocks in New York which
carried prices downward was mostly
for foreign account, but the volume
of it was NOT impressive and tle ready
effect on prices must be attributed in
large part to continued doubt felt to-
ward the market by operators of any
considerable power or influence.
Declines in government securities
most Immediately affected by the for
eign political situation were moderate
and the movement in foreign securi-
ties markets was more restrained than
in New York. Paris was reported to
be a considerable seller of securities
in London. Discounts hardened in
London and sterling exchange was
notably strong here but sterling was
also strong at Paris and the price Of
gold was reduced in London.
The money rate here was entirely
unaffected and was in fact rather east
err in response to the strong bank
statement az Saturday
The wheat market made some re-
Spouse to the foreign political situa-
ton but close attention was unable
to detect any actual foreign demand
here as a result Of the incipient war
scare. Nevertheless prices of stocks
broke In a decidedly weak manner, a
number Of instances showing lower
quotations than at the extreme low
level OF last week Pacific's south
westerns and southerns were most az
| feeted amongst railroads and iron and
steel stocks were conspicuous amongst
inaustrials. No part Of the list es-
capped entirely the prevailing weak
ness.
| The market was narrow and OBJ
viously in professional hands as was
indicated by light volume Of transac-
| tions both on decline and rally. The
| Indifference of the demand again
showed itself at the recovered level
of prices and they were but poorly
held, SO the closing was barely steady.
