NEW YORK, May 2.-The character
of the selling which met the opening
advance in prices today carried a suffi-
cient warning that the stocks which
were taken yesterday morning to check
the decentralization in the market were
being disposed of again. 1t seemed
quite evident that the high opening
had been helped for the purpose or
making a better market for disposing
of these stocks. This is strictly in ac-
cordance with the normal course OF the
market movement, after such an cpl
sode Of Saturdays violent break, with
the supporting tactics of Monday.
The appearance Of this class of SELL
ing somewhat dampened the specula-
tive enthusiasm induced by yester-
days considerable advance in prices.
Even the conspicuous advances in spe-
cial stocks later in the day did not
serve entirely to restore confidence in
the stability of the market.
Nevertheless quite a long list OF ef-
fective gains were shown as a result of
the days business and amongst the in
dustrials, and especially strong points
were numerous and diversified.
The conspicuous advances late in the
day were the result of a stirring re-
newal of the rumors of deals which
have almost dropped out OF sight in
the decentralization Of sentiment for the
past week.
The reviving Of talk of the lease Of
the Louisville &c Nashville to the At
lantic Coast line on a dividend guar
antee was especially effective. The ac-
ton of the Chicago & Northwestern
directors toward a Is per cent stock
increase set afloat again various ru-
mors regarding the railroad adjustment
to be worked out in the northwest.
That stock itself had an immediate in
La NJ
detailed information was given as to
the ends proposed with the proceeds Of
the new issue, but speculative senti-
ment indulged in free conjecture along
the lines that suited best the prevail
ing mood. The new stock is part of an
increase authorized by the stockhold-
ers fully three years ago to be issued
from time to time in the discretion of
the directors.
Plenty of ruInors were current also
of the distribution of Northern Securi-
ties assets in a manner to adjust all
the differences in that territory.
Clearing house exchange rose to fig
ures near the record level and this had
some influence on the supposition that
some large transaction in financial
affairs was in course of completion.
The lead and smelling merger talk
had some revival in the natural course
of things.
Consolidated Gas suffered from the
threatened legislation at Albany. The
weakness at this point had some in
fluence in aggravating the early re-
action. It's influence passed away with
the later development but was renewed
at the last.
The weekly crop summary was re-
garded as satisfactory in it's showing
for the winter wheat crop.
March net earnings Of railroads made
further favorable exhibit, especially
that for the Pennsylvania system.
Bonds were strong. Total sales, par
value. So, 365,000.

CHICAGO GRAIN
Firm Undertone for Whest-corn and
Oats Higher

OoNS ''9'N'
BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, May "A liberal de-
crease in the worlds visible supply had
strengthening effect on the wheat
market here today Falling off in
primary receipts also tended to adj
vance prices. At the close, July was
up &c. Corn is up Nc, oats show q
gain Of 3s@1kc and provisions are
shade to 121sc higher.
The wheat market had a firm under
tone the greater part of the session.
Under the influence Of higher prices
at Liverpool, the market opened firm,
with July up b0%c, at S31sc to S3%c.
For O. time pit traders were free
sellers, predictions of rain over the
wheat belt in Illinois being response
BILE for the greater part of the selling
pressure. The best demand was for
shorts. After July had sold off to S2Bc,
offerings dwindled and a firm tone
again developed.
AS trading progressed, the firmness
changed to decided strength. A power
full factor was decrease of 100000
bushels in the worlds availing stocks
Last year there was an increase OF
about 1,000,0 900 bushels. Total primary
receipts were less than for the cores
ponding day a year ago. This fact
had much to do with the bullish senti-
ment.
In addition, advices were received
claiming damage by rust in Texas and
Oklahoma. The highest point on July
was reached just before the close,
when the price touched 81. The market
finished strong, with July at 83asc.
An extremely small movement caused
active covering by shorts in the corn
pit today. resulting in strong market.
July opened h@Ac higher, at 46B@
465hc sold between 463sc and 47hc and
closed at 46Ac.
Trading in oats was dull all day, but
the tone was firm. July opened un-
changed at 2S9sc sold up to 29Ac and
closed at 29b@29Ac.
Provisions were firm on smaller re-
ceipts of hogs. At the close July pork
was up &c. at $12.1219; lard was a
shade higher at $7.22k@7.25; ribs were
up 121Ac, at $7.171a.
