TRANSITION MADE
N STOCK TRADING
Financial Institution Said TO be
in Trouble
GOOD RESISTANCE IS MADE
Inward Movement Gave Impression
of Having Been Fostered for
Giving Better Basis for
Further Liquidation.

New York, May 22.-The tone of specu-
lative sentiment underwent an abrupt
transition during the course of today $
trading in stocks Defined rumors of
financial institution in trouble circulated
during the day. The influence upon feel
ing of the violent break in prices of the
latter part of the day was the more eff
fective on account of the strength shown
during the morning. Last weeks heavy
liquidation and the apparent renewal OF
it in the closing hours of Saturday left
the expectation Icy heavy selling to
be faced.
The good resistance. offered by the mar
ket this morning, therefore, came as a
surprise, and the professional traders we're
inclined to hasten to make commitments
on the long side of the market. The
receipt Of considerable buying orders from
London gave an impression of revived
confidence in our securities on that side
of the ocean. There was no news to ac-
count for the sudden accession of selling
power in the market, the orders to sell
appearing simultaneously in many quar-
tiers, and from an unknown origin. The
market had come practically to stand
still before they appeared, and this had
a discouraging effect on those hopeful of
a further advance.
The upward movement gave impression
of having been fostered for the purpose
of affording a better basis for further
liquidation, and it was rumored that large
and important interests were getting OUT
their holdings. The abrupt market drop
in Northern Pacific WAS of special IN
f1uence on sentiment. 1t is now beheVed
that the formation last week of the new
Northern Pacific directorate may be ac-
cepted as the definite conclusion OF any
harmony plans that may be in contempla-
tion and any accompanying hopes OF the
high values to be developed in all nofth-
western stocks by a comprehensive pan
to conserve all interests. There is a dls-
position to account for the persistent ana
determined liquidation as being due large
" to the retirement of holdings acquired
at one or another stage of the attempted
settlement in the northwest. Another IN
fiuence was the renewed weakness OIL me
United States steel stocks
Rassuring assertions from authorities
in the trade of the light Importance to
be attaced to the present luli IN that
trade are of little effect on sentiment IN
face of the practical weakness OF tines
stocks in the market and the prevalence
of doubts of the stability of the iron and
steel trade bring into question the Whole
business outlook. Railroad traffic officials
admitted some falling off In Burlington on
account of damage to crops in the north
west, augmented by wet weather and I'M

Ware e. LeIand's Market Letter.

The weather was again poor, not that
the crop is ruined, or anything like It.,
In fact. complaints are coming from, say
one-third of Texas--and Texas raised less
than one-quarter of the whole crop last
year-so that less than 10 per cent of
the belt was adversely Influenced. yet
In the present state of the market and
with prices as low as they are 1t did not
need much rain In Texas to open the
market with whirl.
October finally sold over cents and
July around 7.9o. The New Orleans and
Liverpool markets were as strong as
any. There is no short selling so that
the market advances easily on such
weather as we have had over Sunday, it
is not that rain would have been noticed
under ordinary conditions. for they were
merely good. leaving rain out after all
the rain that has fallen this month"; the
weather now is anything but satisfac-
tory.
If 1t does not clear up in the south
west pretty soon. we expect trouble. As
long as the weather is not good you can
buy cotton on all declines.

shorts today caused a sensational adj
vance of &c a bushel of the price of
corn for May delivery and 4c in the
price of May wheat. Rumor of an at
tempt to corner all corn for May de-
livery was the main reason for the sharp
bulge in the price of corn. Part of the
advance was lost on profit taking. And
the close for May corn was up 41sc.

Loveman G. Co.'s Market Letter.

Futures advanced about % points today,
heavy rains having occurred in almost
every district of the cotton belt. Re-
ports from the northern half of Texas
and Arkansas were more pessimistic than
ever, farmers In that section of the cot
ton region being almost unable to do
anything in the way of led work, plant
ing in that part of the southwest remain
ing incomplete, and there is no doubt
but that 1t has been interfered with in
number of other districts of the south.
There has been altogether too much
rain during the planting season Under
such conditions the crop cannot be but
late and all the more subject to serious
damage from excessive heat and an early
winter, should such weather conditions
materiallze. II the law of averages hold
good this season, the wet spring that is
now drawing to close will be followed
by dry summer. The plant is In no con-
dition to Withstand protracted drouth,
the continuous rains preventing the form
ing of tap root These conditions, how
ever, only apply to the western belt
where there has been too much moisture.

Common Council met Friday even.
ing and took action in number of taN
matters. Exemptions of poll tax were
ordered to several tiremen, National
Gnardsmen and others who had been
wrongtully assessed.
Valuations were also placed upon
three or four properties and he mat
ter of assessing and collecting tax on
property of Amwell Lodge, No. 10,
f. X A. NJ was discussed. The opiu
ion of City Solicitor Sergeant was to
the effect that Amwell Lodge had Sc
cured exemption from taxes from the
state at the time of erecting their
building on Bridge street and could
not now be made to pay taxes in ac-
cordance with its charter. The sole
ltor was sustained and the assess
ment against the lodge was stricken
from the books of the receiver of taxes.
After adopting a resolution extend
ing thanks to President Holcomhe
and City Clerk Reynolds for courtes-
les extended during the past year the
Council adjourned sine die. The re-
firing members are William Lodor,
First ward James ID. MacKay Second
ward, and Lewis p. Bodine, Third
ward, all Republicans.
