NEW YORK. May 7.--The course of
todays stock market demonstrated how
largely the outstanding short interest
had been reduced in the course of the
violent rebound from last weeks eX-
treme depression. Readings recovery
from last weeks low point to today s
high point reached nearly Is points.
With the satisfaction of the demand
from the shorts the market fell into a
dull condition and showed heavy tone
under irregularity after a rally.
The advantage against the bear party
was extended considerably by the ac-
ton of the miners committee on Satur-
day morning making a settlement with
out a strike practically certain The
influence of this factor was carried over
into today's market and made Reading
strong and very active. The feVerish
fluctuations in this stock gave ample
indication of some very active manipu-
lation which was directed against the
more persistent bear position in the
stock.
The advance in Reading had a sus-
tanning influence on the general list
while II lasted. The sagging tendency
was quite manifest however, when
Sentiment in the financial district at
present is favorable to pause in
Speculative activity for the clearing UP
of the situation. The money market
shows evidence of relief by reason of
the drastic liquidation effected as well
as by the heavy flow of gold to New
York from abroad. The settlement of
the coal labor dispute is regarded with
emphatic satisfaction in its bearing on
the confirmation of the SCUM ndn ess of
the general business situation.
Western railroads for the first time
in many months admitted a falling off
in traffic in spite of some extra busi-
ness on account of supplies for San
Francisco
Reading. after losing nearly all of its
gain. rose to the best and reasserted it's
influence In the market UriceS at some
points rallying to the top. The recov-
cry again failed to hold and the market
closed Irregular

Shorts Active Bidders for Wheat.
Firm Gables Give Strength
to Corn
BY Associated Press.


CHICAGO May 7.-Shorts were ac-
tive bidders at the start today because
of higher prices at Liverpool, under this
demand the market became firm Later
IN the session, however. considerable
amount of profit taking in the May
option, coupled with the fact that the
total arrivals today were $4,000 bush
els, against $4,000 for the correspond
ing day year ago caused a weak tone
in the market. The volume of trading
was small. The forthcoming govern
ment report was assigned as the cause
of the dullness. The market closed
easy with prices near the lowest OF the
DAY; July opened unchanged to BGDA c
higher at 79A @793sc to 79l2c, sold up
to 79 % n 1890 and then reacted to
7SBc. The close was a c off at 79c.
The corn market was steady early
in the day on a fair general demand
based upon firm cables. July closed u
a y c lower at 45%c.
Trading in oats was quiet but the
market had firm undertone. July
closed unchanged at 80 Is 0S1c.
Provisions were firm. At the close
July pork was up 121ac, lard was 71ac
higher and ribs gained 71s @1Oc.
