course Under Leaden Skies.

NEW YORK. May 9.-The racing season
at Belmont Park was inaugurated today
under weather conditions which not only
marred the spectacular display, which al
ways marks the opening day at this IA
nous course, but seriously detracted from
the interest in the great Metropolitan
handicap. steady, cold rain fell all the
forenoon. and by 2 O'Clock the track was
in such sloppy condition that all hope
for fast time in the star event was aban-
doned. In spite Of the weather the at
tendance was heavy, but 1t was drab-
hued crowd Of rain-garmented and over
coated enthusiasts that filled the vast
grand stands and the club house verandas.
which, with fair day. would have bios
somed with spring costumes.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
: NEW YORK, May 9-Thesopinion Is free
ly expressed that the market Is not likely
to have severe break in the near future,
largely because of the heavy liquidation
which took place in March and the large
short interest which 1t is believed now ex-
lists. One observer of the tape. in discuss
ing the technical position of the market
this morning, said that in his judgment It's
oversold condition Is the principal sustain
Ing factor at the present time. He believes
that 1t would be dangerous to make extern
sive commitments on the short side just
now. as he Is looking for prices to be raj
lied sharply on the shorts at most any
time. On the other hand. he thinks 1t viii
be practically impossible to make sub
stantial profits by buying for an advance.
He believes that still more time will be
condition.
While railroad men seem to have received
limitations that the policy of President
Roosevelt toward the large corporations Is
likely to be less aggressive than during the
last two years, it was rumored this morn
Ing that In the near future an unfaVora-
BILE report with respect to the Hartman
lines might be issued by one Of the depart
sources came the rumor that 1t would be
the last document of that character.
Officials Of railroads operating in the state
of Minnesota who are in town apparently
have received no further information as to
probable action by stockholders to restrain
the recent rate law. 1t looks now as though
nothing Of that character would be done, at
any rate. in the state of Minnesota 1t Is
taken for granted in most circles that the
first important announcement by the Union
Pacific management will be plan for rails
ing additional capital.
1t Is believ1 also that similar announce
ments will be made by several of the large
railroads during the next few months, If
business conditions seem to warrant the
taking of such action. Although 1t has
been rumored that the Northern Pacific. the
Great Northern and Chicago and North
western would increase their dividends at
the next period. men in close touch with
the affairs Of those corporations and of the
situation in the west say that 1t may be
taken as practically an absolute certainty
that no dividend Increases will be ordered
until definite Information Is obtainable re-
garding the crops, and until more can be
known of the effect of the laws already
passed and Of what additional measures OF
similar character are likely to be passed by
legislative bodies.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS

With a dwindling supply OF the per cent
bonds for the market the price con-
tinues to advance. Today, for example.
at the meeting Of the stock exchange the
advance In the figures for this security as
compared with the best price paid yester-
day was exactly point.
Yesterday 1854 represented the highest
notch then reached in the market valua-
ton OF these new bonds. Today, however,
as much as 1924 was paid for fractional
lot and 1O9h for quotation lots. and at
the close 100 was the bid, while the asking
price was quarter ora point in advance.
The demand came from about the same
source as on previous days, and the same
buyer wanted the per cent bonds OF the
company, which are to be funded at 1OS
and interest on the first Of the coming
month. One hundred and five and half
was paid for one lot, and the bid for more
was on the same level.
There was no market for anything
else on the list, judging from the course
of the attempts at trading. An excep-
tion might be noted in the case OF gas
stock. which sold at CON and 6Oh. At
the latter figure 100 shares were taken.
and the seller offered another similar
lot at the same price, but the best bid
for 1t was 60. -:
In fact there were a number of bids
on the floor at that level, but the stock
was not supplied A. the beginning OF
the trading there was some stock for
sale at 60%, but that was finally secured
by the so-called pool at an eighth Of
point and a quarter less than the asking
price. The purchase Of the 1OO-share
block was from the same quarter
At the close the bid was sos and the
asking price quarter Of point In ad-
vance.
The railway stocks were neglected. al
though another slight advance was
made in the upward course, which seems
to have begun in the case of Capital
Traction stock in its recovery from the
rather low level of recent days.
Quite demand appeared for the pre-
ferred stock of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company at 70. which is
less than the latest selling price for this
security. The near approach Of the divi-
dend period, as the books will be closed
for the transfer of this stock by the
Goth of the present month. did not seem
to make any difference. The stock was
offered at 79h. which. less the dividend
nearly due, would make the market
price about II.
