NEW YORK LETTER.

New York. April 29.-Union Pacific
furnished the leading feature to a
somewhat erratic and dull market. The
trade in this issue was the largest for
some time and comprised almost one
third of the days entire business. 1t
opened at 1441a, or one-half a point
higher than the final sale Saturday
and advanced steadily until at the clos
ing hour the tape recorded 14S. An
advance of four points in these dull
markets is rather unusual The con-
tinued talk Of a holding company being
organized to take over all the Union
Pacific's holdings in other properties
was the cause of the advance. If such
procedure takes place. a handsome
melon will be cut and the present stock
holders will benefit greatly. The plan
as yet in its infancy. The practical
bility of it is not yet assured. At any
rate the rumors have the desired eff
feet of causing the shorts to cover.
The crop news from the southwest
was Of a more assuring nature. De-
clines in the wheat market at the prin-
cipal trade centers acted as a stimulus
to the bulls upon railroad stocks. If
the crop losses are exaggerated, stock
values, especially the grain carrying
roads, show a marked appreciation in
value.
| Expectation of an excellent showing
for the quarterly statement of the
| United States Steel company caused a
/ stronger undertone for these shares.
The statement Is to be given TO the
public tomorrow. The earnings are
undoubtedly enormous and should have
a strengthening effect upon the prices
of both the common and preferred
shares. The balance of the market
showed advances varying from one to
two points over Saturdays figures. The
closing was strong in spots with still
| further advances probable.
The call loan rate reached the low
est thus far this year, ruling at one
per cent.

the general movement is that while
the United States is trying to minimize
and even exclude italian. Hungarian
and Japanese immigration. Brazil is
encouraging all these countries. The
Brazilian government recently granted
a subsidy of $500 900 a year TO any
shipping company which shall establish
a regular service between Brazil and
Japan for the development of trade be-
tween the two countries and the car
rying of Immigrants" Thus the pro-
cess of international miscegenation
goes on and population finds its level
along the lines of least resistance. It
is possible. too. that the United States
may discover before long that 1t is
waste Of time to try to cultivate trade
with eastern nations while prohibiting
immigration of their people.-Indian-

CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, April 29-WHEAT.-The re-
dictionary tendency which was in evil
dence at the close of the session Satur-
day continued this morning. Foreign
markets showed a disposition TO weak
ness. The one bear argument which
was given precedence over all others
was the copious rain which Kansas en-
jOyed over Sunday. The rains stopped
the talk Of damage by the green bugs
and induced considerable selling by
bears who have fought the advance so
persistently. There was a fair cash
business transacted here and at New
York. The break in the market en-
abled exporters to work wheat between
this market and Europe with a fair
profit. All Of the speculative futures
showed declines for the day averaging
about three-quarters of a cent
CORN-Only moderate trade in this
cereal There has. however, been an
enormous cash business transacted.
Sales TO the seaboard will exceed a half
a million bushels. There is very little
contract corn left at this market. The
May option continues TO hold q slight
premium over the July. Trade is grad
ually transferring to the more distant
futures. The market closed fairly

Those who have been buying stocks
early in the week in anticipation of
the speech of the president bulling
the market, tried to sell out when 1t
was delivered, but they found no mar
ket upon which to do so, as the presi-
dent said nothing that could be con-
strued as antagonistic to Wall street
or the railroads and corporations. The
fact is, important investment or specu-
lative buying is held in restraint by the
increased uncertainty Of the crop sit
uation. The outlook. especially for
wheat, could hardly be worse than at
present.-T. a. Mcintyre & Co.

Wire houses had the appearance of
activity yesterday, although the stock
market was absolutely dull and apath-
etic. AS rule these houses have
among their customers a liberal per-
centage of men who trade exclusively
in grain and disregard the stock board
altogether. These regular customers
in grain options were increased yes
terday by recruits from the stock trad
ing crowd and the advance in wheat
monopolized interest to a large extent.
The president of a large western
corporation who is in town today, said
this morning that in his opinion there
must be liquidation in labor and ma
terials, the same as there has been in
stocks in Wall street. He says that
he does not wish to pose as a calamity
bowler, but he is firmly of the opinion
that business must slow up sufficiently
to bring about a substantial reduction
in the cost of labor and materials be-
fore the country will again be on q
substantial and healthy basis.

The Leap Of Curtius.

A boy asks the editor to tell him
something about the leap Of Curtius,'
TO which he has seen allusion as an
episode of Roman history, says the
Chicago News. The story is well worth
toe telling. An earthquake had opened
great chasm in the Forum at Rome,
and the people had labored In vain to
fill it. Finally the augurs, or fortune
tellers, said that the chasm would new
er be filled until that which was most
precious to Rome was thrown In. The
citizens stood around, nwed and Won
lering. not knowing how to interpret
this prediction, when suddenly through
the crowd rode Marcus Curtius on his
war horse and fully armed. Nothing
IS more precious to Rome than a brave
soldier." he cried and spurred his gal
looping horse into the chaSm. Then the
earth closed, and ever since the spot
has been known as Locus Curtius.

Why Plants Lean Toward Light.

Plants in window lean toward the
light because the side away from the
light grows faster and thus bends the
plant over. Woody tissue is formed
more abundantly on the side nearer the
light. hut Growth is less on that side
because that part of the stem is less
