The presidents speech came in for much discussion nevertheless. His ci- tation Of Burke's 'If I cannot reform with equity I will not reform at all' as the exact spirit in which this coun- try should move to the refrom of abu- ses of corporate wealth and his stress on the point of permitting such ample legitimate profits as will encourage in- dividual initiatave were dwelt on as offering assurances of immunity for in vested wealth from such dangers as have been ostentatiously dreadey by capitalists. But the market was not stirred from its lethargy by this con sideration. Crop damages reports con tlnued to play a large part in the speculation, chiefly by repressing aoti- yity, but finally weakened the whole market. The tons of stocks was rath- CT firm for most of the day This was wholly in sympathy with the strength of Union Pacific and Reading. That strength was unexplained by any news. The operations in Union Pacific were regarded as of some importance but no conclusive opinion could be gather cd as to whether accumulation or dis tribution was the design.

Practical stagnation Following DeIiv-

New York, April 26,-For a good many days past intimations have been current in stock market circles that the address of President Roosevelt at the opening of the Jamestown expos- tion would contain matter calculated
 to revive active operations in securities and quiet all apprehension over that attitude of the administration towards corporations. Immediately upon the publication of the address to-day all activity died out of the market and practical stagnation ensued, The ha- bitual operators in stocks were so dis gusted with the apathetic reception of

Such returns as these ordinarily would have exerted consider able influence, but they fell flat, As the President scanted nothing as to Wall Street yesterday that develop ment is now assigned for his Memorial Day speech.
 It looks as if the banks would suffer a further decline in surplus to-day. The close the week with an apparent loss of $S16,000 on the total movement of currency. This condition resulted almost wholly from the showing with the treasury which contributed. scarcely half million dollars to bank reserves this week. The drain of cash to the interior has been largely sustained by the continued calling of loans by out of-town lenders.

 Should the loan expansion reach $10,- OOO,00O and should the indicated cash loss be fully reflected in to-day's av- erages, the net result would be a re- ductlon in surplus of New York s banks to $S,000,000 or 5000, 900,
