NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET
BY Associated Press.

NEW YORK May 6.-Prices for stocks were
advanced again today with every evidence or
effective control of the market on the part OF
the advocates of high prices. The buying was
called largely professional and protective, al
though the persistence of the advance had the
effect of inviting some outside participation
Apparently some demand remains to be sat
isfied from the uncovered short interest also'
in spite Of the heavy purchases for that ac-
count which have followed the considerable
rise in prices, and the bear failures at the
stock exchange which served to sharpen the
demand from the shorts.
1t is evidence that bear operations nave
followed the advance, in the expectation that
1t would culminate and thus afford fresh sus-
tanning force for the market, as the rise
compes their covering.
Various railroad and industrial stocks today
touched the highest prices of the year. The
transcontinental group offered conspicuous eX-
amples.
The market revolved about the Hartman IS
sues to a large extent. The report during the
day that the Union Pacific directors were to
meet tomorrow pointed to immediate pros
pect of the bond issue authorized by the
stockholders May 5. 1t is a very common
assumption that extensive measures are be-
ing used to foster the strength in the stock
market in preparation for this bond issue.
Advancing prices for stocks whet the appe-
tite for new issues, whether of stocks or
bonds. Additional sales today of New York
city revenue bonds on 3h per cent interest
basis, compared with 3A per cent for the
first portion OF the ISSUE tue ldNOi-
ing conditions of the capital issues.
The process of realizing profits In new issues
was accomplished by some irregularity OF
price movement in the regular bond movement.
There was nothing in the money market to
account for this, to seem to threaten the
success of the Union Pacific bond for lack or
abundant money supplies. Discount rates
were inclined to yield both in London and
Paris and the rise in the sterling exchange
rate at Paris a measure of the relaXa-
tion of the demand for that center on London
for gold. The strength of the stock market
was by means uniform. nor did it spread
through the list until after period of irreg-
ularity and hesitation.
Copper rose in London and the American
Smepting company advanced the price of lead
here Some buying of stocks was based on
the expectation that the government report
on crop conditions, to be given out on Friday,
will prove very favorable.
Determined support was extended to the
market up to the end of the day.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value,
S. 500, 900. United States bonds were unchanged
on call.

Reports on Wheat Are Flatterlng.
Good Crops to Be Main Factor

'Perhaps the most encouraging feature
at present is the crop outlook" says Henry
Clews, banker, New York. 1.-The season Is
fully two weeks earlier than last year. and
weather conditions have been particularly
favorable for cultivation and planting.
mo damage has been reported from the
late cool spell except to fruits
reports as TO winter wheat are exceed
ingly fattering condition appearing to be
considerably better than at this time last
year.
Cotton is also doing well, and auVices e.
tbus far received indicate decrease in
acreage. go
Good crops this year will accomplish
more than anything else toward restoring
business to normal volume and prosperity
sPrices of all agricultural products are
high and yield a good profit to the grower.
with chances therefore. that there will be
a good demand during the coming year
for evervthing which our farmers can grow
there is every prospect for very prohtaple
year for the agricultural classes"
