STOCK MARK EFT REVIEW.
Period of Weakness Due to Sympathy
 With London Market.

New York, May IA period of weakness during the morning in tho stock market while the London mar ket was in operation was attributed to sympathy with that market and the fact that q recovery set in here after business had ceased for the day in London, was pointed to as confr- nation of this view The recovery, however did not hold. The disturb ance in London was due to tne bad influence of news Of trouble in India. Arbitrage brokers sold stocks here quite freely for London account, thus offering direct pressure on the New York market, There was, besides, a continued disposition on the part of last weeks buyers of stocks to real izc the profits accrued on their pur- chases; a disposition which was al- ready manifest on Saturday in the sharp reaction at the end of the day.

There was q fair supply of Amalga- mated Copper above 60, ana also 'eyi- dence that it was being bought by shorts, and was also being supported below that price. Directly affecting it was the weakness of copper stocks abroad. Another bearlsh influence was the weekly table of statistics showing a failing average of export prices and very unsatisfactory do- mestic demand for tho metal even with lower prices. In the afternoon short covering and support finally had their effect and forced the stock up to G1.
