SHOE MANUFACTURERS
DEMAND FREE HIDES.
Philadelphia Makers in War on
Beef Trust.

PHILADELPHIA, May 2s.-Another
forcible declaration that a continuation
of the duty on hides can only benefit
the beef trust. to the detriment of all
other interests of the country, was
made by the Boot and Shoe Manufac-
turers' Association, of Philadelphia and
Camden, at a meeting held in the
Bourse. Resolutions were adopted
calling upon the Pennsylvania senators
to vote n use their influence to have
hides placed upon the free list.
h position taken by the association
was similar to that of the retail shoe
dealers, who last week called upon
Senators Penrose and Oliver in Wash
ington, to point out the evils of the
duty on hides, and to urge that the
two Pennsylvania votes in the Senate
be in favor of allowing hides to come
in free.

WALL STREET NOTES.

Uptown Observation-Disclosures a few
days 8 most spectators thought that
the market the latter part of this week
would be decidedly uninteresting, IN
view of the extra holiday, they ex-
pressed the opinion this morning That
h trading today would he on a larger
scale and that prices would advance
moderately. They look for a consider
ably better market next week. Appar-
emily more attention is paid by leading
spectators to the encouraging crop
reports. favorable railroad earnings
and the material increases in the busi-
ness being lone by the steel manufac-
turing companies and the copper pro-
ducing companies than to the tariff dis
cussion, and what 1t may result In the
way of a definite measure.
Developments Of a highly interesting
character are under way in the Hill
properties, says a report from st. Paul.
These developments have to do with
the better understanding recently
reached with the Hartman interests
and will have a direct bearing upon the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
lines.
Most attention on the London Market
today was given to u. S. Steel, the Har-
riman issues and Erie.
During the strong second hour in the
market, when nowhere else was the
strength anywhere near as pronounced
as in Steel, there was a comparative
lack of response on the part of the
railroad list. Some traders regarded
this as evidence of weakness. Some
observers said they could sea only a
display of underlying strength and an
absorptive power that was wonderful.
Several active market interests sug-
gest that stocks be carried over tile
holidays as higher prices are looked
for next week.
Foreigners are still bullish on the
metal shares. Brunswick Dock is being
bulled for still higher prices by houses
behind the movement. u. P. Is said
to nave accumulated quite a short In
terest which may be disturbed at any
time. Reading is slated for higher
prices. although no deal developments
are looked for for some time In 1t.
Wabash preferred Is considered an ex-
cellent purchase on recessions such as
this mornings, for the long pull. Good
buying is occurring in the Erie stocks
for account of persons having intIma-
tons of what Is in store for that prop
erty. Information coming from a re-
liable source says all the shares are
in line for considerable improvement in
prices.
