new YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Large Distribution of Speculative
Holdings is Affected.
Restraints ADVANCE IN PRICE
AbsOrptive Power of Market strong,
However, and Bulls Are EncOur-
aged-New High Mark for
Steel Preferred.

NEW YORK, May S.-A large distribution
of speculative holdings of stocks was et-
fected today with the result of holding in
restraint the upward trend of prices. The
great volume Of sales was made at prices
higher than yesterday and represented,
therefore, substantial profits on purchases
made at any time since the low level of
prices touched In the panic period OF 1917,
and in the period OF excitement depression
following. United States Steel preferred
rose to the highest price of the year. The
growth of speculative interest in the mar
ket for several days past has resulted IN
bringing I'm increased orders TO buy stocks
from outside sources and this supplied an
advantageous medium for securing protlts'
The absorpttve power of the market IN
fact, proved so effective as TO furnish en-
coura cement TO the bull leadership In the
The profit taking of the first hour was
followed by renewed accumulation of stocks
i'm the second hour I'm the expectation that
a rising market at the close OF the week
would serve to attract renewed outside
buying at the beginning of next, thus
furnishing an opportunity for further mar
ketings of holdings az the high prices now
prevailing. Realizing was renewed at the
still favorites in the speculation and were
subjected to realizing sales, along with
other stocks. The movement in the coppers
was conspicuous in foreign markets and
broadening demand was sufficient to
absorb the profit taking TO advantage. Very
little fresh news accompanied the activity.
Reliance Is placed on the ~supposition that
the powerful capitalistic groups are foster
ing the rise in prices induced to this course
by cheap money rates and by the demand
thus excited for new pond issues, which
are being brought out constantly to meet
financial needs of the great corporations.
Reduction in the idle freight car surplus
for the second half OF April was a favorable
influence. 1t was noticed. however, that
the reduction was traceable almost wholly
to the increased movement of coal.
The small net price changes at the end
of the day. in view of the great animation
of the market is testimony to the skill and
persistence with which the demand was
supplied. The decrease i'm surplus reserve

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of tho Trading and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade,

CHICAGO, May S.-Wheat prices on the
Board of Trade slumped violently today on
selling, based on reports of rain in Kansas
and on a break of I'd at Liverpool.
The market was weak all day and closed
at net, declines of lAq3c, compared with
yesterdays final figures. Corn, oats and
provisions also closed weak.
Traders In the wheat pit appeared very
much at sea and as a consequence the vol
ume OF trade was not so large as on the
previous session. The feature of trade was
the heavy selling pressure to which the
July delivery was subjected and the rel
alive weakness OF that month compared
with the more distant options. At the low
point today the July delivery was 3%c be-
low the high price of the preceding ses-
showed a loss of less than &c. The mar
ket opened extremely weak at losses of Nc
TO 23sG2hc, with July at $L15Ol16 and Sep
TENDER at .$1.05%9l.O7. There was consid-
cradle buying of the deferred futures by
northwestern interests, which tended to
check any further decline In those months,
but the July delivery was in poor demand
and sold off more than 1c below the open
Ing low point, the bottom being reached at
FL. September held within the opening
range throughout the entire day. The mar
ket closed weak, with July al A.14hd
l1t% and September at s1.o6l4. Final quo
tations on December were at N.059s4l.Gol ~.
The corn market was weak all day be-
cause OF heavy selling pressure, based on
a poor shipping demand and on prospects
of a liberal increase in the movement dur
ing the coming week. Some Of the leading
longs in the wheat market were the prin-
cries displayed the greatest weakness. At
the close prices We're sc 10 1sGlc below
Yesterdays final figures, May being at 72c
and July az 6Slsd6Sssc.
Improved weather conditions for the new
crop prompted liberal selling OF September
oats, and the slump I'm wheat and corn
caused free profit-taking in the May OPP
ton. The result was a weak market all
day. The close was only a trifle above the
low point at net declines of LQSsc TO &c,
with May at 5S1Sc and July at 5llkc.
The weakness of corn led to considerable
speculative selling of provisions, ~particu-
larry OF lard, which resulted I'm a heavy
lone all day. At the close prices were 5d
7lac TO 12iRc lower than the previous fin
ish.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

SHEEP-As is usually the case on Sat
urday there were no receipts whatever
today. The spectacular vaulting stunts OF
the lamb market during the last couple
weeks have at least accomplished two
things. The last trace or bearish senti-
ment is effectually wiped out and a new
day during the last two weeks has seen
values go higher and higher. The total
advance during the last week Is even
greater than that OF the previous week.
but this feature Is perhaps explained by
the lighter receipts.
