FINANCIAL REVIEW

New York. May 2.-The speculative
sentiment as reflected In the action of
the stock market underwent some un-
settlement In the early part of last
week, but price recoyeries later indf-
Gated a reinstatement Of confidence. II
is quite generally recognized that the
present position owes much to the
money situation, and the wavering OF
prices was traceable TO this influence
10 large extent. The close of the
preceding week had hardening IN
the call money rate TO per cent, the
highest since the first week IN Janu-
ary of this year
The bank statement made 1t clear
that the demand for credits In connec-
tion with the syndicate subscriptions
to new bond issues had encroached on
supplies to an extent that made bank
ers more cautious in extending accom-
modations for speculative purposes.
Suspicion was aroused towards the
market as whole by this evidence of
artificial conditions In special stocks
In some instances there were blunt de-
mails made by officials Of rumors Of In
tended dividend increases, which had
been used In forcing up prices in such
cases.
The final stage before the transition
of the sovereignty In Turkey caused
some uneasiness abroad, which was
reflected In tho local market. The re-
yIval Of anxiety over the prospects Of
delay In the enactment Of the tariff re-
vision measure contributed TO the de-
preston. Another factor against the
market was the unfavorable weather
conditions for the wheat crop, which
gained influence from the renewed up
turn III the price of wheat.
A powerful factor In soothing the
apprehensions was the casing OF the
money market The increased re-
auirement here had the effect OF Mt
tracting funds from outside sources
and OF putting stop to the gold ex'
port movement.
The decisive factor In. the later i'm
proyements OF speculative sentiment
was the conviction that the steel In
dustrv was undergoing turn for the
better The publication OF the United
States Steel earnings for the flrst
quarter OF the year helped that feel
ing. as those earnings were somewhat
better than the preliminary estimates.
or greater effect was tho report OF
a stiffening Of prices on several classes
OF steel products. The hopefulness In
this matter was helped by tho placing
of a number of orders for railroad
equipment by a number of railway
systems.
