NEW YORK. STOCKS AND BONDS
Trading is Dull to the Point Of Stag
nation.
% PRICE MOVEMENT SLUGGISH
Values Are Turned Downward To-
ward the Close by Increase in
engagements ~ Gold for
shipment Abroad.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE stock market
gave signal evidence today that the large
operations which have caused the show Of
animation for some time past has been dis
continued. The trading was dull to the
point Of lethargy and the movement OF
prices sluggish to the point Of stagnatiou.
Persons OF authority and Influence in
finance continued to be quoted in conf
dent opinions of the prospect tor renewal
OF prosperity and there was a marked
unanimity in looking for active revival
with the completion of the tariff legisla-
ton. The price level Of stocks gives
abundant testimony that speculation has
not waited on the passage of the tariff
legislation TO see its advantage coming
from the revival. The stress laid on the
crop prospects In the hopeful Views ex-
pressed by the trade improvements keep
the speculative sentiment sensitive to the
crop news. That from the southwest to-
day counteracted the beneficial effect of
the reports Of the rains last week. Not
only winter wheat, but cotton comes within
the calculation.
News Of industrial conditions was favor
able. Reports of heavy orders for railroad
equipment and supplies had an effect on
the electrical industrials, but not so much
on the steel group. An advance in wire
prices also was without much influence on
that group. The engagement Of S,OOO,OOO
gold for export and prospects of future
outgo to South America revealed the con-
tinued demand of the New York supply
Tor foreign markets. The S3.O00,000 was
known to be destined for Europe, but the
proportion for Paris and that for Holland
was not stated. London's gold supply In
the open market was taken for Austria.
The gold outgo is clearly called for by the
state of the international exchanges, the
recent small excess in value of our mer-
chandise exports over imports being more
than overbalanced by the persistent liqui-
dation of foreign holdings of American
securities. The relative state of the money
markets here and abroad, however, would
prompt the retention of funds here. since
interest rates obtainable in New York are
somewhat better than those abroad. Bor-
rowing abroad has been going on, as a
matter of fact, to a considerable extent
ana has restricted the gold export in pro-
portion. That foreigners should continue to
sell American securities without the pres
sure of any money exigency to push them
makes an effective impression of the idea
held abroad of our price level for securities
as excessive. The free selling of this sort
coming from Holland Ia of special effect on
sentiment owing to- the reinvestment judg-
ment OF the Dutch. The increased gold
shipments from S2,OOO,NO in the morning to
$3,OO,OO in the afternoon was the deter
mining factor in turning prices downward
TO the closing.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, 81 .Ol6, 600.

LONDON, May H.-Money is plentiful,
but in small demand on the market today,
the bulk of the $4,000 in gold offered on
the open market. The week on the stock
market opened quiet. spectators were not
disposed materially to Increase the large
bull account already built up, and the
prices of Kaffirs and copper shares occa-
sionally were easier. But gilt-edged securi-
ties continued firm and foreigners improved
on continental buying. American securities
were neglected In the forenoon. Values
rarely exceeded parity and ruled lifeless
until the New York opening was received,
when Canadian Pacific. Union Pacific and
United States Steel hardened fractionally.
