NEW YORK, May 1.-THE waiting at
utude adopted by the trading element at
the Stock exchange was significant OF the
uncertain state Of mind caused by the con-
mcting evidences OF what has been going
on In the market under cover during the
week. The days news did not serve TO
place affairs In a new aspect. Trade and
out the signs Of Improvement in the bust
ness, put the speculation remains doubt
tul OF how much of this is adequately dis
counted In the rise OF prices which has
occurred. Railroad earnings show increas-
ingly favorable comparisons with last year.
put the fact Is pointed out that last years
returns were showing prog essiye steps
INTO the depth Of the depression which was
not reached until several months later than
this. The recoveries this year DO not over
come the losses suffered last year.
a softer tone was noted In the none
market today due to supplies from out Of
town and foreign leaders. While New York
borrowers are able to obtain money in
foreign markets, the rate of exchange is
Ilrmly maintained and comes up to the
expectation Of exports Of gold to France
at the closing was at prices unchanged to
any important extent from last night.
The bank statement proved stronger even
than the preliminary estimates, the actual
gam IN cash rising to over 81, 900, 900, with
suDstantial effect on the average cash

ing that pervades sheep circles at this
mart, may also find an explanation in a
comparison between Omaha and Chicago
prices. In their hurry for lambs at this
weeks opening, buyers forced the prices
up to $685., only 15c behind Chicago. Given
a little time for reflection, they realized
that this was out of proportion and pro-
ceeded to use the axe. Still the total de-
cline this week is not OF enough Importance
to put very much color on bearish pros
poets. The market level Is about 10Ql6c
lower thar a ;yesk ago: with the decline
supplies. Wool skins as a rule suffered
the greater decline for the reason that
they made the larger advance on Monday
and on Tuesday, and with nothing
but wooded yesterday, an actual decline
could only be called on that class of Of
ferings. The receipts during the week,
however, were about evenly divided be-
tween wool skins and clippers.
