up the situation in any one phrase sufficiently
broad TO define adequately the state of trade
In the nation as q Whole.
Some irregularity is apparent in finished
materials of iron and steel because of the in
ereasing capacity of the mills, yet it is signif-
cant that structural steel bookings for the first
quarter exceed all previous records for that
period, with two exceptions. 1t is In pig iron

Future Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO, April S.-The government crop re-
port was an influential factor in the wheat mar
ket today and caused excitement and nervous
ness In the pit in the final half Of the session.
A steadier tone developed late IN the day and at
the close prices were unchanged TO i "a 14c lower.
Coarse grain affected by the erratic course
OF wheat. Provisions were weak closing at net
declines of 121ae TO 25c.
Wheat was dull prior to the publication Of the
fall sOwn crop. Following the issuance OF the
report, however, trading became decidedly active.
According to the official report, the condition Of
winter wheat in the United States on April 1
was SO.S OF normal crop. which would indicate
total yield Of 473, 600. 900 bushels. Aside from
the crop report the news of the day was bearish.
During the day July ranged between $1.0414 and
$lOo1a and September sold between $1.01ls and
lO3A. Prices closed more than 1c above the low
mark, although the new crop months still a
trite below yesterday July closed at $1.Oj$s

PRICES GO DOWN
In STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, April S.-There
was considerable increase in
the offerings of stocks for sale
today. There was, however, a
distinct increase in the difficulty
with which they were marketed.
The absence of bids at current
quotations made itself obvious at
the outset and prices declined.
The bids at successive stages Of
the decline were readily filled,
necessitating further concessions
by the sellers in order to place
their stocks. Declines of one to
three points were general at the
end of the day.
The rising money rate was a
broadly effective influence. Coupled
with the belief that gold exports
would further deplete the bank
reserve next week the money situ-
alton offered little incentive to
buy stocks. Preliminary estimates
of the currency movement of the
week indicate excess of receipts
from the interior TO the extent of
several millions of dollars. The
subtreasury operations have near
ly balanced. The s5,5O0,OOO of gold
exports which figure in the bank
ing week will be partly offset
therefore
The government crop report,
published at noon, brought no re-
lief TO the stock market depression.
i
was in the belief that conditions
have improved since the date of
the report. The decline of Is
points in the condition from De-
cember 1 to April 1. however.
shows the glaring contrast of
early expectations of the crop
with the after effects of the win
ter killing.
The March statistics of the
Copper Producers association was
another depressing factor. The
increase of 16,6S6,SS2 pounds in
the stocks of copper for the month
comes in spite of a reduction in
March, the deliveries into con-
sumption having fallen to the
lowest figure for any month since
February. 1909. with the single
exception OF September of last
year.
Political discussion figured in
the days stock market. There
was renewed consideration of a
possible supreme court decision in
the American Tobacco case on
Monday The action of the Erie
railroad in reducing its shop
forces and laying off engines was
cited as evidence of tagging traf-
fic conditions for the railroads.
Bonds were heavy. Total sales
(par value), S2,0S9,000.
