sHEEP-Another slow, dun trade was the
result OF continued liberal supplies In the
sheep barn this morning. In point OF de-
mand the market was very similar TO that
OF yesterday, when much OF the stock had
to go at prices about l5c lower during late
rounds.
Further declines were insisted upon this
morning and both fed and grass Offerings
were mean sellers from the start. The big
end OF the run came from range sections,
the same as yesterday and sheep and year
lings made up the bulk. After receipts had
been shaped up ready for the scales and
bids had been solicited on various ship
ments the stuff began TO sell at figures
pretty close to lOul5c lower. Inquiry was
very backward, however, and hardly
enough business had been transacted dur
ing early hours to get much of line on
values, For the two days this week the
net decline on all classes of fat stock Is

NEW YORK. June a.-Apathy overcame
the stock market again today, and the
dealings dropped back to near the point Of
idieness, There was a diversion OF specu-
lative activity to the wheat markets, and
the reports circulated in that market of
damage TO the spring wheat crop were not
heard without solicitude in the market
The considerable rise in prices at the close
yesterday after the almost inert market
Tor long time past prompted to some
pront-taking sales on the part Of the pro-
Tessional element
Speculative sentiment is PECULIARLY SEN
siuve to even suggestion of danger OF
impairment OF the full return of agri-
cultural products which have been counted
on
The refusal of the stock market to take
uation was cue partly to the moderation
with which the subtecty-was touched in
the weekly bulletin Of the government
weather bureau, which announced that the
hot, dry weather of the week was very
trying to vegetation already deficient in
vitality on account Of previous adverse
weather conditions In Wisconsin, Mime
sofa and the eastern part of the Dakotas
and northern Iowa. This special cation fol-
lowed the opening summary Of the bulle-
tin, holding that for the country a
whole the weather OF the last week was
the most favorable for the argiculturist Of
the season to date"
A sustaining influence in the stock mar
ket is the easing tendency of money mar
