FOREIGN MARKETS.

LONDON, April 15.-During the week
on the stock exchange the holidays and
the settlement coupled with dizziness on
foreign bourses reduced business ma
terially. but the undertone was generally
good. The continued money stringency
led to realizing in the gilt edged section.
while the approach OF the holidays in
duced traders to reduce their specula-
tive commitments, but this selling only
caused moderate declines. and fresh
burst of buying in home rails on good
traffic prospects. and the recovery of q
quarter Of point In consols. made the
final tone firmer.
American securities were very dull
in the absence OF decided lead from
Wall street and after daily fractional
movements, the market finished the week
about unchanged
The tax collections and the withdraw
ais Of funds for holiday requirements
kept the money market bare Of supplies
and made discount rates stronger. No
relief is looked for pending the govern
ment disbursements.

CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO, April 15.-1nsistent covering
by shorts in the face Of tight holding by
bull leaders forced a sharp advance to-
day in wheat. The close was strong at
the highest point Of the week, 1a11s to
2% above last night. Latest trading left
corn with a net gain Of a to ssa12; oats
UP 3sa1a to " and provisions more ex-
pensive by 10 to 521sc.
Big decreases in stocks at Minneapolis
had much to do with causing bull senti-
ment concerning wheat. Better cash and
-four demand at spring wheat markets
and improved inquiry for spot grain at
Kansas City helped to make shorts here
nervous. BY. far the greatest anxiety was
IN regard to the May delivery. Offerings
of that option were remarkably scarce.
and efforts to even up recent sales of
the future became SO strenuous that other
months were affected. and a general buy
mary receipts and falling off I'm world
shipments gave timely aid to the bulls,
and so did unfavOrable crop reports from
Hungary and from France. During the
last half hour in particular the market
had broad, active character, and the
total amount covered was counted in
millions of bushels. High and low limits
for May proved to be OH and SSN, with
last sales 2ss UP at 91as
Smallness of receipts tended to harden
the market for corn. but the main infiu-
ence was the strength of wheat. Coun-
try offerings were scant. May ranged
from 491za49ss to 5Olsa5OA and closed
steady. with May at 497sa5O, a net gain
of Il. Cash grades were firm. No. 2
yellow finished at 51Aa51k.
sympathy with other grain braced up
the price of oats. Shorts were the best
buyers. May fiuctuated between 31ss and
32ss, closing Aah net higher at 321H
Foreigners were reported as making
purchases of provisions in the pit here.
In this connection some significance was
attached to dispatches from Germany
stating that hogs in that country are
suffering severely with lump jaw. The
outcome of the days business was a
smart advance all around. 10 to 521s in
pork. % to 25a27z for lard and Is to
221a on ribs.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.


NEW YORK, April Is, 1911.
The market deadlock has taxed the en-
durance Of SPECTATORS and brokers to
holders of record do not appear to be in
on the fluctuations in prices are in the
doldrums. They walk and talk as
though they were in a graveyard. Their
lamentations are painful. To hear them
one would think the end OF the world Is
|ot hand.
The expensive offices maintained by
fitch brokerage firms and banking houses
In the Wall street district are deserted
and the working stats are being reduced
on every hand. Customers slip around
like ghosts. stealthily reading the tapes
and news slips and stealing away again.
They have fallen into the habit of wait
|ing. and they show very clearly that
they are going to try to stick 1t out as
long as the big fellows persist in holding
off and doing nothing except to auto
matically support the market against
raids. If the Supreme Court at Wash
:ngton does not act very soon Wall street
will have to organize another Coxey army
and march on the Capitol.
Several times this week leading opera
tors with bearish procivities have tested
the strength OF the market by making
cautious drives at points they thought
mis- ht be vulnerable. They have picked
out the cats and dogs to make assaults
upon and in many cases met with con-
siderable success Emboldened by that
they turned their attention to the favor
|ites and drove them off a point or two.
Then they went up against something
hard and to their discomforture although
not entirely to their surprise. they ran
into massed buying orders. They could
go no further,

in prices Of railroad and industrial stocks
since the high prices reached the f1rst OF

The proposed issuance of 10 per cent
additional Pennsylvania railroad stock at
par will increase the capitalization of
that company $41,OO0,OOO, bringing the
total up to 1853 100000 That was an
other incident which was passed over
almost without notice.

Short Account Enlarged.

The net result Of their experiments was
an enlargement Of the short account,
which is considered to the technical ad-
vantage of the situation, inasmuch as the
shorts have to buy back the stocks they
sold, thereby creating a demand and
making for higher prices. The experience,
although not satisfactory, has not in the
least changed the minds of the bear
party, which is just as strong as ever in
the belief that the market will have to
split wide open before any material adj
vance can occur. In this they are helped
by a knowledge that general business all
over the country is in process of renewed
contraC ton.
The iron and steel trade, which is under
closest scrutiny. shows a marked loss in
activity The falling away in orders
since the first of the month in most of
the products of that industry amounts to
IA bout 20 per cent, according to the au-
thoritieS. Railroad traffic is also of di-
minished volume. as measured by the
number of idle cars. Stocks of copper
metal continue to pile up and the output
Is increasing insead of diminishing, as
the gentlemans agreement had ordained.
Tarfn agitation is upon the country and
that is beginning to be disturbing fac
tor, even down in Wall street, which UNI
Til very few days ago tried to ignore
that issue. The offsetting circumstances
are an increasing supply Of idle money in
all the important fiscal centars of Europe
and America and the indications of a
purpose on the part of the farmers of
every state in the Union to break all crop
recordS-weather permitting.

Desirable borrowers have no trouble In
that are almost unbelievable. Nine

now in New York as in London or Paris
and the United States has a credit bal
ance in London and continental banks of

drawing down, largely on account of the
