STILL QUIET IN
OLD NEW YORK
Prospective Bond Sales of
City and State Cause
Some Comment.
STEEL 1
MAY
Illinois Central Way Down
While Wabash Is
Drop Some.

New York, May 9.-From start to
finish the stock market was a dull and
negligible affair. Trading was light
n plainly professional and for hours
the market manifested no definite
trend.
The day brought no developments
and witnessed no currences of mo-
ment. but the unsettled undertone be-
spoke a waiting attitude on the part
of the trading public. The govern
ment report on the crop situation
formed h basis of some discussion.
Their remains little room for doubt
that winter wheat has suffered great
damage. some of which may be made
up In the spring product.
n result of the New York CITY
bond sale also was the subject of
much comment among bankers and
investors. Semi-official announcement
that the state of New York intends to
invite bids for some SEA, 900, 900 of
bonds in the early part of the coming
month excited little enthusiasm,
Other incidents to which the fnan-
clal district mildly applied itself in
n course of h session were the fur
ther conferences of the eastern rail-
way managers relative to the demands
OF the locomotive engineers and fire.
men and the riots in the anthracite
coal fields, the latter suggesting an in
definite suspension of operations in
that industry.
Advices from Chicago stated that
Jobbers had advanced prices of bar
plates and structural steel with the
expectations that the United States
steel corporation would increase its
stock prices. This was not confirmed
in authoritative quarters. but a rise of
three dollars per ton in seamless tubes
was announced by one of the steel cor.
poration's most important subsidiaries.
Inc copper producers submitted
their report for April. but the state
ment was of little Importance aside
from disclosing a decided increase in
the quantity Of metal on hand, the re-
suit primarily. of A falling off in for
eign demand.
The copper market has undergone
some slight reverses recently with a
fractional decline from prices of a
fortnight back.
Apart from a sudden break in H.
linois Central. which sold down to
within a fraction of it's lowest point
since 1919, and was probably due to
damages sustained by the Mississippi
floods, the market showed general inn
pio'eiiieLt anu greater ACTIVITY IN the
last hour. Closing prices indicated a
degree Of steadiness, save for reading
and steel.
American stocks in London reflected
the reactionary tendency of securities
in general abroad.
The bond market was irregular and
narrow. Wabash Is lost some of yes
terday's rise. Total sales, par value
aggregated s3.019.OOO.
U. S. government bonds were un-
changed on call.

Chicago. May 9.-The Inter- Ocean
says this morning:
"a bullish construction was put on
the government report by a majority
of the leading wheat traders. even
the most conservative looking at it
that way after a careful examination
of h details. 1t was generally as-
serted last night that the break of
2 1-2 cents from the close Tuesday
put the market in better shape for
an advance and it was declared by
best judges of the market conditions
that the wheat had passed into better
hands. Spectators who have made
big winnings on the recent advance,
loading up and are not expected to
sell except at higher prices.
Corn.
THE corn traders have assumed a
scalping position and are working in.
"A large portion of the receipts are
showing more or less hot corr which
has to be sold at heavy discounts.
The country offerings have shut off
and in h face of opposition by local
bears the market seems to be able
to take care of itself. This was the
view taken by the bulls yesterday,
The bears, however. said that it
should be sold on every advance"

BUT
CROP

The trade had Il variety of opinions
on the government report, which caus-
ed prices to work back and forth dur
ing the session. Although not as bear
ish as some expected, We call it a very
bullish report, and il means that the
spring wheat crop must he a very
large one If this country is to raise an
average crop. At best, we can hardly
nope for anything but a moderate
crop. and any further damage to
spring or winter wheat means a very
small crop. For that reason, we be-
lieve the only safe trading position is
to buy wheat on the fair to good
breaks and accept reasonable profits
