FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
REACTION IN PRICES.
Selling Movement Resumed, Causing
 Steady Decline in Values.

New York, May 6.-Plices reacted in the stock market today. Last weeks selling movement was resum- ed on a more generous scale during the morning and for a time quoted values declined steadily Pressure was greatest against United States Steel, which yielded three points before noon, while losses almost as great were recorded by other standard shares. The movement in Steel was concurrent with the formal opening of the hearing in this city of the suit of the government against that cor poratiOn, a fact which may have ex- ercised something more than senti mental influence. Other factors that helped in the unsettlement included the probability of fresh political com l pications arising from the presiden- tial primaries in Maryland, the forth coming government crop report, from which little of an encouraging charac- | ter Is expected, the strike of the west ern railway freight handlers and the i increasing loss and privation caused | by the disastrous floods along the | Mississippi river. To all these might 1 be added the fact that the recent bull market had evidently gone stale and that technical conditions as whole favored reversal of the inopportune movement which at no time had more than modicum of public support
 In the early afternoon the list man ifested some improvement in most branches, with especial strength in Reading, while Steel recovered little more than a part of its fall. The sell ing pressure relaxed decidedly and the
 market then appeared to be undergo ing process of assimilation. There was also some realizing of profits by the shorts, whoEe operations in the early period doubtless accelerated the decline. The partial rally was fol- lowed by another drive against Steel,
 which sent 1t to it's lowest of the day, and Union Pacific also reflected fur ther heavy selling. From this level the list again made some recovery, but Reading almost alone of-the spec ulative issues succeeded in making a net gain on the day. The closing was comparatively dull and heavy. Trans actions in Steel constituted over one- third of the business, which approx imated 900,000 shares. Reading and Union Pacific helped materially tc
 make up the total, which was the largest in some days.
 London was a heavy seller here, al
 though it's closing prices for Ameri-
 cans showed gains in excess of losses
 The usual weekly advices from rail
 way traffic managers was mildly op-
 timistic in that the movement of mer.
 chandise continues to be very large.
 Some slight firmness for time mon
 ey other than ninety days was reported here a condition which may be at
 trihuted to the preparations now mak-
 ing to meet the large New York city
 bond offering.
 The bond market was irregular fol the greater part of the session, with {
 downward tendency, Total sales, pal

tice to him to say that while he would like to go to Stockholm he is earning his way through college and does not feel that he can afford to take the time to go to Sweden. And. then, he has always wanted to spend one sum- mer in the woods far away from ev- erything athletic.
 Jones just missed going to Maine last summer. He had just signed 8 contract for engineering work before he received the offer The miller found his summer was of little benefit to him from a physical standpoint. and he seized the opportunity for the camp ing this year as his last chance be- fore taking up his chosen work of en- gineering. Jones will not be asked to do anything in camp this summer in the line of coaching in athletics.
