SEVERE REACTION
IS FELT
TRADING ON STREET is NOT
HEAVY AND STOCKS TAKE
SUDDEN SLUMP.

New York, April 24-Influenced by
n number of unfavorable factors the
stock market today turned downward
rather sharply. Sentiment has been
predorninantly bearish for some time
and it required only the addltlonal
weight of the latest developments 10
turn the market from the narrow
groove which it has followed and bring
about substantial declines. Irad,ns
was not heavy, however, and pressure
was not severe, except at intervals.
While selling was mainly profess
sional it was apparent that hqquloa-
tion was in progress in some parts
of the market. This was indicated by
the heaviness of standard investment
stocks and seasoned bonds which de-
clned as readily as the speculative IS
sues. Many new records Tor the move
ment We're made and in the list were
such stocks as New York central.
Northwestern, Illinois Central ana
American Tobacco. Losses of one to
two points We're numerous with de-
clnes among the less stable INDUS
trials running as high as eight points.
Chief among the days bearlsh IN
fluences was the substantial victory
of the firemen of the eatsern roads
in their contest for higher wages
While it had been assumed that an m
crease would be granted, the award
drew attention to the higher operating
expenses which the railroads will be
called on to meet as we'll as the prob
ability of further demands from other
classes of employees. The concern felt
in Europe over the Balkan situation
was reflected in the foreign markets
and in some selling here for London
account. Reports of further extensive
applications for capital, the New
Haven inquiry in Boston and the de-
cison of the national administration
to dispatch the secretary of state to
California were other items which
the bears found useful in pulling their
way.
Bonds were again under pressure.

UNDERGROUND PUMPS
CLEAR FLOODED MINE

Wallace, April 24.-(Special)-Th
underground Gould pumps recently in

carrying their loads and together with
the tanks and snkers are fast re-
moving the water from below the
,OOO-f foot level The bulkhead on one
side has been removed and the other
one will be put out this morning. The
work of unwatering the old Frisco

Grain and Provisions,

Chicago, April 24.-Wheat weakened
today on a bearish Kansas crop re-
port. Final prices showed a net loss
of 1403S to 1-2c. Corn suffered a
net decline of Is to Lie; oats closed
is lower to 1-SM1-4c higher and pro-
visions made a net gain of 10 to u
II to 30c.
Not more than ) per cent of the
wheat acreage in Kansas will be aban-
doned, according to the report of the
state board of agriculture. The mar
ket showed some nervousness at times,
uncertainty over the European politi-
cal situation because of the crisis at
Scutari being manifest.
Primary receipts of wheat today
We're 100000 bushels against $4,000
bushels last year. Seaboard cearances
Of wheat and flour equalled 900
bushels.
Corn ruled weak during the entire
session. Some little upift came on an
improved eastern demand, but it was
only temporary. Expectation of in
creased receipts mitigated against val
ueS.
Fine growing wheat depressed oats
except the May option, in which there
was some short covering.
Light runs of hogs here and in the
west again influenced higher provision
prices. There was a good general de-
mand, especially for lard. Today's
range: ....
May wheat opened at 90 1-2 to 3-4c;
high 93c; low, 90 1-4m92 3-Sc; close,
92 1-4m92 3-Sc.
May corn opened at 55 to So 1-2c;
high, SO 3-4c; low, 55c; close, 55 lac.
May oats opened at "a 3-4c; high,
35 3-Sc; low, "a Sac; close, 35 1-Sc.

NOTES OF MINING

Mullan, april 24.-(Special-The
Hecla company at Burke has declared
dividend No. 11S, amounting to two
cents per share, or $4,000. This is the
March dividend, and brings the total
dividends this year to $4,000 and the
grand total to date, $2,7SO,O0
1t is reported in Mullan that F.
Augustus HeinZe will resume develop
ment work on the Gettysburg -Inde-
pendence property, adjoining the Fed
eral company's You Like and Morning
mines. The property has been ex-
tensively developed on deep levels
without locating the vein. The Inde-
pendence claim is one of the first To-
cations on Chloride hill, and shows a
wide vein of concentrating silver
ore on the surface. Mr. Heinze came
into the ownership of the ground
through a mortgage on the properly
for money loaned the former owners.
The property was equipped with an
electrically driven air compressor, but
this and all surface improvements
were destroyed in the forest fires OF
1910.
The damage to mining property in
the Murray district from snoWslides
last winter cannot yet be estimated
on account of the great quantities OF
snow there At the Cedar Creek COM
pany's property it has been learned
that the compressor building and ma
chinery was swept away, bu. the other
mine buildings were not injured. The
company will resume operations as
soon as they can get t, the mine
with supplies.
The Black Bear Consolidated COM
pany contemplates the erection of a
milling plant at its properIy in Cam
yen creek. The mine has been ex-
tensively developed in it's lower lev
els and is said by comp ,tent mining
engineers to show large reserves of
milling ore.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
PRICES RULE HEAVY.
oo;x Few Favorites Make Advance in
 an Uncertain Market.

New York, Jan. 12.-The hall day session yesterday closed the week or intiiffer business on the NeW Ioi stock exchange. Professional trading resulted in 8 pressure whAcn ca.Iieu some stocks down, but as usual in 8 market of a nature such ass the one that has been recorded rom day to day for some time there were faNoT- ties selected for marking up prices, ana a few advances were recorded at the close. Prices yesterday as whole were heavy and the buying vitahty was very low. The copper stocks par ticularly were conspicuous in me oe- cline and industria1s sold off easily, while rails seemed to possess greater resistance than other classes.
 In period like the present 1t was not to be supposed that any remark able strength would be developed at last week. No encouragement was o1- fered by developments, either at home or abroad, and the natural law Of seiI preservation caused traders to close out their commitments rather than carry them over. when Monday will be a day of importance should the Mime sota rate case decision be handed down. Specu1afively, this decision will offer opportunities for both sides. according to the ruling by the supreme court Also the uncertainty caused by the re- ported attitude of the incoming poi1tf- cal leaders at Albany toward stock market affairs was not helpful to a spirited bull market. and the news from abroad offered little hope for the near future in the line of optimistic speculation.
 It was not strange that during the seeond hour the market should have continued weak, with considerable &C., tivity, and that prices should have shown their lowest levels during the late trading. The stock market. like the day, was gloomy and the outlook uncertain.
