EINANCISL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET FLUCTUATED.


 New York, May 13.-Stocks were ir. regular at the outset of today's session, firm to strong during the intermediate period and heavy at the close, when re- a-lzing sales virtually wiped out 1 to 3 point gains made by various specula- live favorites. Steels, oils, motors, feathers, utilities and several of the popular miscellaneous specialties were prominent the con- structive side while tobaccos, shippings and some of the transportations devel- oped more reactionary tendencies. These gained the upper hand in the final hour. Sales amounted to 825, ,000 shares
 Lower money rates, the stronger po- sition of the federal reserve banks and the decision of the federal reserve board t5 extend acceptances of import and ex- port bills to six months were among the factors which gave impetus to the mar ket
 Cal money opened and renewed into next week at 1-2 per cent as compared with the recent quotation of ptr cent. Banks, including interior institutions, were disposed to lend more freely on short time loans and commercial paper Less apprehension was excited by the question of additional dividend reduc- lions or suspensions and investment conditions were regarded as more sta ble because of the success which attend ed latest corporate offerings.
 Foreign exchange was another stabfl. izing influence, rates on London and most of the continent holding at or neal latest high records and in several note. worthy instances establishing new max. imums. This was true of French, Bel gian, Italian and such remittances Marks also made substantial improve rnent, but sterling w8s barely firm. Span Ish, Greek and Scandinavian bills brok, sharply.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, May 13.-Wheat averaged higher in price today chiefly as a re- suit of frost predictions and renewal of unfavorable crop reports. The close was unsettled at the same as yesterdays s finish to 3-4c. advance, with May 143 1-4c to 143 1-2 and July 115 1-2 to 115 3-4. Corn gained 1-S@1-4 to 3-4c. Net oats 1-4@3-Sc, and provisions 10@2Oc,
 Strength in the wheat market devel- oped quickly after some depression caused by absence of frost which had been expected last night. Indications however, that the northwest and west would have freezing temperatures to- night led to anxiety lest the spring wheat just coming up would be injured. Mean while advices from field experts in Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri tended also to encourage buying on account oi deterioration evident in the condition o1 the winter crop. Toward the last oi the day, nevertheless, profit taking sales became rather general and best prices
 failed to hold. Rains at some points fl Oklahoma were regarded as against thu bulls. Passage of the Tincher bil
 through the house at Washington count
 ed also as an incentive to sell.
 Corn and oats were governor largel,
 by sympathy with wheat. Country of ferings of corn were generally held
 som what above the market
 i nomand for provisions was stimulate
 a little by the strength of grain.

ACADEMY PLAYS AT
 sTONINGTON TO-DAY

N. F. A. is scheduled to meet Stoning- ton High this afternoon at Stonington. This will be league game and is consid- cred important by Coach Mckay. AL though N. r. A. had little trouble in win min goyer them on May 4th at Norwich he will take no chances and will see that his men put forth their best efforts.
 Hitchon will probably be sent in against the seasiders. He is going at top form and should have little trouble in turning in a win. He will have Cornell as bat tery mate.
 The rest of the team will line up as usual. It looks as though Harwood has won the right field position. His work in recent games has been steady and de- pendable.
 The trip will be made by bus, leaving Engler's corner at 12 o'clock, standard time. It is hoped that strong band of rooters will take in the contest. The game may prove uninteresting but if the Stonington fans are in their usual form we can promise at least one good fight.
