Of futures sustaining declines Of

The weakness. displayed by
stocks was in some measure re-
sponsible for the softer tone OF

The main source of support
consisted of some heavy price
fixing orders which had accumu-
lated over the weekend, and
which included the purchase of
about 10000 bales by a firm
which was credited with acting
for foreign spinners.

totaled less than $85 900, 900 for the
first four months Of this year, compared
with over $70o,OO0o0O in the same
period of 1880.
The future as to the foreign list is
uncertain. Sir Otto Niemeyer'S investi-
cations in Brazil and the work of the
Kemmerer commission in Peru and
elsewhere have not as yet resulted in
any definite proposals. Dollar bonds
to the amount of over 81 SOC, 900 900
are outstanding against the credit of
South American republics. Some of
these will possibly be met in full, but 1t
is becoming increasingly evident that
there will have to be some compromise
agreements made, as has been done In
the case of Mexico.
The domestic market. for the i'm
mediate future, is overshadowed by
uncertainty in regard to the general
business situation and the action of
stocks, and by the fact that virtually no
investors can be found who are willing
to place their money In anything but
gilt-edged bonds. The United States
Government Is able to borrow at record
rates in such a market and will un-
doubtedly have to- do some heavy bor-
its deficit Municipalities whose Sc
curities are in demand and whose bor-
rowings usually find their way into
business via water, road, highway,
sewer and similar contracts do not
show any disposition to issue bonds as
fast as the market can absorb them. A
still higher range of municipal bond
prices is seen.

NEW YORK. April 30.-A rally just
before midday brought about increased

an irregular opening
Public utilities led this upSwing. but
petroleums, If some CT the leading
Standard Oil units be excepted, remained
under pressure. Electric Bond &, Share
gained more than point on the bulge

that amount
Vacuum and Imperial Oil stood out in
the Standard Oil group. The formers
sales are running less than per cent
below the same period year ago. which
makes the management feel confident
Of maintaining the present dividend
payment. Imperial OILS business in the
first quarter of 1881 was more than 20
per cent above the same 1880 period,
because of the early opening up Ct roads
and consequent increased gasoline de-

Previous to the rally a few of the &C
tive utilities, including Utilities Power

of similar grade. eased to new lows for
the year This was true also of such
industrialS as Singer Manufacturing
American Laundry Machinery and Ford
Motor of Canada.
Declaration OF the regular common
quarterly dividend of 40 cents a share
by Sherwin williams of Canada brought
a fractional rally into that issue. The
appearance of a block of 10000 shares
of Prudential Investors at 1912, I'M
changed, was a MONDAY feature of in
vestment trust trading.
The vigorous rally OF Vacuum and
Imperial started extensive buying in the
Standard Oil group during the third
hour. which improved quotations OF
Humble Oil. Standard of Indiana and
Standard Of Kentucky. In the mis-
cellaneous petroleums Gulf Oil came
dangerously near its previous low be-

ahead. Memphis Natural Gas was slow
to respond to its sales report
