Depressing Qualities of Yesterday Allevinted and Tone Firmer. NEW YORK, May 13.—Today's stock mar- ket was a dull and narrow affair between professional traders for the most part, but the stronger tone was unmistakable. To & large extent this was a natural recovery from yesterday's weakness. The influences which weakened the market then were alleviated today and there was a consider- able demand from the professionals stocks sold short yesterday on unfavorable developments. The unfavorable crop condi- {lone May 1 induced considerable realizing hort interest. Pressure against the deciine. was also exerted by the cirouls ton of rumors ot & favorable turn in the anthracite strike situation, but no inform- stion on this polnt was forthoomin tuation was somewha Talthough 1oans were made aga gh ss 8 per cent. The forelan Danking ouses were very large lenders in the mar- ket and the continued. deciine. in exchange reflected further borrowing from foreign money markets, under which the money rate weakened.

The quality of the offerings was fairly good and the market as a whole was In very satisfactory condition. Packers seemed to be fairly anxious for the better grades of beef steers this morn- ing and as a result the market was some- Bat "active and could safely be quoted steady to strong on the beiter grades. That ‘was espec ally true of the choice e cattle and also of the prime light- wel.?m The medium grades of cattle were not in quite as good demand, but till they sold without much trouble at fully steady prices as compared with yes- terday. Practically everything at all de- sirable was out of first hands in good season, The better grades of cows and heifers ‘were also in !ooq request this mornin and sellers had no trouble in selling sucl kinds at steady to strong prices. The same as was the case with steers, the medium kinds and common stuff did not sell quite as treely as the better grades, but at the same time the prices pald looked steady. ‘There was not enough change in the rices pald for bulls, veal calves and stags ro be worthy of mention. ‘There were only a few stockers and feed- ers on sale this morning, but the more de- sirable offerings sold freely at fully stead rices. When it came to the common an fightwetght stuft ‘the market was less ac- tive the same as usual, but as offerings ‘were limited sellers dll‘)oled of practically thing they had 00d season at steady prices.
