PARIS BUSINESS DISCUSSED Negotiations Sald to Be Progressing for Sale of Bonds to Fore Bankers—Sharp Dreak in Whe | NBW YORK, May 23.—Today's stock mar- | omal ket was a dlurpolnlmenl to those who took on stocks In the latter part of last week in the expectation that & broadening of demand and a rise in prices were to be Tooked for this week. The sagging tendency of prices was difectly due to selling to tealize by such disappointed holders, while the expected demand was not in evidence. The deeper causes for the gotion of the market, or Its lack of action) still remain obscure. The tone became decidedly weak by the end of the day. The alleged progress of negotlations for the =sale of bonds to Paris bank- ers was a subject of discussion again, with the old assertion that officlal announce- ment was imminént. was also in- sistence on the prospect that the old pro- o listing Uniteq States on the Faris urse was near its consummation. The stock market was not influenced by these claims nor by the reports of signs of re- vival in the iron trade. The sharp break in wheat prices bore out the news of increasingly favorable crop con- Itions, but allowance w de for the ificuity of the speculative position in the market. The evidence of liquidation there I8 looked on as secondary in importance ) nncn fl"",} to the good progress of the crop sel New York banks report considerable dis- counting here by outside banks, while de- mand for mercantile paper is Indifferent, Oowing to considersble resort by merchants to their own banks for accommodation on the plea that o at this time are slow. The recelvership for the Chic; City railways, *fioe following that of the king Valley property, was disliked as an evi- dence of the miscarriage of plans of lead- ing financlal groups, rather than for any direct effects on the market.
