The top figures 8t station indicaie maximum temperature for the days: those underneath it, if any, the amount of raintall, of melted snow in inches and hundredths, during ‘the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid lines, connect points of equal air pressure; iso- therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. ' The word ““hieh” means high barometric pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather: *low” refers to low. pressure. and is usually preceded d _saccompsnied by cloudy westherand rains. ows” usually first appear on the Washington comst. When the pressure is high in_the interior sud low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the cost, rain is probable; but when the “low” 1s inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of (regon is improb- able. Witha “high” in he vicinity of 1daho, and the pressure falling to the California coast, warmer weather may be cxpected in summer and coider weather in winter. ‘The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result.

HaMMOX, Local Forecast Official. NEW YORK MARKETS. Financial. NEW YORK, N. Y., May 5.—As on yesterday the stock market was one of specialties. the indus- trials figuring for the bulk of the business trams- acted. The total sales were only 104,000 shares. Tobaceo was weak throughout. and under steady pressure the stock for both accounts fell from 6834 10 6674@67%s. Leather preferred, on the other hand, was firm on rather vague reports that the directors intended declaring a dividend shortly. Bay State Gas started off with a rise of 11 to 38, fell 10 31 and rallied (0 32%6@3114. Laclede Gas and Rubber were heavy. The former broke 314 to 34 on a faise rumor that the case involving the charter of the company had been decided againstit. Lacer on a rally to 2714 ensued. Rubber, com- mon, dropped 134 to 23'and the preferred 334 to 8014, the announcement that ex-President Brani- gan has organized an Ovposition company having indnced further liquidacions. Cotton Oil, common and preferred, were higher on the statement that the directors had deciared the regular semi-annual dividend of 8 per.cent on the latter. The usually active ratiway list showed no change of import- ance, aithough the tendency of prices was down. ward. London operations were {nsignificant, but Jocal iraders were disposed o espouse the short side of the account, because of engagements of gold for Tharsday’s stcamers and the impression that additional amounts will be forwarded to Eu- Tope on Saturday.

CHICAGO, 111, May 5.—The trend of senti- ment in wheat this morning was in favorofa rally. Theory was that prices had suffered enough lately and that & short interest of some import- ance had been created. On the curb a slight gain | from the close of last night was made and the im- provement was conveyed Lo the regular opening. 1t was not maintained, however, the driving being 100 tame to be effective. The weather prediction of rain for the Northwest communicated the only supporting power. Receipts at Chicago were 26 cars, and 82,100 bushels were withdrawn from store. The Northwest had 531 cars, against 641 last Tuesday and 389 a year ago. Liverpool open- | ing cables were quiet anid unchanged. Later ones came with an advance of lu@ld, this market re- covering in sympathy and making a gain of about iYge. Madstreet's repurted_a decrease in the worid's available supply of 4,375,000 bushels. The Pa- cific Coast decreased for the month 640,000 bush- els, which amount was probably & part of the world’s reduction. Paris closing cables quoted flour 15 centimes lower and wheat 15 centimes higher to unchanged. Antwerp was unchanged, and Berlin 115 to 2 marks lower. Atlantic sea. board clearances were 225,987 bushels, including wheat and flour. The full improvement was not malntained, & reaction in prices taking place dur- ing tve closing moments of the session. July wheat openei from 617c@6134c, sold between 27¢, closing at’ 6214c, 55C OVer yester- ated receipts for L0-morrow, five cars. C heat guided corn throughout the ses- sion, which was of a very dull character. Al- though the receints (486 cars) were large, exceed- ing the estimate by 51 cars, the market dis- regarded the fact at the opening, first prices ex- hibiiing a fair degree of firmness. An easier feel- ing succeeded, wheat receding at the same time. Further along in the session there was a rally through sympathy with the leading market, and the strength continued to prevail during the rest of the day. Bradstreet's reported a decrease in availabie supplies of 4,261,000 bushels. With- drawals from store were 297,071 bushels. Liver- pool cables were 14d lower for 8bot and unchanged for futures. ExXport clearances amounted to 228,442 bushels. July corn opened at 29%4c, sold between 2914@298,¢, closing at 2014@2954c, Ys@l4c higher than_ yesterday. Estimated re- celpts for (0-morrow, 125 cars. OATS—Moved guietly and without attracting any t00 much attention. The tone was usual, de- rived from the surroundings, wnile the business was purely local. Receipts were 206 cars. There were no withdrawals from stors. Bradstreet's gave a decrease in stocks of 1.530,000 bushels. July oats closed 14c per bushel higher. Estimated receipts for to-morrow, 100 cars. FLAX — Was easy. Cash, %9c; May, 8dc; July, 86%4c; September, 88@8334c. Receipta were 4 cars. PRuVISIONS—Product was lacking in life and energy. The tone was a reproduction of that of the hog market, with likewise some reference to the action of grain. At firs: firmness was notable, but early In the session prices slipped away. offer- ings being moderate and the demand indifferent. Later a steadier tone was presented, with which the improvement in grain had much to do. July pork ciosed a shade higher. July lard unchanged and July Ribs 5c higher. BUTTER—The butter market was firmer to- day. “Receipts were falr, and there was a good de- mand from all sources. Creameries—Extras, 1534c; firsts, 14@15c. Ladles—Extras, 9c; others unchanged. EGGS—Offerings were liberal, but buyers were backward. "The feeling was easy, and fresh stock ranged from 8¢ to 9c P doven. MONEY—Wes 6% on call and 6@7% on time loans.
