NEW YORK, May 14—There was a very obvious disposition to-day in speculative cir- occasional | fresh westerly wind. | ond hour | dations and foreign seiling, | granulatead here for London account, which caused a de- pression. London's Fust = was due to the plain speaking of the Bris Secretary of State for the Colonies, Mr. Chamberlain, as to the llkelihood of a Buropedn coalition against Great Britain. Apparently mo account was taken by dealers ni securities of the speaker's assurance that intervention in favor of Spain would not be assented to by England. All turned on the expected news of Admiral Samp- | son, and the depression in London would pro ably not be valuable in a purely sympethetic way, but American securities.offer a particu- larly good market just now, so that forel holders . were glad to realize on them. The consequent losses in the international stocks decided the tone of the market. Offerings for London account were well absorbed in spite of the prevailing dullness, and prices were lifted above the London parity. - The strength of sugar on the adyance of prices of the product and the favorable bank statement and hardening prices in the sec- wrought a few net gains. Frac- tional net losses were the rule at the close, The latter part of the week has been & reac- tion in the stock market, but last prices are still substantially above last Saturday, execpt in some of the specialties. Net gains range from a fraction up to 4 points. This week the demand for money from the interior has practically ceased, and some of the bankers report that they have received ship- | ments of currency from their out-of-town cor- respondents. Deposits have Increased over 37,000,000, and the loan and cash reserve has expanded so as to more than keep pace. Rates for time | money collapsed to 3@6 per cent for periods | as long as three months; cail .oans were made at 1% per cent, and there is active bidding for commercial paper at 5 to 6 per cent. It is evi- dent that financial institutions all over the country feel themselves amply provided for to meet the demand of customers in subscribing to_the new Government bonds, if issued. Naturally gold has ceased to come from abroad. Exchange has risen to $4 851 per ound sterling, and is being held instead of rawn, as the money commands a high rate abroad. The country’s money supply has been vastly expanded, and with the return of con- fidence and extension of credit there is the likelihood of great increase of industrial and speculative activity. The bond market has moved in sympathy with stocks, the latter part of the week show- ing some reaction from earlier strength and activity. United States new 4s coupon ad- vanced ¥ per cent; the 5s and the old 4s cou- pon % per cent, and the old 4s registered % per cent in the bid price.

They reckoned with- out thelr host, however. Through various brokers Leiter graduaily absorbed offerings and shortly before the close the short sellers found themselves pocketed. In their anxiety to even up July was advanced steadily to $107. Half an hour before the close a realizing movement set in which could not be stemmed. July went off half at & quotation touching $1 04 just be- fore the gong sounded. A slight rally carried it back to $1 041, closing with sellers at that rice, a net gain of ¥o. May opened 20 cents fower at’s1 30, the price practically nominal, the recession of 20c being found necessary on a_sale of 15,000 bushels. Leiter picked up the offering, and on his evident willingness to sup- port the price it was advanced at the close to 31 443, showing, however, a net loss of Gkc. The heavy. receipts of Corn and the opening weakness of Wheat made a_heavy market for the former at the opening. The rally In Wheat and provisions later in the day and the good cash demand caused a change in the tone and the recovery of the early loss with an addi- tion of e or so besides. July closed at a net galn_of %@k Oats ruled very nervous. net loss of c. e Break o Wheat and Corn at the start encouraged some bears on provisions to maie a savage drive at their own market, the con- sequence of which was a considerable loss at the start. Buyers soon took advantage of the bargains being offered and absorbed them all, and when more was offered the product was hard to buy without advancing prices. The latter alternative was accepted and prices had to go up. At the close Pork was 5¢ higher for the day and Lard without change and Ribs 5¢ higher.

NEW YORK, May 14—The Financler says The New York banks, according to thelr state- ment, hold a surplus of nearly $47,000,000, the largest reported since last July. The down- ward tendency of the money miarket finds a logical explanation in the statement, with its reported heavy gains of cash. The movement to the interior, which has been a constant fac- tor in the situation for weeks past, almost if not quite wholly at an end, and the dimin- ishing probability of an early bond issue has brought banks to the point where they prefer to put their money to use rather than allow it to lie idle. The Government continues its heavy _dis- bursements, and gold imports are also adding to the stock of money in sight. The whole outlook, therefore, favors an easy market, not only here but elsewhere. Z The expansion in loans is a favorable indi- cation of better business conditions, and while some of the increase reported for the week is due to stock exchange activity, there is more doing in mercantile paper, so the banks have not been slow to increase their investment in that line at rates considerably under those quoted for some time past. The Natlonal bank reports now being made are expected to show unusually high reserves heid by the in- terior banks, and this will be important in de- termining the course of money for the rest of the season. In New York the banks have fal- len off heavily in principal items, but in Chi- cago and other citles galns scem to be the rule. A reflex movement to this center, of course, demoralizes the market, but once it is known that a bond issue is not to be made for some time to come, such a movement is bound to follow. The business conditions throughout the United States are more favorable, however, for the use of a great deal of money that 1§ otherwise idle capital here. The gains In de- posits for the week were made in great part by four or five of the leading banke and the large increase is also traceable to them, but the causes operating to procure them will soon be reflected In other Institutions with results not at all difficult to foresee, LONDON WOOL SALES.
