ALEXANDER McADIE, Tocal Tarecast Official. e EASTERN MARKETS. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. NEW YORK, May 17.—To-dav's advance in the price of stocks was the result of a move- ment of professional operators to renew the upward course of prices. These operators argued that the market had undergone a fair degree of reaction during yesterday and the latter part of last week. The reaction had in- vited a fair short interest and had wiped out the holders on the long side of speculation. | This represented an fmprovement in the tech- | nical conditions of thé market. The day's trading started off with the advantage of an improvement in London, where prices of Amer- ican securities were advanced a sharp fraction all around. There was also some buying for London at the opening here, but London after- ward turned seller when prices had risen. There are a number of stocks which enjoy the special support of friends and inside interests and these imparted firmness by sympathy to the rest of the market. The combination of these circumstances made the bulls feel war- ranted in gubhlng up the prices of their f; vorites without waiting for more deflnite d velopments of the naval situation In West In- dian waters. There was no evidence of any large outside interest and any slackening of the professional demand precipitated dullnes: The absence of outside demand was Indicate clearly also by the way in which prices fell away In the realizing movement in the final hour.. tafled from 3 to % by this movement, but net erally steady, but very quiet. firm, TALS—The metal market continues gen- At the close to- N — Warrants were called steady, with $6 75 bid and $7 asked.

CHICAGO, May 17.—After a rather fluctuation Wheat closed weak. Peace rumors had some influence, but there were apparently very clear evidences that Leiter brokers were isposed to sell all the July the market would take. Early Liverpool cables were 1%@3d higher for July. Heaviness of L.e domestio receipts, however, overshadowed in_the minds of traders the Liverpool advance. The weather map_indicated higher temperature throughout the West. Heavy rains fell in the Northwaest, where most needed. The California crop has freshened up wonderfully since last Saturday. Reports from Russla say that the state of win- ter Wheat in that country is generally satis- factory, only & few of the central districts having sufered. July opened unchanged at $1 094, ranged from $109 to $110, declined to $107 and rallied to $1 08 bid at the close. Sep- tember opened %c lower at 91ic, sold up to 2c, reacted to 89%c and closed at 89%c bid. May closed at §1 49% asked. Corn was depressed by more favorable weath- wide | er conditions and poor cash demand. July closed %c lower. Oats trade was inconsequential. July closed with a loss of . Proyisions made two turns to-day, weak at | the opening, strong later, showing an advance | of 80c over yesterday’s final quotation, caused The day's extreme advances were cur- | advances of between 1 and 2 polats for the | principal stocks still rematned. the list in point of activity. a net gain of 23 The rates for time money went lower, to 3 per cent for sixty day: days and 4 per cent for four months.
