NBEW 'YORK, May 25.—The fact that to-day was a holiday in London and that Monday would be a holiday both in New York and London had the effect of curtailing speculative operations i, stocks. There were two conflict- ing reports in circulation, both coming by dif- ferent routes from the same point in the West Indigs. One allezed that the United States fleet had been sunk and that Admiral Samp- #on had been kilied, and another that Com- modore Schley had penetrated the harbor of Santfago and sunk the Spanish fleet. The mar- ket sold off on the first and recovered on the gecond, but the dealings -were small. Rock | Island and People’s Gas were pushed up again, | after a prellminary reaction, apparently to shake off some weak following. Their price was sustained with some difficulty at the close and was manipulated by the evident purpose of making the last prices the best. The same | thing was manifest in other stocks. Great Northern continued its upward course and 84ded nearly 5 points to its recent remarkable advance. Illinois Steel rose 4 points addl tional, but reacted 2 points. There was a re- action after the recovery coincident with the publication of the bank statement, which was on jts face favorable. The market for stocks closed near top prices under manipulation late n the session and generally a fraction above night's closing price. Prices of stocks show substantial gains over those of a week ago. though in the latter part of the week there was a falling off in activity and & somewhat settled tendency. The advance early In the week was largely based on the pnfounded report that the Spanish fleet in West Indlan waters had already been annihi- jated, The later resistance to decline has been neouraging to the bull element and the be- of I8 general In Wall street that the power- mess of Cervera’s fleet to do mischief has demonstrated and its ultimate defeat by | tritugal, 96 test, | grow ore bearish.

CHICAGO, May 28.—At the start In wheat there was more or less covering by shorts, in ' view of the holiday on Monday, and the nervous condition for trade seemed to be dis- posed to even up. The demand from that in- terest was respondible for the early strength, but when buyers were satisfied and withdrew trade became sluggish. The bear news multi- plying and the bull interest getting rio support, tie -selling rush became aggressive and. Vig- orous and was rushed ‘with' such energy that everything was swept before it. _Liquidation soon’ became as urgent as the .short selling, the market getting demoralized.’ The impres- sion bécame general that Leiter had lost con- trol and was no longer able to fesist the nat- ural course of prices. There ‘was no Liver- pool cables, but the crop_news. continued to St. Louis “reported new wheat already in that market. There was con-. siderable reaction during the last half hour.’ as the shorts showed a strong disposition to even up. July closed 23%4@3%c lower and Sepe. tember lost lige. May closed at $1 75. The weather was too wet for the good of corn and there was some activity on the part of the bull crowd. When twheat broke eorn went with it, but there was a complete re- ‘covery later.
