NEW YORK, April 13.—The fact that to-dey’s mdjournment of the Stock Ex- change was to be until next Monday and that of the London Exchange until next Tuesday prompted the closing up of speculative con- tracts to-day. Profeesional traders are averse 1o et any time, and at this time especially they bave in mind the varying possibilities of the in South Africa, the war in the sugar trade, the showing to be made by the weekly bank statement on Beturday and the possibility of g0ld exports by Saturday’s steamers. As realizing has been going on to a large extent this week most of the uncovered contracts were on the short side and the demand to cover was un important factor in rallying prices. In sadition the pools which exist in & number of stocks adopied aggressive tectics for an ad- vance, taking sdvantage of the disinclination of the bears to extend thelr commitments on the eve of the holiday. After the demand from the shorts hed been satisfied the peol manipu- lators began to find themselves alone in the bidding for stocks, with a steadily augmenting burfen of realizing =ales as prices reached the higher jevel. The process of bidding up prices was therefore discontinued and market lapsed into comparative dullness and sluggish- ness. The industrials moved quite independ- ently of the general market and none of them occupled & very comspicuous place in the trad- ing. The most notable movement of the day was that in Missouri Pacific, which on buying #lleged to be for manipulaiive purposes was carried up nearly four points and closed at the top. This had & sympathetic effect on the otber members of the Southwestern Eroup. Tnion Pacific was very heavily absorbed and was carried up to 60, the other transcontinental lines, &,cluflln‘ the Atchisons, responding in y. ';-:'E’:'a;m‘?m una Ohio stocks and the Nor- fork and Western stocks rose comspicuously, the former an very large dealings snd with e, except in Southern Arizona. Light | over Eastern Oregon and West- | keeping open contracts for so long a period | | well-sustained strength. The grangers were comparatively quiet. With the exception of | Baltimore and Qhlo and Missouri Pacific gains were not well maintained and the closing was | decidedly unsteady and below the best. The industrials as & rule were heavy, Sugar, Peo- ple's Gas, Federal Steel, the Steel and’ Wire stocks and other stocks of the steel group showing acute weakness at different times. Third Avenue showed the effect of disappoint- | ment over the terms of the lease to Metro- politan. General Electric was an exception | and enjoyed a net gain of 3%. In spite of ai easing of the London money rate continuous buying of stocks for London account and the unprecedented balances in this country’s fa- | vor, as disclosed by the March foreign trade staiement, sterling exchange moved up an ad- ditional fraction to-day and all of the usual authorities are at & loss to explain the movement. A favorable bank statement is con- | sidered assured owing to the large gains in | the sub-treasury, but ease in the local money | market will facilitate gold exports. There was ! moderate wetivity and strength in the bond | market. Total sales, par value, $2,205,000. United States ¥'s registered declined % in the bid price. Prices of stocks have moved down- | ward during the week, with the exception of a | few stocks affected by special features of strength or which were manipulated to sustain the general list for purposes of realizing. There has been some liquidation, due in part to the demand from bears to cover short contracts. | The market has been almost entirely in the | hands of professional operators during the four days on which business was done and prices are not an index to public _sentiment regard- ing the business outiook. These stocks were | €014 because the considerable advance in prices | Offered attractive profits to early buyers and | the question arose whether the rise had not | fairly discounted the prosperous conditions. The character of some of the selling revealed a conviction on the part of those with zood means of information of the desirability of realizing. The admission of Pennsylvania of- | ficlals that advantage had been taken of the existiug high level of prices to market some | of the stock in the company's treasury was | accepted as a_clear intimation that the price of the stock had gone as high as was war- ranted When speculative operators in other stocks sousht to take thelr profits they dis- covered that the semi-investment demand, based on the dividend return offered by stocks. had largely ceased at the high level attained by some, The professional bear traders are always on the alert for such a condition of affairs, and they have been prompt to take advantage of it this wegk by selling stocks short and taking the market away from those seeking to realize. As conditions of business continue favorable, it is fair to assume that the decline in prices will be arrested before the late advance has been entirely wiped out. Already bear traders find offerings decreasing in volume on a decline, and commission houses made bids for stocks at a level below the market. The presence of an aggressive bear element in the market and the reactionary tendency shown has prompted those seeking to secure stocks to withdraw their buy- ing orders in the hope of getting in at a lower level of prices. The movement of prices in some cases indicates that the bear aggression ie to afford opportunity for securing etocks at | lower prices in greater volume than is neces- | sary for the mere covering of short contracts. While these symptoms indicate that the limits of the reaction are not far off, there is nothing to indicate whether a general advance will be renewed. Speculative opinion evidently hesi- tates and waits for further developments to point the way for a further movement. Great uncertainty is felt regarding the future of the money market. Last week's disappointing bank statement has had a continuing influence. and the mystery of the small increase in cash re serv in view of the heavy accretions by res #on of sub-treasury operations remains unex- plained. The continued outgo of funds from the sub-treasury to the market has, for this reeson, failed to have much influence on senti- | ment Although rates for money this week have continued low, indicating easy conditions, there | has nevertheléss been €ome calling of loans and consequent shifting, which of necessity causes | ome "disturbance in the stock market. The continued rise in sterling exchange toward the gold export point has disturbed sentiment, as fears are entertained that an outward move- mert of gold would stiffen the money rate here. As a matter of fact, a small shipment of gold | was made to Buenos Ayres on Tuesday, which | was for London’s benefit and which 1h effect | represented a control by London of the inter- | national exchange. This movement of sterling exchanges has detracted from the effect of the | much-paraded London buying of American se- curities. Much_mystery surrounds this move- ment. In New York it is attributed to foreign- | ers who carry their holdings with money bor- | rowed in New York. In London it Is attributed to Americans who borrow money in London to | carry their holdings. Only very light shipments | of securities from New York to London can be | traced through the usual channels. It is re- ported, on the other hand, that the high-priced | American rallroad stocks have been coming | | home in larger velume. There has been some demand for exchange to | gy, the instaliment due last Monday on the | ish war loan by American subscribers, but the amount ealled for is not sufficlent to ac- count for the strength of sterling. This strength | 18 the more remarkable, considering the foreign trade balance, which has.again reached unpre- | cedented figures for March, according to the | | results foreshadowed by the Government's pre- | iminary figures. | This and last week's shrinkage in the bank: surplus reserves has not avalled to check t | upward movement of exchange. Uneasiness over | thie development has been a potent factor in causing hesitation in the stock market. | _Business in bonds has been on a dimintshin | scale, but prices have been better tumlnts | than 1n_stocks, 2 ’ | bars.

Shortly after the opening May touched 67c, but from that on the course of the market was downward with a few and feeble interruptions. The market was fairly steady up to noon, when the bears began ham- mering and as the stop-loss wheat came out touched 86%c. Early there was a fair demand in the pit, but later the situation was reversed. Duluth réported some export business and re- ported a likelihood of foreigners partaking of our liberal store, but the report falled to affect the locals. May closed weak, %@7sc under yes- terday, at 6Bisc. The ‘selling of corn to-day was mainly in small lots. A decline, which was started by lower cables, wheat weakness and favorable crop outlook, brought out a deal of stop-luss orders, The price descended on lack of demand. There was an early bulge which carried May up Sc, caused by open buying by recent liquidating longs, but the gain was lost. May closed weak, %@lc lower. Oats were weak and were generally neglected. May closed % @¥c down. The provisions market was generally active and strong, though May Pork early showed a zigzagging tendency. Hogs were lower at the yards, grains depressed and the packing was larger than the brevious week, all of which was not encouraging to holders. There was an especially good demand for lard. May lard closed 1215@15¢ up, May ribs unchanged. May pork closed at $1237%. The leading futures ranged as follow: ARTICLES. Open. |High.| Low.
