NEW YORK, 'April 12—The situation cen- about Louieville and Nashville was the t of keen interest in Wall street to-day and kept the market feverish and unsettied. The jumps of over 10 points in Chicago and Eastern Nlinois and the rise in Evansville and Terre Haute revived rumors of projects for a Chicago outlet for Louisville and the confer- ences in progress and known to the street strengthened the impression of an impending parting control of Louisville and Nashville it- seif. There was & renewal of the activity &nd strength in Colorado and Southern, which was attributed to the working out of plans for the extension of the Rock Island connections, indicated by the purchase of the Choctaw, Oklehoma and Gulf. Otherwise the principal strength was in speciaities The buoyant rise of Canadian Pacific to 120, with a relapse of e point, was not explained. The stremgth of the various rubber stocks was due to reports of proposed mergers, as were the movements in Virginia-Carolina Chemical and Cotton Ol The rise of over 4 points in International Power was due to the expectation of stock subscription rights. The strength of the mar- ket was not general and the advance after the benk statement was met by realizing, so that the closing was irregular. The cash changes in the bank statement conformed closely to the ates. The loan decrease was larger even n hoped for, but the knowlefige that large loans were transferred to the trust companies foreign lenders, left the outlook for by no means clear. - was a remarkably feverish and erratic « merket this week, which is attributed in Wall street to the speculative operations of a group of wealthy men who have realized great fortunes in the iron and steel trade and who ontrolling factors in the constituent jes of the United States Steel Corpora- re the formation of that concern.

Coupled with the enormous dealings in the stock, these facts and surmises gave color to the supposition of a territory contest for control, and the activity and | strength in Southern Railway, as though in seemed a corroboration. The an- 1t was in the interest of the Rock Island was additional incentive to credulity in the pro- gress of plans for extension of community of interest and strengthening of position by exist- ing railroad systems, by control of outlets and extension. The activity and strength of the Gould stocks were supposed to be due to the progress of plans for completing the system's outlet to the Atlantic coast. It is a matter of observation that practically all of the rail- road construction of the present era of indus- trial activity is devoted to extemnsion and strengthening of existing systems rather than to the formation of new systems. It is argued that this tends to insure against rivalry and destructive competition. The postponement of the British budget statement defers the clear- ing up of the foreign money situation. The announcement on good authority that Russia will seek no further loan in Europe this year removes an apprehension that the recent loan placed in Germany, Belgium and Holland was merely preliminary to a large Russian loan to be_floated. The speculation in stocks has been supple- mented by an active buying of some of the low grade specuiative bonds, on which interest payments are contingent at sharp advance in | price.

Associated Banks’ Statement. YORK, April NEW 12.—The statement of the associated banks for the week ending to- day shows: Loans, $900,318,500; decrease, $6,841,600, Deposits, .$057,361,400; decrease, $2,256,900. Circulation, §50,920,000; decrease, $139,900. Legal tenders, $71,916,300; Increass, $1,366,- Specie, $171, 995,800; decrease, $1,258,400. Reserves,- $243,012,100; increase, $108,000, Reserve required, $230,340, - i q E 350; decrease, $1, Surplus, $4,750,000; increase, $1,922,225. The Financler says: The official Statement of the New York associated banks for last week showed a net gain in cash of $108,000, specle having decreased $1,258,400 and legal tenders increased $1,366,400. This net gain very nearly corresponds with that which was estimated on the basis of the traceable move- s Money, | ments of money during the week, this estimate being a gain of $202,400 by the banks. The comparatively slight difference of $184,400 be- tween the estimated and the official gain may be accounted for by the svstem of a s which affected the interior bank movement and the export , gold movements to Europe. The loans showed a decrease of $6,841,600, in- dicating that there must have been consider- eble calling in of loans by the banks, caused by efforts to rectify their position as regards reserves. It is notewerthy that the surplus of the banks as shown by the statement of April 5 was the lowest since November 18, 1899, when the banks indicated a deficiency of $312,025. Doubtless it was owing to this fact that the banks generally sought, through a reduction of loans, to restore reserves, for had there been an expansion in this item the loss of gold, which was foreshadowed early last week and which was reflected in the re- duction of $1,258,4G0 specie shown by the state- ment would most likely have carried the banks very close to the limit of 25 per cent of re- serve to deposits. There was a decrease of $7,256,000 in deposits last week. Though the loss of loans, less the net gain in cash, calls for a change of $6,733,000 in this item {he difference of $523,300 may be regarded as un- important. The required reserve was reduced | to $1,714,225, consequently the net gain of | $108,000 in cash caused an Increase in reserve of $1,022,225. This item now stands at $4,- 751,750, against $7,936,200 at the corresponding period ‘a_year ago. The deposits of public funds in banks of this city, which will be made Guring the current week, will increase the cash reeerves and at the same time they will diminish the drain of money into the sub- treasury, these deposits being made through the diversion from the sub-treasury into the banks of current collections of Internal revenue, London Market. EW YORK, April 12.—The Commerclal Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: “There was more talk than actual business in the market to-day. The Cabinet met on urgent summons. This gave rise to divergent rumors, some reporting a Cabinet crisis, and Sir Michael Hicks-Beach wanted to raise the income tax and Joseph Chamberlain insisted on & fresh war loan, threatening his resignation unless his plan was adopted. The latest ru- mor i that the Bank of England representa- tives have been in conference with the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer. This, if true, sug- gests a new loan, but all are awaiting the of- ficlal confirmation of such a step.

RS s S O hed. CHICAGO, April 12.—Interest in corn easlly outran all else of a speculative nature. The gradual advance of the past week seemed to have been preparing the country for decisive action in this market. The depleted stocks in the Bouthwestern marts had given St. Louls and Kansas City good argument for advancing markets and to-day when the cable list showed strong and the Southwest was still stronger and was bidding eagerly at the relatively cheaper article In this market, prices respond- ed with vigor. Receipts were light and the belief was common among traders that stocks at 8t, Louls and Kansas City had been re- duced to such an extent that those places must supply their actual demands in Chicago. May closed very strong, 1%c higher at 613c. Wheat was Inclined to lag early because of gt in the winter belt. Cables were lnd”r;‘cellpll 1ig] ht."flbfinfisa ‘W opened % D%c to K@Y lower a c. Reports recelved from the Southwest, however, stated that wheat was not improving with the rains, the subsoll belng so dry that such moisture as had been supplied since spring had disappeared avithout affording the necessary relief to veg- etaticn. Acceptances abroad over night were moderately good. An estimate that the winter crop would be only three-fourths of that of a year ago, which was made by a trustworthy avthority, was given credence by many and was & potent factor in the upturn.

Supplies of Green were plentiful, and large quantities of carried-over stock were sold below the quota- tions. The local demand for new Vegetables was brisk and there was a steady Inquiry for ship- ng. Asparagus cleaned up at an advance and Ba wors adotea higher.
