NEW YORK, May 9.—The volume of deal- ings to-Gay fell considerably below half a mil- lion shares for the first time in many weeks. Whether there was any other reason for this duliness tran the decision on the part of the speculators lately leading the market to let it fallow for a time was not evident. Per- the long Grawn out controversy over the | an e labor settlement may have been effect! in discouraging speculative activity. If that was the factor which induced the cur- tallment of demand and the segging of prices in the general list it did not appear among the coalers themselves. That group was af- ected by the marked strength of Delaware d Hudso: The Wall-street public is puz- zled 1> know the grounds of the very positive assurance which has been manifesy among the controlling ivterests in the anthracite trade that ere would be no strike. Their deter- mination has evidentiy not varied to offer no concessions, while on the other hand the mine workers, in effect, are under contingent orders to Geciure a st unless the concessions are granted. The outcome was still waited when the stock market closed to-day. ~There Was some show of strength in the early dealings and an eppearance of renewed activity on the part of the recently prominent market leaders. Amalgamated Copper was conspicuously ac- hi tive and strong, advancing at one time 1%. Reports were current that sales of copper had been effected at 12%c by a leading competitor in sufficient amount to take it out of the mar- ket for some time to come.

The weakness of Chicago and Northwestern Wwas also associated with the confiicting reports of the admission to the directory of representatives of the Moore in- tercets, who sre reported to have acquired Jarge holdings of stock lately.

NEW YORK, May 9.—The Commercial Ad- vertiser's London financial cablegram says: Stocks to-day were brisker and more cheer- ful. Investment issues were in good demand on the results of the Indian loan. For the £1,500,000 issue offered at a minimum at 09 the applications amounted to £10,000,000. The premium is now 2%. Consols sold at 94%. American _shares were firm early, notably Union Pacific_and_Southern Pacific, and they rose briskly, but New York falled to respond on the rumor that the coal operators had de- clined to arbitrate their differences with the miners. The close was heavy and unsettled, but Canadian Pacific was buoyant at 132% on influential -buying. There is a rumor that the road has acquired Wisconsin Central, giving it a Chicago outlet. Rio Tintos were % up and copper sold at £43 158 the ton. Call rates for money strengthened on the Indian loan demands. New York Money Market.

The situa- tion in manufacturing generally may he fummed up in one word, “activit mportant exception to ' this beling the woolen industry, which Is intertered: with by strikes. The unsettled anthracite coal situ- atlon also overhangs the Hastern trade situg. tion. Iron and steel trades are still pushed to the utmost tension to keep up with eup. rent demand.

G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review to-morrow will say: At a time when consumptive demand sur- passes all previous records in the nation’ his- tory, it is unfortunate that production should be curtailed. Yet that is the present situation. First, the labor controversies and a tornado stopped work at many points, greatly reducing the output and many more wage disputes must be settled before the end of the month or fur- nace fires will be banked and wheels cease to revolve. Losses by the elements have been severe, the largest tin plate plant in the world being rendered idle probably for a month, while many foundries and shops were de- stroyed. Prices of commodities on May 1, as shown by Dun's index number, rose to the highest point in recent vears, gaining 6.3 per cent over the corresponding date last year, but this week there has been a material decline in some products, notably grain. Distribution through retall channels continues very heavy. Railway_earnings are steadily gaining, full returns for April exceeding last year's by 10.6 per cent and 1800 by 35 per cent. Procrastinating consumers who predicted a collapse in the iron and steel market similar to the break that occurred two years ago have greatly augmented the pressure by tardily at- tempting to supply their requirements. Dispatches to this paper promise a large wool clip, though the late spring has delayed shear- ing. There has been less selling of wool on the sheeps’ back. . More encouraging weather reports have made the outlook brighter for a normal wheat yleld. Exports from all ports in the United States Quring the week amounted to 3,377,379 bush- els, flour included, compared with' 5,579,087 bushels in the preceding week. Failures for the week number 218 in the United States, against 187 last year, and 24 in Canada, against 26 last year. % — New York Grain and Produce. 5 NEW YORK, May 9.—FLOUR—Receipts, 14,747 barrels; exports, 7939 barrels; steady but dull. ‘WHEAT—Receipts, 85,208 bushels; exports, 72,134 bushels; spot, steady; No. 2 red, 80%c elevator; No. 2 red, 80%c f. o. b. afloat; No. 1 Northern Duluth, 83lc f. o. b. afloat; No. 1 hard Manitoba, 87%c f. o, b. afloat.

The White Cher- | ries from Vacaville were poor and hard to sell but the black were in better condition, althoug™ some were cracked by the recent rain and hac to_be sold at the bottom quotation. Receipts of Navel Oranges are steadily de- ceasing and the market is almost bare of fancy fruit. Offerings are chiefly of choice and standard varieties, which are dull.
