YORK, April 25.—The fright of spec- rs in stocks showed evidence of subsidence y, and, as was to be expected after the viclence of the recent downward plunge, there ecovery in the prices. It was to be aiso that the stocks which had led eclive shouid be especially affected by the demand from uncgvered shorts, which con stituted the principal 4434c. bords, Union Pacific, St. Paul and New York Cen. tral wepe the principal examples in the rafl- road list. In the industrial list an aggressive tone was taken on the recovery in some of the stocks which have offered comparatively good resistance to the decline, notably in the metal group. There was a very distinct falling off in intcrest in the market, however, and traces of nervousness and feverishness were still very porceptibie. This was especially the case early in the day befcre the relaxation of the sell- ing pressure from outside sources was clearly perceived. London resumed operations after & four-dsy interval of idleness and took our securities with such freedom as to make a material ald in supporting the market. A r of international stocks went between points higher during the first hour. he practical effect of this buying stocks, the tone of the London mar- siputed any remaining fears of a criti- cal state of European policles. The weight of the selling brought out by the opening bulge i prices had a decidedly chilling effect timent and 2 haltng movement fol- lowed. An auxious eye was kept on develop- ments growing out of the Milwaukee banking ndal and there were some fears that still iurther losses would be Invulved. More im- portance was attached to the possible efect episode in shaking the existing state dence in the outstanding credits, which ortaiice to the present prosperous oon- dition of the country. The day’s events served 10 qulet excitement to some extent regarding the Mflwaukee incident. The quieter tone of the wheat market was also an effectiv€ influ- ence in turning the stock market. With the downward tendency arrested and the upward rn established, less was heard of vester- rumors of hostilities in the railroad world, which pointed to a dsgree: of bitterness that had prompted a contest for control of Union Pacific itself. A notable feature of the market on the recovery was the lessened volume of activity, the total transactions for dey falling considerably b:low thase of e speculation during -the after- to anticipate the action of the directors of the United States Steel Gorporation which was ta ussemble lster in ve out a statement of earnin Expectations that this would fully even _exceeded the ron and steel Assues, in spite of the market for crude cop- e In prices did not become time and was interrupted by the but stériing exchange was . of the buying of stocks here for account sirong closing.

NEW YORK, April 25.—Special cable and telegraphic communications received by streets show the following changes in th availablo supply as compared with last ac- | counts: Wheat, United States and Canada, east of the Rockies, decreased 1,614,000 bushels; afloat for and in Burope, decreased 2,800,000 bushels. Total supply decreased 4,414,000 bushels. Corn, United States and Canada, east Rockies, decreased 1,556,000 bushels. The leading decreases reported this week are 65,000 bushels in Manitoba, 114,000 bushels in Louisville, en estimate of 100,000 bushels at Northwestern interior elevators; 73,000 bush- els at Goderich, Ont.; 63,000 bushels at Mil- waukee private elevators, and 50,000 bushels at_the Minneapolis private elevators. Stocks held in the Chicago private elevators increased 93,000 busbels. CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE. of Future Grain and Provisions. CHICAGO, April 25.—An altogether differ- ent feeling from that recently in evidence existed In the wheat pit to-day. The opinion was_generally expressed that the Gates line of May wheat had besn eatirely liquidated. With toe deal in May finally settled, attention was turned to July -delivers. Rumors of a contemplated deal in that option under the guidance of influential bulls gave considerabie confidence to the shorts, who covered freely. Notwithstanding favorabie weather for the de- velopment of the winter wheat crop, sentiment during the greater part of the day was quite bullish. A¢ the l-:pe;;n.mlh e m;lr‘l:fl July was a shade to % @%c higher at @85 kc. May was W@%c higher at 93%c to 93ie. There was little nervousness after the opening and trade in the May option at 95e, with other trades at the same mom:nt at 93je to 94c. From these figures there was a gradual de- cline under scattered offerings by Northwestern houses and a little eleventh-hour liquidation by smail traders. One of the big longs -also, was credited with enormous sales. The sell- ing pressure was sufficient to force the price of May down to §2c before the eénd of the first hour. Meantime the price of July bad. eased off to S4l4c under seiling by the pit traders. Sentiment then changed and for the remalnder of tne session a firm tone pre- vailed. The principal cause for the buying was a big decrease in the world's visible sup- ply as against an Increass of §78,000 bushels for the corresponding week last year. An- other hullish factor was a report from Balti-( more that the first contract shipment of new wheat to Europe had made there to-day. In the theory that future deliverics had been gen- erally oversold during the smash in May prices the dewand for the more distant options was active during the last half of the session. The market respondsd to the improved demand, July advancing to 85%c. The close was strong with July seiling at the highest price. May ciosed st 93¢. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 76,200 bushels. Prima recel th wers 389,900 bushels, compared WX:{ B&) bushels a vear ago.
