Bradstreets tomor- Lnr will say: Weather conditions are still the apparent iwoscu in tne trade and crop situation. lemperatures have been too cool to allow of tee distribution of Spring and Summer poods retail ana they likewise retard germination ad growth of crops, though permitting good -ogress In seeding In various sections of the atry. In jobbing circles the feeling Is that Spring: trade la past and gone, and efforts now concentrated on Fall business, Te as to which are fairly Rood, though not lual to a year ago. 8ome faint evidence of Improvement are to noted, particularly in the shoe ahd leather bduetry and In wool at "Western primary LarkeU. but against this are to be cited Jirther weakness In Iron, rather more quiet- Jn lumber and talk of further curtail- ent In cotton-mill production.

Special advices to International Mercantile Agency describe general trade revival tbta week at proml- tent Western and Southern centers. The lmulus Is noteworthy, contrasted with con- lUon existing during the previous month, nd has Its basis In more seasonable weather nd Increased orders for Spring stocks. Job ing centers report a material addition to the olume of "restocking business," with a ten ency among many merchants to duplicate rders previously given for Spring goods. Nothing lines are reflecting improvement. hlch is specially evidenced throughout the outhwest. Boots and shoes are more ac- ive. The crop situation has been greatly bene- ted by the warmer weather, which has ad anced wheat In sections whore the backward prlng did great damage. Although wheat lered serious Injury by the setback en- untered during the recent cold snap, a fair- (zed crop can be counted on If normal con ditions prevail. Most grains will be harvest- two or three weeks later than usual. Win- wheat is showing particularly well In some eptlone. Seeding In the Red River Valley district las been retarded by unfavorable weather. that the crop outlook in that section Is oblematlcal. Elsewhere throughout the lorthwest encouraging conditions prevail. Bank Clearings. NEW YORK, May 20.

Monetary Situation Shows Some Im provementRise In Union Pa cific Only Notable Movement. NEW TORK. May 20. The narrowing and. varying fluctuations In the stock market and the small volume of the total transactions each day are accurate reflections of the timid and vaccllatlng temper of the speculative mind. The great body of capitalists are evi dently refraln(cg from either adding to their holdings of stocks or liquidating. The con viction is general that the condition of ab solute deadlock in which the market Is now held cannot last long. The new dlrectloh to be taken Is a matter of profound doubt. The midday rally today was principally due to the heavy debit balance by the Sub-Treasury warrant to J. P. Morgan & Co., the fiscal agents of the Panama Republlo for the -canal payment. The exports. Including to morrow's, are the principal cause of the loss of $13,691,000 by the banks on Sub-Treasury operations for the week. The $2,500,000 ship ment In gold coin as to bo reckoned In addi tion. The movement of cash to the Interior has been heavily in favor of New York again, promising to reduce the loss to the Sub Treasury by fully half. The extent to which today's payment will figure In the averages is expected, therefore, to decide the, complexion of the cash Item by the extent to which It will modify the cash loss otherwise Indicated. The beginning of the hearing In the suit to enjoin the Northern Securities distribution was of some encouraging effect, owing to the steps thus taken toward ending a condition embarrassing to the financial world. As stated by the counsel In the case, It Is de sirable to solve a dispute by which dividends of $40,000,000 are tied up. Union Pacific's rise may have been due to the hope of win ning its contentions in the Northern Securities suit. It was the only noticeable movement In the list. The market closed not far from the best prices. Bonds were dull and Irregular. Total sales. $1,310,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Salts. High. Low.
