BRIGHTER ON WHOLE
industrial Outlook Improves,
Adverse Factors Appear,
RAILWAY EARNINGS FALL OFF
Manufacturing Lines Report Slight
Improvement at 'Woolen Mills
and Shoe Factories-Cereal
Crops Are Much Better.
NEW YORK. May 27. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
Retail trade Is stimulated by seasonable
weather, and the Industrial outlook Is brighter
os the whole, although adverse factors have
appeared. The big dry goods auction sale
opened with an unexpectedly large attendance,
and good prices -were secured. It Is partic
ularly gratifying to note that retailers, rather
than Jobbers, have made most of the pur
chases, thus providing prompt distribution
Into consuming channels -throughout the coun
try. Manufacturing lines report a slight Improve
ment at "voolea mills and shoe factories, and
while there is more idle cotton machinery. It
is worthy of note that the last Fall River
statement showed very little reduction In
dividends.
Railroad earnings so far reported for May
fall 3.3 per cent short of the same time last
year, but foreign commerce at this port for
the lost week shows gains of $1,037,000 in ex
ports, and $649,545 in Imports.
It is Increasingly difficult to find encourag
ing conditions pertaining to the Iron and steely
Industry.
Although packer hides are active and firm,
tanners discriminate In favor of late saltings,
which is causing some accumulations of the
less desirable qualities. Imported hides are
steady at the recent decline, arrivals being
promptly absorbed.
Failures this week number 226 in the Unit
ed States, against 206 last year, and 17 In
Canada, compared with 7 a year ago.
CEREAL CROPS IMPROVE.
But Cotton in the South Is Affected by
Drouth.
NEW YORK, May 27. Bradstreet's tomorrow
will say:
The situation Is rather more irregular. Dis
tributive trade, stimulated by better weather
In some sections, has Improved, but is still
behind a year ago. Cereal crops, particularly
Winter wheat, show improvement, but cotton
reflects drouth. The Industrial condition Is
hardly oo satisfactory, a slowing down being
noted In many leading Industries; the number
of Idle persons la growing, and unskilled labor
shows in some Bcetlons a woeful lack of fore
sight and knowledge of real conditions. Cur
rent railway earnings continue to ebow de
clines from a year ago. The copper market
has moved lower this week, as has also lead.
Wool Is dull and In hand-to-mouth demand
at Boston. New York and Philadelphia, but Is
celling actively at prices equal to or above
a year ago at the West, with one-half of the
Bpring woo' clip reported sold.
Business failures in the United States for the
week ended May 20 number 184, against 215
last week. 1S1 In the corresponding year In
1903. In Canada failures for the week num
ber 14. against 11 last week and 23 in this
week a year ago.
Wheat. Including flour, exports for the week
ending May 20 aggregate 1,132,127 bushels,
against 1,225.703 last week, 4.677.07S this week
last year. From July 1, 1D03, to date, they
aggregate 123,002.511 bushels, against 204.
163.812 last season. Corn exports for the
week aggregate 233.095 bushels, against 118,
.838 last week. 1,179.739 a year ago.

NEW YORK, May 27. The following table,
compiled by Bradstreet, shows the bank clear
ings at the principal cities for the week ended
May 26, with the percentage of Increase and

New York Market Falls Back Into
Lethargic Condition-InsignlfN .
cant Change In Prices.
NEW YORK. May 27. The volume of sell
ing In today's stock market was exceedingly
Jlsht, but was sufficient to Incline the balance
toward lower prices. The market did not
quite reach the record for dullness touched
earlier In the year, on March 10, when the ag
gregate shares eold amounted to only 74,400.
but today's total of 119.000 shares left little
to choose between them. The Imminence of
a three-days' holiday, added to the general
discouragement of speculation, was the cause
of the aggravated apathy of the market. The
promise of a growth In cash resources of the
banks to the extent of nearly $10,000,000 stim
ulated no interest In stocks. Of this amount
the Sub-Treasury has contributed $1,645,000 as
the residue of the $9,000,000 paid to the banks
last week for the account of the Panama Re
public, and since depicted by the recall of
Government deposits. The flood of currency
from interior, estimated to have amounted to
upward of $6,000,000 In favor of New York,
is given an almost sinister, import on account
of the inference of stagnant demand for
n.oney In business. The amount of gold bars
available for export torn arrow proved to' be
only $550,000, but sterling exchange continued
strong. Reading's report of $332,500 Increase
In net earnings for April yielded the stock a
gain of . Other reports of railroad earnings
were unfavorable, but were of scarcely more
effect. No benefit was felt by the market
from the favorable reports of the New Haven
strike. Late covering by the day's shorts
left trivial net changes. Total sales of bonds,
par value, $1,095,000.
The stock market has fallen back Into a
lethargic condition this week. Dealings have
fallen to nominal proportions, and prices have
scarcely s'tlrred. Last Saturday's rise on the
loan contraction by the banks did not last
out the day Monday, and Tuesday the level
of prices fell back to about the level of the
preceding Friday. The rest of the week was
stagnant and apathetic
The inertia of the market at the low prices
now prealllns Is evidence that the process of
contraction now going on In business and in
dustry in the country Is in accordance with
expectation, and that measures had been taken
accordingly In the financial world. The ten
dency toward congestion Is shown In many
ways. Bank clearings are declining the coun
try over. Currency continues to flow in large
volume to the reserve centers. Export of more
than $60,000,000 of gold since the 1st of April
has passed without a ripple In the money
market. The current redemption of bank
notes at the Treasury is running at the rate
of nearly $1,000,000 a day for May. Money
has become almost a drug la the market. The
Investment demand for home securities has
continued almost Imperceptible The large
subscriptions to the Japanese, Russian and
Cuban loans, as well as to the New York City
bond issue, aro proof of the large accumula
tions of capital awaiting employment. The
decline in railroad earnings is a definitely
established tendency, and Its general recogni
tion Is confirmed by the steps announced by
railroad managers In all sections of the coun
try for retrenchment of expenditures and re
duction of working forces.
The number of small banking establishments
throughout the country which are suspending
at short Intervals Is a feature of the situation
which Is not liked, Insignificant as are these
establishments or Individuals. The drawing
out of the gold export movement, after an
opinion had gained force that it had reached
its limit, has had somo Influence on the con
servative spirit of the stock market. In spite
of the undevlating ease of the money market.
Bonds have fluctuated narrowly and uncer
tainly In the same way as stocks. United
States 3s registered have declined . and the
4s per. cent on call during the week.

WHEAT MARKET DULL.
Inactivity Depresses Prices at Chicago
Corn Market Bearish.
CHICAGO. May 27. Under the influence of
seasonable weather and generally encouraging
conditions for growing crops everywhere, the
wheat market opened easier, the July delivery
being down c'at 8856c Extreme dull
ness characterized trading, and had a ten
dency to depress prices.. On the other hand,
cables were firm and afforded some encourage
ment to the bulls. The fact that the major
ity of exchanges throughout the country would
be closed tomorrow and Monday greatly re
stricted the volume of business. The absence
of contract wheat here as the basis of spec
ulative transactions caused the abandonment
of trading in July as far oa possible, except
in the way of evening up outstanding con
tracts, the September delivery attracting in
creased attention. "A St. Louis trade journal
registered a belief in the continued Improve
ment in crop conditions, but traders appeared
indifferent. Cash wheat at Minneapolis was
weak, and a report from there stated that all
flour mills would shout down for a few days.
During the last half hour the May delivery
became active, the price advancing sharply
on covering by shorts. After selling off to
65c, July rallied to 8&c closing at the. top.
May ranged between 96c and 93c and
closed at the high point.
Sentiment in the corn market was quite
bearish, due to the liberal receipts and to pros
pects of a still heavier movement. July opened
c to o lower, at 47c to 48c sold down to
47c, and closed at 47c
Oats were quiet, but moved nervously over
a narrow range. After opening unchanged to
!e lower at S8c to 37c, July ranged be
tween 3838c closing t 3Se38c.
Provisions were strong early In sympatny
with higher prices at the yards, but the mar
ket became, easier on proflt-taklng, all of the
gain being lost. July pork closed 2c low
er; July lard unchanged, and ribs off 2c.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

Grain operators continue to scale down their
estimates of the coming yield of wheat and
barley, based upon reports of" deterioration
