Operators Give More Attention to Crop
and Copper Reports Than -to
Stocks.
NEW TORK. May 8. Th. monthly .tat..
merit of tha copper producers and tha Gov
ernment crop report received more atten
tion from th. Onanclal community today
than did the atock market, where trading
was so llfelen aa to be almost without sig
nificance. Kxpectatlona of a good crop
report were goneral and acted aa a ataylng
Influence. Price, declined moderately and
th. clos. showed many small net losses
among the active Issues.
Th. copper producers' st-atement waa not
favorable aa bad been expected, but publi
cation of the report had little effect on
stocks. Algamated Copper yielding only
fraction. In the steel trade, also. Indica
tions of Immediate Improvement are few.
Th. real market leaders, with few excep
tions, were rather heavy, although this
sevmed to b. du. mora to neglect than to
pressure. Atchison waa atrong toward th.
close on th. report from Parla of th. list
ing of lOO.ooO sbarea on the Bourse.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value,
f 3.626.000. United States bonds were un
