Salt Lake City, say: "it h;i been a sreek of uncertainty and confuting con-futing sentlnn.nl In tho New York stock market. mar-ket. Al the opening, and In the absence of any substantial support and a prevalent bearish bear-ish feeling, tho market whs wn moving downward In a manner to encourage tho oell-lng oell-lng elerneut. WbllS tho only feeling at all ra- ruble to the advocalea of high prices that presented Itself wa that the volume of business busi-ness decreased and tho drives against prlcva resulted I" a stagnant market condition, rather than bringing about Increased liquidation. The result of the bear campaign In tho success of th- decline haa been most substantial, but. considering the deterioration In values. It bus been romai kably fre from the demoralization which usually attends BUCh d-prcvlallon. Thla Is probably OOCOUnted for by the comparatively comparative-ly small Interest that th public had In the market. Wo have It on excellent authority that tho big commission houses are carrying u smaller line at the moment than at any time for soieral months. Weakly maiKlned stocks have he-n eliminated, and the technical poeltlon of the market has itreally Improved This Is proven by the eass with which clocks were advanced toward tho close of thn week "U&laa Faclflc Is still, to a large degree, the Index of market sentiment and movement, and hence It fluctuation must be primarily considered con-sidered In any review of the week's market. The stock opened al 117s; and Its fluctuations were between 117 and 124. cloalng at 122. Tho Northwestern railway situation still dominates, dom-inates, but the prices of the stock of the roads Involved would acem to Indicate that some progress had been made toward a settlement settle-ment of Ihle annoying question, which has caused ao much apprehension among operators. V. B I snnot believe that any genuine strength will bo shown In tho market until a definite settlement Is reached. "Reporte of managers of railways speak en-eAUriiKlnr.-lY of the general business situation from a trnfflo point of view, and mnrcantlle ruporte are lo lino with thla expression. "The bank t-tatemcnt today wa about as expected, ex-pected, shewing a loss of $:.000.000 In surplus reserve and un increase In loans and deposits. Money continues easy and will probably remain re-main ao. Wo think, for the time being, the market should bo bought on breaks and sold on bulge, but would not recommend loo heavy commitments In either dlroctlon."

May 1J The Flnoncler aays this week: The most notable featuro Of the. official Statement Of the New Yoik ossv-rolated hanks last week was an Increase Instead of the looked-fOr contraction In loans; also a moderate mod-erate lose of cash, an Increaae In deposits, and consequently In tho reserve requirements, and a decrease In the surplus reserve very nearly corresponding In amount with the pre-ilous pre-ilous week's gain In this Item. The Increase In loans was ehlefly dus to syndicate operations, two hanks alon showing show-ing $8.40".O"0 of this expansion The requirements require-ments of speculation on tho stock exchange were much t o small, beoauso of general market mar-ket depression, to account for any augmentation augmen-tation In borrowing. The loss In cash resulted almost wholly from sub-treasury operations Ineldent to the surrender of public funds In anticipation of tho maturity on Mondav of this week of the first Installment, amounting amount-ing to 114,360,000, of the call Irsued on April f. for $20 000,000 of Government deposits Hiul It not be.-n for these treasury operations, tho banks would hao shown a gain In cash as a result of the Interbank movement, and u-s a result of the receipts of new gold represented repre-sented bv assnv office checks Th Increase. In deposits c-s less by $H16.S0 than ihe sum of the Increase In loans le-s the ! ss of cash, therefore, the settlement did not arove. 1 .imputed upon the basis of deposits leu those of 116,714,200 public funds, the surplus Is $20.616. 125. It may be noted 08 a result of this week s surrenders of public funds that the holdings of such deposits by Iho New- Tork banks will be reduced to about $10,000,000. I-t weeks reduction compared with the previous week was $710 900. ond. compared com-pared with the amount held April ft, $1,233.-100 $1,233.-100 It Is expected that the surrenders which will be mnde t.idnv will cause snmo derangement derange-ment to bank conditions this week, but with money so ehenp and surplus reserves fairly large for the. season, no disturbance of loan rates ne.-d be feared LIVE STOCK.
