EASTERN MARKETS. of the struggle among the granger trunk lines to secure for themselves compensatory, ad- vantages to offset the Burlington deal. Offl- ciala «f the St. Paul Railroad were quoted anonymously this morning:. as breathing forth threatenings of buildimr a new line to the Pacific unless they were accorded a share in the advantages of the supposed ' Union Pacific NEW TORK, May. 2.—The " Atchison stocks took the leadership of the market away from Union Paclflc to-day, both in point of strength and activity. During most of the day the volume ' of transactions in the two common stocks ran a close race, but the dealings In Atchison common and preferred easily out- ctripped those in the two Union Pacific sticks. A' preponderance of the total transactions In the whole market centered in these stocks. There have been very confident predictions that the first dividend on Atchison for a half-year would be 2 per cent and -it is likely that a large 6hort Interest was accumulated in the etock by those who. had been on the inside. As a matter of fact the offerings were very moderate. The character of to-day's buying, however, could by no means be safely attrib- uted either to a demand ' from , shorts or > to purely speculative manipulation. •. The move- ment was supposed to be due to a new phase New York Stock Market. Concordia dub Mortgage. An application was made by the Concor- dla Club yesterday for leave to renew a mortgage of $80,000 on the club's property at Van Ness avenue and Post street.

May 2.— In corn the tight grip of the leading bull on the May delivery was more than ever apparent. Prices fluctuated violently within a range of 5c, but actual transactions in the pit were very small. Phillips, who has th£ market cornered, refused to sell. \ Asld* from the manipulation, small receipts of con- tract trade corn and a report that Argen- tina's exportable surplus had been reduced 50 per cent were strengthening - factors. The manipulation was, of course, most apparent In May. although the July delivery profited some- what by it and enjoyed a more general trade May ouened *4e . to l%c • higher at 50c to 51c bid and was bid up In %c and %c Jumps to 65c. This brought only very small offerings from scattered scalping longs.: It was re- ported that some large short lines had been settled at ,the | market price with Phillips 1in a private conference,, but no authority for the assertions could : be found. .-.• From - 55c May dropped back to 53c, not from' any Increase In offerings, but' because the bidding stopped Later' 54c was bid" and at the close shorts were offering 53%c, 4 C more than yesterday's close.

It must be remembered tUa.t a very large part of the purchases of Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, Southern Pa- cific. Baltimore and Ohio. Pennsylvania Coal, Lehigh Valley, Norfolk and Western, Chesa- peake and Ohio, Lon£ Island and some time ego Lake Shore, has been provided for by be- ing unloaded upon leading trunk line corpora- tions. This puts the former owners In a strong moneyed position to be buyers of other things for investment to take the place of the un- loaded properties and makes stronger holders of our .securities than in any previous bull campaign, besides making the situation a much safer one than would. appear on the surface." "Our ability of late Lo subscribe for foreign securities, which has been done to a .consid- erable extent within the last two years, makes these properties international, as has always been the case -with American securities which had a London and Continental market. The New York circular of Henry Clews says: "There Is one good feature connected with the purchase of English consols on this side — it will place us much In the same position as England has been in in connection with this country almost continuously up to -within the last few years. Whenever money became ecarce and rates high at the foreign money centers they would Jeluge our market with the return of American securities so as to draw gold from us. This country is now in a sim- ilar position. Whenever -we get into a tight place for money, If we ever do again, we will have European government securities to send back to them in place of shipping gold. The Situation in Wall Street.

This collaborates the- current sup- position that the great granger trunk lines feel themselves at a tactical disadvantage if they have not an assured Pacific Coast outlet as well as an Eastern trunk line connection and that all of them will sooner or later take measures to secure these advantages. The movement of prices to-day was cited as giving evidence that the buying of Atchison was for the benefit of St. Paul and probably also of Rock Island. There was a - disposition to at- tribute the late strength of .Baltimore and Ohio to plans for making that 'road the east- ern outlet and the late spurt in Norfolk and Western and Chesapeake and Ohio wereisup- posed to indicate alternative possibilities.'*- The declaration of the first dividend on Norfolk and Western of. 1 per cent was. however, the more plausible explanation of the strength of the last named Etock. The feverish . and er- ratic fluctuations in Union Paciflo were amply explained by the new uncertainties surround- ing the present ownership of Its control. There were various rumors both to the effect that the Vanderbllt Interests had perfected their control and that the Harriman Interest had secured the maintenance of their control. Every movement in the stock and every rumor regarding the control was looked upon with suspicion by the uneasy speculators as a de- vice to further the contest and ¦ underlying all was their dread that when once the actual control is decided the high price -will not be maintained. The extreme range of the stock was 6 points and the net loss 1%. Atchison advanced an extreme 11%- and closed within a fraction of the best. St. Paul Is 2% higher on the day. Chesapeake and Ohio 3% and Nor- folk and Western 1%. The stocks included in the Burlington deal, the Erie stocks not ex- cluded. " were all notably heavy. The heavy profit-taking and weakness of the United States Steel . stocks had a large sentimental effect on the whole market. New York Cen- tral was quite severely handled and loses 3% on the day. Except for the few special points of strength the market was on the whole re- actionary. The money rate was distinctly firmer to-day, ruling at 6 per cent early in the day and It was said that a number of the banks were calling- loans. The sub-treasury figures, -which include the payment for the gold exports, show a loss by the money mar- ket thus far of $5,758,000. The payments of the Government Interest and of the blocks of Go\-ernment bonds redeemed yesterday and to- day do not figure yet lu the- statement, but it Is evident that there must ¦ have been . a very heavy movement of cash from the interior during the week to overcome these losses. The sterling exchange market had a firm under- tone and there Is still a possibility of gold engagements to-morrow for Saturday's steamer. The closing of the market was easy and al- most weak except for the final spurt InAtchi- son. Union Pacific convertible bonds continued very active and the bond market otherwise was irregular.

There was a demand. for sil- ver for the India market. The feature of the day's business, however, was the gigantic options in Americans, this being regarded by some . people here as the only safe method of dealing in them now. united States Steel was active around 53% for the common and 103% for the preferred. There was a big- rush for Grand Trunks on vague rumors of working agreements being arranged between them, Northern Pacific and the Ley- land line. In the American department business- was active, but confused and irregular. , London rushed In to take profits during the first hours of. the morning, but there soon came a furious demand foT" Atchison, -which went higher and rallied the 'whole list. There was a pause dur- ing which the market fluctuated feverishly.' Then the boom was continued when it waa learned that Pennsylvania was buying large lines. Union Pacific hung rather heavy al- though 150 was talked for it on the reported guarantee of 6 per cent on the stock by those who are acquiring- control. A large business was done in the Stock' Ex- change-here to-day. Buying orders had ac- cumulated over the holiday, the execution of which • grave the market the appearance of great activity, but the tone also waa better, more buoyant than it has been for a long time.

NEW TORK, May. 2.—The"

Atchison stockstook the leadership of the market away fromUnion Paclflc to-day, both in point of strengthand activity. During most of the day thevolume

'of transactions in the two common

stocks ran a close race, but the dealings InAtchison common and preferred easily out-ctripped those in the two Union Pacific sticks.A'preponderance of the total transactions Inthe whole market centered in these stocks.

There have been very confident predictions thatthe first dividend on Atchison for a half-yearwould be 2 per cent and -it is likely that alarge 6hort Interest was accumulated in theetock by those who. had been on the inside.As a matter of fact the offerings were verymoderate. The character of to-day's buying,however, could by no means be safely attrib-uted either to a demand

—*CHICAGO. May 2.—In corn the tight grip of

the leading bull on the May delivery was morethan ever apparent. Prices fluctuated violentlywithin a range of 5c, but actual transactionsin the pit were very small. Phillips, who hasth£ market cornered, refused to sell. \ Asld*from the manipulation, small receipts of con-tract trade corn and a report that Argen-tina's exportable surplus had been reduced 50per cent were strengthening

-factors. Themanipulation was, of course, most apparent InMay. although the July delivery profited some-

what by it and enjoyed a more general tradeMay ouened *4e . to l%c • higher at 50c to 51cbid and was bid up In %c and %c Jumps to65c.

Weather Report.

"Inconnection with the present high pricesof stocks and Immense dealings therein, whichhave caused a great many people to anticipate« disastrous reaction. It must be rememberedtUa.t a very large part of the purchases ofChicago, Burlingtonand Quincy, Southern Pa-cific. Baltimore and Ohio. Pennsylvania Coal,Lehigh Valley, Norfolk and Western, Chesa-peake and Ohio, Lon£ Island and some timeego Lake Shore, has been provided for by be-ing unloaded upon leading trunk line corpora-tions. This puts the former owners In a strongmoneyed position to be buyers of other thingsfor investment to take the place of the un-loaded properties and makes stronger holdersof our .securities than in any previous bullcampaign, besides making the situation a muchsafer one than would. appear on the surface."

"Our ability of late Lo subscribe for foreignsecurities, which has been done to a .consid-erable extent within the last two years, makesthese properties international, as has alwaysbeen the case -with American securities whichhad a London and Continental market.

The New York circular of Henry Clews says:"There Is one good feature connected with thepurchase of English consols on this side

—it

will place us much In the same position asEngland has been in in connection with thiscountry almost continuously up to -within thelast few years. Whenever money becameecarce and rates high at the foreign moneycenters they would Jeluge our market withthe return of American securities so as to drawgold from us. This country is now in a sim-ilar position. Whenever -we get into a tightplace for money, If we ever do again, wewill have European government securities tosend back to them in place of shipping gold.

The Situation in Wall Street.

"Trade in currants, -while still email, showscome slight Improvement, possibly due to thereceipt by the trade of the news of the recentadvance in Greece. Apples show some activity.Pales of rood dry prime stock are reported at4%c. JCuts are dull."

"Prunes are still offering from the coast onthe 2c basis, but whether these are some ofthe 30,000.000 pounds reported to have been

bought by the syndicate of'packers could notbe learned. Five cars were offered yesterdayfrom California, but there were no 30-40s or<0-50s and no straight cars of 90-100s In theassortment. It could not be discovered thatany business was done on this basis. Raisinscontinue quiet. Sales of a small lot of Cali-fornia 3-crown loose Muscatels were reportedat 5%c to jobbers. Some business was donein the 3-crown of good quality early in theweek as lew aa 4%c.

Mail advices from Xew York say: "Becauseof the scarcity of pupplies the spot marketfor prunes is firm at the advance of aboutUo per pound, and the demand is only slightlyless active than at the former prices. Fortiesto 50s and E0-60s -were fceld more firmly thanon Thursday, 40-50s being comparatively bardto find even at 6%c.

absorption. This collaborates the- current sup-position that the great granger trunk linesfeel themselves at a tactical disadvantage ifthey have not an assured Pacific Coast outletas well as an Eastern trunk line connectionand that all of them will sooner or later takemeasures to secure these advantages. Themovement of prices to-day was cited as givingevidence that the buying of Atchison was forthe benefit of St. Paul and probably also ofRock Island. There was a

-disposition to at-

tribute the late strength of .Baltimore andOhio to plans for making that 'road the east-ern outlet and the late spurt in Norfolk andWestern and Chesapeake and Ohio wereisup-posed to indicate alternative possibilities.'*- Thedeclaration of the first dividend on Norfolkand Western of.1 per cent was. however, themore plausible explanation of the strength ofthe last named Etock. The feverish .and er-ratic fluctuations in Union Paciflo were amplyexplained by the new uncertainties surround-ing the present ownership of Its control. Therewere various rumors both to the effect thatthe Vanderbllt Interests had perfected theircontrol and that the Harriman Interest hadsecured the maintenance of their control.Every movement in the stock and every rumorregarding the control was looked upon withsuspicion by the uneasy speculators as a de-vice to further the contest and ¦ underlying allwas their dread that when once the actualcontrol is decided the high price -will not bemaintained. The extreme range of the stockwas 6 points and the net loss 1%. Atchisonadvanced an extreme 11%- and closed within afraction of the best. St. Paul Is 2% higheron the day. Chesapeake and Ohio 3% and Nor-folk and Western 1%. The stocks included inthe Burlington deal, the Erie stocks not ex-cluded.

"were all notably heavy. The heavy

profit-taking and weakness of the UnitedStates Steel . stocks had a large sentimentaleffect on the whole market. New York Cen-tral was quite severely handled and loses 3%on the day. Except for the few special pointsof strength the market was on the whole re-actionary. The money rate was distinctlyfirmer to-day, ruling at 6 per cent early inthe day and It was said that a number of thebanks were calling- loans. The sub-treasuryfigures, -which include the payment for thegold exports, show a loss by the money mar-ket thus far of $5,758,000. The payments ofthe Government Interest and of the blocks ofGo\-ernment bonds redeemed yesterday and to-day do not figure yet lu the- statement, but itIs evident that there must ¦ have been.a veryheavy movement of cash from the interiorduring the week to overcome these losses. Thesterling exchange market had a firm under-tone and there Is still a possibility of goldengagements to-morrow for Saturday's steamer.The closing of the market was easy and al-most weak except for the final spurt InAtchi-son.

CLOSING.

The bank has bought £203,000 of gold inAmerican bars. There was a demand. for sil-ver for the India market.

The feature of the day's business, however,was the gigantic options in Americans, thisbeing regarded by some . people here as theonly safe method of dealing in them now.united States Steel was active around 53% forthe common and 103% for the preferred. Therewas a big- rush for Grand Trunks on vaguerumors of working agreements being arrangedbetween them, Northern Pacific and the Ley-land line.

In the American department business- wasactive, but confused and irregular. , Londonrushed In to take profits during the first hoursof. the morning, but there soon came a furiousdemand foT"Atchison, -which went higher andrallied the 'whole list. There was a pause dur-ing which the market fluctuated feverishly.'Then the boom was continued when it waalearned that Pennsylvania was buying largelines. Union Pacific hung rather heavy al-though 150 was talked for it on the reportedguarantee of 6 per cent on the stock by thosewho are acquiring- control.

A large business was done in the Stock' Ex-change-here to-day. Buying orders had ac-cumulated over the holiday, the execution ofwhich

•grave the market the appearance of

great activity, but the tone also waa better,more buoyant than ithas been for a long time.
