GITTELMAN, (Successor to Gittelman Harbach.) 32 NORTH FIFTH STREET on on 1906 THE MARKETS DAY OF WAVERING PRICES- -LATEST STOCK, FLOUR, FEED, GRAIN AND PRODUCE QUOTATIONS. Philadelphia, May was big shrinkage in stock market trading, both here end in Wall Street today, the volume falling to the lowest point in two months, and with the dwindling came an setback in prices, with pressure most noticeable in Pennsylvania Railroad stock. The way it yielded induced selling of other giltedged shares, but the greater part of it came from bear operators, and lasted only for an hour; but traders, finding little opposition in depressing prices, made frequent attacks during the balance of the day. The most vulnerable issues were St. Paul and the metal stocks.

Reading's strength checked the downward course, and after 1 o'clock the early tendency was reversed. There was a feeling that something unfavorable was overhanging the market, and this, with expectations of caused a poor bank statement tomorrow, prices to sag on light offerings. No extensive selling came any time. As a market factor, the revelations in the Pennsylvania investigation before the Interstate Commerce Commission were given exaggerated importance. The fact that undue favors had been extended by subordinate officials to favored coal mining companies furnishing cars certainly can in nowise affect intrinsic values of earning power, but the market in nervous state was influenced by theories that at any other time would have been disregarded.

This phase of the question relation to the market can be set down as entirely speculative. The market was more interested in the monetary situation than anything else, but the forecasts of the weekly bank returns indicate that the New York banks, in the face of an apparent $15,000,000 loss to the Sub-Treasury, will lose only $895,000 net. The institutions actually lost only $3,912,400, but they gained $3,016,200 from the interior. This information imparted a tonic effect upon stocks in the final session, but the market, while well above the lowest, was ragged at the close. a In depression the face in of a Pennsylvania formidable stock handicap- to a figure that at one period of day was on a level with Reading common--the Philadelphia market displayed a resistance that occasioned much favorable comment.

The selling of Pennsylvania was not entirely for New York, but at the end of the day it developed that the fall had attracted no inconsiderable investment demand for Philadelphia account. The early weakness in the stock was attributed to a report that the Pennsylvania Company was negotiating $25,000,000 loan in Paris, but this was denied by First Vice President Green. Today tne price relaxed per cent. offerings that came mainly from New York. Philadelphia houses accumulated rot a small quantity of the stock for investment accounts.

Compared with other securities the shares appeal to the investor as an attractive purchase. At one period of the trading Reading commanded a higher figure than Pennsylvania, yet the annual dividend return on the latter is greater by 2 per cent. Collectively the list moved in much the same groove that characterized recent markets. Withal the tendency was distinctively upward for local stocks. The only recession of note was that incurred by Lehigh Valley in the forenoon, but this was fully recovered later.

Stocks that moved to a higher range included American Railways, Electric Company of America, Philadelphia Company anassented stock and ter jumped points last prePennsylvania Steel commotie The latvious sale. While brokers were still complaining of the absence of business. little hope is heid out for a season of activity for some time to come.
