The usual accumu lation over Sunday of "buy at the market" orihrs caused n buoyant opening In many slocks. The dealings were on a tremendous ifcale , particularly In the morning , nnd the total transactions were over 1,250,000 shares. The most sensational ndvnncos were among the specialties , many of which main tained gains to .thu close , although the rail ways eased oil. The legal rule , G per cent , was thu prevailing figure for call money on good collateral , but the 'range ' for th * day was from 6 to 8 .per cent , with the closing at the lower llgure. Although thu London market was clon-d because of the Easter holidays , arbitrage brokers put out some HnH of stock In the expectation of getting them bnck cheaper In London tomorrow. Iho market throughout was highly specu lative , with rapid advances nnd declines. Manhattan , on the tremendous dealing- ' . maintained n udvanco of G points. The stock was apparently controlled by pool op erations , support toeing extended on declines and much realizing appearing nt thn high llguro ? . Federal Stoe.1. on transactions second end mly , to those of Manhattan , sold early at the highest figures yet reached and then receded sharply , leaving n net loss of 1H points. The preferred advanced about ns much. American Steel was pushed tip 3 point" . Missouri Pacific , on trading of over 100,000 shnrus , advanced 3 points on buying by n pool said to Include some of th ? Insid ers. Kansas & Tcxus preferred at the same time was marked up over a point. The announcement of the privilege to sub scribe for mw stock In Brooklyn Transit , together with an erroneous report of n cash dividend declaration , unused the stock to sell up 13G. but It receded 6harply , leaving n not decline of over 2 points nt the close.

As there were so few here the local packers bought the sleers nt strong prices and sellers without exception were well pleased with r = i = ults. There was nolh- ing choice lo put a top on the market so that sales do not look particularly high on paper. Tin- few cows and heifers In the yards brought good llrm prices , the same as at the close ot last we = k , and buyers were not long In clearing the pens. Hulls , stags , etc. , sold tit about the same prices as prevailed the last of lust week and the market was without change of Importance on that kind of oattls. Stock catlle and feeders were In very light supply and there were not enough lo make any kind of lest of Ihe market. It would be wife , however , to say that the market was fully steady , with -n very fnlr demand for desirable kinds. < Representallve sales : STEERS. 3. .

The proportion of sales at $3.63 was somewhat greater than at the close cf Inst week. It will be noted from thp table of average rtrlrps above that the market Is now 5c higher than it was at thp opening of last week. It might be added thai Ihe hogs sold today at the highest point touclKtl on a Monday since Ihe middle of February. The market is now ju t about where It was thn 1st of April ot last year , but It Is Hue lower than It was two years ago. Repre- scnlallve soles : Blsted principally of lambs.
