NEW YORK , u\pril IS.-Stock prices ml- vnnced moderately today on professional dealings. Incld < enta where developments In the properties accounted for price move ments were many nnd manipulation wns prominent throughout the day's dealings. The abandonment of the tunnel scheme by Metropolitan was reflected In a loss of 3 iiolnt.4 In the stock and a gain of over 2 In Manhattan. Tcnnesso Coal and Iron gained 3H on nn expectation ot a change In ltn finances In connection with a nlo of the company's ral'.road. Colorado Fuel and Iron also advanced nearly 3 points. The decision by the court of appeals In favor of lirooklyn Transit left that stock nearly 2 points above yesterday's figures. What was * ald to be the covering of shorts raised Hurllngton 2 points coincident with an easier tone In the wheat market. A demand appeared for Louisville & South ern preferred , which bciiellted each n. point. The anthracite coalers were stronger , the oft-mooted "better regula tion of trade" possibility again doing service.
