NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Market i$ Active for Day Before
Triple Holiday.
PRICES ADVANCE SLIGHTLY
Bnrlnar I Mostly by Board Room
Trader Who Had old Short
Crop .Xerrs I More
Fororable.
NEW TORK. April 16.-The stock market
showed more life today than wa expected
on the eve of a triple holiday. The tone
was quite strong at times. The demend
which advanced prices wa attributed
largely to professional origin. The board
room traders have been bearish and the
short account proved the more extended
when It came to evening up contracts pre
liminary to the holiday.
Some attention was attracted by a stale-mer-t.
apparently Inspired, that the Erie
financial settlement was not the eleventh
hour makeshift It has been assumed to be,
but was the carrying out of a definite plan
having the assent of the company bankers
and prepared some time before as an alterna
tive to cover the failure of the plan offi
cially offered. This fart was urged against
the supposition! that friction had existed be
tween the Morgan and Harrlmnn powers In
the Krle settlement. There were reports
In circulation also of sales having been
made of largo heldlng of railroad stocks
held by other railroads In the furtherance
of policies of community of Interest In the
past. These rumors applied especially to
the Vanderhllt holdings of Lehigh Valley
and to holding of Reading by other com
panies. The purchase was reported by J. P.
Morgan k Co. of a $18,000,000 bond Issue on
a subsidiary company of the Lake Shore,
whl-h gave hopeful expression of the
growth of Improvement in the Investment
situation. I'nlon Pacific was a leader in
the day's market and absorbed a large share
of the total transactions. Some effect was
produced by reiteration of reports of plana
for the comprehensl va advance in freight
rates by the railroads and of the sanction
of this action by the Interstate Commerce
commission.
The Baltimore & Ohio made the first re
port of March net earnings at hand
and It $469,127 decrease compared with
March of last year did not promise well
for the Influence of economies effected by
the railroads in conserving their net return.
Crop news was favorable In the reports of
rains In Kansas and in the assurances ex
pressed by the Cincinnati Price Current
against any harm from drouth up to the
present time. .There was some heavy buying
of Cnlted Btates Steel and the strength of
this stock had added serjtimental effect
from the prenent In this city of a large
gathering of iron men, although the object
of their consultations was known to be to
fortify themselves against the cutting of
prices, which la acknowledged to be In prog
ress. Known movement of money up io
Wednesday night ludicnto a gain by the
bank of nearly $10,000,000, after allowing
for tho $1,000.0110 engaged for export to Paris.
Foreign exchange held firm. A million more
wa taken for export to Paris and addi
tional gold export are taken for granted.
Call money was loaned na high as 2 per
cent, compared with a maximum of 14 per
cent on the previous day this week. The
declaration of a dividend on Amalgamated
Copper at an unchanged rate was in accord
with expectations and was not a marked
Influence. The bond market showed con
siderable variety and a firm tone, although
the aggregate volume of transactions was
not large. Total sales, par value, $6,029,(0).
Cnlted States 2s registered awl 3a regis
tered have advanced and the 3s coupon

CATTLE The break In the cattle market
thia week reflected In very much lighter re
ceipts at all market point this morning.
In fact none of tho market had anything
like liberal run. A a result of the mod
erate offerings there wa a better feeling
generally prevailing.
Buyer of beef eteers Were out In tho
yard in good season in tha morning and
the few loads offered met with very ready
sale. The price paid were strong to a
111 lie higher than yesterday' general mar
ket. Well finished heavy steer sold a
high a $6.45.
Cow and heifer were also In very light
supply, the offerings consisting for the
most part of odda and end scattered here
and there through the yard. Practically
everything sold early In the morning, and
a was the case with beef steer .price
were strong to a llttlo higher all around.
There wa only a load or two of Block
er or feeder In first hand this morning,
which wa not enough to make a market.
The feeling was Just about ateady, there
being no quotable change in any direction.

A little of the old wild west was turned
loo at Kimball. Monday night, when a
half-breed Indian by the name of Joe
Riley made threat against the. life of
Town Marshal Btewart. . Riley had ridden
In from the reservation during the morning
with his partner and proceeded to fill up
with boose, and while In this drunken con
dition he made threats around town. In
th evening the marshal! got his shotgun
