NEW YORK. March .-H!ghr prices
for the standard railway shares baaed In
lanre part on more favorable earnings,
with a sagging or Irregular tone in the
Industrials which recently made up a
very coaeidersble portion of the dally
operations constituted the dominant fea
ture of today's dealings on th stock
exchange. ,
The Harrlroan issue were the mom
prominent stocks in the active railway
group, both Union and Southern Pacific
attaining their best prices for the move
ment. Returns of these lines for Febru
ary offer some warrant for the belief that
they are recovering from the effects of
the unusually eevere winter and th
strike trouble, which were most harm
ful to Kouthern Pacific Canadian Pa
cific, which followed Its 3-point rise in
London with a 4-polnt gain here, re
ported a net Increase for February oi
ll.J00.O0O. while Northern Pacific gained
over tauO.OOOi. ..
Among toe prominent eastern roaos
New York. New Haven Hartford In
creased It. net 12.000. while Lacka
wanna's Increase ws only I7J.O0O.
The market obtained lu early Inspira
tion from London, where condition, were
greatly Improved following Indications
that the coal strike Is on the verge of
dissolution. , .
The coal stocks, relatively heavy In
the early session, became more active In
th afternoon. Reading assuming leader
ship by Its rise above yesterdays best.
There was sliio some activity In the
Industrial., .chiefly Amalgamated Cop
per, at better prices, but trading con
tinued in moderate vokims. Price hard
ened generally In the last hour, but later
the movement became Irregular and al
most stagnant. , .
The week's bl gain In bank clearing.,
almost 34 per cent greater than In the
ana nerlnd last rear, attests the steady
Improvement In general buslneas through
out tn country, in im -
was over N per cant.
Th bond market was firm and showed
a generally better tendency.. Total sales,

In th nog yard and for a Urn at least
it looked as It packers would-fetlrs from
ths trads empty handed. Receipts were
liaht. and witn tns outeiae oemna n
orous and reasonably broad, bulk of tn
crop moved reaouy at mgner price, aariy
nrlce were quvieu generally a aims
higher, an advance that packers resented
by staying luraer wrw. vai oi uj sev
enty-toad asumate, order buyer and
a peculator purchased right around fifty
loadSw very nearly umriwriai u
,,,iaJ.
A tlreeome mil oevetopea in tne trad
aa soon aa shipping support was with-
drawn and movement wear along to
Mama finish at midday, late values ruling
merely steady lo a nicsei manor.
