NEW YORK , April 4.-Slock trading to

larly. After a wild unit high opening fo
many stocks , realizations of. active Inter
cats ami depressing efforts on the part o
professionals tended lo produce recessions
particularly in the active speclalllPS. whir !
of lale have ultittned the largest advance ?
The trallli ! ( .gre ment between Third Avenue
nuo and Manhattan producetl u largo nd
vnnco In both of those properties nt th
opening , Third lAvenuo rising 0 points ntii
Manhattun 6. This brought about extcnslv
rcnllzlng and the stocks gradually receded
Third Avenue losing S points on the da :
nnd Mnnhullan halt iw much. Metropolltai
lost S',4 ' points , although nt one time H wn
down 8'.4 on liquidation .Induced . by 'the ' com
blnulion c-f Hio rival companies. Talk o

realizing on Brooklyn Transit's large nd
vnnco , caused Ihe slock to case off 3 points
The Iron nnd ijtecl sWares ended Irregulnrl ;
changed , with Federal and American Wlr
down sharply. International Paper lost
points and Chicago Gas 3. Excepting th
coalers , which rose In some leases mate
rlally , the general railway list showed lllll
change , Iho grangers being fr.ictlonnlly off
Among Iho speohilllcs lo display slrcngtl
were Rubber , Tin Plate , Leather preferred
Continental Tobacco nnd lyoug Island , th

confusion ot views on Ihe Stock exchange
Traders were inclined lo mak' much o
crop prospects , the iidvlces from the grali
regions 'being mixed sis usual Jit tlite sea
son of Ihe year. The Impression w < is rathe
general lhat much liquidation had com
from active Interests , but there was no eer
tnlnty 'bul ' lhat part of their former hold
IURS had been 'repurchased < it a 'lower level
Uncertainty ns to .the lmmdlnte poslllon o
largo speculative Interests was the cause o
somf ) of Ihe commission house selling. Ii
some quarters , however , stocks were stll
tnnclously held. Call money continue *
firm and ranged from fi to G per cent , will
most ot the business nt the higher llcurc
The dealings for the day exceeded 1. 000,00

tone wns furnished by the accumulation o
small buying orders. The market liecnrm
easier later. Thursday's bank slatement I
not liked. Americans "began " hard , but It
the abtcnco of business eased off. Nev
