Mnrch 27,-Tho stock mnr kct continued very nctlve nnd vnrled to day, but there was nn nppreclublo check to tho upward movement of prices nnd n distinct falling oft In the volumo of the demand. The disposition to reullzo m.ido Itself felt Itf additional stocks. As n con sequetico the market came to that condi tion during the day which the professional operators called tired. Its absorptive) power wns Impaired nnd tho weight of prollt-tnklng proved too much for many stocks which have been most prominent In the recent upward movement. This was conspicuously so of the southern group ot trunk lines, Including Pennsylvania, Nor folk & Western anil Baltimore ei Ohio. Tho stocks of tho Intter company llucttt nted widely all day nnd were under very palpable manipulation. Thn common nnd tho preferred stocks wero ngnln ostentatiously brought to a parity In tho late dealings. Tho purpose of tho maneuver was evident from the sug gestion set nllout that It Baltimore & Ohio common, without paying 11 dividend, could cross tho preferred stock other common stocks In the sumo situation might do like wise. Tho Paclllc stocks had to absorb n large amount of realizing nnd the Southern nnd Southwestern groups were affected by tho snme cause. The bituminous coal roads also enmo lo 11 halt. Other points of strength developed In the list and the net chitnges show 11 largo proportion of gains. Tho general tone of tho market, however, was by no menus so strong ns yestcrdny nnd tho transactions wero on it smaller Hcnle. Tho coalers, the high-priced Industrial, tho Iron nnd steel stocks nnd locnl trac tions nil showed evidence of strength nnd there we.'o some conspicuous nilvunces In stocks not usually traded In to nny extent. It would bo dltllcull to assign a cause In any news of tho day for the check to tho advance, but speculative sentiment ac corded moro attention to unfavorable, pos sibilities even of n contingent nature. Thus sotno question wns allowed to rise of tho futtiro of the money market, although tho present tendency Is nil toward greater case, rates lor cull lonns dropping to 2 per cent Into lit tho day. Tho banks are gaining cnsli on subtreusury operations nnd the Interior continues to remit to New York In payment ot loans Incurred for the pur chase of government tbonds, but tho com pletion of payments of tho premiums on government bonds offered for conversion Lwlll result In renewed drain Into the sub- treasury so long us tho government h rev enues continue so Inrgely lu excess of ex penditures. A suggestion ot another drnln on re sources for government nccount Is con tnlned In thn sailing for .Manila today of tho transport Sumner, taking out $1,300,000 for tho paymaster's department In the Philippines.

Buyers wero out early and tho most of 'he oturr chnnged hands In good season, the prices paid being steady to 10c higher than yes terday. The strength developed principally on sheep while lambs were not quite so much sougth after and no more than stendy, with tho close wek 10 10c lower. Tile St. Joseph people have had a good Anal to eay about Iambs selling higher nt that point than nt South Omaha. The facts nre thnt St. Joseph has no nearby feeding point like Fremont where the lambs from the west can be stopped and filled up. Be sides that sheer men wtio patronize both markets sny thnt they make n practice of delaying the watghlng nt St Josnph with the verv evident Intention of nllowlng tho lambs to shrink out. Moreover Inquiry among the packers develops the fact that thev would nrefer for theso reasons to nav loc more for lambs nt St Joseph than at South Omnhn., because they are shrunk out nnd kill to better ndvantage down thero than nt South Omahn, whero the Jill Is so much grenter. Hhon Teeders who nre In n nosltlon to go to either mnrket continue to ship to South Omaha after having tried the St. Josenh market nnd learned the tricks practiced.
