Stock Mnrkrt Continues Very Actlp
nml Vnrled,
NEW YORK. 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. Tho fact has developed re
garding Loudon's buying of stocks recently
in tnis market thnt tho funds for tbeso
operations nro due to lonns secured in this
money market, which explains tho limitless
of tlio sterling exchange market in face
ot London buying nnd the lndlfferencu of
tho London speculative, movement to tho
stringency of tho London money market.
London took profits on 11 large scale today
anil us selling ot siocks niioiil cqunlcd Its
buying. A number of strong returns ot
net earnings for February wns disregarded
In the trading.
Tho bond market wns not so nctlve ns
yesterdny, but a lnrge business was dono
nt advancing prices. Total snles, par value,
$4,883,000. United Stntes 2, registered, nd
vnnced 14 nnd United Htntcs coupon nnd
new 4s U In tho bid price; tho old 4s de
clined i nnd the 6s 14.
Tho Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram snys: Americans were
ngaln tho mnlu featuro in tho market hero
today, although tho volume of business
was smaller than yesterday; they opened
strong, well nbove parity, Paris nnd Berlin
nlso buying. This movement wus met by
hea'y realizing nnd prices rencted, but mi
lled somewhat and remained dull till 0
p. m., when New York opened with n
spotty tendency, selling most things nnd
later everything. In tho house prices
closed wenk, but there was some rallv lu
the street, most securities sbowlnir ir'nlns
on balances. .Southern Pacific wns a Lon
don favorite In tho morning. Hates were
sun ono nut takers-ln of Baltimore &
Ohio wero pretty numerous. Consols nnd
tho wnr lonn were weak, the tendencv In
money being to hnrden. thouch loan 'nml
discount rntes were tinchnnged nnd thero
wero some signs or nn enrly break. Tho
Bank of England did a considernbln fresh
business In discounts. Sliver was firm, the
east buying. The bnnk bought JCU.000 gold
in oars unci got Jtiii.ow irom Holland.

CATTLE There was a good Tuesday's
run of cnttlo today, but tho weather was
most unfavorable for a market. There was
a steady fnll of rnln all the morning which
made the cattle look anything but at
tractive, nnd which kept everyone Indoors
except thoso who were compelled to be out.
Tho result wns that tho market opened n
little lato. Tho genernl market wns without
featuro or Importance so fnr as tho condi
tion of the trndo wns concerned.
Ixical packers all seemed to want fat
steers nnd the market on thnt kind of cattle
wns fairly nctlve, so thnt the most of the
offerings changed hands In good season. Tho
prices paid wero Just nbout the same ns
prcvnlled yesterday, tho market being
quoted Just about steady.
Cows and heifers were In fair demiind and
the price wero about the Mine ns yester
day. Good cows nnd heifers, ns will be
noted from the snles below, sold well, but
common cows aro poor sellers, Fat bulls,
If heavy, nro also selling badly, ns the
senson Is pretty well advanced nnd packers
seem to bo determined to pound them down.
Blockers nnd feeders sole! In the snme old
notches. Tho weather was against tho
trnde in thnt kind of cattle, but still there
seemed to be a fair demand and as there
were very tew rnme or tnat Kind offered,
tho supply was pretty well cleaned up. Rep
resentative sales:

8HKHP-There was onlv n moderate run
nnd a good demand so thnt the mnrket
wns in n good healthy condition. 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.
