ing Immediate requirements of consumers.
Ailvlreu frnm lmdon also Indicated n
featureless market. Tin nt that point wns
unchanged, with spot quoted at US nnd
futures at 111 7s fid. Locally the market
for tin ruled quiet hut steady nt 12i.7',4V

sellers und closed steady nt .C70 2s M for
spot and 70 12s Cd for futures, with the
local situation, while holdings as to tone
showed llttlo signs of activity and prices
remained nominally on the basis of $17.00

and electrolytic. Foundry Iron rilled dull

Interest In Union Pneltles Tnken ATrny
oy AlOlllHOIIH,
NEW YORK. May 2.-TI10 Atchison
stocks took tho leadership awny from
Union Pnclllc. both in point df strength and
activity. During the most of tho day tho
,,iuiiiu in 11 iiiipiiciiun in tin) i wo common
stocks ran a close race, but tho denltnxs
111 Atchison common nnd nreferreil ,.uallv
outstripped those In tho two Union Pacific
stocks. A heavy preponderance of tho total
irnnsacuous in 1110 wnole market cantered
In theso stocks. Thero have been conlldent
predictions that tho llrst dividend on Atchl
son for 11 half year would bo 2 per cent
and II Is likely that largo short Interest
wus accumulated In tho stock by those who
had hotter In format Ion In tho expectation
that yesterday's IV, per cent dividend would
bring out heavy offerings. As 11 matter of
fact tho offerings were very model ate.
Tho character of today's buying could by
no menus be safely attributed either to a
demand from shorts or to purely specula
tive manipulation. Tho movement whs sup
posed to bo duo to 11 new phase of the
struggle among the granger trunk lines to
secure for themselves compensatory ad
vantages to offset the llurllngton deal. Oftl
cluls of the St. Paul railroad were quoted
anonymously tills niornlnit as breathing
lurill nil rn ieiiiiin ui lilllllllllf; h new line
to tho Pacific unless they were accorded
a share In the advantages of the supposed
Union Paclllo absorption. This corroborates
tho ciinent supposition that the great
granger trunk lines feel themselves at n
practical disadvantage If they have not an
assured Paelllo roust nutlet as well as an
eastern trunk line connection and that nil
of them will sooner or later tako measures
to securn theso advantages. Tho movement
or prices today wns cited as giving evidence
that tho buying of Atchison was for the
beneilt of Ht. Paul and probably also of
Hock Inland.
There was a disposition lo attribute the
lato strngth of Baltimore & Ohio to plans
for making thai road tho eabtcm outlet
and the late spurt In Norfolk & Western
and Chesapeake & Ohio were supposed to
ndlcute tilteinatlvo possibilities. Tho dec
laratlon of the llrst dividend on Norfolk &
Western of 1 per cent was, however, the
more plausible explanation of tho strength
of the lust named. Tim feverish and erratic
lluetuations In Union Paclllo we "?npy ex.
plained by the new uncertainty surrounding
Its control, 'I hero were various rumors
both to he effect that tho Vanderbllt Inter
cst3 had perfected their control and that
tho Harrlmati Interest had secured the
maintenance of their control. Everv move
ment In the stock, and every rumor regard
ing me coniroi were looked upon with sus
picion by the uneosv snectilnlor.4 as 11 de
vice to further tho contest, and underlying
1111 was meir iireun inai wnen once the
actual control Is decided the high price will
not be maintained. The extreme ratine of
the stock was 6 points and the net loss
IS. Atchison advanced an extreme U'j und
closed within 11 fraction of the best. St,
Paul Is 2', hlcher on the ilnv. nhevnnenkn
A Ohio 314 and Norfolk & Western 1U. The
siockb included in the llurllngton deal, the
Eric stocks not excluded, were all notably
heavy. The heavy jirollt taking and weak
ness of the I'nlted Stntes Steel stocks had 11
large sentimental Inlluence on the whole
market. New York Central wus quite
severely handled and loses 3TS on the day.
Except for the few special points of
strengtn tno market was, on the whole, re
actionary. Tho money rate was distinctly
llrmer. The closing of the mnrket was kmsv
and almost weak, except for tho Ilnal spurt
in Atchison.
Union Pacific convertible bonds continued
active and the bond market otherwise was
irregular. Total shares par value, 17.1G3,Oti.
