Insettled, Flaetnatlng Market Hard
ens "omen hat at dose.
NEW YORK March . The stock market
continued unsettled today and traversed
Its range of prices several tirihi, but the
ilnal result showed that the urgent pressure
ot liquidation had spent I, self and that the
bear party telt themselves at tne limit of
e.itety on the rhort side. Probably the
demand rrom this element to cover Ihelr
short contrai ls was the principal factor In
tne late strong rally In prices. There was,
however, some Indication ot Investment de
mand on the decline.
Support was evident at the opening and
he.d an Important effect In relieving the
anxiety caused by yesterday s many rumors
ot tluaiiciil emnurrasmrnt which were
considerably cleared this morning, with a
renssuring effect upon the senllinent. The
money situation, however, showed no sensi
ble relaxation, the call loan rate running
up to per cent early in the day. This was
the occasion nt the first brtuk In stocks.
After a period of dullness at about the
level of last night's prices, a drlvo was
mane ut the market, which tarried many
prominent stocks a point or more below
last night's level. The leaders had been
as much above on the opening r:se. The
market seemed to have oeen sold to a
standstill on this drive and made an Ir
regular recove-y until, near the close, ths
leaders rose agutn fn.m 1 to 2 points over
last night. There were slight recessions
belore ihe close, which was Irregular.
Much attentlcn was paid in the specula
tive circles to the gossip concerning a
possible legal contest against the I'nlon
Pacific's rlt,ht to tote Its ho. dings of South
ern Pacllic stock at the latter company's
annual meeting. The existence of a long
stnnulng pool In Southern Pacific Is com
monly accepted In Wall street Its opera
tions and commitments being based upon
the assumption of an early refunding opera
tion lor bouthetn Puclnc, accompaule.1 by
the Inauguration of dividends on the stock.
'Ihe policy -of the I'nlon Pacific control In
deferring dividends on Southern Pacific and
making neavy outlays out of earnings had
come In for bitter criticisms from the pool
Interests. These are apparently Identified
with the movement to contest I'nlon Pa
cilic s control. It Is said the leader of the
pool has usFumed the leadership of an
aggressive bear movement In the general
market during the opt ration of the week.
The vigorous ruMy at the close today was
accompanied by rumors that a truce had
been patched up between tho contending
Interests In this dispute.
The quieter cotton market had art in
fluence In the recovery In stocks. The
estimates of the bank statement based on
the known movements of currency also
seemtd to have a calming effect.
The subtr-aaury yesterday took more
than 31.oiW.ocio from the market, again bring
ing Its absorption for the week ip to
$fi,123,0C0. This probably about measures
the loss of the banks on all accounts, as
the Interior movement was about evenly
balanced. But last week's bank statement
understated the cash decrease by nearly
$4,01)0.000, so tha the average- this week
may have to make up the discrepancy.
Ihe large liquidation In the stock market
points to extensive loan contraction. The
late recovery in stocks, however, pointed
to some recovered confidence In the money
situation. German banking houses In the
city were large lenderu today and sterling
exchange waa weak under good offerings
of loan bills.
Wheat exports for the week Increased
834.000 bu. and corn exports increased
1,448.000 bu.
Dry goods Imports fell $1,204,613 below
those of last week.
1'nlted States bonds sold as law as 87,
when Issued, or within a fraction of parity
with the preferred stock. Northern Se
curities also was largely sold. Inactive
stocks continued to show wide declines be
fore a market was found.
Ponds moved In sympathy with stocks.
Total sales, par value, $2,710,000.
United States 2s advanced per cent on
the last call.

ment restricted business. Consols hard
ened and then reacted. Americans opened
weak, but later there was an Inclination to
buy and prices hardened to above parity.

CATTLE The receipts of cattle today
were about normal for a Friday, and the
market showed no great changes. The
supply for the five days this week has
fallen behind the receipts for the same
period of last week, but there Is a good,
substantial Increase over the same days ot
last yeat. .
About the usual proportion of the receipts
this morning consisted of beef steers, and
buyers took hold airly well and paid just
about ateady prices for everything offered.
The better the quality the easier the cattle
were to dispose of, but still even the half
fat stuff sold to about as good advantage
as It did yesterday. As receipts were
limited the pens were soon cleared.
The cow market seemed to be rather tin
even. Some salesmen were well satisfied
with the market, and were quoting It
steady, while others thought they did not
do quite as well as yesterday. It will be
remembered, however, that yesterday's
market was also a little uneven. Taking
the average there was very little change
from yesterday In the prices paid.
Bulls, veal calves and stags also sold
without material change, the demand ap
parently being fully equal to the supply.
Stockers and feeders were scarce this
morning, and as speculators carried over
very few from yesterday, anything at all
desirable sold at lust about steady prlcea.
Common kinds, though, were slow sale, as
not much demand from the country was
expected for the remainder of this week.

HOtJS There was not an excessive supply
of hogs here today, bjt as all other mar
kets were quoted lower prices here also
took a tumnle. The decline amounted to
Just about 66.110c. Trading was not exactly
brisk, but still Ihe bulk of the offerings
was disposed of In good season. Good
htavy hogs sold largely from I7.W to 17.10
and prime heavy eights sold up to $7.17'.
The medium weights went largely from tti 30
to $7.i and the light stuff from l down.
The last end of the market was If any
thing a shade easier, as packers filled their
more urgent orders and were then not as
anxious for supplies. Representative sales:

SHEEP There was a fairly liberal supply
of Bheep here this morning, but the quality
was rather on the common order. The bet
ter grades jold without much trouble at
steady prices, but when It came to tne com
mon kinds the market wat. Blow and weak.
Wethers and yearlings may safely be
qjoted steady for the week. Ewes have
sold at the highest prices of the season, but
the quality was also the best, so that, all
things considered, the market for the week
is not much more than steady.
The lamb market, however, has suffered
a severe break at all points. The decline
here for the week is fully 2640c on all
kinds. There were very few killers offered
today, but packers did not seem to be par
ticularly anxious ror any.
There were aulte a few feeder lambs on
sale, but the market was a little slow owing
largely to the fact that the close of the
week Is so near at hand. As compared with
the close of, laat week, .though, . feeders
are about steady.

NEW YORK. March .-COTTON-Mar-ket
opened steady at an advance of 5
points, the Improved tone being due to
continued support by the clique, further
coverings of shorts and better Liverpool
cable than was required to meet the close
of New York yesterday. The early market
for today's receipts showed some decrease
In tho figures of last year, but almost Im
mediately following the call there was a
renewal of the liquidation and short selling
noted yesterday morning and prices were
rapidly forced down, May selling hi low as
9 6V, or 22 points below the best of tho
morning, 62 points below the best prico of
the week and 17 points below last night's
finals. The options at thin time showed
declines of from l"t24 points as compared
with the best of the morning; at this level
the clique again, came to the support of
the market and a sharp rally ensued which
carried prices back a few points, but the
steadier tone was followed Just before the
Close by another wave of selling, which
closed the market weak, net 9"i'.'5 points
lower, at which level prices were &jj'9 points
below the lowest of yesterday on the
nearby options and about 43fi65 points be
low the best level, with March, the spot
month, showing the most pronounced
weakness, reflecting apparently the desire
of the longs to avoid lmmudiate deliveries.
The selling toward the close was largely on
the heavier ln-rtght for the week, which
according to the figures of tho New York
Cotton exchange show 192,098 bales, as com
pared with 134.681 last year.
