with bullish European advices repotting

the decreased slocks In the northwest were
tha causes tor the better demand. The re

crs. none of contract grade, made total

changing going on selling May and buy
ing July. The cash market was dull on

63 loads sold to the continent, much of It

lcea from Koumanla and South Russia
less favorable and advices from Paris said
It looked as If France would need to Im

Conaola for money. .94 7-14
NEW YORK. April 2. The stock market
today continued almoe-t wholly In profes
sional hands and there was a further
dwindling of operations. The tone of the
market was heavy to weak throughout.
The motives which prompt the professional
operators are aimcuit to discern, un lues
day they bought stocks with money at 15
per cent in tne connaence mat me can
money market was about to relax. Yes
terday they sold stocks again, although
there was a distinct relaxation In the call
money rate, with a promise of a further
growth of ease. Some other considerations
apparently nad intervened which caused a
question whether the easier money market
was destined to benefit the stock market.
The Southern Pacific quarrel weighed on
tne market. 1 ne developments in this con
troversy showed nothing to affect directly
the value of the securities concerned, but
tne bitterness of feeling shown by the con
tending parties and the boldness of t lelr
habitual methods In stock market opera
tions kept alive a fear that a speculative
duel might be precipitated in the market It
self, witn probably disastrous consequences
to many innocent onlookers. Another dis
turbing factor was the renewal of liquida
tion In Pennsylvania, carrying It back to
last week's low level. The selling received
a renewed Impetus from the February
statement of net earnings, which showed
the expenses Increased more than twice aa
much as the Increase In gross earnings,
with a corresponding cut In .the net re
turns. The net earnings for two months
are Inrreased over $1,000,000 less than for
the same two months last year. Taken In
connection with the February Union Pa
cific statement published on Tuesday show
ing a decrease in net earnings or 4413.4,4.
there Is a disposition to surmise that the
recent liquidation in that stock may have
been from other than professional bear
sources. The mildness of tne demand for
stocks for short account and the little help
given to any rally In the market from h9
demand to cover emphasizes this Impres
sion. The question of the action to be taken.
by the Wabash employes roiiowlng the dis
solution of the strike Injunction, ts awaited
with some concern, as was Indicated by
the heaviness of the Wabash stocks today.
The decline In Western Union had no other
explanation than the progress reported to
be making toward a commercial basis by
the wireless systems. A sharp break In
the local copper market affected Amalga
mated Copper. The attack on Coloradi
Fuel was professedly based on the pro
posed bond Issue. Earge customs pay
ments, dei-osits to retire circulation and
some large miscellaneous collections re
sulted In an absorption by the aubtreasury
yesterday or ti.Z44.uuo in spite or the gov
ernment Interest payable. This proved a
disappointment. The statements of the
great foreign banks for the week reflected
the enormous requirements ror tne April
settlement. A reflux of funds to the mar
ket, however. Is now In order In both for
eign money markets and here, so that the
Immense money situation is of declining

HOGS Recelnts of hoes were llcht aaraln
thin morning and as the demand was quite
lloeral prices Improved a little. The
market was all the way from steady to 6c
hie her. At the start some hogs gold at
steady prices, but later packers were
afraid there were not going to be enough
to till their Immediate orders and tne
market strengthened and sales were made
ihitfoc higher. Toward the close, though,
the market eased off a little. The general
market averages right around 2Vc higher
than yesterday. The bulk of ths hogs
sold lrom $1.21 to t7.32i4. The prime
heavies sold mostly from the latter figure
to $7.40 and the lightweights sold from
t7.2i down.
The early arrivals were sold at an early
hour, but several trains were late In arriv
ing, which delayed the close. Representa

Futures opened steady and ruled fairly ac

lower and while the day's movement waa
not quite up to the recent average estimate
for Brazilian, recelnts for April were large
and the market turned slightly easier with
shorts taking profits, ths best buyers. The
cli.be was steady at unchanged prl.-es to a

PATTI.E There waa another fairly lib
eral run of cattle here today, but In spite
of that fact the market ruled active and
strong on all desirable grades and a fairly
early clearance was made.
Beef steers again made up the bulk of
the offerings and the handy weights con
tinued lnvthe best demand and they could
safely be quoted strong and active. Buy
er all seemed to be anxious for that class
of cattle, and as there were a limited num
ber on sale the market ruled active and a
good many sales looked a little higher.
The heavy cattle, however, were in liberal
supply, and the prices paid were certainly
no more than steady with yesterday, and
some salesmen complained that they were
unable to get quite as much as they did
yesterday. , .
The demand for cows and heifers was
brisk and the prices paid looked a little
stronger. The demand, however, was con
fined largely to the better grades a canners
were slow sale and prices were no better
than they have been for some time past.
There are but very few canners coming,
and that Is largely the reason that they are
so hard to sell at satisfactory prices. If
there were enough to make It an object
for packers to buy them the market would
probably be in better shape.
Bulls veal calves and stags all sold In
about the same notches they did yesterday.
Stockers and feeders were hardly a ready
seller tut they were earlier In the week.
The very Deal graues we imiu.u.j kwui
steady but when It came to the commoner
kinds the market was slow and. If any
thing a little lower. The demand from
the country the last day or two has hardly
been up to expectations, which accounts for
the weaker feeling. Representative sales:

SHEEP There was a moderate supply of
sheep and lambs here ths morning, but
the market did not seem to be quite as
brisk as It has been of late. There was
not much change from yesterday's extreme
close, but the late arrivals yesterday did
not meet with as good a demand as those
that arrived earlier In the day. The weak
ness seems to be confined largely to the
part-fed stuff and some sales of that class
of stuff were made that looked a big dime
lower than the same kinds sold for at the
best time yesterday. Receipts have been
pretty liberal at all points so far this week
which probably accounts In a Iarg. measure
for the rather Indifferent tone tu the trade
today.
There were a few feeders on sale IN
morning, but they brought Just about gtsaaaty
prlcts.
