NEW YORK. March 23 Transactions In
stocks today rose considerably over the
routiii million share mark estanllshed yes
terday, and they were not so overwhelm
ingly preponderant in Union fuel tic as yes
terday. That stock was still a central figure

The prollt-taklna in Union TacUle. how
ever, was steady and persistent, and this
nau an ultimate enect on tne wnoie mar
ket, w hich showed signs of languor towards
the end of the day.
The official clrculur announcing the terms
for redistribution of the Northern Securi
ties holdings of Great Northern and North
ern Pacific stocks gave no direct ground
for yesterday s excited lump in Union Pa
cific. The supposition that any contest for
control in the transcontinental field had
broken out again waa belled by the firm
ness of tho rest of the market. The theory
was much more plausible that the buying
of Union Pacific was to secure an Influen
tial noiuing on the part of the controlling
powers In tha Great Northern and North.
ern Paclllc in compensation for Union Pa
cific's Influence In Great Northern, North
ern Pacific and Burlington. The persistence
of the profit-taking In Union Pacific undor-
minea me market and only fractional gains
were left at the last where there had been
the principal strength, while the average
level of prices was below Inst nlirht'a nlo.

CATTLE There waa a big run of cattle
here thla morning, but at soma of the other
markets receipts were not at nil excessive,
and In fact at some points cfferlngs were
quite moderate. As a result there was a
rood strong demand at tMs point and trad
ng ruled active with prices averaging a
tihnde stronger.
The aame aa has been the caae of late
corn-fed steers made up tha, blgr end of
the receipts, and the quality was nothing
to brag of. Buyers, though, - took hold
freely and the kinds that aulted them were
strong, with some sales a&ltOo - higher.
Other kinds, though, were not much more
than ateady. Tidy, blocky cattlo of cood
quality sell to the best advantage and tha
advance this morning waa confined largely
to that class Plain cattle, no matter if
they were fat, did not show any quotable
change, r.elther did thin cattle. Buyers
seem to be looking more at quality than
tney nBVe tor some little time. It was not
hard this morning, thous-h. to sell most
any kind of cattle nt steady prices, so the
duik or tne arrivals was disposed or lit
goftd seaaon. .
Tha cow market 'was also active and
stronger, with handy weight cows and
heirers or goon Mesh and quality safely 5ff)
10c higher. Big heavy cows as well aa the
commoner kinds of nil weights did not
ahow much Improvement over yesterday's
prices, but there was a better demand and
aalesmen found it easier to dispose of the
undesirable grades than has been the cse
of late. Trading waa quite active and tho
early offerings were soon out of first
hands.
The bull market continued dead dull
with no improvement In prices. There
were a good many on aale and the demand
waa very limited and aa a result salesmen
had considerable difficulty to dispose of
what they had at aallsfactory prices. Veul
calves were active and steady.
There was no quotable change In the
prlcea paid for atockera and feeders. Re
ceipts were not particularly heavy and
anything nt all choice Bold freely at ateidv
prices. Others not ao brisk, but about
steady. Representative sales:

HOGS Receipts thla morning were not
excessive at any point and tho feeling was
If anything a little better. The market
here opened stronger on the light butcher
hogs, or those weighing from about 200 M
840 pounds. Such hogs sold as high US 85,
but It was mostly the shippers that were
bidding the stronger prices. After they
had their orders filled local packers would
not give over steady prices and the bulk
of the hogs had to sell on about that basis.
Trading waa not very active, as salesmen
thought they ought to get more money.
The moat of the butcher and good weight
hogs aold from 84.HO to 85, with prime load3
from 85 to 85.10. The top price today was
paid for a very fancy heavy load. Light
trashy loads so.d from 81.80 down. Repre
sentative sales:

SHEEP AND LAMBS There was an
other good run of sheep here this morning,
but the same aa has been the case all the
week, tho demand waa of liberal propor
tions and the market ruled active and
fully ateady. In fact, some of the kinds
that Just aulted buyers were In some In
stances a little stronger, but on the other
hand the commoner kinds were hard to
sell at steady prices. Trading was quite
active so that the bulk of the early ar
rivals was aold In good seaaon. Some
ewes sold as high as 84.30, and wethers
and yearlings mixed sold for 84.80. There
were no strictly choice straight wethers or
yearlings on sale.
The lamb market was again dull, except
in the case of strictly choice. Aa high as
85.50 was paid thla morning for some well
finished lamba. but tha Inferior grades were
dull and barely steady.
