SMOKL FILLS ROOM IN BLINDING CLOUDS Plaa for the Distribution f KortU- cra Serorltles Holdlaga auad Sym- yathetle Storks Oceasloa of Excited Specalatloa. NF7W YORK. March 28. Today's stock market waa a amall affair and trading cen tred again in Luton Paclrto. That lim n fluctuated over a range of slightly more than a.DoInt above last nlsht s level, with constant reactions and ended the day with ah advance of c. Borne excitement waa caused all through the Stock exchange neighborhood by the outbreak of a danger ous fire near at hand on Broadway, and the clouds of bllndina and autTocating smoke pervaded the exchange floor and the omces and nail ways ot tne great 0111,0 buildings aurroundlng it. Attention waa thus diverted irom tne u.urnei ana tne trading waa dull and languid. A reaction before the bank statement carried prices back In the neighborhood of last night's level and there waa an Indifferent rally after Its publication. The closing was dull and neavy. ine bank statement showed something more thsn the expected increase In cash hold ings. Tne liberal loan expansion carriea that Item fairly above the bllllon-dollar mark for the first time In the history of the clearing house. The Increase In bor rowing was attributed largely to the In crease In speculation on the Stock ex change. Total sales of bonds, par value, 860, 0UO. The clan for the distribution or tne Northern Securltlea holdings of Northern Pacifio and Great Northern waa the oc casion of an excited speculation on two dava of the week. Transactions on Tues day In over 400.000 shares of Union Pacific one at an advance or over 8 points was an incident which nnda few parallels in ine nistory or tne stock exenange. one fiarallel waa the excited competitive buy na of Northern Pnriflc In 1901. which tire. cipltated the corner in that atock. The I nlon I'aclflo movement came under sua plrlon of a speculative and manipulative origin. The precedent was recalled or the enormous absorption or Southern railway which followed the Intimations of the lodgment of the iAuisville & Na?hvllls In a community of Interest In the south. Dealings In Southern railway for one day mounted up to M4.000 shares and were not followed by any change of representa tion in tne control or that railway. The laggard movement in United States Steel In view of the reports of revived activity In the Iron and ateel trnde waa especially notable, although the tips from tnai trade had a cheering influence upon the general sentiment. So did the ralna In the southwestern wheat belt, This In fluence waa somewhat modified by the ad vance In price of wheat. The avoidance of a soft coal strike and favorable con ditions In the anthracite trade were bene ficial Influences. Prospects for mllroad arnlnga were better. Exchange advanced to the gold export p'lnt. but the con tinued Inflow of Japaneae gold has had an effect. The money rates have fallen and Interest on time Inane Is at a point which en courage the holding of dividend paying rnnroHo stocks ar present points.

For ine week ie- ocipis are a trifle Bhort of luat week, but h compared with in." uorretiponding week f last year there la but little chance. Beef a leers have made up the bin nd or tlio receipts nil the week and the i(ua ity hua been about the aame as of late. The (hipping demand, as well us the demand from lo-al packers, lias been in good su.ip nd wni.e price nave fluctuated duck and forth to ouite an extent, still the neneral tendency ha been upwrd. The noil eab:e ca lure or tne ttaue tnis wctK ttii tne at' entlun eiven by packer to the duality of the cattlp. They nil eeoincd to want month, even, well-finished, blocky ca tie or all weights, and those kinds are gtn r- ftlly lOxiloc higher ror tne week. 1'iain and Uneven cattle have not sold so freely nnd are verv little hierher than a week nsro. while tvarmed-uns are orobabl.v more thun steadv. Good to choice cattle are ruotable from J4.Cft to 85.00, with aomethlng foncy as high as $5.25; fair to pood enttle adl from $4 il to 84.50 and the short-fad kinds from in Ml to 14 00 Th ,'ow market has been bnsk mint ail the wet'k and good lluhtwelght heifers and well-finished rows or ngnt to mianim weight are generally a (ftiarter higher man a week niro.

The market lias been ratner bpotteo, being a little stronger on some day than on others, but at the clou of the week trier Is practically no quotable change rom the cloae of last week, ine better grades on most daya have aold readily nougn. while common kinua nave Deeti neglected to some extent. Uood to cholco glad are uuotable at from $3-75 to . with someining atrictiy cnoice a inn above that; fair to good from $3.60 to U. and the commoner kinds from 83.00 down. HOUS There was another ngnt tun ot hogs here thi morning and with a fairly liberal demand the market allowed an advance of fully a nickel. Trading was fairly actlv. ao tnat moat vryining waa disposed of Id good aeaaon. Th am aa was tne case yesterday, ins rang 01 prices was narrow, ths big bulk of th hogs selling within a spread of a nickel. Quality and not weight now determlnea prlcea. tuner cnoice 11 envies or uguia top the market, aa la shown by the fact that hoga weighing 277 pound and others only ltj pounds sold today at $5,17 and tuG-pound hogs brought 85.20. The bulk of tne nogs soia irom to.iu 10 o.i, witu toe long string at nm. common, trasny Stuff sold from $5.10 down. For the week receipt nave been ngnt, arrivals showing a loss of about lo.oix) head, both aa compared with laat week and with the corresponding week of last year. The demand has been liberal, both from shipper and local packers, and prices nave moveu sieauny uiiwaiu ever biiiuv Monday. As compared with the close of last week trier is a net gain amounting to about 15c. Thla advanc carries th mar ket nearly back to where It was Maron IS. The light receipts this week are taken as an Indication that farmere are not willing to sell their hogs for leas tnan 80 ou. lusp- ressnlatlve sales: Mar. l... ( 18 Mar.
