SEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Declining Teodicy Armtsd, but llgrkit
Contirnti Listlest and Apalhitio.
UNITED STATES STEEL THE VOST ACTIVE
Aaother Kote Issaed by the Sabsldlary
yadlrate of the Metropolitan
street Railway Company for
Relmboraemeat.
NEW YORK. April 2 -Today's stock
market was even more listless and apa-
hetlc than that of yesterday. The tree
declining tendency ot yesterday was ar-
rwtea. but this discouraged rather than
fostered activity. What the traders re
quired Is a movement of prices, whether
up or down. The arrest of the decline.
hererore. prompted the retirement of the
light contracts that had been put out un
tie short side. United States steel pre
ferred was the most active stock and its
recovery was In face of the practical con
firmation of the report prevalent yesterday
of the early dissolution of the preferred
stock conversion syndicate on which the
slock declined then. The second mortgage
bonds were sold down In the early niarkut
to the extent of a point.
Another note Issue today by the sub
sidiary syndicate of the Metropolitan
Street Railway company was said to be
for the reimbursement of the parent com
pany for Improvements already made and
for which the bonds provided could not be
msrketed. An initial engagement ot gold
for Thursday s steamer was made today
and bills sold In the exchange market
were supposed to be for other shipments
In contemplation. Weekly gross earnings
of railroads reporting wore lower than
last year and the net Increase for March
reported for the Atchison was without
effect on that stock. The weekly bulle
tin of the weather bureau on crops waa
not a helpful factor In spite of the Im
proved condition reported In the western
part of the winter wheat belt.
The recovery of a large fraction In
United States 8teel preferred was the only
movement of any significance In the day's
market. The closing was heavy and stag
nant. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value. $2,030,0)10. United States 2s declined

CATTLE There were not as many cattle
nere looay as arrived a week ago Dy about
2,000 hesa. The local demand and also the
snipping demand was brisk and trading
ruiea active,- with prices a little stronger
all around. buyers were out at an early
hour and It was nut long before the cattle
Dega.n moving toward me scales, and, in
feci, the bulk of the early arrivals was
soon out of first hands.
The market on corn fed steers could safely
be quoted strong and active. As Is gen
erally the case under such circumstances.
many of tne more desirable grades sold
at prices that looked as mucn as 6al0c
higher. The general market, though, is
best described by calling ll active and
strong. There were a good many cattle
ottered of better quality than the general
run. several bunches selling sa high as
85.0U. and this Improvement in the quality
of course makes tne maraei appear oeiier
on paper.
Tle cow maraer. waa aiso active ana
strong, with something strictly choice In
the way of ugnt-weigni neuers pernaps a
little higher. Trading was brisk from
start to finish and there did not seem to
be any too many on sale to meet the re
quirements of the trade, so that a good
cearance was made.
bulls, veal calves and stags all sold at
fully as good prices as were paid yester
day.
There were very few stockers and feed
ers included In the offerings and most of
those that did arrive were rather lacking
In Quality. Anything at an desirable could
safely be quoted steady and something
choice might nave sold a nine stronger
owing to the scarcity ot that class. Repre

HCK1S There was a fairly liberal run of
nogs nere mis morning, out receipts at
4ther tHlnts were not excessive, and local
packers seemed to be quite anxious for
suiiullrs. The market opened about steadv.
but gained In activity and strength an the
morning advanced until the market was
strong to a nickel higher than yesterday
market. The sales made early were largely
around 84.75. hut the later Improvement
made the hulk of the hogs sell from $4.7.i
to $4.80, with the choicer loads going
largely from $4.80 to $4.90. The less desir
able loads sold from 84.75 down. Salesmen
were complaining to some extent about the
way the light hogs were selling, ami by
light weights they mean those much under
200 pounds. The demand for that class Just
at present Is not very brisk and unless
very choice they have to sell considerably
under the bulk or tne nogs.
The extreme close of the market waa a
trifle wenk. as packers apparently had their
more urgent orders filled and took advan
tage of that fact to pound the market on
the late arrivals to some extent. The late
sales were largely nt $4.75 sAnd $4.77H and It
took something strictly choice to bring bet
tcr than that. Representative saies:

trifle higher. Everything changed hunds
about as fast as offered. Some cllorjed
wethers brought $6.16 and another atrii.g of
very choice ones sold fur $5.60, which Is the
top price of the season. The $6.50 clipped

loir woolen wethers sold for lb.60.
1 nere were very few lambs on sale, but
