Yesterday much ot the selling was accompanied by ex pressions of uneasiness over, the effect u;on public feeling towards securities caused by the Inquiry Into the coal car riers and the possibility - that further revelations of grafting practices will fol low the extension of the inquiry to other railroads and to other lines of traffic. Today the stocks Immediately affected by this Investigation were conspicuous in the rise, ana the view was promulgated that the exposure of grail amongst offi cials of these companies gives assurance of abolishing the abuse and of doing sway with the losses presumably involved foi the corporations through favoritism to Individual shippers. An advantage o the stocks was alleged to be promised In this way. There was also considerable discussion of the expressed gratification by the president of the Reading that hli rompnny was undefiled by graft pra-tlces. Reading and the coalers were made the lever for propping the market and lifting prices to a higher level. Th movement spread to other points, however, and trad ers who went short yesterday were gen erally inclined to cover today. There was general satisfaction ex pressed over the tranquil manner In which the resumption of banking was effected In .San Francisco, and conlldence was ex pressed that early return of cash to New York banks would follow. The transfer through the subtrensury today of ne-rlv 81,600.000 from San Francisco to New York was not without effect on sentiment although that amount of gold was received In Ban Francisco yesterday, from Aui tralla, and the largest part of today's transfer was known definitely to be in course of remittance of this gold to the bank here, which engaged it In Australia. Some of the New York banks had Informa tion, however, from their San Francisco correspondents of Intended shipments from there next week amounting 10 sev eral million dollars. Reports of a 825.000.000 loan In prospect by Paris bankers to fire Insurance com panies opened a new phase of the re sources opened In the Paris money markt to American borrowers, arter tne example of the Pennsylvania 35O.OOO.OO0 bond issue. Confirmation of the reported insurance borrowing was lacking, however. Call money rose again during tne oay. wnn an effect of admonition of the result, to be expected from occasional syndicate requirements. Installments of subscrip tions for Baltimore A Ohio new stocks and for Delaware Hudson convertible bonds, due tomorrow, were the cases In point todar. A good errect was proaurra on sentiment bv the report of wage ad vances toTew England cotton operatives.

Th market a a whole did not show any especially new features and was without news of any great interest. Although packers hav been very heavy hnvm nil the week, thev still appeared to have use for a-ood killers, so that th I. market wa In fair shape o far a the riomanrl wan concerned. Bllll 11 was not the urgent kind of a demand which makes a good, active market. On the contrary, buvera seemed to wsnt certain kinds of cattle and sellers who had the right kind did not And any difficulty In unloading at steady prices. On the other hand, holders of eouailv rood cattle found It very slow work getting steady prices, and In som case tney reportea inai iney were un able to do a well aa yesterday. Th gen eral market, however, wa not very mucn different, pi Ice being vry nearly steady with the decline noted yesterday that Is, Mi-2hc lower than last week. Cows and heifer were in moderate up- plv . only twenty cars being reported tn aiwht There w.i a fair demand and Prac tically everything In the way of desirable kinds of cows and heifers changed hinds In reasonable season at tuny as gooa nrlres as orevalled yesterday. Stockers and feeders continue In light supplv snd moderste demsnd, there being comparatively little change In th market from day to day. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. Oils aad Rosla. NEW YORK.

While th trade waa not especially active gt any t.me, the hog old quit freely and It wa not long until half or more of the receipt had Changed hand. It waa largely a 36 22) margi, aa gainst 84.17S4M yesterday. After the more urgent order had been filled packer seemed Inclined to take advantage of tne large receipts and began acting on the bear Ide. thus making the latter half of th market less active than the mornlnj trade. For a time almost nothing was doing, hut In the end the hogs were all sold, f.e market closing slightly easier. It will be noted from the tsble of re ceipt t the head off thl column that the arrivals this week have been extremely large, more than double what they were last week, and very much larger than year ago. The heavy receipts have glven packere a good opportunity to bear the market and they have not been slow to take advantage of every chance In their favor. It. therefor, speaks very well Tor the strong position occupied by the hog trade that In the face of such heavy re ceipts prices have declined only about 12V4jC as compared with th close of last week. According to Information svallshle from the country, the present large run Is due to the fnrt that farmers have Jjst finished corn planting and ar now able to haul their hog to markt. Th general opinion Is that the big runs will not last very long and hence no on Is looking for any very great or permanent cnange in nog values. On the contrsry. th general opin ion seems to be that receipts will very soon drop off and that the loss In price win soon d recovered. Representative sales: Na. At. h. Pr.

The market wss fully steady with yesterday and everything In sight cnangad nana in a vary snort lime alter tne mar ket opened. Although buyer had report from Chicago to the effect that top lamb were bringing only 84 60 at that point, they paid 14.76 for good western and the same price for good but heavy natives. Ther were no aiieep or yearling In sight, but the fw ewe her sold to good sdvantag. A double deck, tne last of Colonel Price feeding, sold at 85 50. A little bunch or good Colorado touched 84 00, while natives sold as hlgn ss 8826. All these prices looked very high, being right up to Chl csgo; In fsct some of the stuff would nut have brought as much money at Chicago as It did nere. As noted yesterday, th "spring mad ness" which leads sheep men to ship everything t Chlcsgo Is on In dead earnest.
