NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS IrregTilarity Kaxki the Moyement of Prices of Securities. NEWS IS GENERALLY BULLISH Close la Utrons;, With Valaes at ae Highest Level of the Day-' Railroad Bonds Ir regalar. NEW YORK, March 23. Irregularity marked the movement of price In the stock market today. Business was n mod erate volume and haa been the case for some time past, almost wholly professional. There la still a dearth of public Interest, not only in stocks, but In bonds as welt Sentiment was bullish In the main, though developments were not all of the sort to make for increaaed confidence. The day's budget of news included fore casts of President Roosevelt's forthcoming special message to congreas, concerning which there was much diversity of opinion; the first publlo report of the American Sugar Refining company, showing unex pectedly large caah assets and rash sur plus; advices from the leading railway cen ters, which bespoke a more cheerful view of general conditions despite fears of a coal strike; a reported decrease In the num ber of idle freight cars, and a good crop outlook. Dlnpatchea from New England mill towns telling of further wage reduc tion served to call renewed attention to the labor situation. Rumors of a strike on the Reading system depressed the coal ers during the early session, the rest of the railway list falling In sympathy, but general recoveries were later registered. Locally the day was devoid of Important Incidents, apart from the definite an nouncement that two erstwhile financial Institutions the Oriental bank and the Knickerbocker Trust company were about to emerge from their difficulties. The early movement of prices was more favor able to the Industrial group than to the rallera. Excepting the excellent statement of the sugar company, which advanced that stock smartly, there waa little to ac count for the strength of Industrial sharea, though the belief la gaining ground that conditions In steel and iron and the metal trade generally are beginning to take on a more hopeful aspect. In the final hour the market developed increased activity and atrength under the lead of the Harrl man and Hill Issues and the steel and copper sharea, the movementa embracing the . entire active list and aome of the specialties. Among the Impelling causes were the decision of the United Slates su preme court, which overturn the Minne sota freight and passenger law, declaring the penalties Imposed excessive, and the introduction of amendments to the Sher man antl-tmat law. The closing was strong, at about the high level of the day. Foreign markets exercised little or no ln7 fluence here, though Americans rallied In London, where business was restricted by reason of the approaching settlement. No Important railway earnings were reported today, but those of some minor roads were In line with recent returns, virtually all showing a marked falling off In gross. The money market waa without note worthy Incidents, the rates for call and time loans being practically unchanged, with little demand. The payment to Wash ington of a final Instalment of about $14, 000,000 of government moneys was accom plished without disturbance. The greater part of this sum waa disbursed by local banks for their Interior correspondents. Money Is accumulating here In unwonted volume and the secretary of the treasury, according to trustworthy reports, is likely to make further withdrawals on or before April 1. In the bond market, United State regis tered fours declined U per cent on call. Railroads were irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,400,000.

No great change was noted In today's cattle trade, but' the market aa whole, wa In very satisfactory condition. The market cn beef steers opened In good season In the morning and buyers started out bidding in some caaes, at least, higher prices for such stuff that just happened to cult their needs. It looked at first as If a good advance would be made, but buyers' enthusiasm did not last very long and the trade settled down to about a steady mar ket a compared with last week. Some ale weie poeslblr better than Friday' lowest point, but nie market was certainly no higher than Thursday. - The demand was sufficiently active to effect a clearance of everything in sight by 10 o'clock in Uie morning. . Good cow sold freely at last week's dol ing prices, but there waa more or less com plaint about, the medium to Inferior grades, which were pretty generally a little lower than last week or at least no better than Friday's low point. Cows did not move off quite so freely aa did steers and it was a little later before a clearance waa effected, but still the most of them sold la very good season In the forenoon. There waa considerable inquiry for stock era and feeders and they sold fully steady and in some cases higher than laat week, everything desirable changing hand at an early hour. quotation on cattle: Good to choice corn-fed iteera, 25.906.40; fair to good corn-fed steers, 25.606.90; common to fair corn-fed steers, l4.6iKy6.5o; good to choice cows and heifers, 4.7&ft6.40: fair to good cows and heifers, 23.9ua4.76; common to fair cowa and heifers, 22.262.90; good to choice atockera and feedera, 4.6om5.(jO, fair to good stockers and feeders, 3.85ig4.60; common to fair Btocker and feeders, 23.00 &3.86.
