NEWS FACTORS FAVORABLE Anaaal Report of Pennsylvania Rail road aad Extra Dividend of , Lake Shore Help Values. NEW YORK, March 1. Favorable Infer ence -tnluht be drawn of the confidence relt ,y holdar of stocks from the scanty offerings to soil In tho market today. It was this lightness of the supply whloh made It esy for the profes.ftonal traders to bid up price without being obliged to accept any great amount of stock. The news bearing on security values did not seem to be considered of sufficient Importance to prompt any large shifting of position Inline maiket on the part of the more substantial Inside Interests. The attitude of waiting was maintained on their part. The absence on winter vacations to many persons accepted as leaders of authority in finance and in market movements Is a feature of the position. The annual report of the Penn sylvania railroad was studied with the uual interest. The profitable results of the year's buslnees had an important In fluence in sustaining confidence and in the firm undertone of the day s market. Not only past results recorded, bt.t the plan outlined for prodlgous further out lays for additions and improvement contri buted to this effect. The Increasing number of bond issue sold to banker Is furtheir-teetlmony to the unlmpared determination of the great rail road corporations to proceed with the work of building up their systems. While encouragement is felt at. this evidence of progress in necessary financing, it does not escape comment that the rate of re turn on theete bond Issue and the price at which they a.e placed argues the com pulsion borrowers are under to offer more than usually attractive trms In order to enlist, new capital. The extra dividend disbursement by the Lake Shore was taken to show the desire of the parent New York. Central to enlist as large resources as. possible from it subsidiary companies for carrying on Its expensive Improvement work. On tho other hand the reduced dividend of the Chicago, Rock Island Rail way 1 company dampened the hope of the stockholders of 'he Reck Island holding company for sharing in distributed profits. Report 'of January net earnings of rail roads, showed some striking discrepancies in the net return, which might be due to difference of weather conditions In their power, to hamper oporatUma Assertion of damage to the winter wheat crop came to hand, but- were received with reserve and wihV allowance for the prevalence of such reports at this season of the year. The -financial district keep an anxious eye, also, on the labor situ ation. Rumers circulated late In th day that a settlement of the Philadelphia car strike was In sight. The money market was undisturbed by the March require ments. Bonds were Irregular. Total sale par value, $2,871,000. United State bond were unchanged on call.

Buyer were all out in the yard In pretty good season and as a re sult seller were quoting the market as' a little better than yesterday. In soma case those who bad eattl that Jut happened to suit buyers thought they got a much a 10c higher l thaitT yesterday. On the other hand oommon to medium grade were slow and little.
