Tho stock mar ket pursued an uncertain course today and closed, with the' level of quotations little changed. Traders shifted their posi tion frequently and speculative sentiment was confused. Outside business wus small and market movements reflected little more than professional operations. London sold Amalgamated, Stool. Canadian Pacific and Unloii Pacific hero early In the day, putting out perhaps 13,. 000 shares. This selling, together with the lower quotations cabled from abroad, caused torn Irregularity at the opening It was apparent, however, that liquida tion of various stocks, such as upset tne market last week, had been suspended, a fact which encouraged spoculatlvo buy ing. St. Paul and Baltimore & Ohio, re cent weak features, made good gains at the outset. New Haven was advanced temporarily to a level, nearly two points higher. The whole market advanced briskly ui. tll weakness developed In the coalers. Lehigh Valley and Reading In particular were subjected to preesur. and undr their lead the general list fell to below Saturday's close. In tho late session tnu market hardened. The Improvement In the tone of tno market, by comparison with tho unat Uement of last week, was influenced by the bullish statistical returns of tho daT The copper producers' statement, show ing a decrease In stocks of noarly 9,000,0'a pounds, was considerably stronger than had been Iolced for. Domestic deltvono In February made only a slight Improve ment, but exports continued heavy. A gain In commercial activity was Indi cated by tho fortnightly freight car re port showing a sharp contraction In sur plus equipment Some ot tho weak features ot tho mar ket recently made further losses.

At the same time it was a little larger than a year ago. With advices from other market points Indicating a decline on beef s,tcers tho trade here opened slow, buyers naturally being d little cautious until they know a little more ' about conditions at other markets. In the ond beef steers sold largely around 10c lower. This meani that tho best cattlo sold at sternly prices, as high as 19.10 Ming top for the host here, this being tho top price for tho year to date. On tho other hand, tho general run of fair to pretty decent cattlo were around 10a lower, nnd In soma ' casta stock, that did not happen to rind favor In buyers' eyes was perhaps a little lower even than that. Cows and heifers were anything fruui steady to as much as 10a lower. Htockej-s and feeders were In good du mand and they sold at steady prices.

The Improvement was due to the moderate receipts, which footed up In tho neighborhood ot 13.006 head, against 14,149 last Monday and 21,084 on the corresponding day a year ago. The general quality of the offerings wus about the average, with few, If any, strictly choice grades of the right weigh? of either sheep or lambs ou sale. Cons fluently the range ot prices did not reach as high a point as at the close ot last week. Most of the lamb sales were Include 1 within a range ot 17.207.65, the latter figure having been paid for two loads ot fed Mexicans and being top for tint day. A spread ot t5.10ff5.65 took tha bulk of tho ewes. A small lot ot yes.-, lings sold up to 18.70. The receipts Included a larger percent ago ot lambs suitable for feeding purposie than ot late, the trade In such kinds be ing, active at prices fully steady with last week.

Advices from other points were of an encouraging nature, and with a light local supply, the traue opened in fair shape, shippers and speculators buying a number of hogs early that were fully 60 and in some rases MilOo higher. Packers started out bidding prices that were no more than a shade higher, but nothing sold on this basis, and In a short time values strength ened up, so that when the bulk of the offerings moved the market was gener ally a big nickel higher. In other words, quite a number ot the best quality hogs were 6il0c and In some Instanres a flat 10c higher, while everything was fully a nickel up.

CHICAO6, March 9.-AVheat for MaV delivery hardened In prlco today on a count of diminished farm reserve, but the Jlily option proved relatively weak owing to Ideat conditions for tha new crop. Tho close was steady at the same as Saturday to Hfl4e higher. In com, the outcome varied from 6H decline to to advance. Oats showed a net loss ot He to "HiTHo and provisions a setback of 80 to 16c. Not even the brilliant crop prospects were sufficient to Induce aggressive sell ing fn May wheat In tho face of tho government's bullish report on reserves. The case was different, however. In re gard to the new crop month. Advancing Prices for the more distant delivery brought out through commission houses heavy orders on the bear side. The re sult nas that July, although unchanged at the finish, nvernked lower than during the session Hint procdfdi A small flurry took place nbout mid day In consequence of May shorts In wheat attempting to 'cover. Trfey had been moved by a good) slied falling oft In the visible supply. The absence of export demnnd, though, and tho fine weather soon acted art h check on the bulls. In coin, notwithstanding that reservi were shown to le the smallest since 1904. much selling was Indulged In by both longs and shorts. Increasing stocks hern and tho slowness ot shipping -demand were held responsible. A sharp break In oats came as the Inevitable result of the Washington showing of unexpectedly large stocks on farms. The rush to un load carried down prices a cent a bushel before profit taking by shorts led to some reaction. Provisions developed weakness after .1 firm stnrt. Scarcity of hog arrivals was Ignored when tho prlco of feed began to tumble. Artlclel Open. 1 Hlgh-I Low. Closc. Bat y Wheat I May. 93 MVi 9J 93 July 87ti 87 87141 87S4 Com.
