Market, Financial arid Industrial N.ews of the Day
Financial
Chicago Tribune-Oimilia Br Leased Wire.
.- New York, March' .1(5. The ab
sence of developments and'newS'of
a character to sustain an advancing
movement of stocks was emphasized
in today's dealings. After a fairty
sharp bulge among the more active
speculative issues in the first hour,
the market became listless and . it
seemed as though bearish traders
took advantage of the consequent
uncertain price tendency to offer the
industrial issues down. Once the
reactionary., tone became evident,
profit-taking : sales were" hastened
and at the. close the majority of
prominent petroleum, steel and rail
road shares were lower than the day
before.
At th: aame time the demand for many
Issues In the Investment clam was suffi
ciently In excess of offerings to show
irons spots. The 'most complete charac
terisation of the market at the end of the
day was to call H Irregular and hesitant.
Mining; shares save a, food account, of
themselves at times.
Trailers had very little basis In financial
and Industrial events for their market ac
tivity. The collapse of the revolution In
Germany was of no -moment, Inasmuch as
Jinn day's Judgment had called fnr pri
marily domestic' intareat in the- effort to
unseat the government. . This being the
case, new that, lr. von Repp's forces
were seeking? a compromise with the Ebert
governmental organization was received
merely aa confirmation of the earlier be
lief that the Qefinan people would not be
stirred to strenuous undertakings.
No Bullish Sentiment.
There was no bullish sentiment In the
Interpretation of occurrences In Germany
aa far as securities were concerned. The
fuHsjan uxuhana-e may have been Influ
enced 1o a degree, especially mark rates.
Krom 1.23 cents-each, marks moved for
ward lo 1.37, a point higher than they
were when the Initial reports of the German
uprlsln.f came. Sterling gained 64 cents
to the pound, the final rate being 3. 7 2 i
far sight drafts. The foreign quotation
rose 23 roints, the Italian 26 points and
the rato on Belgium 22 points.
A survey of these sizeable gains ap
parently indicated ' besides a moderate
stimulant from the German newa, the
market still Inclined to speculate ex
tensively. The Influence of talk of com
ing gold Imports from Kngland remains
as a factor In dealings In exchange.
Bunkers are not yet able to examine
all the foroes at work. in the exchanges,
but the. approach of .sterling toward the
$V level' has had ' clear ' application to the
gold market in London. Today's price
of 111 shillings,' 6 pence was about- 16
shillings lower than the maximum quo
tation of Friday and within 4 shillings
of the jear's minimum.
Silver Sells at 87. .
Silver 'eld today iiit 67 pence per
ounce in' London, a decline of pence
frpra the, preceding day-e Quotation. From
the. year's maximum.--price today's quo
tation showed a reaction of more than
tl pence per ounce. Little has been said
iu foreign dispatches of late about India's
purchases of the white metal and In our
own market the Far East has not been
a large buyer for -acme time.
t'nll money lent at 9 per cent for re
newals, afterward . getting down to 7
ler-e'tnfr There wtur.no easement of time
money. however and a heavy movement
of gold to South America precludes any
material easlnr of credit- costs under
piesent conditions. It Is expected that
tomorrow's steamer will take close to
$10,000,000 of the metal to the Argentine.

Cattle Receipts of cattle were agalm
larg.t today with an estimate calling for
8,400 head as compared with the official
figure yesterday of 10.400 head. Total
for the two days la 18,600 head or 3.000
larg'r than receipts a week ago and also
a vear ago. Because of the heavier re
ceipts prices ruled around a quarter lower
with sellers slow to let go of their hold
ings at the decline. All grades of she
stock, also moved slower at prices that
were around 26c lower than Monday. Most
of the stockers end feeders sold around
steady prices, some of the undesirable
kinds were a little lower.
