Aew York, April 13. Stocks re
corded considerable strength among
special issues today with an uncer
tain and heavy tone among the ma
jority of standard shares. News of
a much larger outflow of gold to
South America than had been ex
pected acted to arouse a conserva
tive attitude among stock market
traders toward the monev market.
and an advance of the call loan rattt
trom 7 to 12 per cent m the after
noon probably had much to do with
the orice movement. Annroximatlv
$20,000,000 is scheduled to go out
on today's steamer. Last Saturrlav
$5,000,000 was exported to the Ar
gentine, these transfers bringing the
aggregate of the year to a point near
$100,000,000.
As an offset to this stands the $51,
000,000 brought in from London, to
gether with a total between $10 000-
OOOand $11,000,000, Which came in
from Canada some time ago. In ad
dition to the effect of the export of
gold, money rates were influenced
today by extensive withdrawals of
government deposits.
Sugar Stocks Active.
Th primary speculative movement In
stocks, as tor several days past, was in
the sugar group. ,8om of the petroleum
stocks gained ground, breaking out of the
lethargy which had affected them for
several week. It Is probable that th oil
shares, like the rails, have been put under
pressure lately by reason of discussions of
poiiuiiia capital notations, as well as
th substantial sale of new lun.l .hi.h
occurred.

rle of franc signalling Itself at the
European centers at the passing of strained
relations of Kngland and France over the

Presumably, a sentimental reflex of Anglo-French
diplomatic developments was
seen in the course of lire, although a more
popular explanation was importers of goods
