Head-Rowand's Resignation.
The stock market yesterday was the most
interesting tor some time, both in point of busi-
ness and the trend of values. Sales were 7l5
shares. furnished by Philadelphia Gas. Switch
and Signal. Central Traction and. Electric.
Orders gave out or were anent the market at
the last call and nothing was done.
Philadelphia Gas opened with sale at ll2s
and weakened gradually until it went at 1925 az
the second call. 1t closed at this figure The
omers from it. Others said it had no signifi-
canoe, and was caused by a few selling orders
coming on the market, which is SO sensitive as
to be easily moved.

at Boston, which sent few buying orders here
in the afternoon, but the advance prevented
them from being filled. Luster was a lrlne

the opening, but the rest of this group were
Complications of the Westinghouse proper
ties were the principal topics discussed by
brokers. 1t was again stated that things were
far from harmonious IN the Switch and Signal
directory, and the advertised sale of LO0O
shares of she stock ION account of whom 1t
may concern" next Monday, was pointed to as
giving color TO the Story DuI as eHortS arc
making to improve the finances and satisfy
creditors, 1t is generally believed rcceivership
will be avoided.
Affairs of the electric company, according to
good authority. will be brought to head
about April !. Opinion is pretty evenly
divided as to the outcome, but some of the best
posted brokers think Dir. Westinghouse will
come out on top.
Mr. Rowand is not in position to explain
the official change in the East End Electric
Light Company on account of sickness, but
close friend of his is authority for the state
ment that MIR. Rowand determined to resign
the Presidency last summer, when he was
prostrated by typhoid fever. At the time OF
the deal with the Williamsburg Electric Light
Company, about three months ago all the de-
tails for his resignation were arranged, and
have since been carried out. Whether he will
resume the Presidency or not will depend upon
his health, but the probability is that his re-
tirement is permanent.

NEW YORK STOCKS.
Bull Speculation in Cereals and a Small
Bank Suspension Operate Against
the Share Market-Movement
in Only Few SfOcISs

in Only Few Stocks.
NEW YORK. March Alt is now be-
coming recognized fact that the
rampant bull speculation in cereals is
acting as a repressing influence upon
the market for securities, though the hope is
INDUCED in that the profits made in those deals
will find their way to Wall street after the cul-
mination of the speculation. The suspension
of small bank here acted as an additional re-
pressing factor in the stuck market this morn
ing, and even the few stocks which have pre-
served all along the semblance of activity sub
sided into the most aggravating dullness.
The prevailing tone of the market was heavy,
as indicated by the slight change in quotations
during the greater portion of the day. Burling-
ton and Ontario and Western were the only
stocks in the list showing any animation or ma
terial fiucruation in the early dealings, hut st.
Paul, Burlington anu Rock Island, which were
in a measure affected by the passage of the
maximum freight bill in Nebraska, afterward
took the lead in point Of activity, while Chi
cago Gas, late in the day, moved up nearly l
per cent on larger transactions. Louisville, st.
Louis and Texas was sold at against 157a
the other day, but afterward recovered
to IA brunswick also advanced from II to "a
on comparatively light trading. These move
ments comprise all there was of the market,
and no interest in the course of prices was ap-
parent anywhere. The closing was dull and
steady, with prices in all but few cases slight
fractions below those of last evening.
Railroad bonds were not so dull as stocks,
but the stagnaton was almost on parity and
while few issues show material changes from
last sales, the majority of the active issues are
unchanged. The sales were only S70O 900. with
out special ACTIVITY in any issue. The changes
of note show a majority of losses. and Hann-

SPRING SUGGESTIONS.


Avoid draughts and sudden changes Of tenn
peratnre
Do not discard your warm winter clothing too
soon. 1t is better to suffer little inconveni-
ence than to take cold.
Remember that one is especially liable to con-
tract a bad cold or chill at this season of the
year.
A cough or cold contracted between the sea-
sons is the most annoying kind, and may last
through the summer.
If you feel cough OF a cold coming on take
drink of pure whiskey at once. 1t Will keep
the blood in circulation and is the best pre-
ventive against the diseases OF the season.
Remember that only pure whiskey should be
taken. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has tine
strongest recommendations from the leading
scientists and medical men, 1t is the only
standard medicinal whiskey. Take no o. her
from your druggist or grocer. W

On the String.

1t Is understood that promising dicker is
going on for the purchase of .the Fort Pitt
Glass Works property in the Seventh ward. A
hitch in regard to the price, it is thought, will
be overcome. The lot Is 2SS on Washington
street. running back 1885, with good factory
buildings. The sale and improvement of this
property wonld be great benefit, not only TO
Washington street. but TO that part of the city,
which needs a stimulant, such as this would
furnish, TO put it in line with the more progress
sive districts.
