New York March 15.--lt was rather a dull
day at the stock Exchange. At the opening,
the market was weakened by lower cables
from London for American securities. The
foreigners sold about as much as they bought
only because they feared that the Bland
seIgniorage bill would pass the Senate. At
least this was the reason assigned by some of
the foreign houses here. When the arDltrage
houses ceased selling. the market drifted into
dullneSs, Later on there was some good buy
ing OF Chicago Gas, sugar, Missouri
Pacific ana Whisky. and a rise Of
}4Ulls per cent enSued- another duIl
spell followed this rise, and 10 al
operators began to discuss the chances of the
Bland bill E-~U,Ving the President sigma
ture. MOsa people on the street believe that
the President Will veto IT, A small cOntin-
gent however claims that the measure will
be allowed to become a law and were selling
stocks on the theory that IN this event II
would start further European lIquida ions.
Still they made very little progress IN their eff
forts TO depress the list. and after the vote by
the senate hal been announced, the market
first ran off and then rallied, closing
