NEW YORK. March 15.-There were signs of
liquidation of small bull pools in the stock market
to-day and it was evident that the "short" inter
ests were imbued with the idea that the coadi-
lions were favorable for a downward movement.
The speculation was less active than for some
days past. The prospective passage of the
seigniorage Dill (the vote was not announced un-
til about the close of the market) had rather de-
pressing effect ON the speculation by reason OF
the fact that the bears expected dire results II IL
should become law. suggesting that heavy gold
shipments would follow and that American secur-
flies would depreciate in value on the London
Exchange. The Union Pacific statement for jan
uary which showed heavy decrease In net
earnings also tended TO help the short side of
the market. But with all there were periods OF
strength and in the late dealings there were evil
dences of q desfre to buy back many of the stocks
sold early IN the day. Within the last quarter OF
