Proposed Expectation of Gold Did Not

Proposed Expectation OF Gold Did Not
Make Securities Weak.
NEW YORK, March tG.-Despite the en-
gagemen Of 81, 25O, 900 in gold for shipment
to England tomorrow and the great proba-
bility Of the signing Of the selgniorage bill
by the president. the stock market was
strong and a higher range Of prices was es-
tablished throughout the entire active list
and in all but a few OF the specialties traded
in. The seigniorage measure was the subject
OF much conjecture and the financial COM
munity OF the city seems to be a unit against
1t, but the gold exports were not a factor OF
the speculative situation at all and the great
est advance was made just after the projected
shipments were reported. There was at no
time a very great pressure to sell. At the
opening prices were mostly a fraction higher
than the closing figures Of yesterday.
Cordage was notably strong on a report
that the United States Cordage company had
entered into an agreement with the National
Cordage company by which the interests OF
the latter were materially benefited. This
apparently well founded statement induced
purchases Of the shares of the National COM
pany, causing them to rapidly advance. In
the carly dealings the general list advanced
Is to q per cent. A slight reaction was soon
made, but the speculation recovered its tone
and an upward movement began, which con-
tinued in force up to midday, an improve
ment being recorded Of 4 to "a per cent,
After noon the trading became very slug
gisb and some few shares declined n small
fraction, but the market was generally held
firmly until about 1880 o'clock, when a small
raid was. made on Chicago Gas, which re-
suited in a decline of small fractions. The
downward tendency of prices was of brief
duration and during the last hour specula-
ton, although dull, was very strong. The
market closed firm at or near the highest
price touched.
The bond market was generally firm
throughout the day.
The Post says: As a result of the weeks
continued high level of foreign exchange
rates, 81 25O,00 in gold was ordered today
for shipment by tomorrow's European
steamer. Rather to the surprise of Wall
street this consignment will be made to
London. This is the first shipment TO
England on exchange since June of 1893.
1t will be to all intents and purposes a
regular commercial operation in exchange.
1t is true that in the recent dull sterling
market it had been hard for bankers to
find a market for drafts broad enough to
admit gold shipments at a profit. The
margin at best was close and the chances
of a reaction in rates, in case the sales
were pressed. have been considerable. 1t
is hardly probable that the passage of the
seigniorage bill had immediate influence on
today's gold order. Tomorrow's gold is
supplied, moreover. without recourse to the
federal treasury, which is reassuring.
The following are the closing quotations on
the leading stocks of the New York exchange
today:

WALL STREET COR A WEEK.
Stocks and Prices Considerably Affected b.
the Bland Bill.

Stocks and Prices Considerably Affected by
tho Bland Bill.
NEW YORK, March 16.-Bradstreet's re-
view of the New York stock markets says:
The expected passage of the Bland s~eignior-
age bill has been a leading factor in con-
nection with the stock markets this week.
The adoption of the bill by the senate was
fully anticipated, its effect being shown
mainly by the renewed tone of hesitation
and the marked falling off in public in
terest. The market throughout was much
quieter than that of last week, although
prices have not receded very materially, the
underlying tone Of strength being asserted
in the fact Of a renewal of bearish efforts to
create a depression, and, in some Instances,
particularly among the low priced railroad
shares, a disposition TO advance has been
noticed. The strength of exchange created
the usual anticipations Of gold shipment, but
the demand for the bill seems to be proper
tionately as light as the supply of COM
mercial drawings, and another week passed
without the announcement of any
gold engagements until Friday, when
Sl.25O, 900 were taken. In the
early part OF the week London purchased
small amounts OF stock, apparently to cover
shorts, but has shown little other interest
In this market. One of the chief reasons
for the hesitation which the market exhib-
It's is the fear that the adoption of such
a concession to silver sentiment as the Bland
bill will be unfavorably received abroad, and
may, in the sensitive condition OF the foreign
market, create an actively adverse sentiment
there in regard to our financial position.
