New York, March 27.-The Anthracite
Coal situation dominated the stock mar
ket to-day and the undertone was weaker
than for some time past. There were ru-
mors in plenty of fresh trouble in the
trade and Ii was quite generally agreed
that the presidents will not be able to
take definite acton at the meeting to-
morrow. In addition to this there were
further real,zat:ons in the Changers, Cen
eral Electric, Louisville and Nashville.

ferred. Chicago Gas, Northern Pacific pre-
ferred. St Paul, and Omaha and Union

pecially affected by its February state
ment which was not up to expectations.

rose to 129 and broke to 1264@l27. Susque-
hanna and Western preferred advanced to
IL to 361h and fell to 34kd35. RUmors
were rife to the effect that the Lacka-
wanna had or would acquire, control OF
the Susduehanna and Western but the
stories were disposed of by explicit State
ments from Lackawanna officials that the
company will not go out Of its own proper
territory In the industr!als General Elec-
trio was especially weak and in the last
hour led the decline, falling ia to AfS.
Realizations and the further denial of the
recent report that the company and the
Westinghouse concern had arrived at an
agreement account for comparative heavi-
ness of the stock. Sugar was rather quiet,
ranging between 100 and 1904. The dissolu-
ton of the Relchstag would benefit the
stock so the bulls say. London opera tons
were again on a small scale. except n

by the foreigners. In the last hour the
