Financial,

NEW YORK, n. y, April 29.-This was an
other dull day at the Stock Exchange The trans
actions aggregated only 127,70O shares. In the
early trading higher range of prices prevailed in
sympathy with reports from London of firm
market for securities there. The advance was
equal TO 1a@7s per cent in the general list the
latter in Chicago Gas, while Consolidated Gas
moved up from 1913 10 1914, the highest figure
yet attained. There was a fair demand for inter-
national stocks on London account. The reaction
in the price OF refined sugars however, and ad-
vices from Germany that the Reichstag would
probably pass the sugar bounty bill, led to de-
cline in sugar trust stock from 1241s to 1925 and
this weaken the whole market
report that the American Tobacco trust would
be enlolned from paying the scrip dividend re-
Gently declared led a decline in that stock from
I2l4 TO Iu12, but recovery TO :l12 subsequently
took lace. The net losses in the general run OF
stocks were only e TO z per cent and according
the selling had no special significance. Specula-
tion closed about steady in lone despite rumors,
which were partly confirmed at the sub-treasury,
that between 100000 and $1,000, 600 in gold
will be shipped TO Europe on Saturdays steamers.
