20 shall call his name En- imam 'u-el, which

Dealings Show Improvement but the Profess

Associated Press Special Wire.
NEW YORK, March 24.-Although the
dealings in stocks today showed improve
ment over yesterdays record, manipula-
ton was no less potent an influence, and
the trading reflected indecision on the part
of the professionals. Although sugar over
shadowed any individual stock in point OF
activity, the railroads attracted more at
tention than the industrials as group.
London prices came lower for Americans,
and the foreign dealers sold securities and
chiefly ST. Paul and Louisville and Nash
Vile in this market. This fact. and an adj
vance in foreign exchange rates, had a
astu''ins Tss srenrS nusnsf ef esssause spSn p9s
the face of comparatively mod
crate demand, caused unfavorable. sig
nif1cance to attach to the continued for
eign selling which it was feared might
cause a rise in rates to the gold export
point. In addition, stress was laid by the
professionals upon the somewhat unsatis-
factory condition of railroad rates in the
west and northwest and upon the old topic
of the light movement of corn. The con-
flicting reports in relation to the crop
prospects usually incidental at this time of
the year are beginning to be noted. Other
unfavorable factors are the prolonged un-
certainty of European politics and the in
flammatory tenor of the discussion in rela-
tion to the Cuban question at Washington.
Liquidation was apparent in number of
stocks, and the traders were on the
alert for weak spots. Besides being
the leader in inactivity, sugar displayed
the greatest weakness, offering little re
sistance to an attack based on reports of
unfavorable trade conditions. At the low
level shorts were liberal purchasers in the
afternoon dealings and under the leader
ship of Sugar and Chicago Gas, the entire
list improved. The first mentioned rose to
1l5 and the latter advanced to "a per
cent, reacting fractionally at the close.
The improvements in the railway list were
within a range of | per cent. Speculation
