RESTORED CONFIDENCE MAKES
THE MARKET LIVELY
The Main Factor Is the Removal Of
All Fears of Railroad
Rate War

NEW YORK, March 9o--There was no.
table recovery Of confidence and resump-
tion of marked strength on the stock ex-
change today. The improvement of prices
started In London and was reflected here
at the opening. continuing all day. The
main factor in the market was the subsid-
ence of the fright over the possibility OF
rate war which came in with the announce
ment of the dissolution OF the western traf-
fic associations. Authoritative announce
ments that the scheduled rates of those
roads would be strictly enforced had
soothing effect on the nerves of security
holders It is better underst TODD in Wall
street where the dissolution Of the western
associations was at first regarded as pre-
cipitate, that the members of those or
ganizations were is some sort parties TO
the Tran smissouri suit, so that the decree
of the court may make them liable If they
continue as members of a similar organiza-
ton. The Introduction of bill In the
senate to authorize railroad pooling sub
ject to the approval of the interstate COM
merce commission, also adds to the
strength OF the market The dealers in
stocks, apparently feeling confidence in
the possibility OF the speedy passage of the
BILL the Improvement extended pretty gen.
orally Throughout the list. being especially
marked IN the grangers and the western
roads. The bear element chose as re-
source against this upward tendency an
attack on New Jersey Central. The stock
receded SIS 10 SO and rallied a point. The
bears systematically worked on the ap-
prehensions of holders of all classes of Sc
cprities as to the far reaching effects of
the supreme courts decision, arguing that
the plan of operation OF nearly every cor
poration whose securities are dealt in
would come within the scope of the decree.
Tobacco lost IL, but recovery left II un-
changed on the day. Other industrials
huctuated irregularly. The closing was
strong and generally at the lowest prices
of the day The bond market responded
readily TO the better feeling evident in the
security market and the general market
were registered In the more prominent
lines. The sales were 81 ,339. 900. Govern
ments were dull but the market displayed

slightly on purchases of $4,000.
