: New York, March 11.-Quotations on
the stock exchange left off fractionally
above yesterdays close and near the
highest. Trading at the outset was OF
a hesitating character, showing a dis
position to follow any move in the
specialties. This was indicated by a
rise in Sugar, the Improvement in this
stock canceling the earlier decline.

was subsequently taken by the dealers
