THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, March l6.--The sensational
rise in sugar today was largely respon-
sible for the elimination of much of
the short interest in the rest of the list,
material gains appearing, notably
among the specialties while the rail-
ways at the high points averaged Ia
cents up, but there were no recessions
from the best and the market closed
under pressure. 1t was a wild day on
the exchange, sugar figuring from over
"a cent of a million shares with the
aggregate trade reaching nearly a mill
lion shares. The market was moving
cautiously upward when sugar burst
into prominence and touched 40, a
rise to 29A points over last night, IL
points above the September boom prices
of '97. The stock closed at 159's. The
fluctuations were erratic. an instance
in point being the drop of 10 points on
two transactions from the high point.
A trader sold 300 of the 800 shares trad
ed at 40 and within a moment covered
AZ 100. the only intermediate transac-
tion being 100 shares at leo. Thus the
broker realized $1,000 on his short sale.
There was various rumors connected
with the movement in sugar, among
them the report that the trade war had
been settled, that an agreement had
been reached with the Glocose Refining
company and the Doscher and ArbuCkle
interests. People in the trade gener-
ally discreditad the rumors, protesting
ignorance of any deal upon which they
would be likely posted were it in exist
ence. Local interests identified with
the concerns mentioned likewise dis
