BY Darlington & Cusack.
New York, April 1.-THE market after
"a fairly steady opening developed great
weakness and at one time in the day, was
absolutely panicky, in its declines. The
drop extending l5 per cent. In some cases.
There was tremendous liquidation by the
smaller commission houses throughout
the whole list and even the standard
stocks reflected the execution of market
orders without any regard to prices. The
banks who have been responsible for the
decline, absolutely refused accommodation
on the Industrial shares and in conse-
quence, houses without the best facilities
found themselves without the means OF
meeting their obligation.
The only wonder is that failures in the
street have not been much larger than
they are. While the market should rally
and at the close has shown some eN-
dences of doing so, yet before any sus-
tanned upward movement is begun, VIII
we think, sell lower again. The advance
as 1t comes will undoubtedly be taken
advantage of by many holders to liqui-
date and the conservative houses are
discouraging buying except in the first
class issues only. Such stocks as Bur
lington. st. Paul, Rock Island. New York
Central can be safely pure hased on all
the very weak spots, but the IndustrialS
should be discriminating against except
on large margins.
The rally which was in progress toward
the close was almost entirely due to COW
ering of short contracts, although some
of the houses professed to believe that
the insiders were buyers at the extreme
low prices. We do not blieve ourselves
that any great amount of long stock has
been taken on. Money promises to remain
a factor for some little time to come, and
as the banks as well as the commission
houses have been thoroughly scared by
today's break 1t will be extremely diff
cult to create renewed interest in the
market The close was strong. Total L.

New York, April 7.-Today's sensa-
tional stock market was remarkable
for great declines that took place IN
practically all the specialties. Losses
of Importance remained at the end or
the day, although the closing was
strong. The potential influence be-
hind todays plunge in prices was the
money market, where discrimination
was exercised against the industrial
securities. The inability of some large
firms to renew loans on those shares
as collateral made it necessary to sa2-
rifice stocks at the best prices obtain
able. Call rates for money ranged
from five to fifteen per cent, but left
off at the lower figure. The forced
sales by many commission houses lent
renewed courage to the bears, who
constantly found new spots of weak
ness. A number of money lenders on
the floor of the exchange in exchange
refused to pay any attention to the
bids of some brokers who were known
to be trading heavily in the indus
trials. The calling in of some loans
also helped to arouse alarm and in
duced general selling. The weakness
of many standard stocks and bonds
able except the selling of them by
weak holders to protect securities of
less certain value or to secure funds
to buy the shares which had been most
depressed in hope of profit on the re-
bound. LONDON, which of late has
been an unimportant factor in the
dealings. bought upwards of $1,000
shares on the decline here. While he
so-called bull leaders appeared
apathetic on the downward rush of
quotations, heavy scale buying appear
ed, carrying with it the conviction that
the buyers did not believe the violence
OF the bear movement could last. This
support gradually checked the fierce
onslaught on prices and recoveries en-
sued. Much thought was given to the
probable aspect of tomorrow's bank
statement In the rally was found in
the offering of several million dollars
in the loan crowd by an interest lately
very prominent among the bull lead
ers.
The Rally.
When prices were not far from the
lowest, number of commission
houses freely advised purchases where
tne Duyer COuld take the securities
outright or on very substantial mar
gins. Buying of this character had
much to do with checking the rush
to sell. Many interests which had
been out of the street for a long time
thought the time opportune to Te.
purchase, as it appeared to be one
of the bargain days which have de-
veloped at various times of recent
yeay. This buying gave a consider
abe momentum to the afternoon rally,
' which embraced everything on the list
and resulting in reducing the net losses
to very small proportions in some
cases and in establishing slight ad-
Nances in others. An idea of the wide
movements which occurred is given by
the fact that although the BROOKLYN
Transit broke 15a4, the net loss on the
day was only 5&. Metropolitan lost
16 and gained 12%. Sugar sagged 1874
but only showed 21a net loss on the
close. Air brake dropped Is, but ral-
lied 1879. American Tobacco eased off
10 points, but figured for only points
