BY ]. r. l.. Darlington & co.
New York, March 20.-The market
opened with a "whoop' and a bang
this morning. sugar gar being up Poin1is,
generally at an advance varying from
fractions to several points. The high
prices brought in quite heavy realization
during the first two hours and there was
some setback throughout the whole mar
ket, but buying of very persistent char
acter in Brooklyn Rapid Transit, sugar,
Manhattan, Union Pacific, Northern Pa,
citc and some of the specialtieS held
prices at high figures and nmost cases
scored advance above opening prices. To-
bacco was weakened by the sharp decline
was considerable realizing by traders
and the absence of inside support the
stock selling down 10 per cent. with a
quick recovery on the execution of stop
orders. The whole market showed evil
dences of great strength and begins TO
look as If the upward movement migho
be under way again. At same time, to-
days advance was very sharp and there
seems no question but what the list
should react some what before continuing
very much higher Generally speaking
the sentiment continues bullish and the
leading houses are looking for higher
prices this week. There seems to be very
little question but that Sugar will sell
very much higher although the luctua-
tionS in 1t are so violent as to make
trading somewhat of an omen DropOsition
Market during last hour showed the ef-
feet of the tremendously heavy dealings
during the balance of the day and be-
came somewhat dull although retaining
its strength.
Sugar broke sharply below Saturdays
closing, prices weakening the whole list
traCtionally but aside from this there
was no movement of any magnitude. we
believe the market Is a purchase on all
weak spots and we have repeatedly said,
think there is no better purchase than
Union Pacific stocks on all declines. The
fNfaVNN
prices before the end of this year, and If
taken now and held irrespective of the
momentary fluctuations will show a large
profit. Money leaned as high as per
cent. Market closed irregular but strong.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, March 20.--The stock mar
ket after a sensational movement in
Sugar and the local transportation
shares closes weak with mixed net
changes Interest centered largely in
Sugar, in which the transactions were
over 191 900 Of total Of about 100000
shares. Sugar opened with an ad-
vance of about S points, ran off 3K and
then touched 1S2 with n subsequent
plunge of Is points, closing with a net
loss of about s points. The extraordi-
nary movement OF this stock had 10
wide Influence in other directions.
Brooklyn Transit was lifted over Q
points and then lost much Of the gain.
Pronounced strength appeared in the
Nanderbilts, Union Pacific, Northwest
ern, the coalers and Chicago Terminal
preferred, while some of the Interna-
tionals made show of strength in the
early dealings in sympathy with the
higher range in London. The Tobacco
stocks were extremely feverish, Amerl-
can Tobacco broke 61s, rallied 9 and left
off with a loss of 2; Continental To-
bacco slumped 1i24 and was off points
at the close. The liquidation in these
stocks was attributable to the reported
formation of a new opposition tobacco
company. Manhattan retained the
greater part Of a four point rise. There
was a disposition of the professional
element to let commission house pur-
chasers have stocks and subsequently
while Sugar was tumbling and call
money reached 9 per cent, prices were
freely offered down. Standard stocks,
while easing with the drift Of the mar
ket, receded in an orderly manner and
the reaction in those securities from
the best did not exceed two per cent.
