Mainly Professional.

Dealings ON the Exchange Today
Mainly Professional.
New York. April 21.-The stock market
was comparatively dull at the opening
and prices were irregular. The dealings
were highly professional, and partly sue
cessful- effort was made at the start to
depress prices. There was no selling pres
sure. however. and some quick recoveries
followed the early losses. Tennessee Coal
and Iron declined with some rapidity 2 1-S
per cent, but later made an abrupt recov-
cry Of nearly the entire decline. Airbrake
opened per cent above yesterdays closing
price and rose per cent higher. Metro
politan Street Railway declined over a
point. Consolidated Gas opened up point
and advanced per cent further.
There was no uniformity in the fluctua-
tions, and prices varied a good deal. Gov
ernment bonds were unchanged.

There were excellent advices TO buy both
Brooklyn and Manhattan this morning, but
neither of these stocks responded TO the
intimations of good advance in the morn
ing hours. Brooklyn opened at 1872 and
within few minutes sagged off below 131.
Manhattan hung around 124. 1t seems
probable that both will advance two or
three points. however. before the close to-
morrow. if for no other than technical
market reasons. II one is buying the

as one of the most certain TO attain to
much higher prices.

Southern Railway was one of the stocks
which held its own well during the early
trading, but did not advance. The talk
that strong clique intends TO advance the

II is said that the road is earning at least
per cent and that at least per cent will
be paid on the preferred stock. Louisville

The early trading was well-nigh feature
less. Federal Steel, common. was active
and advanced nearly point. but seemed
not inclined to get higher for the time
being at least. The preferred advanced
fractionally. This fact. with the general
belief that these securities would be taken
up before the end of the week, led many
people to believe that they would be among
the best stocks today and tomorrow. Meth
er has been in the least active this week
so far and neither has advanced since the
break two weeks ago as far as the other
specialties that had been fayorites. And
at the same time ii is believed by people
who know the Federal Steel Companys
prospects as well as any, that there is
more foundation in real merit in these
stocks than in the large majority of the

The stock market this morning was in
consequent and promising Of nothing in
particular, good or bad. Prices opened
near the close last night, shade off in
some cases, and for the first hour the
changes were fractional only, and not very
large fractions at that. Perhaps il may be
said with truth, however, that there as an
undertoIe of strength in the market, due
apparently to the unwillingness of the
large holders of stocks to let prices go of
further. There were few, if any, buyers
outside of the professionals. however and
this was disappointment to those who be-
lieved from the close last night that the
day would be a distinct improvement.
What the later trading Of the day would
develop few cared to hazard a prophecy

opinion was hopeful.
