DEMAND FROM WALL STREET

DEMAND FROM WALL STREET

New York, March 9.-The result of to-
days trading was irregular net changes,
some of the specialties showing advances
while most of the standard shares were
fractionally lower.
The activity in the initial and final trad
ing was dullness although large part of
the day was a counterpart of the dealings
of yesterdy and the day before except that
today's trading was weak In the final deal
ings, whereas, on those other days the
closing activity was marked by strength
by the speciaities and the general market
improved considerable In the early dealings
in sympathy with the coalers, which were
strong on continued talk of the proposed
deal, but subsequently worked lower.
The Flower stocks were worked up from
time to time with Peoples Gas and Brook
Ign Transit which made net gains of about
points each. Metropolitan Street Railway
and Third Avenue gained 81 and points
respectively. Much interest centered in st.
Paul dividend When it was announced
that the regular disbursements would be
made, some who had expected an increased
return sold, and the Changers generally
eased Off Sugar and Pacific Mail were
strong features In the list, the latter on
talk of improved earnings.
There seemed to be a disposition for Bos-
ton banks to recall currency from New
York, the premium of Boston exchange on
New York being 10 and Is cents. The fact
that the New York sub-treasury will to-
morrow draw on the clearing house for ST.
o00,00O, par of the Central Pacific money,
some bankers considered did not warrant
any expectation of money stringency and
there was no appearance of it in today's
call money market
Ihere was brisk demand in todays bond
market for the semi-speculative issues
which generally ruled at improved prices
offerings of the gilt edge issues were light,
with transactions at marked advances over
previous figures. Total sales $780, 900.

Dry Goods
New York, March 9.-The general cotton
goods situation at first hands shows as
fully strong tone as before, but there has
this week been a falling off in the business
actually pressing. There are bids for large
quantities of staples floating around but
buyers do not come up to practicable prices
in such instances with any celebrity. Adj
vances in quotations are less frequent.
There is no giving way in any direction,
but the upward movement is less pro-
nounced than of late. Cotton hosiery and
underwear Is In better demand than of late
No change In the wooden goods division.
Cotton Letter
By Leased Wire to T. G. Hewlett, Agent
Birmingham, March 9-Cotton ruled fe-
verish today. Liverpool closed to 3 points
lower and sent orders to sell new crop,
but this market was sustained by local
and southern demand, though the specula-
tive buying was neither active or general.
Port receipts estimated for the week at
about 90, 900 bales against 14400O bales a
year ago.

Birmingham, March 9.-Although show

market IN the main was strong After an
early advance, however, the room traders
sold stocks on the theory that there would
be no increase in dividends on st. Paul and
figured that reaction would follow the
official announcement. There was an af-
ternoon decline of over per cent. from best
prices IN st. Paul and other Vanderbilt
railway shares. The coalers made early
advances but later receded. Sugar rose 2H
per cent, but subsequently 1t broke nearly
2 per cent. Missouri Pacific was very active

The markets here were dull on the danger
of trouble with Russia in China and the
prospects of e5Oe0O 900 deficit, owing to
the addition of 93,000,00O for naval esti-

apprehensive, and especially as regards
Russia.
Americans opened rather under par and
promptly advanced, expecting a REPETITION
of yesterday. Ontarios and Readings led
