BY j. r. i. Darlington & Co
New York, March 1.-The market opened
at a general recovery above closing
prices, due to the Pacific attitude of Ger
many in regard to our position in Manila
and Samoa. After execution of opening
orders, however, free liquidation of com
MISSION houses started a decline which eX-
tended from small fractions to or per
cent, the greater sufferers being BurlinS-
ton and Quincy, American Steel and Wire
and Atchison preferred. Following this
decline, however, covering of shorts 10y
traders and quite free buying by London
of Ontario and Western, and Atchisons
and Pactics again rallied the list so that
p to midday no material change in prices
had taken place.
We have been warning you persistently
for the past month that there was u like
lihood of money becoming dearer and this
| morning one of the prominent institutions
. advanced rates for loans to all customers
from la to l per cent, according to col
! lateral In our opinion the heavy inter-
estS in the street are pretty well out of
| stocks and while we may have sharp rail-
| lies yet until the whole situation is clear
er, we do not advise purchases except
on very pronounced declines.
Money, in our opinion, will continue TO
work closer, the heavy commitments due
! to the floating industrial combinations IN
! addition to the movement TO the interior
! Is gong to lock up funds for the next two
| months to such an extent as to make Il
| extremely difficult to carry any but the
| best securities at ordinary rates. This
]
| public in the specialties and as the rail
! road list is not in a condition at the mo-
! ment to move upward to any extent we
| think that the course of prices, tempo
rarity at least will be towards lower
! values.
1t is extremely difficult to write free i'm
| this way without creating the impressi n
! that we are bears on the whole situation.
| This is not so. In some ways the gem
! cral situation is better today than it was
! at the height of the great BOOM" but It
has changed in this respect that while
the railroads are at their height Of pros
! perity the trade combinations are Just
! beginning to appreciate the value Of the
| new conditions. The market in the last
! hour developed renewed weakness and
! although the declines were not very large.
| the failure to rally prices during the day
, seems to indicate a continuance of the
! reaction. Money ruled somewhat closer
! lending as high as 4 per cent, although
| the majority of loans was made below g.
The close was irregular and unsteady.

AXLES OF CARS AND ENGINES.
Steel axles are made from bessemer
steel, although open hearth steel IS
much better but it's cost prevents it's
use only in special cases. The steel
is poured from the converter to the
ingot molds, taken to the rolls and
formed into blooms seven inches
square. The bloom is heated ana
pounded to the correct shape and size
in a similar manner to the iron axle.
The objection to the steel axle is based
on it's liability to contain blow-hOles,
formed during the pouring, and which
cannot be taken out or discovered un-
der the hammer. There are several
patent methods of treating steel FOR
aXles that it is claimed removes the
effect of the blow-hole and tOushens
the steel. but the methods are SO ev-
pensive that their use has not become
general.
Freight and light passenger cars
have four aXles TO a car. Heavy
coaches and sleepers have six. with
4 diameter of five inches. The center
# an axle is slightly smaller in dia-
meter than the wheel fit, car builders
claiming there is less strain on the
center .han The wheel fit. Car aXles
weigh from 800 to 450 pounds each and
re from to feet in length, accord
ug to the size of the journal. Locoin J.
tive aXles are larger and heavier than
car aXles, weighing from $50 to $50
bounds and having a diameter of or
inches. The aXles commonly breaks
at the journal, or wheel fit, and rarely
N the center.
