A LACK OF ENERGY IN
STOCK TRANSACTIONS
New York Transportation
Shares Absorb Interest.
Renewed Talk of Metropolitan Con-
troll Advances Manhattan.
Rapid Transit Gains on Rumors of
Further Action in Combining
Brooklyn Companies.

New York. April 13.-The shares of the
local transportation companies were the
features OF the days stock market All of
them advanced, notably in the face Of a
rather apathetic speculation elsewhere All
OF them also attained a level out of all
proportion to their current value from an
Investment point of view. On this account
the street was forced to the conclusion that
there must be some radical developments
pending in this quarter. II must be added
that this deduction was drawn wholly from
the stock tape that is, SO far as any actual
information was concerned. Various ru-
mors were indeed current. but they are
hardly worth reciting. in the absence OF
any other substantlation that was furnish
ed by the stock market. Their general tone
was TO the effect that the Metropolitan
Street Railway In this. who In their special
field Of activity occupy the position else
where designated 10 the standard on in-
terests." had renewed their offer to pur-
chase u controlling interest in the Man
haitian Railway, An advance III Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Was aserihed 10 some fur
ther move for bringing all the traction
companies OF Brooklyn under one control.
The details OF the plan by which the latter
company Will absorb the elevated lines in
Brooklyn were also referred to in connec-
ton with the advance in the stock, and,
generally speaking the advent OF mild
weather was accounted a favorable circum-
stance as regarded all Of these stocks. As
noted, the dealings in the market, apart
from those in the local transportation
shares, were lacking in animation. Fur
ther discouraging reports in regard to the
state of the winter wheat crop, which were
backed up by the sharp rise in that staple,
initiated against the granger shares and
the stocks of other Western roads likely to
be affected by agricultural conditions. 9th
erwise the day was devoid of interesting
features. While the money market ruled
steady throughout the day, its conditions
furnished no grounds for concern and were
not influential in the market.
London houses were sellers of stocks in
the local market to a moderate extent,
chiefly of Northern Pacific shares. There
seemed TO be some wholly unwarranted
disappointment that no dividend was de-
clared yesterday on Northern Pacific com
mon. None has been expected in well in
formed quarters. although it is well known
that the company is earning fully per
cent on the stock. The industrial quarter
OF the market was not conspicuously active,
though for the most part these stocks were
very firm. The market closed rather weak,
chiefly because OF the pressure against the
granger shares on account of the reports
of crop damage.
