STOCK MARKET
 HAD WEAK CLOSE Speculative Enthusiasm for Ad- vance Received a Shock. BUYING DEMAND FELL AWAY Showing Made by the Clearing House Banks in Their Weekly State-
 ment Caused the Rapid
 Decline of Stocks
BUYING DEMAND FELL AWAY

New York, April 1.-The speculative en- thusiasm for an advance in prices or se- curities received a decided shock In the showing made by the clearing house banks in their weekly statement today. The buy ing demand fell away and stocks came up on the market at declining prices. The most important of the earlier gains were wiped out and the market closed weak, prices moving in contrary directions in dif- ferent parts of the lists and net changes being much mixed. The short session thus ended the suspicious week under the influence of renewe1 buying orders from abroad, which were said to have their source in Holland. Bull pools resumed their operations in various stocks and the continued strength in Sugar gave tone to the industrial list
 The official reports for March of the op- erations of the new financial law make 1t evident that the banks are not rushing into a precipitate note imitation, and even to the extent of the 10 per cent. increase in pres ent deposits of bonds they have proceed ed in leisurely manner. The high price of government bonds has invited large realizing and consequent withdrawal of cir culation of banks selling their bonds, mak- ing the lookout regarding bank circulation much confused. But this realizing in gov ernments has been accompanied by large liquidation of loans to New York banks with which the bonds were held and has
 
 fected in the broad and active market for railroad shares
 Through the disbursement of premiums on United States bonds presented for con- version and the payment of April interest, the sub treasury of New York has re- leased addition sums to the money market. The largely increased demand for stock market operations has thus been easily met. London's operations in Americans have continued on a large scale, but the sterling exchange rate has continued up- ward. London selling to take profits partly explains this. The fact is also cited that while buying low-priced stocks London was selling the high priced ones, thus leaving credit balance on account. The prospects of the grain crops and the evidences of for eign needs in the grain market are an ele- ment of increasing influence in the stock market.

BULLISH NEWS FELL FLAT

New York. April 1.-The cotton market opened steady with prices 2 to points higher, this improvement being based on firmer English cables than expected and reports of lighter excessive rains in the western belt. The bullish news fell flat as mediatey following the call business drop ped off abruptly to a struggling room, week evening up of accounts. Local shorts, New Orleans representatives and Europe bought the summer months on the call, but later neglected the market. The far months re- ceived scarcely any attention.
