THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York. March 21.-There were
impressive elements of strength in the
stock market today, due to the large
and confident buying Of some Of the
railroad stocks. The market was not
very broad, the demand being restrict
ed to comparatively few stocks and
there was not much evidence Of what
is called in Wall street public interest
in the stocK market The buying was
undoubtedly based. however, on the
expectation that the public will short
ly come into the stock market. 1t is
contrary to the custom of this outside
public to come in and buy stocks when
prices are at an invitingly low level.
They wait until the rise is in full pro-
gress, and apparently the present
movement has been inaugurated with
view of affording an object lesson
in increasing values. Total sales to-
| day, 770700 shares.
Dealings in bonds were smaller and
| price changes were irregular. Total
| sales par value, $2,090,000.
