NEW YORK March 27.-Lonlon's domi-
rant influence in the current speculation
was clearly demonstrated in today's stock
market Foreign houses again traded very
heavily IN this market and upon the OPEN
ing of business they were large buyers Of
various stocks. Subsequently, however
they were equally heavy sellers. particu-
larry OF The higher priced shares. and on
balance their dealings were not in rousid-
cradle volume. IN consequence of these
operations the market opened very sJrone-
but it subsequently lapsed into irreeuiariJs
and the trading fell aWHy materially Do
respect of activity.
Aside from the influence czerted hy the
dealings here for foreign account. there
was little or nothing I'm The day siiua-
tion on which attention conferred. Gentr-
ally speaking the trading showed "a pro-
rounced transfer OF interest from The

Gently been in the lead Of the market TO
the industrials and the local traction
shares. These for the most part were
decidedly strong the days views regard
ing the operations of the franchise law
being seemingly less pessimistic than
heretofore.
There was little or no gossip attending
the strength Of Sugar Refining and the
steel industrials. but their upward move
ment was to have been expected after the
weeks advance in the railway list. The
latter was by no means uniformly weak
as both Northern Pacific and Union Pacific
continued firm, and there was little pres
sure as regarding the granger shares.
Louisville and Nashville Baltimore and
Ohio Pennsylvania. Atchison and Missouri
Pacific. on the other hand, were reaction
airy. particularly as regarded those Of the
stocks listed in London. There was more
activity in the anthracite coal shares than
for a number Of weeks and they were all
decidedly strong. particularly the Reading
issues.
A large number Of highly gratifying
statements of railroad traffic for various
periods were submitted within the course
Of the day These. together with a slightly
frmer market for sterling exchange and
further relaxation in the money market
about comprised the days actual develop
ments.

for Syracuse, y. Y, to take charge Of Leroy
c. Shear. alias Charles r. Clark, who Is
wanted here for the passing OF alleged
worthless checks to the amount of $500

offered a substantial sum for the capturs

develops now that the Syracuse police will
not prosecute Shear, and are willing that
he should come to Washington.
Shear is said TO be noted forger and TO
have served penltentiary terms. He is
