STOCK MARKET
 AGAIN ACTIVE An AppreciabIe Check to the
 Upward Move, DISPOSITION TO REALIZE The Weight of Profit Taking Proved Too Much for Any Stocks Which Have Been Prominent in
 Recent Movement

New York March 27-The stock market continued very active and varied but there was an appreciable check to rne uf- ward movement of prices, and distinct falling off in the volume of the demand. The disposition to realize made itself felt in additional stocks. As consequence the market came to that condition during the day which the professional operators called tired.
 The absorptive power was impaired, and 2 the weight of profft-tsking proved too much for any stocks which have been most prominent in the recent upward movement. This was conspicuously so of the group of the trunk lines, including Pennsylvania, Norfolk and Western and Baltimore and . Ohio. The stock of the latter company fluctuated widely all day and were under very palpable manipulation. The common and the preferred stocks were again osten- tatiously brought to parity in the late deal ings.
 London took profits on a large scale today and its selling of stocks about equalled It's buying. A number of strong returns of net earnings for February was disregarded in the trading.
 The bond market was not so active as yesterday, but large business was done at advanced prices. Total sales, par value; $4.SS5.OO0. United States 2s, registered, E; and do coupon and new &s A in the bid price The old As declined F and the 5s Il per cent.

COTTON MADE 4 q
 STEADY GAIN The Heaviest Buying Came from
 the Short Side. TONE WAS GENERALLY FIRM Speculation Was Not Aggressive, as Many Traders Were Intimidated by Fear of Manipulation In-
 vited by the Statistics
TONE WAS GENERALLY FIRM

New York, March 27.-The cotton market opened quiet and firm, unchanged to 3 points higher, with shorts the best buyers. Except for some Wall street and Liverpool buying early in the session the demand from this class of traders was the feature of the business. General speculation, how ever, improved little.
 Following the opening call the market continued to rally, but the improvement was slow until the afternoon, when the summer months became comparatively active and lead the way to higher prices for the general list. At best, the advance was a matter of 7d15 points. Speculation was not at all aggressive, many traders intimidated by fears of manipulation in- vited by the statistical position.
 There was considerable buying at times for Liverpool and Wall street account, the latter partly owing to backward prepara- tions for planting on account of unpro- pitious weather. News in general was so conflicting that the market had no decided trend. The close was steady at net ad- vance of 6Q15 points.

Financial

New York, March 27.-The Commercial Advertisers London financial cablegram says:
 Americans were again the main feature in the market here today, though the volume of business was smaller than yesterday. They opened strong and well above parity Paris and Berlin also buying. This move ment was met by heavy realizing and prices reacted, but rallied somewhat and remained dull until p. m., when New York opened with a spotty tendency, selling most things and later everything. In the house prices closed weak but there was some raGying in the street, most securities showing gains on balances. Southern Pacific was London fayorite in the morning. Rates were stiff at 51b06, but takers of Baltimore and Ohio were pretty numerous. Consols and the war loans were weakish, the tendency in money being to harden though loan and discount rates were unchanged, and there were some signs of an early break. The Bank of England did a considerable fresh business in discounts.

ArTuH Council meeting held Monday
Night Communication was presented
by W. W. Clud asking that the Council
make some effort 10 protect the property
on Main street In case Of IRE. IL was
set forth In the communication that q
good nFe company could DO organized,
to b. provided with hooks and ladders,
buckets, hose, etc., and two double se-
tion suction pumps. Also TO sink two or
more wells feet square, 8 to 10 feet be-
low the water mark. In addition to
this small portable chemical engine
could be used, which, Mr.. Cluif claims,
any ordinary fro. u taken In time, could
be extinguiShsd. There certainly 10 no
question but what Ooalyille is badly In
need Of some protection in case OF FIRE.
An effort was made by the last Council
10 put Ia q good water works system, and
this enterprise was killed by the vote OF
the people. OF course IL would have
been necessary to bond the Olty in order
TO put in the plant, but had II been
established, Coalville would have been
much better OF today, The plan pro-
posed by Mr.. Cluif we believe would not
be very successful in case Of large nrs,
