STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, March 2S.-Another day of
furious activity and buoyant rise of
prices marked the further progress of the
bull campaign in the stock market. The
process Of digesting profits by selling out
on the upward course was going on all
the time and caused an appearance of
some irregularity by pulling back stocks
here and there. But the buying demand
and the absorptive power of the market
were net at all impaired by this process.
The market gave every appearance OF
having shaken off the control of the pro-
fessional element. Manipulation was in
evidence in some individual stocks, and
the buying by the professionals on large
scale emphasized the advancing tendency
in some cases. The profit taking by the
same element some times checked or pre-
vented the advance in other stocks, but
the large general demand for stocks from
all sourcs carried everything before it
and made the undertone of the market
aggressively strong throughout. There
is manifestly very large body of buyers
seeking to secure stocks. Their orders
are executed through commission houses
and are received by wire and mail from
all quarters. Other movements are Incl
dental, due to individual causese in special
stocks or to the movements to take
profits above indicated. American Sugar
was point of weakness at different times
during the whole day and there was
heaviness here and there in the Iron
and Steel stocks. There was some dis
position to go contrary to London's lead,
a number of the stocks which were ad-
vanced in the market being heavily sold
here, while others which fell in the early
trading there were abruptly advanced
here. This was notably true of the Read
ing stocks and of Pennsylvania, in which
prof taking was in evidence in this mar
ket all day. There was some heaVlness
during the early hours in the Paciflcs also
but as the day advanced the strength IN

the apparent anomaly Of rise in sterling
