STOCK MARKET
 WAS DEPRESSED In Response to Saturdays Unfa- vorabIe Bank Statement. SUGAR WAS CONSPICUOUS London Showed Disposition to Buy Wall Street Stocks in Spite of
 the Stiffness of Her
 Money Market

New York; April 9.-The stock market made the expected response to Saturdays unfavorable bank statement by a general drawing in of speculative ventures. The selling pressure was not particularly severe in the general market but with the cur tailment of the buying demand, consequent upon the disappointment over the bank showing, the burden of offerings was suf- ficient to bear down prices to low level
 The higher range of prices in London and an opening here above Saturdays level in sympathy did not have the hoped-for ef- feet of dissuading sellers. On the con- trary the higher prices seemed to invite profit taking and the opening gains were not long maintained. The acute depres- sion manifested by sugar had an addition al influence in depressing the market
 The movement in the specialties was due to individual cases. The street was full of rumors all day regarding Sugar and having much to do with the rise in price of raw sugars. Brooklyn Transit was manipulated by a pool with a preliminary tip for an advance. Disappointment over the reported terms of Peoples Gas-Ogden settlement, was the cause of weakness in Peoples Gas.
 London showed a disposition to buy stocks here in spite of the stiffness of the London money market on the taking up of another installment of the war loan, but last weeks large borrowing for London account to carry stocks here. Although the stock market weakened the banks showing, the money market failed to show any effect on the decrease in resources of the banks.
 Business in bonds was of moderate vol ume and prices were well held. Total sales, par value, 2,455,000
 United States As and 5s declined II in the bid price.
