STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, March 1.-The stock mar
ket reflected from the outset today the
reduction of the unw1eldly short interest
by the large covering which took place
yesterday and which caused so lively q
rally at the weak point of the market
Practically all these stocks showed re
newed weakness today, Third Avenue
conspicuously so. This stock fell In the
last hour to q new low level, full point
below yesterdays lowest and rallied but
fe,ably, closing with q net loss of S1b
Rumors We're circulated of a very heavy
assessment to be levied ON the stock to
effect the reorganization. The other
local traction stocks relapSed weakly i'll
sympathy, declines ranging in the group
from two in Manhattan Elevated to 6;A
in Metropolitan Street Railway. The
short interest in American Sugar was
less eager to cover and that stock also
fell back, falling an extreme 4a4 and
closing with a net loss of 80. Very
marked weakness in the Metal stocks
was an added factor towards reaction,
American Hoop leading the decline with
a loss for the common stock of "A and
for the preferred of 4 points Colorado
Fuel and Iron, the Federal Steel stocks,
American Tim Plate, American Steel
and Wire, National Steel and Tennessee
Coal and Iron lost from IA to 3l2 from
the best prices, the last named having
shown considerable strength in the early
dealings. Peoples Gas Light and Coke
Company reacted 2&. Outside business
was very much hampered on account of
interrupted telegraphic communication
and the buying orders through commits
sion houses which have been growing in
volume for a number of days past, fell
to insignificant proportions. There was,
however, Il good demand early in the
day for railroad stocks based ON the con-
sinlled reports of large earnings for JAN
uary, in spite of the high level of operat-
ing expenses.
The great Pennsylvania system show
ed gain in net earnings for January of
the lines directly operated, both east and
west of Pittsburg of 73 per cent. The
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, with
only a small increase in operating ex-
penses showed an increase in net earn
ings of no less than 172 per cent. The
C. C. G.. and St Louis system increased
it's surplus fer January over ten fo.d and
Louisville and Nashville's earnings were
As per cent greater than last year. Such
notable growth in earning power natur-
ally led to buying of railroad stocks,
many of the less prominent stocks join
ing in the movement, but the whole list
succumbed to the influence of the weak
ness in the Speeialties. st. Paul's state
ment for January also had a discourag-
ing effect as it showed the gross in
crease nearly all eaten UP 10y additional
operating expenses. The decision Of rail-
road presidents TO give official sanction
to the notorious cutting Of grain rates
from Chicago had some influence on the
railroad list. London was a beral buyer
of stocks during the day on the strength
of the relief of Ladysmith and took
fully 10000 shares. Sterling exchange
rate yielded IS on this account and on

COTTON.
New York, March While the cotton
market, opened under great excitement
ut an advance of 2 to IS points and
further advanced / TO 10 points during
the forenoon, the volume OF busne was
materially less than it was Yesterday
In the afternoon trading was auieter
and prices receded from the high level
There We're numerous periods of reac-
ton, alternating with rallies. But the
special energy which characterized THE
market yesterday was lacking today a
special support, which, to a considerable
extent, accounted for the morning adj
vance was withdrawn by the retirement
Of Wall Street party which for sew
eral days has been conspicuous figure
in the market.
Long cotton came out freely an the
afternoon and there was less timidity in
the matter of selling for short account.
Some houses detected a toppiness to the
market. and considerable part of the
late selling was in the way of creating a
new short interest.
Receipts while much smaller were dou-
BILE the movement of a year ago, and the
acreage talk continued bearish. Coun-
try orders were scarce owing to deranged
wires.
