NEW YORK, April 9.-There was an
other big stock market to-day, the to-
tai sales being 1904, 100 shares Rail-
roads were generally strong, notably
Burlington and allied interests, while
there were SOFT spots in some OF the
industrials, but not enough to hurt
Call money was again marked up, go
ing to 51a per cent, but closing at
better terms. George Gould, at Omaha,
kept a duplex wire hot for three hours
to-day, to the exclusion of all other
business, and there is evidently some
thing brewing. The consummation of the
Burlington deal is confidently expecte-
ed in a few days.
Among the railroads Burlington
made a new high record, opening at
1884,, selling up to 1881, and closing
at 1854. Northern Pacific was buoyant
in sympathy, opening at 961s, going to
98%, record price, and closing at
975s. The contamination of this deal
would make Burlington practically an
s per cent stock, and it ought to sell
at 1870 in the opinion of many. It's
pretty close to that now. St Paul and
Union Pacific were also strong in SYM
patty.
The Fries and Reading recovered
Mondays loss, due largely to covering
by frightened shorts and some good
buying Rock Island took decided
upward squirt, from 143 to 149, closing
fairly strong at lat. Chicago and AL
ton common made new record, 451a.
The road is supposed to be involved in
the pending deal.
The Southwestern group of Gould
roads were strong, led by Texas Pacific
which opened at 40, record, closing at
40s4.
Wheeling and Lake Erie was quiet,
and the transactions small. Current
rumors regarding the road evidently
cut little figure. Wabash was lower,
preferred going down to 37is. but late
ly rallied to 1915. The fractions were
moderately active and strong.
In the industrials United States
Steel was at a low level on the reac-
ton. preferred going to "a and COM
mon to 1917, but there was an ad-
vance at the close, preferred being
quoted at 94&, and common at 47B.
General Electric was a sky-rocket,
opening at 215 and closing at 22S. For
this stock $50 is talked of, as it is as
serted that, whereas, it only pays per
cent. dividend, its earnings the past
year approached 35 per cent. United
State Rubber was also another indus
trial boomer, opening at 81 after clos
Ing Monday at Sc, and selling up to
IS. The close was 611h.
What will happen tomorrow is I'M
certain, but many predict an advance
in the industrials, while it appears to
be assured that the active railroads
will fully maintain to-day's prices.

In wheat the decline begun a week
ago continued unchecked. Lower cables
were offset by light northwest receipts.
and the opening therefore was without
any material change in prices. MAY
started at TN to 71ssc. compared with
yesterdays close at 71Mc. Moderate
buying, chiefly in the hope of a turn
OF the tide, caused an early rally to
711sc. No support developed, however.
anti wheat bought at the start came
out again. Finally, stop-loss orders
were uncovered, and the combined
pressure forced May down to $3.50.
Excellent weather for the crop, and
expectation of a beariSh government
report tomorrow were factors in weak
ening the market Scattered shorts

$4,000 bushels, while primary re-
ceipts were but 100000, compared with
557 600 bushels last year. Local re-
ceipts were los cars, one of contract

ftone runnlnk from Z b On but TIE
market ~ vig0fo uBly supported again
and the cl0eing was irregular The
pressure Of profit taking was not not
ably heavy, even at the advances, APP
parently the speculative holders OF
stocks were determined to hold for a
further rise unless they were forced
into liquidation by calling of loans or
by wiping out the margins. There was
much less calling of loans to-day than
yesterday and this caused attention to
several causes for special pressure in
yesterdays money market. To-day's
clearing house statement disclosed the
enormous total of exchanges of $437,-
852,980, which is over $12 600, 900 in ex-
cess Of the largest previous days rec
ord in the history of the clearing house.
The general activity of the stock mar
ket yesterday had something to do with
this. but the settlement growing out
OF the clearances in the contracts to
deliver the United States Steel stocks
when issued, was special factor. This
involved the adjournment of transac-
lions in over 100000 shares, being the
total of all the transactions since these
contracts to deliver had been dealt in.
The preparation of the certificates of
the United States Steel stocks made
possible actual deliveries, SO that oper-
ators whom the clearings showed to be
long OF the stock found themselves
called upon yesterday for settlement
The easier money in London to-day
lessened the demand for exchange and
the rate for sterling yielded fraction.
The sub-treasury was debtor at the
clearing house to day to the amount
OF $1,503.s37 on account of the payment
by the postoffice in the afternoon to
railroads for the transportation Of
mails. Yesterdays heavy liquidation
also caused some natural relief to the
money market. There was not lacking
a suspicion that yesterdays violent re-
lapse was winked at if not connived at
by sold-out bull leaders either to en-
able them to get in at lower prices or
to shake out a weak following and re-
lieve the condition of over-speculation.
The bond market was moderately act
i've and irregular. Total sales par value
$3,058,000.
