STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. u.-Today'c stock mar
ket showed a further expansion in the
dealings and the great irregularity of the
market continued. The selling side was
rather better represented than yesterday,
but many prominent stocks took up the
advance at new points. The disposition
TO take profits was very natural on the
eve Of holiday. There was obviously
buyers, lest the expectations of coming
deals would not be realized. This was eS-
pecially the case among the local trac-
tons where the gl3mor Of the coming
announcement Of the Metropolitan Street
Railway deal has suffered some decline.
The anxiety on the subject was keener as
an announcement OF the plan is thought
possible over the holiday. Recent san
guine expectations of benefits TO accrue
to the express companies from some sort
Of consolidation suffered some eclipse, as
shown by the sharp drop of ~ in q. S.
Express, although the stock finally raj
lied AZ. American Express after rising
nearly five points, lost II again. The
speculative assumption that last week s
huge loan expansion represented Syndl-
cate preparation for deals was subjected
TO careful scrutiny TODAY and the opinion
was developed that financial operations
already known might abundantly account
for the increased incredits. Subscriptions
to so, 900 600 of 2. q o. bonds and to
si0.00OoO of Pennsylvania equipment trust
certificates to say nothing OF the acknOwl-
edged repayment on a large scale of for
eign Indebtedness to be replaced with New
York banks, the Metropolitan Street Rail
way reaGJuStment meant to provide $780,,
- and preparations for the st. Louis
Southwestern second mortgage readjust-
ment. the New York stock issue and that
OF the Canadian Pacific. There We're,
however, significant points of strength in
the market The Steel stocks met enor-
nous offrings at every slight advance.
The late movement IN Pennsylvania was
regarded as an alternating movement
with that IN Southern Pacific and due to
operations by the same interest Texas
& Pacific was advanced on the strength
OF the increase IN the yearly disburse-
ment on the companies second incomes
The cause of the strength in the Iowa
Central stocks and the Minneapolis & St.
Louis stocks was the supposed COMPETE
uon for control between Illinois Central
and Rock Island There was a very large
buving or Southern Railway and Louis
vile q Nashville, and of number of
stocks OF comparatively small capitalize
tion which was not explained. The buy
