New York, April 5.-All the legitimate
conditions surrounding the market this
morning were again favorable to =
continuance of the bullish sentiment 60
markedly in the ascendency during the
past week. OF course it was anticipat-
ed that there would be the usual Satur-
dav profit taking by weaker and more
cautious holders and this was expected
TO operate against any decided contin-
uance OF the upward movement so far
as today's market was concerned. il
was also argue hat while the more
important shorts nav lately shown a
strong disposition to cover. that they
were not yet sufficiently demoraliZeI
to hid the market up on themselves.
The short interest in the market is still
immense. 1t is well known that thu
consolidated Liverpool and stocks afoar
are all hedged by short sales between
here and Liverpool and this represents
something like 1900. 900 bales. Witt

substantial basis backed up as it is by
an overwhelming bull sentiment
throughout the country, there is very

The talk Of the town yesterday was
the absorption of the Plant system by

firmation of which has been
by President Warren G. Elliott, of the

The interest in the consolidation now
turns to the probable effect it might
have upon Wilmington which is the
eadquarters of the Atlantl Coast Line.
One thing is certain, if the management
of the great system of nearly five thou
