STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, March PA number of
causes contributed to the general weak
ness and dullness shown by the stock
market today. Chief among these was
the belief that banking interests regarded
with disfavor any move in the direction
of high prices. This attitude appears
to be based on the belief that monetary
conditions as a whole are not such as
to warrant even a moderate extension Of
speculative commitments. London's
prices also were lower, the all around
weakness in that market being led by
consols. which touched the lowest point
in thirty years However there was one
note OF encouragement from abroad The
annual report of the Dresden bank said
that fears Of a collapse of the industrial
development of this country were rapidly
diminishing. Opening prices in the stock
maket were lower for the most part,
and reflected an irregular undertone. but
there was little pressure to sell save
in the case of Union Pacific. Recessions
marked the early course of Rock Is
land Union Pacific, Copper, Sugar and
several specialties, while Tennessee Coal,
Metropolitan and Brooklyn Transit were
finn. Before the end of the first hour
the market became more listless and
prices drifted within a narrow range
Southern Pacific was erratic throughout,
selling at an advance of IA in the
early dealings, but declining later to the
lower level.
Following a slight hardening of prices
in the early period OF the afternoon,
where abortive efforts were made to ad-
vance ST Paul another liuuida ting
movement set in and number of issues
registered sharp declines. some stocks
closing at the lowest prices of the day.
The drive seemed to be directed chiefly
against the Pacifics, some of the Changers
and Readings and had the effect of un-
settling the general list London sold
upwards of 10000 shares. and bought
very little Sterling exchange was IL
points lower. but the demand was light.
Further ease was shown in the rate for
time loans. and the days business in call
money which was freely offered, was
onlv moderate. The bond market was

New York, March 23.-Liverpool lost
its advance and there was some bear
pressure in the early trading A single
holder unloaded $4,000 bales in the Liv-
erpool market which was the cause of
the easier feeling abroad.
1t is quite noticeable that when such
large lines are thrown upon the market,
there is only a decline of few points.
II 1000 bales had to be bought in a
single day in any market, there would
be a sharp advance.
Mr.. Sully stood around the ring, but
did absolutely nothing, nor did any one
see him give a single order. He seems
to be entirely confident of his position
and is rather encouraging the accumula-
ton of a short interest. 1t was said
that the bear leader was about to in
stitute suit for nearly 100000 dollars
against a prominent brokerage house for
closing out certain contracts, and this
caused considerable comment. On the
whole, it was day Of many rumors, but
very little trading. The market is over
sold unquestionably, and any slight ia
vorable circumstance will start a cover
ing movement, which will carry prices
much higher in a very short time.

New York. March 23.-We are not able
to explain todays market It now looks
as though the selling in August at $50
should have been continued even in the
face Of all the bullish news. The only
reason we can possibly assign to the
decline is the better weather in the Mis-
sissippi Valley. This brought out a lot
of new crop months and the selling in
fall options was as much a factor as
anything throughout the day During
the afternoon there was selling in March
and that month weakened badly The
selling finally weakened the whole list
There was some buying by Liverpool.
Weather in the Atlantic States was bad
again and the storms north did not
give much encouragement for the believ-
ers in better weather. Tt does not seem
as though this rain would ever stop. We
will blind our eyes to the strong Stats
teal position to every favoring factor,
as soon as we get good weather Sun
shine and planting for the next crop will
bring about break no matter If the
bulls buy a million bales of cotton. The
season is so backward that scare of
spinners is more than likely at any time.
The movement is not likely to be large
This week as roads are too bad and some
railroads are not moving trains. For this
reason we are not looking for much OF
break at the moment. The market
is called upon to take long cotton around
ten cents. but buying takes place on
decline On break in the morning, we
would take in short cotton.
Cotton futures today ranged as fol-
lows:

New York, March 23-Liverpool was
rather discouraging this morning, and
decline here OF 5 to points followed.
The news from Southern spot centers
was however, too good to justify the
lower futures, and prices recovered be-
fore the close. A feature which made
the market weak for a while was the
estimate Of 1000 to 5000 bales receipts
at New Orleans tomorrow. But that was
explained when Memphis reported for
the day gross receipts of only 2,944 and
shipments Of 9,462. This makes a big
hole in Memphis stock, which will not
be filled while present weather and flood
conditions continue, while the same cot
ton, arriving at New Orleans tomorrow
will Immediately go aboard ship and
leave the country for good. SO what APP
peared at first blush a big port move
ment turns out only another big hole
made in an uncomfortably small interior
stock.
Port stocks are undergoing the same
reducing process, receipts footing up A.
600, while exports were over $4,000
Stocks here lost 5000 today, owing to
heavy exports, and thus the May posi-
tion is daily growing stronger. A fea-
ture which seems to have been over
looked is the forthcoming ginners' re-
port from the Census Bureau. This
was promised US on March IS, but post
poned to "about April list" Only eight
days hence 1t is not probable that the
report will afford much comfort or profit
to the shorts.
In fact, the market seems to be gath
cring strength from every quarter, and
a further advance would seem but the
natural outcome.

New York, March 23.-Values in dry

of Saturday, but at the time for the local
opening the English market was IL to
points lower and the close there was
at a net loss of 3 IL to points. The sell
ing was also encouraged by unsatisfac-
tory accounts from Fall River and other
New England centers regarding the labor
situation but after the market had de-
clined 8 or 4 points further there was
a relapse which carried prices back to
little above the opening The upward
movement was chiefly due to covering
by room shorts and there was also some
commission house buying probably for
