feelingly of their stringent circum-

tion fails to remedy their suiferinss
and there is need OF economy.
Mr.. Thomas believed that if the
pension rolls are properly revised,
$3.50, 900 would 60 as far us $500. .000
with loose regulations. This is a husi-
ness proposition against a sentimental
policy. He declared further that there
is now a statute requiring county
commissioners to give financial assist
ance to needy soldiers.
Capt. Brooks wanted to know if the
law requires or empowers the commits

YESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET.

Hopes of Rise im Stocks Disappointed
 New York, March 30.-Hopes of a rise in prices of stocks to-day as a re- suit of the favorable bank statement of Saturday were disappointed. The open ing dealings proved that the Sunday in- terval had resulted in an accumulation of selling orders from various points. Apparently the banks were not calling loans but many brokers sent out calls for additional margin and the increased demand for call money which resulted ran the rate up late in the day to s per cent. The hope that the corner in the money market had been turned was seen to be without warrant, and disap- pointed holders threw over stocks again all through the list. The decline in the first hour was not acute except in few stocks and there was very general recovery by midday, but the demand fell into almost complete stagnation at the high level. The break in Southern Pacific to the lowest point on the pres- ent movement aroused uneasiness as to the position of the pool in that stock and this had repressing effect on the whole list. The supposition that the leader of this pool has embarked on very extensive campaign for the short account in the general market, to recuperate losses believed to have been sustained on the bull side in Southern Pacific, while at the same time attempting to maintain the pool holdings of Southern Pacific, offers speculative anomaly the possible ef- fleets of which Wall streets most in- genious critics admit they are unable to. forecast. The late break in New York Central was accompanied by un- founded rumors that the New Haven men had gone out on strike. The cov- ering by room shorts lifted prices fraction but the closing was irregular and active.
 The loss by the banks to the sub- treasury on Saturday of nearly a mil lion dollars and the credit balance at the clearing house of that institution this morning of $409, ,S18 revived the ap- prehension over the condition of bank ing reserves.
 The bond market was irregular but not very active. Total sales par value $2,93O, ,0O0.
 United States threes coupon advanc- ed 1-4, the new fours IA and the old fours 3-4 per cent. on the last call.
