WALL STREET. REVIEW
sPtcULAroRs PUZZLED OVER
 UNION PACIFIC.
Plausible Theory That the Accumu- lation of the Stock is in
 the Interest of the
 St. Paul.

New York, March 30.-There was prac- ticaily nc limit to the surmise and con lecture with which professional Wall Street induiged itself today over the hid- den significance of the accumulation of Union Pacific stock which has been the mystery in the market now for many days. The favorite hypothesis at the out set today was that the accumulation was in the interest of the St. Paul interests and it was asserted with every appear ance of conviction that an official state msHt would shortly be, forthcoming from thefSt. Paul authorities that they had secqred 200,0e0 shares of Union Paciha~ What gave piausibility to this rumor was the admitted anxiety felt by St. Paul interests at the time of the Burr lngton purchase over the comparative isolation in which the St. Paul system would be left. The making of surveys looking to the extension to the Pacific Ooo,0O0 additional St. Paul stock are mat ters of public record. 1t is matter of common notor1ety also that relations he- tween St. Paul and Union Pacific in the interchange of traffic and of common ownership of stock are already close. But the assumption that some Of the protec- tion necessitates such acton by St Paul presumes similar necessity on the part Of all the Paci1cs and transcontinental railroad systems for control of through facilities from a trunk line terminus to thes Pacific coast. Hence the rise In St.. Panl was logically aScss;ompanied by
 
 and others situated in like manner and fioods of new rumors extended the prln- ciple Illustrated in St. Paufs supposed purchases of Union Pacific. One Varia- tion of the rumOr was that the buying was for the Gould group rather than for St. Paul. The enormous capital require n1eats for such an interchange of owner ship did not seem to affect the credeace given to rumors. although it will be re- nlcmbered that the avowed purpose of the Northern Securities device wa sto make less onerouS the enormous holdings of Northern Pacific. which has been accu- mnlated in the contest for control of that Northern Securities device was to make Influence on the rise in prices. Cheerful reports were heard of the coal trade re- duction in prices of anthracite to go into effect on April 1 is expected to stimulate demand Those who sold United States Steel preferred on the fear that the divi- dcnd Is to be reduced seem to feel reas- sured today and that stock recovered it's yesterdays decline and held better than the average.

 NEW YORK. March 3o-After all is said and done the market to-day was a greater ex- hibition of strength than weakness. There was very little business almost none at all; yet the price held well. Liverpool failed to advance in a way to bring outside buyers hore and of course the holiday had something to do with 1t. New Orleans was firm. Prices there ran all the way from 36 to 45 points July and May sold 5 to 20 over May here. As long as Liverpool keeps a cent over May and New Orleans keeps its premiums there is not likely to be much pressure on the New York market. In fact 1t Is a question whether shorts will not groW' nervous in the event of good exports and small receipts during the next few weeks It is a strong position we have In cotton and the only trouble is traders get too long and have to shell out the first break At IS cents cotton Is selling at good price and would buy on breaks only. In case LiV- erpool takes the cotton she should take. or the amount those conversant with facts in the case believe she must take. there is likely to be a lively market for some time to come For the present buyers at IS cents are not numerous and 1t takes a break to bring in business There seem- to be money In taking cotton on weak spots and not getting discouraged be- cause prices move some lower. Buyers have always been able to get out at a profit trad ing IEtS basis

Caldwell, Ward & Co.'S Market Letter

NEW YORK, March 3o.--The feature of to-day's cotton market has been the small movement and the extremely small estimate of the insight movement for the week as com pared with last year, both of which are re- garded as very bullish and largely account for the steady market We have had to-day. Liver pool closed firm around opening prices New Yorks fluctuations during the day have been narrow, but the tendency has been upward The trade savers strongly of holiday season and Is mostly professional but the bull senti- ment has predominated during the latter part of the session and the general impression ia that We vii see better prices next week We consider the market in safe position and fa- vOr purchases on any easy spot. On New York's close tonight Liverpool is due to come 10 to 2 up tomorrow.

 NEW YORK. March 90; --The cotton future market to-day opened steady ID tone with hfst prices at . decline of s to l2 points. There was fresh break of iiquidation, and some Of the options sold down another few points. The bear interests worked hard to maintsin their position, and they had weak cables on theiy side. the foreign adviees being more besfish than generally looked for. The prt- vate adxices from abroad indicated indiner- ence among the English spihners despite the very small crop movement. On the lower lew els there swss . good line of support New Or leans vas an. active, buyer. but many of the smaller, longs were disposed to even up in view of the forthcoming holidays. However the market at times dspiayed considerable sta bility and, naturally the feeling reiected @ hrmer undertone. .-Runlots circulated thgoggh- out the day q big snort interests had been located and efforts would be made to make this element get under cover before the holidays. The trade as the day wore on turned gGset with the professional interests doing the bulk of the business. The Wall street houses however. continued to express bearIsh views regardless of the character of nuetuationa. The receipts generally were small and continued Night receipts were expected In many of the interior towns. The spot market south .wps fairly good feeling The. estifnated port ; Te; ceipts, for the day were 7.000, against 8vStF for the same day last year.
