sS NEW YORK, March 14.-Realizing
sales over weighted the stock market
tHtay and checked the rising tendency,
nut there were persistent REVEALS of
speculative advances here and there in
the, list. which kept up tn tone OF the
market and gave it resisting power.
The urgent selling pressure was only
at the higher level and with the yield
ing OF prices the volume OF offerings
7 decreased to Ineffective proportions
Credulitv was rather severely taxed in
some OF the reports which have in
sDired the rise in special stocks, ow-
ing to the entire lack Of authoritative
confirmation. The profit taking of the
aay was absorbed as usual and adj
Vances were renewed at many points.
Some distrust continues to be eX-
pressed over the extent OF the adj
Vances and over the reliability OF the
factors which caused them and the
high level OF prices is regarded with
apprehension in conservative quar-.
tors.
National banks will pay tomorrow

ple'ins the recent call. but the money
