Mr. Batchelder, being slightly deaf.

Any Headway.

New York, March 15.-There was

upward movement of prices on the

liquidation in some public utilities
stocks. The dullness of the market

continued collapse in Chicago Union
Traction shares caused some anxiety
as to the possible consequences where
there securities might figure as a
basis for credits. The relapse in Peo-
pies Gas was regarded as sympa-
thetic, partly on account Of liquidation
induced by the fall in traction shares
