yesterday. the bullish sentiment quickly fiattened out. The general list merely followed in the wake of the Reading movement. That stock was heavy from the outset but its decided break on the announcement of the rupture of negotia- tions at Indianapolis gave a decisive course to the whole list. The selling was not pressed urgently beyond the realizing on yesterdays purchases, and the market showed symptoms of dropping back into it's state of semi-stagnation. The an nouneement of the increase in the divi- dend rate of Anaconda induced some buy ing of Amalgamated Copper and caused quite a brisk rally in which the metal stocks shared largely. Buying for Lon don account was a feature of the early dealing and served as a drag on the fall in prices. This was factor in the fur ther decline in foreign exchange, Discus sion continued of the likelihood of further gold enga gements, but no definite an nouncement was made. The call money market was tranquil today and rates for time loans were quotably lower in spite of the approach of the April 1 require ments. Dividend and interest disburse- ments for that period this year are very heavy and much in excess of the same period in previous years. The banks also appear to be losing cash, the loss to the sub-treasury since Friday having risen to $l ,S46,000 against gain for the same time last week of $1,2S50O0. The sub-terasury was also & creditor at the clearing house again this morning. Ship ments of money by the local banks to outside money centers in preparation for the April l settlements are said to be on a liberal scale. New York exchange at Chicago slipped back to a discount today against yesterday. Last prices of stocks were above the lowest of the day, but the closing tone was easy.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales. par value s2,17o,000 United States bonds were all unchanged on call
