NEW YORK, April 16.-The general de-
mand for stocks today, promised by last las
weeks important developments In the
money market. on the whole proved
first hour of the stock exchange ses-
sion, but a large proportion of the day,
total business was transacted In that
time Neither was there any important
addition to the price advances after that
time and in the final hour they were
generally lost. This was something OF a
which had counted upon a decided revival
of speculative activity with the definite
breaking of the stringency in money
The fact OF the breakng gd OF o 5he f,rfber Stl
apprehension of. immediate scarcity OF
money was heard expressed. The moder-
ate effect on the stock market Oh tnls
of widely varied conJectures. The con.
siderable advance of the latter part or
last week was REGARDED as as having dis u.s.
money situation to some degree.
The fact that London observed the
Easter Monday holiday today left g open en-
the question as to what effect would be
produced both In the stock market and
on money rates in London as the result
of the forced Withdrawals of gold from
there for New York account. An unfaVor-
able effect on the London money market
might have a. reflex effect here in spite
of the direct benefit to New York OF the
sgold supply secured. English newspaper
comment on the situation gave some ap-
prehension as to the results of this
weeks engagements of gold.
Today's statement of subtreasury, opera
tions with the banks showed q loss In
cash by the government institution OF
s13,9 900, making a total loss thus far
for the banking week of 1000.
Quotations on the New York exchange
at interior points today indicate that the
flow of currency to this center which
set in last week was still in force.
There was very active discussion in
banking circles of the new plan of. the
United States treasury measures to stimu-
late gold imports.
The show of strength in today's mar
ket was most noticeable in industrials
and specialties, especially In those not
first grade.
The fixing of Thursday. for the dividend
meeting on Amalgamated Copper induced
active speculation in that stock on the
expected rise.
company broke that stock 13 points, the
decline being attributed to losses sus-
tained. because of the printers strike.
Foreign exchange was strong, but call
money worked easier during the day.
Prices of Stocks, however, continued to
recede from the early rise and closed
easy and generally at net losses.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, 81, ,0s0, 900.
United States bonds were all unchanged
on call.
