Movement of Union Pacific
Leads the Market
POOL REPORTED FORMED
No News to Explain the Advance of
Union Paeific-Expectation of
Coming Change In
Affairs.
POOL REPORTED FORMED

New York, April 29.-The extremely linn
tied operations in the stock market today
gave no hint of any growth of outside
interest. The movement of Union Pacific
was the only one worthy of note. The
strength in that stock really dominated
the whole market and gave 1t whatever
vague character 1t made. There was no
news to explain the advance in Union Pa
eifc. 1t was variously attributed to the
formation of a stock market pool to spec
uIate in the stock and to the expectation
of some coming change in the affairs of
the company that would rebound to the
benefit of the stockholders. The sympa-
thetic effect of the Union Pacific move
ment radiated through the market with
diminishing effect in stocks more remotely
connected with it, the greatest effect be-
ing shown in the more intimately con-
nected transcontinental group. The sharp
reaction in the wheat market gave some
assistance to the advocates Of higher
prices for stocks.
The amount of unloading of wheat in
duced by the news of showers In the
southwest serves to impress stock mar
ket sentiment with the large amount of
speculative influence which has been at
work in the recent wheat market, and so
detracted from the force of recent crop
scare reports.
Otherwise the day was unusually barren
of incident and offered small help towards
resolving the uncertainty which hold the
securities market in check. The price
of copper made another advance in Lon
don today, and gave some impetus to
copper securities Reports from railroad
traffic officials were of continuance of
favorable conditions, but in less san
guine tone than recently. The car stu
alton is reported easier although this is
attributed to an increased supply of new
cars, rather than to any falling off in
traffic offering. Admissions are made,
however, of some disposition on the part
of manufacturers to cut down plans for
extensions of work, and on the part OF
bankers to discourage larger OUTLAWS at
this time. This is accepted as showing

some extension of the feeling which has
prompted curtailment of railroad plans to
other fields of industry.
The keen competition in the London
market for the newly arrived gold was
looked on with interest The sharp bid
ding which advanced the price of the gold
u per cent, the small proportion secured
by the Paris bidders, the continued fall
in the sterling exchange rate at Paris,
and the frmness of the sterling exchange
market here all added to the likelihood
that gold might be shipped from New
York to Paris.
The local money market was not af-
fected by these developments, and re-
manned easy, with a very sluggish demand
for funds for stock market purposes.
There was unusually languid interest in
the immediate dividend meeting of United
States Steel directors, which is to oc-
cur tomorrow. This was largely due to
the decline of any expectation of
change in the dividend rate to be de-
clared.
The statistics of earnings for the quar-
ter and of orders on hand are awaited
