MARKET REPORTS
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, March 3.-The stock mar
ket was whipped into selnblance Of ami
nation for a time today but il soon died
out and the proceedings dropped back
into a lethar2ic state with a reaction
from the advance: Covering operations
by shorts were assigned as chief source
of the demand, which was melted by a
succession of incidents of the last day OF
TWO serving to make tn" shorts uneasy.
Today there was printed III the financial
district Il specific statement attributed to
Attorney General Bonapa that there
was no intention on he part Of The gov
eminent authorities to move injunc-
ton against the payment of the South
ern Pacific dividend on shares held in
the Union Pacific control. Tire bears
sought to cover with this development.
Support was still evident in National
Lead and the resumption of mining OPP
erations in the Montana copper camp
continued under discussion with some
stimulating effect on the copper indus
trials. The dying out of the demand af-
ter these operations were affected was
pronounced. The element that prOspers
from habitual trading in stocks was much
depressed with the progress Of attempts
to secure legislation looking TO the linn
itation of such operations to tne actual
transfer of headings fully paid for.
Tho introduction of a bill in Congress
to tax stock transfers at the rate of 80
cents for every 500 share of stock markes
a penalty that would he prohibitive Of
the ordinary marginal operations in
stocks. Reports that this bill had tho
approval of the administration were cur
rent about the Stock Exchange and add
ed to the feeling of gloom for some time
prevalent there over any chance Of re-
vival Of stock market activity. Fears
we've expressed Of a similar measure from
Albany. The agitation in favor Of re-
strfctiJn in dealings in future private
gains on commodities added to the inn
pnrtance of the subject in the estimation
Of stock trading element. The publica-
ton of the annual report of the Pennsvl-
vania Railroad. although it dealt with
conditions of the past, was made the nc-
casion for support of the stock. owing
10 the record achievements of the year
in earnings as well rs in outlay.
Copper was marked down again today
