DEMAND OF THE SHORTS
EMBARRASSMENT OF TRADERS
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. April 29.-The general
character of the transactions in securities
today suggested to experienced observers
of market conditions, that there was In
progress a distribution of stocks upon
large scale, but so great was the contin-
ued demand for the short account that
such liquidation as was conducted mace
little impression upon prices
Soon after the opening of business the
suspension of another firm with large
commitments upon the short size OF 'he
account was announced. and the closing
out of the firms contract led to rapid ao-
vances in a number of securities, notably
in Reading.
With this additional reminder OF the
Insecurity of the position of the snort &C.
count there was further calling IN OF
loaned out stocks, which added to the en-
barrassment of traders with bearish COM
mitments.
Such selling as was conducted appeared
to reflect nothing more than the natural
Willingness of operators for rise to real
ize some portion of the handsome pronts
which have accrued by reason of the re-
CENT advance In the market. and at all
events there was little in the days news
calculated to incfte liquidation OF diner
ent character.
q. S. Steel Statement.
The quarterly statement of the United
States steel corporation, published after
the close of business yesterday. showed
net earnings considerably in excess OF the
average of the estimates recently IN cir
culation. United States Steel common
was however exceptionally heavy at the
opening of business. although It subse-
Quently recovered the whole of its Initial
decline.
The Industrial and miscellaneous shares

advances scored in all the railway equip
ment shares. National Lead, American
Sn,elting and Amalgamated Copper.

Metropoutan stocks were strong. The
marlborough Metropolitan Al per cent
bonds. on the other hand. broke very
sharply in the early part Of the day. later
resaining the greater portion of their de-
cline.
Extensive Railway Advances.
Trading In the railway shares list was
conducted upon a very active scale and
embraced Q large number of issues. Ex-
tensive advances In that quarter were
scored by Baltimore and Ohio. Atchison
and Southern Pacific. There was, how
ever. little or nothing of novelty to be
cited in connection with the transactions
in any of the stocks mentioned.
Money market circumstances were quite
unaffected by the engagement OF 2.500.OOO
a.u,tional gold for export.
The London stock market was firm In
all of Its various departments. and foreign
houses were buyers here to the extent
OF 1900 or 20, 600 shares.
Aside from the noted wide fluctuations
in marlborough Metropolitan ~ per
cents. the bond market was rather fea-
tureless and discussion was mainly taken
up with estimates with regard to the ex-
pected announcement of the subscriptions
10 the Pennsylvania per cent bonds.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The traction company securities at the
meeting today of the stock exchange
showed the strength which has been char
acteristic of them in recent days. 1t was
thought by some brokers. however. that
the days trading would result in q sud-
den squirt in the figures.
This belief was based upon the dis
closure which was made in the course
of the debate in the Senate yesterday as
to the existence of heretofore unknown
and extremely 'valua BILE asset of the COM
panies 1t was declared by one OF the
senators that no legislation relating to
street railways In the District could be
enacted by Congress unless 1t first had
the o. X Of the railway companies.
AS the representatives OF the ROADS as
well as a large number of the stockhold-
ers have BEEN fyuratively speaking,
sweating for some months past in appre-
hension of Congress passing some law In
furious to the interests Of the property,
such a declaration was regarded as reas-
surfing, and would have been doubly well
coined several weeks, ago, so that all In
terested parties could have felt that what
was talked OF in Congress really meant
nothing.
Gas stock also continued on its upward
course, and better prices were given for 1t
than was the case yesterday and the buy
ers were willing to take more on the same
terms The holders of the stock were as
sured there were only two buyers In the
market and that they had better take the
market while they could.
The range of tOday's selling was from
81 to 67ss while yesterday it was from
661z to 66a4.
