THE CARNIVAL.

The seat sale for the carnival has
started out big and the participants
will no doubt be greeted by crowd
ed house this evening.
Everything is in good order and a
first class production IS assured. The
electricians have been working over
time OH the electrical effects, so these
features are assured. This will I'M
doubtedly be as deliberately staged
entertainment as have ever been Civ.
en- by local talent in Bismarck, and
two big audiences is hoped for by
the ladies of the Civic league.

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, March 12.-The rather aimless
drift Of prices of stocks turned upward today
after an uncertain period of backing and fill
ing Dealings expanded also slightly over yes
terday's low level for the year. The peager
speculation centered in Reading and was based
apparently on the labor outlook. The reJec-
tlon by the miners representatives OF the
counter proposition Of the anthracite opera
tors is accepted with professed equanimity by
holders of Reading stocks. The prospect OF
shut down of mining operations seems to be
regarded not unfavorably as giving opportun-
ity to dispose of an accumulated surplus OF
coal and to reduce the interest charges Tor
carrying this surplus. This is an argument
advanced by buyers of stock, and there is an
undercurrent of belief that there will be no
strike and this also is factor In modify
ing the influence of the news from the con-
ference.
Some Of the buying Of Reading was SUP
posed to come from uncovered shorts. Deal
ings In the stock continue to be affected more
or less by the expectation OF an early decision
in the commodities test case The movement
in the general list was little more than one OF
sympathy with that in Reading. There is
some fear that the tariff bill when 1t comes
from the committee next week may contain
some surprises that will prove dsasreeable to
those interested in OF the industries
affected The broad intimaton Of probable
abolition of the duty on iron ore weakened
the certificates of participating In the iron
and ore properties of the Great Northern rail-
way today, Estimates OF the week s currency
movement was followed by languid interest,
in view of the continued pressure Of funds for
lending. Announcement was made OF further
shipments OF gold coin in London on Sat
urday and some falling Off In the net receipts
the interior currency movement was re-
ported leaving them apparently insufficient
to offset the loss on account of gold exports.
The decline in bank cash thus indicated was
viewed with entire indifference. The price OF
copper was marked down again at the New
York metal exchange and receded also in the
London market. The foreign markets re-
ported dull trading as well as here. but some

NEW YORK March 12.-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say;
"Milder weather will stimulate spring safes
but foreign trade continues quiet. Transac-
tions are better in the west than In the east,
but everywhere are lacking the desired ami
nation Some progress toward more settled
Conditions is noted in iron and steel. In wire
products orders are somewhat heavier
''Western distributors OF dry goods report
satisfactory business, but conditions are less
satisfactory in the coal and iron sections of
theI middle west and among local jobbers
'.In the wooden division there is disposi-
tion on the part of the cothiers to send
saIesmen on the road unusually early.
"I1xtreme dullness prevails in the hide and
leather markets. uncertainty regarding the
tariff legislation is affecting hides and having
a deterrent effct on businss. Few sales or any
variety of leather are being made, and these
are only for small quantities. to supply imme-
diate wants of buyers.

cHIcEGo, March 12..-Priees scored an ad-
vance of over &c for the day. This advance
coming on top of the strong upturn IN prices
vesterday marks a decided increase in buying
force in this trade the past twenty-four hours.
The market today was not characterlzeu py
any great excitement, except possibly on nrst
trades, which were 1c or more over the close
of Yesterday. There some buying py the
bull leaders early. Shorts were pusy COW
ering on each fresh advance all day lons:
There is fresh investment buying on the part
of the public There very little reaction
at any time from the first to the last. Ihere
were many good reasons for the strength ana
higher market. The foreign situation Is de-
veloping fresh strength. Liverpool is 4Snl?sc
higher and Berlin up 1lsc. Argentine snip
ments were under the estimate ana more than
2 O0o 900 under the same week last year. All
late advices from that quarter indlcate an
early falling off in the shipments. Dulutn
and Winnipeg confirmed good export inquiry
early in the day, and before the close the
seaboard reported export sales of 81 boatloads.
Tips from the growing crop are OF the best
and any crop damage added to present pulllSh
conditions might force this July wheat up
stronger and higher than yet recorded on the
crop There is less talk of manipulation and
the trade and the public appear to be study
ing the legitimate conditions and buying
wheat
There was a gain of about half cent on early
trades. followed by little reaction, and the
last prices were close to the best figures.
Cash corn prices were about lc higher. II
country retains its bullish attitude and the
receipts get smaller there is no use expecting
much reaction in prices for the present
Oats prices made only moderate gain for I'll the
day The sample market was hc higher. The
trade is holding right in line with corn.
Careful investors taking on provisions every
time the market had good dip ana TINS
looks like a good lead to follow, as the
packers will favor higher prices for dlstribu-
tion of the stocks on hand.
