COMMERCAL SPECIALLY REPORTED For THE CAT
SKILL SHOWN IN
PROFIT TAKING

NEW YORK. April 2s.-rhe overfowing
speculative confidence which made itself
SO strongly felt in the stock market yes
terday had sensibly subsidized today.
Inc efforts of yesterdays buyers to real
ize their profits found 50 uncomfortable a
demand that prices gave way before the
attempt. The cessation of the important
selling when the decline in prices had gone
but little way led TO an inference Of a
strons undertone for the market, but this
manifestation stopped at a negative i'm
preston. The profit taking was conducted
with skill and care, the market being sus-
tanned By advances at new points.
The difficulty of distributing stocks at
the Level to which prices have attained and
the belief that favorable factors in the
situation have been fairly discounted in
duced caution on the part of those opera
tors. The improvement in the steel
trade was the subject of discussion
and there is no change from the
conviction that the evidence OF
hardening of prices of steel products Is
the most important index Of Improvement
in progress in the trade situation that mas
offered itself for some time. stiIi' the
extent of the improvement in prices was
not so pronounced, according to later re-
ports, as in the earlier versions OF the
situation current yesterday
Arrangements of the May l payments
di dnot lift the call money rate above
per cent and time money was reported also
easier.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value,
Sc, $50, 900.
United States bands were unchanged on
call.
