NEW YORK. March SHARP declines
among stocks more commonly traded in
resulted from heavy selling today on the
Stock exchange. The prominent issues lost
from ] to points and almost all OF them
fell below the low level established last
Friday
The market opened weak and sold off in
the first hour. In the afternoon the SELL
ing movement was extended and there was
further break The market grew fever
ish and fell off steadily to the close, which
day.
Liquidation OF long stocks was IN part
responsible for the downward movement,
although short selling reached large pro-
portions and was potent factor. Stocks
showed little evidence Of support
Nervousness as to the outcome for the
near future was apparent i'm the growth
OF the bearish feeling. Advices that an
extra session OF congress was definitely
expected at Washington, already the most
disturbing element served to increase APP
prehensions of tariff legislation.
The day was not without good news.
The announcement by the head Of the Har-
riman lines that double tracking Of those
roads was to proceed regardless of the
freight rates decision was followed by a
statement OF the Erie directors intention
to eXpend all surplus OF the year over
the fixed charges for improvements.

DISPOSITION.


CATTLE-For a Thursday receipts of cat
tie were quite liberal, but not so large as q
week ago, and the total for the four days
showed a falling off of slightly over 1.OOC
week, and a loss of about 5000 head as
compared with year ago. The quality OF
the cattle here today was very good, that
Is, there were several punches OF better
cattle than have been coming Of late
There was a fair demand for beef steers
but the market was not so brisk as yes
terday, and about all that could be said OF
1t would be to call II as steady with yes
terday, although here and there II was
possible to find a salesman who thought
that he had secured stronger prices. The
quality of the cattle being pretty good, the
top sales show up great deal better than
anything of late. Thus the best cattle here
which were prime, sold up to $40, the
highest price paid on tn;s market since
January when Sc 40 ~as paid
Cows ana heifers were good sellers al
generally steady prices Still the market
as was the case with beef steers, was de-
ficient in snap and activity, the cattle not
selling as readily as yesterday.
Stockers and feeders did not show any
material change, the offerings generally
selling in about the same notohes as yes
terday.
1t might be added that the market on kill
ing cattle is generally 15q25c higher than
the low point last week.

Government Work.

Government WORK.
w. c. Sunderland is home from six
weeks voyage among the West Indies and
along the coast of South America He
says he has had enough Of travel for the
present, but that the call to go to some
out Oft he-way part of the world comes
when least expected.
On the trip south he stopped at Havana,
Porto Rico, Jamaica, Trinidad and
Venezuela. Returning he crossed the 18th
mus of Panama from Colon to Panama and
saw the entire length of the Panama canal
nearing completion. He was on a special
train that stopped at all interesting points
along the big ditch. The big locks, he
says, are practically completed. The
Culebra cut is widening and deepening at
the rate Of 5000 carloads OF dirt a day.
So gigantic is this work that to the aver
age mind it seems an impossible task
Sanitary conditions In the canal zone. Mn
Sunderland says, are well nigh perfect.
The death rate there is less than in most
of our cities. A ceaseless warfare Is
waged against mosquitoes and all sluggish
streams are flooded with petroleum
Engineers with whom Mr.. Sunderland
talked declare ships will be running from
the Atlantic TO the Pacific in two years,
1913, instead of 1915, planned.
One of the great dams, 5000 feet long,
800 feet thick and 100 feet high, built OF

CHICAGO, March 2.--Uneasy shorts in a

most of the time today. There was also
considerable bull campaigning by a NUM-

Speculative buying of wheat was almost
entirely on local account. There was
much taking of profit by longs during the
swells. Not little selling was done, too,
by few big shorts who appeared anxious

the fact that Argentina shipments were
