Wall Street breads Extra Session of Congress-
LITTLE LIFE TO STOCK MARKET, BUT
PRICES WERE FIRMER, WITH
EXCEPTIONS.

NEW YORK, March 1.-Wall Street
traders are making the best of a de-
batable situation. They want to trade,
they will trade, and they will scalp
profits, if possible, or take small losses,
with the result that the market dis
plays strength and weakness more or
less often, and is rarely permitted to
make very radical changes either way.
The Street takes a very satisfactory
view of ordinary influences. Rate de-
cision effects have all passed away; the
dread of the coming Supreme Court
decision is being mitigated by the long
period of meditation on the matter, and
the belief that the justices are endeav-
oring to find and will offer remedy for
any points at issue that may be suf
ficiently drastic as to need a treatment
in order to make the dose palatable to
business interests. Business conditions
are improving so steadily and in such
satisfactory manner that this end of the
situation is causing nothing but Gratiti
cation.
It is the possibility of an extra ses-
sion that Is the nub of the situation to-
day. The market went up after the
opening, on the compromise features of
the gentlemen's agreement in the Sen
ate, promising speedy action on the
main points at issue in the proposed
legislation that caused the deadlock and
11libuster. Then it went back on profit
taking, which seems to meet every i'm
provcment. no matter how slight, and
on the later reports that an extra SeS-
sion was still a probability. The story
on the Street is that the Morgan house
has given it out that an extra session
Of Congress would be more dangerous
with Democratic threats of investiEa-
ton, revising, and tearing things wide
open, than the probable decision of the
Supreme Court i'm the trust ca ses.

was the sale of 10000 shares of the
