NEW YORK sAocks.

New York, March 10.-Stocks held close to the prevailing level of the last few days through todag's session. 1t was another dull day, with little news except the monthly report of the United States Steel Corporations un filled tonnage.
 In some moderately active stocks, such as Baltimore and Ohio, Denver and Rio Grande common, Louisville and Nashville, and Western Union, there was not a sale during the ses- sion. There was again a noticeable absence of large selling orders, n condition which has been so general of late as to indicate that there is almost no pressure to liquidate.
 The Canadian stocks and Missouri Pacific were the strongest in the list Canadian Pacific was strong all day, rising to new high record.

FINE SHOW At

MAKE A GREAT HIT AT THEIR
MATINEE PERFORMANCE.

John W. Vogel's Big City Mlnstrels
are billed for performance at the
Grand Opera House tonight. These
same mirth makers gave fine matt
nee performance. The setting Is the
finest ever seen hero In minstrel
show. All OF the end men are as wit
ty as they can be and the silver. toned
singers made strong impression on
the good sized audience that heard
them. 1t Is not too much to say that
n majority that saw the show this
afternoon will be seen again tonight
listening to the good things that Mr..
Vogers men have for them.
The electrical effects on the stage
are magnificent. In stage settings
there is not minstrel show in the
country that is the equal OF Yoge.s
and the company OF singers and fun
makers even surpass the mechanical
effects produced by the employment
of the finest color schemes With bril-.
liant or mellowed lights.
