After Irregular Session the Market
Receivers and Closes Brisk-Up-
ward Movement Not Ended.
D. THolIAs G. sHoTWELL.

BY TAO1lAS u SHUT " EbA'
New York. April ls.-After session
OF considerable irreguhrity. the stock
market made a brisk recovery in the last
hour. It closed streng and active about
q point above the low figures, and nearly
that much under the final prices Of the
previous day. The fact that net losses
were shown at the close was not so I'M
portsnt as the fact that the buying was
for the strongest interests. 1t was evi-
dent from the way the market acted that
the upward movement is not ended.
Aside from the necessity OF some Of
further reaction, the market was infiu-
enced most by the Mexican affair. The
belief is growing that Japan is fomenting
trouble in Mexico in the hope OF drawing
the United States into a struggle for SUI
premacy in the Pacific before the Pan
ANA Canal is completed.
New York Central reached a new high
record by crossing rs. and American
Cam reached up to 35a. a new record.
Amalgamated Copper went point above
the price Of Monday II was not long
before the heavy professional selling be-
gan to make an impression. Can declined
to S1H and Central TO III. Steel fell rap
idly two points, and Amalgamated more
than two. The market became dull at
the low figures, and the first activity
Was the signal for the advance. Conf
dence did not seem to be impaired
The crop situation was given as the
cause Of the confidence. and politics was
assigned to a second place. The foreign
ers, however. were reported late in the
day as worried over an American poll
tics, with a disposition growing TO sell.
The sharp rise in cotton was caused
largely by the heavy rains in the Eastern
belt with threats Of frost in Texas and
Oklahoma.
Copper Ia Strong.
Copper shares were strong late in the
day when il became known that the
Amalgamated directors had decided to
advance the dividend rate to 4 per cent.
Utah worked higher on dividend expecta-
tons that are justified by the earnings.
Copper metal has a genuine market at
IS cents a pound. or about cent higher
than the level agreed upon last summer
when the Copper Trust was formed in
Europe The mines will increase the
output as fast as possible to bring the
price down q half cent At that level
the copper companies will be making
profits justifying much larger dividends,
and a long campaign toward higher
prices is expected in the shares Of all
producers.
Marconi shares, that have been a sting
ing disgrace to the stock market ever
since they made their appearance, are
active again. The surprising advance the
last few days represents an attempt to
make money out of tho Titanic disaster.
