WALL STREET NEWS
Can, Canadian Pacific, New York
Central, and Steel Were Prom
inent in Strong Market.
Nv THoMAs G. sHOTwELL.

New York. April 15.-Action Of 'he
stock market to-day removed all doubt
as to how the financial world looks on
the fight Of the politicians.
Opening quietly at about the level OF
Saturdays close the market gathered
force as the session progressed and new
high records were made in a buoyant
advance The leaders were issues OF
can Can, Canadian Pacific, New York
Central, and Steel were conspicuous. The
close was strong with many material
net gains.
OF the favorable influences the most
important was a report from high quar-
tiers that the fifty railroads concerned
in the demand by the locomotive engi-
neers for higher wages had de-
cided to offer to the engineers one
half OF the advance asked for at once.
The other half is to be offered on con-
dition that the men join in an applica-
ton for an advance Of freight rates, the
second half asked to be given when the
rates are advanced. It is believed that
the joint demand thus made win insure
better rates.
Those patriots who have been selling
stocks short the last week because they
believed the advance was based on heavy
selling. The shorts in Can got a Sc
we're drubbing. ThA facts in regard to
Can are as published in this oity
umn more than two weeks ago They
are earning over 100000 a year. This
insures per cent dividend on the
preferred. In December they will de-
clare full z per cent rate on the pre-
ferred, with 2 per cent extra for the
quarter, on account of the accumulation
of g per cent that stands to the credit
Of the preferred. They believe that they
can keep up this payment Of Is per cent
on the preferred stock until the accumu-
lation is all wiped out. Believing so, they
are buying the preferred and common
in equal number of shares and putting
IL away for three-year campaign. This
can be dore easily, because the dividend
on the preferred will more than carry
both certificates. And In the face of
that information the professionals are
fighting the advance.
Rumors were heard of a new stock
issue by Canadian Pacific. and these
were promptly denied. Canadian Pacifics
advance is justified on account of its
remarkably large earnings, but the bill
in Congress to prevent use of the Pan
anna Canal by ships owned by American
railroads should be worth at least $50 a
share to Canadian Pacific stockholders.
In the late trading copper stocks were
brought to the front, where they deserve
to be if a sound trade condition counts
for anything. The copper stocks have
been dull for a few days, not because
they were too high, but because they
had been advancing too rapidly. The
