1t was decidedly light day on the
local market. Neither bonds nor stocks
= showed any activity, and the changes
In prices were not worthy of notice.
| The market Is resting, orders are few,
and far between, speculation is at a
standstil; no one cares to take conces-
sions to make sales, and as a result
the formal making of quotations is
about the chief end of the daily sessions.
Things are almost in midsummer form
on Change.
Railway common sold sparingly at SAN
to s4es, preferred 94A to 941k.

NEW YORK, April T.-The two
hours session was rather interesting,
but was not attended by any great ac-
tivity. The feature was profit-taking
sales in the leaders, Steel common,
Union Pacific, and Reading. to such an
extent that they sustained fractional
declines even while the rest Of the mar

some gains.
1t is an interesting fact that Wall
Street moves on smoothly with renewed
confidence the while the political pot is
