REVIEW OF LAST
WEEKS MARKETS
Financial Review Says Pric-
es Touched Highest Point
Of the Year.

New York, March 26.-Prices Of
stocks during the past week touched
the highest level during the present
year and were not far under the best
prices OF the record Of the latter part
Of last year. The extent Of the adj
n thus covered from the low point
OF the February depression offered at
tractive profit to professional opera
tors and selling pressure both on the
long and short side contributed to oc-
casional reactions. The checks en-
Countered and the rallying power dis
played demonstrated, however, that
the market was still controlled by
forces making for the rise. The pro-
fessional bear element was quick to
retreat.
Hopes Of Improvement.
Actual happenings in the field of
business and industry moderately con-
flrmed the hopes of Improvement on
which the rise was based. Conditions
in the metal trades were an important
influence in strengthening these hopes.
The reported determination of the
steel manufacturers to secure better
prices for their products rather than
larger tonnage would tend to remedy,
1t was thought. the unsatisfactory yield
of profits on present prices. Lower
ore quotations for the coming season
n the recent concessions in freight
rates on Lake Superior ores were ex-
pected to help in this direction. II
was anticipated ais hat the opening
of the spring season would stimulate
the demand for steel products. includ-
Ing railway equipment. The strong
market for copper metal reflected a
sympathetic influence through an ex-
tensive group.
Agricultural News Favorable.
Agricultural news was interpreted
f~avorably to security values. The rapid
marketing of the enormous cotton
crop. favorable soil conditions in the
grain country. and the world-wide
shortage Of last years grain yield were
favorable factors mentioned.
The effective part played by the
large export demand in taking up the
slack herew as shown by the February
foreign trade statement with both ex-
ports n imports at record values for
that month mi the expansion of ex-
ports overlapping that in imports.
Sensitive Market.
The market was sensitive to disturb
Ing reports of fresh tension in the
Balkans. Further borrowing for Ber-
lin o here drew attention to the
Importance of the coming April settle
ments in that market. The week saw
stock market disturbances in Berlin,
Vienna and st. Petersburg, which fac
tors were not without their effect in
other markets. The factors which
made money firmer here came from
the outside rather than from domes-
tic sources.

but fortunately fell away from the en-
CINE.
She was taken home in an auto i'm
mediately and for several days it was
feared that internal injuries might re-

broken. All will be glad to hear that
she is now much easier than at any
previous time and gives promise of as

Mrs. Dalrymple's escape from the
wheels was most fortunate and her
early response to medical treatment
is of course highly pleasing to family

the opinion of attorneys thai Sheriff
Atkins or his successors in office will
not legally have a right to vote in
n elections. except school. until a
city ordinance is changed.
This unusual situation exists by
reason of the ward lines of CARING
ton. Fifth street is the dividing line
between the First and Second wards
and the sheriff's official residence is
located squarely in the street. 1t does
not touch in either ward. The city
ordinance does not provide for such
a situation, in fact when the ordi-
nance was passed no such contin-
gency was ever dreamed of. The new
court house is located at the head of
Fifth street and the sheriff's residence
and jail is directly back of it. The
street was vacated through the court
house block by the council at the time
the new building was started.
