New York closing
During the week on the stock exchange
business was moderately. active with oc-
casional irregularity, but fairly steady
undertone prevailed, and some shares
made good advances. The coal strike
situation naturally caused much anxiety
but the belief gaining ground that the
conferences now proceeding will lead
to an early solution of the difficulty grad
ually raised home rails, while gilt-edge
securities followed the lead Of consols
which caused quarter OF point In
crease.
Chinese and Mexican securities were
weakened by the reports Of disturbances
in those countries.
The American section was the bright
spot at the end Of the week, chiefly or
the improving outlook in the copper and
steel trades in the United States and
rumors of a modification Of the govern.
ments attitude against trusts. Prices
rose steadily, and at the close were from
to 3 points better than last Saturday.
Speculative business was restricted In
view Of the firmness OF money and the
approach Of the settlement. The country
demands for cash and the revenue col
lections keep the money market bare OF
supplies, while the gold exports and the
cautious attitude Of banks owing to labor
trouble. caused another advance in dis.
count rates.

NEW YORK, March Grading on the
stock exchange during today's two-hour
session was not characterized by any
special feature. The tone at the opening
was rather heavy and irregular. a con-

activity and stiffening of prices under the
lead Of the copper shares, In which ANAL

signs of increasing public interest 1t is
evident that less attention is being paid
to so-called unfavorable factors, both
foreign and domestic, and that Wall
street sees in the many indications of
general trade revival infallible proof that
the pendulum is most likely to swing in
the direction Of optimism.
A further reduction in the number of
idle freight cars was shown for F'ebru-

to less than 5000.
