NEW York, March Chopper stocks

mand was broad and embraced most rail-

States Steel common and preferred both
made initial gains. 'as did also the Hill
and Hartman railroad stocks. The vol
une of business was moderately large.
Activity diminished soon after the open
ing. hut prices as whole held. The
strength of the coppers resulted from
the probability of another advance in the
price of the metal, and the rise in the
western transcontinental railroads was
ascribed to advices from various parts
of the west, which pointed to prospects
of an all-round trade revival Another
factor which made for increased cheer
fulness was the remarkable showing of
the country's exports for February.
