Stocks and Bonds.

NEW YORK, March 11.-Reac-
tionary tendencies OF the previous
session were lacking in today's stock
market, prices showing a firm under
tone on moderate dealings. The sue

sale. additional gold import from
Japan, with prospects of further
drafts upon Britain's gold stores in
Canada. were factors of sentimental
value.
Exchange markets took on a more
variable tone, sterling on London
being easier. while greater firmness
was shown in remittances to the con-
tinent. This contrary was attributed
to sales of the new Swiss govern
mcnt notes and the new German war
notes. for both of which an increased
demand was manifested.
