PRICES HIGHER
 IN DAYS MARKET
Favorable News From Mexico
 Aids Stock Exchange

New York, April 1.-Prices were mostly higher during today's short session of the stock exchange, but no very definite conclusions were reached. Trading was narrow, with moderate activity in cOppers, petro- leums, motors and some of the muni- tions. South Porto Rico Sugar was prominent among high priced special ties, rising 1 points to the new record of 214. United States Steel was firm and rails were mainly heavy. The closing was irregular. Strength of Anglo French 5s featured an other wise uncertain bond market.
 New York April l. Wall Street, 1O:30 a. n.-Overnight news from Mexico contributed appreciably to the strength of today's stock market at the opening. Mexican Petroleum was lifted over two points on heavy deai-
 -'s, and American Smelling rose al- most as much. There also fas a fur ther brisk demand for coppers and Crucible Steel at variable gains Mer- Ork Air Brake also rose a point, with irregular strength in motors, equip bents and some unclaSsified special ties South Porto Rico Sugar rose eight to the new high record of 211. Among rails New Haven and Cana dian Pacific reflected, while New York Central made slight recovery.

pected, but consumers will probably have to pay the increase. Railroad labor is making very serious demands upon the companies which if not ma terially moderated will lead to serious i trouble. The transportation lines are only just emerging out of a long per iod of almost ruinous conNitions, and the capital needed for development will not be forthcoming unless the roads are enabled to earn a fair re- turn on the necessary investments. In common fairness, if the government is going to 1ut restraint5 upon. the companies earnings, it will also'have to protect those earnings against some of the demands made by veraggres- sive and unreasonable labor leaders.
 The chief factors of depression in the market for the time being are the crisis in our relations with. Germany and Mexico. The former appears to have again reached an lnflammatory stage, the outcome of which is beyond human foresight at this. time. The Mexican affair is. less grave, but may be the cause of much pern1clouS po1lt- ical activity The presidential cam paign though overshadowed by the war, is running under full headWay, and the efforts to excite public opin- ion and secure votes by unscrupulous politicians seem quite likely to com plicate an already highly sensitive and dangerous situation. These are times, not for stirring up fiction, but for cool and straight thinking by cltl= zens and representatives alike.
 Important French and British loans are pending which will be a factor m the general market. Foreign securl- ties are coming this way in consider able vOlume and this movement tends to temporarily depress values. There is a fair demand for high grade bonds which are relatively firm.
