The Prohibition Wave.

The swiftness with which the nation
vide prohibition sweep came was not
foreseen a year ago, and in another
year the country will be dry unless the
unforeseen occurs. Because Of the tre-

efforts waged to bring about this re-
suit, and therefore publish on another

struggle. IT is story of battle
marked By many dramatic incidents.

FINANCES AND MARKETS

NEW YORK. March 26.-The same factors and developments which mili- tated against a continuance of the for ward movement on the stock exchange early in the week were operative again during today's heavy session, though in lesser degree.
 United States Steels sole outward manifestation of this prospect was a rally of 1 1s points from its low of the forenoon, but only fraction of the rebound remained at the end, the entire list selling off on fairly large offerings of rails, Canadian Pacific yielding al most points.
 As a whole, thme market may be summarized by the statement that in yestment shares were heavy when they moved at all. while early gains in sec- ondary metals, oils and the shippings were largely dissipated later, per cent rates for call loans adding to the unsettlement at the close. Sales amounted to 775,000 shares
 Every division of the bond market was heavy or weak, Liberty fourth 4As making q new minimum at S934S. foreign issues losing fractions to a point, and the general domestic list shading. Total sales, par value, s15,- 250.000. old United States coupon and registered 4s were variably higher on call.

OIL STOCKS RISE
IN CURB MARKET
Standard Issues Jump to New
Highs in Active Trading
Industrials Steady.

Strength and activity in the Standard
Oil subsidiaries was again the outstand-
ing feature in curb trading yesterday.
New high records again were recorded
in several issues. Prairie Oil and Gas
anc Standard OIL of New Jersey were
this most active. The Independent oil
shares were IN better demand. especially
Royal Dutch Shell Petroleum, which ad-
vanced several points. Houston Oil was
strong carly but lost the greater part OF
its gain.
Trading in the Industrial section was
less active, with many cash transactions
being made. The general tone. however.
was steady at the close. The war stocks
were better supposted and scored small
increases from Mondays closing levels,
The motor shares were dull and little
changed. The specislties were more ac-
tive and firm.
Bond dealings were on a smaller scale
with advances generally being shown.
The Russian Governments did better, i'm
proving several points.

The cotton market was nervous and
irregular yesterday, but early losses
were recovered. with the close strong
at net advance OF 10 to so points
Trading was fairly active all day. but
volume OF business showed a tendency
to taper of after tho early selling

OF from 2S10 to 1880. rallied to $3.50
and closed at 2S.25, against 27.s5, the
closing price Of Monday.
Reports that banking interests were
not optimistic concerning tho outlook
for cotton exports owing to apprehen-
sions OF difficulty In financing foreign
purchases should Government guarantee
be terminated seemed to attract con-
siderable attention during tho early
trading.
Some stop orders were uncovered ON
the decline. which carried the active
months 80 to 40 points net lower, and
after the execution the market rallied
on covering. There was another set
back during the middle of tho day
owing to the continued circulation of
tho January notices, which are esti-
mated at 1000 bales. II was reported
later that Japanese interests were TAX
ing up the cotton and the late rally was
promoted BY tho larger exports for the
day.
