New York. April 13.-Consdering
what it was up against in the way of
upsetting influences, today's stock mar
ket gave a very good account Of itself
! Wall street has often spoken of sweet
cncrs in loans, but today the market
itself reflected the swcetening effect on
security trading of the strength and ac-
tivity in the sugar stocks. This group
not only supplied a powerful bulwark
to the general list, but was practically
the backbone of the market. The re-
markablc sugar trade conditions and the
steady elevation of the group of sugar
shares over the last two weeks appar-
emily attracted widespread attention
to manipulate influences, naturally
the attention of the trading clC-
mcnt was diverted to this division of
the market When the rest of the list
was under pressure, or without decided
trend, as n result Of the unrest created
! by the growth of the railroad strike and
uncertainty aS to the money market con
ditions, these sugar stocks surgcd up
ward with gains of . to 20 points, at
the same time establishing new tops
for many in the current movement and
new high records for others.
The market world did its best to for
get the extension of the labor troubles
and cOmfOrted itself with the hope that
the worst Of the tie-up had been seen.
They still had the late furry in call
money yesterday to contend with and
naturally n great deal of caution was
manifested until the opening of the call
loan market. The renewal rate was
fixed at I per cent against yesterdays Il
per cent renewal and final rate of 10
per cent. There was fear of another
pinch by reason of the general knowledge
, that the time was drawing near for the
announcement of the financing plans OF
the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific.
.AtchisOn and Central Railroad of New
Jersey. But there seemed to be fair
supply at per cent. while foreign
exchange was much steadier. OffSctting
! this. however, was the weakness of the
/ Liberty bonds and Victory notes which
established new low records. The
strength of the sugar stocks, however
/ held the head of the market to the wind
ward. In addition to sugars, various
issues, which rumor associated witt
impending stock dividends. were takel
