The outstanding feature of yester-
tive, steadiness throughout the session
in the face OF pessimistic strike news
from Great Britain. Until the last half
hour the declines were unimportant and
showed little evidence Of any aggres-
sive selling pressure, probably explained
by the presence Of a considerable short
interest which has developed in the last
few days since the strike news became
factor More selling developed near
the close than at amy time during the
day, and for time prices broke sharply
and showed net declines 10 about -
points less than their preceding close,

More Interest in Mexican..

After lull of several weeks little
more interest is being shown in Mexi-
can securities again. and there is evil
dence of good buying in Mexican IS
and As. The Mexican Government As
of 1904 and the Mexican Government 5s
of 1899 are listed on the big board, but
the Mexican Treasury 6s of 1913 and
the Mexican internal 3s and 5s are only
traded in over the counter. The debt
of the Mexican Government, external
and internal. including unpaid interest,
bonded indebtedness of Mexican States
and cities and guaranteed bonds OF the
National Railways of Mexico. is only
about sSJ0.00o.000 in United States gold
dollars. Mexicos per capita national
public debt charge amounts to about
81 year. and that of Argentina is
more than 81. that of Belgium about
slo and that OF Canada about $50. Incl
dentally the belief that as soon as the
Foreign Relations Committee has
cleaned UP the Colombia treaty and the
German peace treaty. 1t will immedi-
ately tackle the Mexican situation is
spreading.

TRADE REVIVAL LACKS :
NEEDED UNIFORMITY
Spottiness Continues, Say
Business Experts.

The weekly trade reviews find the
business situation Is such as TO make
a broad Characterization OF conditions
difficult IL not impossible. The low rate
OF iron and steel output tends TO over
shadow the moderate increase in manu-
featuring in certain other directions.
Revival is lacking in uniformity. A
broadening OF retail trade !n some quar-
ters is a hopeful indication. says Dun'S
Reuieic, bat part nf IL is due 10 sea-
sonal influences, or To special price in
weather are not favorable TO regularity
Of distribution.
Brddstreets says that basic condi-
tions contain enough signs Of improve
ment TO rob general trade and industry
of some Of their hitherto rather de-
pressing atmosphere.
Tor one thing" continues Brad
streets, the early crop situation seems
to contain elements OF strength in the
production line, If not in prices. The
winter wheat crop has not been hurt
by recent cold wea ther, and Govern
ment estimates point TO that exceptional
occurrence. a gain in condition over the
winter. with minimum of winter kill
ing and tentative estimates of yield only
three times exceeded.
"The money situation too turns a
slightly brighter side to the view. Fed
eral Bank reserve ratios have gained
heavily in recent weeks, the result OF
increased gold supply from abroad, psy-
ments OF long delayed sums TO the rail-
roads by the Government and return Of
some money from the West.
Call loan rates for a day this week
dipped TO the lowest levels In two years.
and outside money is reported Offering
stin lower. Time money is also easier.
and the acceptance market here and at
leading Western markets is reported
easier on stronger buying by banks.

RAW SUGAR SUPPLY UKUWS.
Federal Says Cuban Receipts Are
Away Above shipments.

An interesting supply of raw sugars is
reported by the Federal Sugar Refining
Company, which asserts that Cuban
raws. outside Of those under control Of
the Cuban Sugar Finance Commission,
as Well as Porto Ricos, Neaezueias,
Perus, Brazils, san Doniingos and
Philippines. have been sold or offered
for sale at the duty paid equivalent OF
602 cents. The Commissions quotation
il the duty paid equivalent OF 6.27 cents.
This company says further Receipts
Of raw sugar at the shipping ports in
Cuba continue in excess Of shipments,
and the stock keeps steadily piling up,
50 that on April 2 there were Sal ,210
tons on hand, Of which 67,S72 tons are

quantity Of sugar from a previous cam
paign still on hand at this late date
