New York, April 3.—Although prices of standard stocks yielded but little today, the reactionary tendency of the early week became more pronounced and dealings fell to the smallest total recorded in any full day for more than & fortnight. Virtually all the activity was in the first hour, another chara teristic wherein today's session was not unlike that of the days ijmmedi- ately preceding. The trading clen t inclined decidedly towards the side, this attitude finding its sure reflection on the relative heaviness of United States Steel, Union Pacific, and Reading, with some pressure up- on the coppers. On the other hand, a number of advances were registered but for the most part they occurred m issuee which bave little or no public | following. Declines far outnumbered gains at | | the opening, which may have been due | ito London's fallure to transmit the { usual average of better prices. Ca- |nadian Pacific was the most conspic- uous exception, opening here with a gain of more then two points as {against its rise of almost three points ,m London. 'The strength of this stock | Y“’afl used as an excuse to advance Erle on the now famillar rumor of a Canadian Pacific-Erle traffic alllance. ,‘lea\rlse Norfolk & Western's further |%ain was made the occasion of a re—[ | vival of the report that ‘“Panhadle,” one of the Pennsylvania subsidiaries, | 18 to guarantee a six per cent, divi-| dend on Norfolk. A brigk movement | |in Wabash preferred and the four | per cent, bonds furnished a basis for rumors that Lackawanna Interests were buying those issues for control. Trading in the specialties was more clrcumscribed than usual with some | strength in General Hlectric. A rise | {in call money to 3 1-4 per cent. in the early afternoon induced more seliing of the speculative favorites, but the «market assumed an even tone in the last hour, under the lead of the Steel shares. Aotivity increaged a trifie and demand broadened; but the movement was of brief duration, Amal u4maLad Copper, American Smelting, Union® | Pacific and Lehigh Valley falling to lowest prices of the day with a fur- ther rise in call money to four per cent, There was some recovery from | this level just before the close with a | spurt in American Can common and | preferred, bcth of which efllabnshed high records. The sentiment of the ant‘hradte» miners which seemed to favor a pro- | i tracted shutdown was a factor nm‘ |made for discouragement. News con- | | cerning the steel trade was conflicting, | reports of an arrest in some manu- | facturing districts being nm!rnllzcd, by others that suggested increased | demand at Pittsburg, A number of | large orders by the raflroads are in | process of negotiation but thess, it is thought, may be held ir abeyance until prices become more stable, | The only new financing announced’ | today was that of the Erie road, w’hlch has received permission to sell $10,- 400,000 of three-year § per cent, notes. A compilation of the new securities issued in the firet quarter of the cur- rent year shcws thai the railroads put out a smaller amount of notes than in the same quarter of 1911, whils the | tpdustrial companies imrausd their eulput bv over $35,000,000, Total eof- fexinn of bonds, notes and stocks for the past quarier aggregate §759,000,000 —an increase of $162,600,000 pver last year, | The bond market rulsd firm with no | notable feature other than the strength in ‘Wabash fours and some speculative lasues.

Of ‘the individoml point scorers and bagket phocters on the team, Captain Coyl.led and had an able teammate in Revell at the other forward position. Stanley, who played center, was a fast performer in this position, always in the game, and a valuable factor In the team play, which was a feature of their campaign. For a husky pair of active and hard working guards, who have given their opponents no rest, it would be hard to beat Jackson and Manager Townsend, the former also having a | fine eye for the basket, with Townsend a considerable point contributor ag, well. Though playing in few games, | Robinson demonstraigd his worth whenever called upon to substitute. For some of the final the efficiency and driving spirit of th eteam was pol- ished up by the valuable coaching giv- en by Joseph J.
