Attempts were made at times to force a further atreat of the shorts, but the resulting pturns were only temporary. The market shifted back and forth in an uneertain way, closing with few changes in-conseguence. The irregularity of the movement re- flected the conflict of influences brought to bear on the market. News from Washington that the interstate commerce commission’s decision in the freight rate case would be rendered sooner than had been generally expect- ed, and possibly within a month, caus- ed @ brief rise in the railroad list, but the effect was lessened by the excep- tonally poor showing of the largest eastern raflroads for February. New Tork Central's decrease of $3,434,000 in operating revenue for February, and Pennsylvania’s shrinkage in operating income of $2,510,000 were emphatic re- minders of the present position of the railroads. Gould stocks were sirong and aciive on reiteration of the reports circulated vesterday that Rockefeller interests would take over large holdings of Mis- sourl Pacific. Coppers derived some benefit from the export fgures for February, showing record foreign ship- ments of the metal.
