April 1.—The prodigious vol- ume of dealings in the United States Steel | securities to-day brought the aggregate sales of all stocks on the exchange within measure- | able distance of the largest dealings on record for a eingle & The largest single day’s nsactions were those on January 7 of this ar when the aggregate sales reached 2,127,505, of to-day was 1,838,800, which has been only excceded by {he record day. The large part plaved by the United States Steel | stocks even in such a broad and active market | as that of to-day is indicated by the sales of | the common and preferred, those of United States Steel amounting to 26,100 and the pre- forred 165,000 shares, or for both 434,900 shares, Which was 23 per cert of the total dealings. It is very evident that the activity of the United States Steel corporation stocks on the exchange with their bulky capitalization of 71000000 shares, according to to-day’s amended certificate of imcorporation, is to constitute a new era in the volume of dealings of the in- dividual stocks. 4 Single commission houses to-day did a suf- ficient business in these stocks alone to real- jze handsome fortune for the brokerage commission on their operations. One house was credited with selling upward of 100,000 shares of United States Steel preferred, and | various other houses between 50,000 and 100,000 of either one or the other of the stocks. The Tesources required for the support of @ stock in which the dealings are on such a scale | stagger the imagination. But the day's event proved that the powerful syndicate back | of these sccuritics was equal to the task. It fe current beller that the market management The total of the stocks is under the care of the most congpicuous and widely &nown professional operator in the strecl. The offerings which were hurled on the market fairly staggered the prices Yor a period, but they were rallied nnd moved upward through the avalanche, sthe common rising 2% and closing at the top while the preferred rose an extreme 1) and closed within % of the top. The course of these stocks had a large influence on the ulti- mate movement of the whole stock market. There were points of great strength here and there in the early deslings, but the profit-tak- ing gales were on an enormous scale and the movement of prices highly jrregular and con- flicting_until past the moon hour. Many of the opening advances were about wiped out | before the final outburst which carried prices 1o the highest of the day. A final reaiizing movement carried the most active stocks down again from 1 io 2 poinis and made the clos- | ing very frregular. Rock Isiand was a feature all day in spite of denials of reported consoli- dation with the Atchison system and of other | rumors et afloat to mccount for the move. | ment in the stock. A lurge part of the speeu- Jation was apparently based on the disparity hetween its prices and thas of the other lead- ing. grangers which have had such tremend- ous advences in the last few months. The extreme rise in the stock was 41: and the net | Fain four points. St Paul Tt end became quite buovant, rising S%. but fclling hack 1% on the recction. Union Pacific | aga report stocks light and & strong | Fas Sery actively Gealt in at an extreme rise of 214, Money market conditions were entirely ig- noreq in the eager speculative spirit. Although Government internal disbursements are ex- pected to yield over $3,000,000 to the money market to-morrow, the absorption of cash by the Sub-Tfeasury on routine operations con- tinues very large. Sterling exchange advanced a fraction fo the gold export point to-day on the large demand, from stock houses, Who are buying American stocks abroad. After the stock market had closed a $500,000 gold shipment | to Europe for to-morrow was announced and more is expected to go during the week. The toue of the money market was distinctly barder, but not the slightest effect was pro- duced on the speculation. Conjecture was at a loss to account for the heavy concentrated eelling of the United Staes Steel stocks, but there was a suggestion that it was due to the purchase of an interest amounting to several million dollars ‘which the syndicate under- writers had agreed to sell, but had decided to pass through the open market. The market was not active relatively as the stock market, but business was small and the movement of prices irregular. Total sales, $6,035,000, United States 3s and new 4s declined i per cent on the last cail. NEW YORK STOCK LIST. Shares Closing Sold. Stock— Bid. 54,100 Atchison 5,500 Atchison prefd Baltimore & Ohio.

NEW YORK, April 1.—The Commercial Ad- vertiser's London financial cablegram says: The stock market here was only moderately active to-day, and the business done was mainly in the American department. The tone of the general market was irregular. American stocks were supported in special- tles, particularly the Atchison, Union Pacific issues and St. Paul. London bought Atchisons on the report that it had acquired Rock Island and would declare to-morrow a divi- dend of 13 per cent on the common stock. The market closed at the top. The call money rate was 3% per cent; bills, 3% per cent. The market has repald to the bank &£3,000,000, which i -about one-quarter of the amount borrowed.

T ==, i Chicago Grain Market. | *- ;!- CHICAGO, April 1L.—The advancing tendency of the corn market which has been shown in an aggressive manner in the past few days received a sharp check, but broke only agter a desperate resistance. May opened with sell- ers all the way from 44lc to 45c, the influ- ences aside from the desire from profits being favorable weather, liberal receipts, including a good proportion of contract corn and indiffer- ent cables. Philips bought liberally and was trailed by country interests as usual. This support held the market all forenoon against the liquidating pressure. May reacted from 44c to 44izc, and held close under that figure until noon, Long corn was then offered with great freedom, May dropping to 43%c, closing weak, 1@1%c under Saturday at 43iic. The withdrawal of the corn support, which has been the mainstay of wheat bulls for | some time, had a serious effect on that nat- | urally bearish market. May wheat opened | %@k lower at T5%75%c under the influence of weak cables, decidedly bearish world's statistics, liberal receipts and good weather. Buying by a corn bull caused 2n early rally to 75%c. For a time the market ruled stag- nant, but when corn broke and the visible supply showed an increase, the market broke {o THe. Tho close was weak, May 13c lower at Tasie. Oats were active, but erratic, and in the end bowed to the corn influence, May closed 5%@%c lower at Z%@36%e. Provisions remained firm in the face of weak- ness i nelghboring pits on light hog receipts and higher prices at the yards., May pork closed 10c over Saturday and ribs and lard e higher each.

New York Metal Market. . NEW YORK, April 1.—There was a better feeling obtained for speltes in the local metal market to-day. Prices advanced about 5 points in face of a loss of 25 64 for that metal in London, on light export inquiry and a lack of sellers. The close was firm at $3 90@3 9. The exports of copper for the month of March was 6624 tons, thus indjcating a heavy decrease for the first quarter of this year, the exports for the latter being only 24,050 tons, against 44,679 last year. The local copper mar- ket was dull but steady at about unc d prices on the basis of $17 for lake and $16 62 for casting. At London a decline of s 3d was seported; spot closed at £6 and futures at £6) In London tin was 125 6d lower The local market dropped about 50 points in sympathy with the loss abroad, but traders exhibited little disposition to do busincss at any figure. The close was quiet but firm at $26@26 50. The visible supply of tin increased 1040 tons dur- ing the past month. Lead was without quot- able change and very dull. Iron, while dis- playing a steady undertone, was {nactive and prices were more or less nominal on old basis. Glasgow iron warrants closed at oos 1d and Middlesboro at 4ds 9d. New York Cotton Market.
