NEW YORK, March 20.—The so-called spec- faities still occupied the largest share of at- tention in the stock market to-day. Their movements Were not quite so wide nor so | feverishly active as vesterday, but there was | still an eccentric irregularity in this portion of the market. As for the standard ‘stocks that usvally make up the bulk of the trading by reason of their large capitalization and rep- resentative character they were neglected and sluggish as for some time past. There was some heaviness among the anthracite carriers, but the deglines in that group were limited to fractions and good recoveries were made. There was good support in St. Paul without eny explanation for the buying, wiich gave rise to the supposition that the support was part of the plan to facilitate the operations f speculative pools elsewhere in the market. lorado Fuel was again a conspicuous figure d touched vesterdey's high level again at closing with a net gain of 4% after a erratic course during the day. This movement seemed to have a sympathetic effect on Tennessee Coal and Hocking Coal, but the United States Steel stocks continued neglected and heavy as they have been ever since the proposed bond issue which was announced. Bugar was sold early on professed disappoint. ment over the terms of the bill for reducing the Cuban sugar tariff, but later it rose strong- ly and closed with a Tet gain of a poinf Amalgamated Copper continued quite acth and was bought by the shorts to cover, sulting in a net gain of about a point. At- tempts to market some*stocks recently bought at high prices made broad inroads on those prices on very small sales. There was a con- tpicuous demand for Chicago Union Try &nd International Power and the newly listed corn product stocks were advanced more than & point over their first sale price. The local tractions advanced in response to the announce. ment of the favorable action of stockholders in the Brooklyn Transit Company and the Metropolitan Street Raflway Company upon the proposed capital readjustments. The rise of 3% in Long Island seemed to be in sym- pathy with this group. The market closed quite active, but irregular. Growing consid- eration is given to the question of moy Eup- plies between now and the tme of the April Guarterly settiements. The continued of the London money market the large Governmient loan operations looming in the near future there and on the Continent are also subjects for coneideration. The actve apeculative issues In the bond market were inclined to e _basyy, ‘bt but t.h. general list was .rml-‘. vaive, $2,450,000.

NEW YORK, March 20.—The Commerclal Advertiser's London financial telegram says: The stock market was slack and irregular to-day, the settlement begining to-morrow having a tendency to restrict fresh ventures, Kaffirs were cheerful early on reassuring re- ports about the condition of Cecil Rhodes. Later there was a relapse in these shares on the report that Mr. Rhodes was dead, mali- clously circulated to assist options maturing to-morrow. There was a final rally in the ab- sence of a confirmation of the report and on the discovery of the healthy state of the spec- ulative account. Investment shares were heavy on selling by the Continent of consols and foreign bonds in order to provide funds for !he impending new Russian 4 per cent loan of 182,000,000 rubles fn Berlin. Consols were 3-16 down to 93 7-16. _Copper res were flat. Copper broke % to 521, the ton and Rio Tintos were % down to 443. American stocks began good, with Atchison spurting steadily.

Rains in the West and Southwest smashed prices. Corn was weaker on the warm weather and Southwest selling and oats felt panicky for a time. Wheat opened casy on cables and the weather, but was met with fair support for a time. A fair number of buying orders were executed but soon came the slump -in - the Kaneas City and St. Louls were earnestly bearish and prices in those markets | were rapldly sUpping off. At one time St. Louis was 2%c under vesterday's May closing price. The local crowd here ‘who had been taking in some stuff, turned about to sell. Longs lquidated; stop-loss orders were met. causing still further weakness, and before May had stopped on its downward course aimost 1o was lost.
