MONDAY, March 26, While strong interests bought just enough stocks to give the market a! good tone, coal strike rumors—some| good and some bad—floated In and out of the Stook Exchange, creating an un-| settled feeling. Palpable support was given to the U. 8 Steel stocks to offset! the offorts of tho bears to depress prices | by telling what dire things will happen if there is a coal strike. Pittsburg oper-! ators were revtesented aa selling their U. 8, Steel holdings in the belfef that there ts to be a strike of the soft coal| strike, the bears argued, only hamper the big steel} oration in the running of its plants, | but tt would check the industrial activ- f country by eventually ertp- ity of the pling manufacturing concerns every- where, A strong eentiment of caution has developed in Wall sreet.
