MONEY, STOCKS AND BONDS.
3Iore Life In the Market KapM Advance In
BIp Four on the News of the New Deal
NEW YOKK, April 2. Money on call
was easy, ranging from 4 to 6 per cent, tbo
laatloau being made at 5, closing offered
at 4 per cent.
Prime mercantile paper. 5 27 per cent
Sterling exchange quiet bat firm at
S4.SP4 for sixty-day bills and $LSQ for
demand.
The total sales of btocks to-day were 143,
722 shares, including the following: Atch
ison, 9,100; Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern. 0.900, Louisville & Nashville, 4,050;
Missouri Pacific, 4,170; Northern Pacific
preferred. 3.905; Reading, S0,700; Richmond
& West Point, 3,010; Union Pacific, 3,920.
The stock market to-day was, as far as
its tpno goes, a repetition of that of yester
day, but there was decidedly more activity
and the strong tone .was much more pro
nounced. There was more disposition
shown to buy for the long account than
for a month past, and the "bulls" were much
encouraged by the evident buying of the
Keading pool, which was accompanied
by a material rise in this stock ana some
others. The brokers who aro supposed to
represent the pool were largo buyers at
the opening, and the price of the stock was
run up from 40?g to 42h though it took two
'spurts to accomplish this result. The oth
er anthracite shares were correspondingly
strong, and Lackawanna, especially, was
largely traded in at advancing prices, and
to-night it had recovered 12 per cent, of ta
dividend. The most significant movement
of the day, however, was in the Big Four,
which, with the other Vanderbilts. move'l
up rapidly en a large business for
the stock on the report that tha
Vanderbilts had secured control of
the Cincinnati, Wabash tie. Michigan
road, which would be operated by the Big
Four, and that a tratlic agreement had
been formed with the Mackey system
which would be of benefit to both parties
concerned. The upward movement made
good, though slow, progress through the
whole list, and almost everything traded in
to day' shows a gain at the close. The
money market worked easy, though rates
on call were run up to 6 per cent., but there
was no squeeze, and funds were offered at 4
per cent, at the close. Missouri Pacific was
the only weak spot at tho opening.
but
it is only h
per cent, lower
last night. As
this evening than
usual there were
some specially
wide movements among specialties and
Tennessee Coal preferred, Chicago Gas,
Evansville & Terre Haute and others made
material gains. There wan some disposition
among the traders to sell the market after
the morning rise on tho theory that the
coming holiday will interfere with busi
ness, but tbo impression made by such sales
was hardly appreciable, as the covering done
offset it with something to spare. The
market closed dull, but firm to strong, and
generally at about the best prices of the
day. The list is almost invariably frac
tionally higher to-night, while C, C, C. &
St. L. rose 12 and Heading Vn.
The railroad bond market responded to
the improved feeling iu the street to-day,
and showed not only a more active business
but also a more decided firm tone, and
while the final changes are generally for
small fractions, there were more important
advances than for the two weeks past. The
sales of all issues reached $1,616,000, and the
Atchison incomes were specially prominent,
furnishing $2&5,000.
Government and State bonds were dull
and steady. Closing quotations were:

TRADING AT CHICAGO.
Great Activity In Grain and Everything High
er IIoj Products Steady and Quiet.
CHICAGO. April 2, Wheat trading was
more active and the feeling was unsettled.
The market presented more life and mima
tion than has been'witnessed for some time.
The volumo of trading and general life to
tho trade was a reminder of by-gone days.
The opening for May was ho lower than
Monday's closing, and prices further de
clined Sgc, then rallied under sharp buying
1J4C, held steady and closed about ae high
er than Monday. July, which closed Mon
day at l3sc below May, sold to-day within
sClc of the May price, closing stroug
and fuUy "so higher than Monday. The
firmness in tho July future, also in June,
was due to some extent to the Illinois crop
report, published a day or two ago. which
was considered unfavorable. A prominent
local trader was reported as having bought
July and sold May; in fact, tlvere was con
siderable selling of long wheat at the open
ing and shortly thereafter. Later on there
was more general buying, which resulted
in the advance. The early decline was at
tributed to the easier tone of foreign ad
vices and the increase on ocean passage.
Corn was quite active and firmer. A very
good demand existed from "shorts? and
other sources, and. as offenugs were quite
meager, the market ruled strong. The
market opened active and stroug at Mon
day's closing prices, and under a good local
demand, mainly for May and July, ad
vanced V-c, eased oil a little, and closed
Sfcc higher than Monday. Oats were
active, firmer and s'Z4C higher, but out
side figures were not maintained until the
close. There was good buying by 'shorts,"
both for May and July, and those months
showed the most strength. Pork trading
was comparatively light and prices ex
hibited little change, but rather favored
sellers. There was a fair business In lard.
The demand was only fair and prices de
clines! about ,0,-12C on the near deliveries,
and the market closed steady. A moderate
trade was reported in ribs and the feeling
was steady. Prices ruled about. 02 Lc lower
early, but rallied again and closed rather
firm. The leading futures ranged asfollows:

Effect of Stopping the Quotations.
CHICAGO, April 2.-Mcnibera of tho
Board of Trade ar quite enthusiastic this
afternoon after tho result of the first day's
trading with the quotations dropped.
They say that tho volume of business done
has been larger than for any day for
months past They attribute this to orders
from men who have been dealing through
tho bucket-shops. In addition to removing
the tickers from the bucket-shops and the
telegraph instruments from tHe floor and
ceasing to gather official quotations as here
tofore, the board of directors have ordered
that no member or combination of members
shall gather and transmit by telegraph any
regular lino of quotations. There was
a rumor on the board this
morning to the effect that an
arrangement had been entered into
with the New York Stock' Exchange by
which that body was to cut oil' its stock re
ports from the bucket-shops in tho same
manner that the Chicago lioard of Trade
has cut oil' the grain and provision reports.
The only ollicial quotations which tho Chi
cago board will make will bo tho settling
prices at 1P.S0 a. M. and the closing prices
at 1:15 p.m. daily. A dispatch from Now
York say 8: "The grain speculation stood
rather independent of Chicago to-day.
There wero a few private dispatches re
ceived from there, but in a general way
operations were carried along without
much couccrn over the absence of outside
figures. There was no special activity
here for tho day. but this was attributed to
tho dullness incident to Faster week. There
does not seem interest enough among
traders concerning Chicago quotations to
push tho officials here to action. About
1,000,000 bushels of wheat had been sold
here to 1 o'clock." Reports from St. Louis.
Kansas City, Toledo, Baltimore aud other
points aro of a similar tenor.

Trade Improving and a Good Month's Busi
ness Indicated.
INULA.NAPOL13. April 2.
The wholesale markets to-day presented
a lively appearance. The dry-goods mer
chants, tho millenery houses aud the boot
and shoe men were very busy. The hard
ware merchants report their trade as being
much improved of late, whilo dealers in
tinners' supplies and iron speak of trade as
being quiet' Steady prices prevail on all
lines named above. In the produce mar
kets sonio weakness in prices is noticeable.
A f urther break in tho poultry market and
much lower prices for eggs may bo looked
for in tho near future. Everything in the
fruit and vegetable line carries a lirm tone.
Green apples aro about olf the market
Cranberries aro gone and this has created
a better demand for canned goods and
dried fruits, which are now sellingin larger
quantities than at any timo in the last two
years. It begins to look as if the markets
would be well cleared of canned goods bo
foro green fruits come on to tho market.
Irish potatoes are in large supply, but a
good deal of the stock held is of poor qual
ity, small and watery. Some choice or
nuges and lemons are now o tiered and prices
are very reasonable, lower than at the cor
responding time last year. The provision
market is more active and prices firmer. In
other markets thero is nothing calling for
special mention. '

Attractive Gardens in Winter.
Eben E. Rexford, in Ladles' Home Journal.
It is surprising.wbat an ellect can be ob
tained by small means. One bush of scar
let berries will seem to light up a whole
corner in a swamp. The bit of brightness
pervades everything about it Have you
never seen a woman in black garments,
with a frill of white lace at tbroat and
wrists? What sensation did the sight give
you? Perhaps you did not stop to analyze
it, but I venture tho( guess that it was a
sensation of something lacking. It was
was not satisfactory. You felt that the
effect was not what it ought to be to be
pleasant Let the woman add a scarlet
rose or a gerauium flower to tho lace at her
t throat, and mark the change. That ono
point of bright and vivid color seemed to
make the picture intense and full of life.
Tho proper use of high colors does not con
sist in a liberal use of them so much as in
a use of them with duo regard to the laws
of harmony, contrast and artistic taste.
Used properly, a touch or two produce ef
fectn which persons who have given'tho
matter little thought would suppose it im
possible to produce without being more ex
travagant , What one wants to know is,
how, where, and how much of them, to use.
We can make our gardens attractive in
winter by putting a little thought into the
arrangement of them, and I am writing this
at this time of tho season so that those who
would like to carry out some plan of the
kind necessary to produce this result can
act on it the present spring. Evergreen, of
which most gardens have a goodly number
already growing, will furnish the back
ground for vivid pictorial effects. Tho wild
rose, with its scarlet hues, tho scarlet ber
ried alder, the red and orango bitterwMt
can all be made useful in . various ways.
The bittersweet can be trained up a tree
standing in front of an evergreen, and al
lowed to ramble about among the branches
to suit itself. Here yon will have a com
bination of eflects. The bare branches of
tho tree will 6taud out against the ever
green, the snow and the skj with beauty
in every curve of them if you will take tho
trouble to look for it. Hero aud there the
clusters of ruddy fruit give tho idea of
flowers. Do you seo the picture in your
mind's eye? A snow-covered landscape, a
mass of sombre green, a cold, blue sky, and
outlined against the.su tho bare limbs, with
bittersweet clusters shilling here and there,
warm, vivid, luminous bits of color, with a
sunshine that is more silvery in its winter
radiance than it is golden, suffusing every
thing with its brightness.
If you want something to give n rich
cfi'ect try the sumach. Its bunches of vel
vety crimson, darkening in tone to almost
black.will harmonize well with arbor vita,
and be iu strong contrast. If you have no
evergreens yon can uso these shrubs with
good effect The snow wili throw them in
to strong and high relief, and make them
effective points of color in tbe. landscape,
but tho presence of something in dark, low
tones of color will heighten the effect. As
a goncral tbiug our winter landscapes aro
m light tones, which need something deep
er and moro subdued to afford a sufficient
amount of contrast to mako them pleasing
and relievo them from monotony. Give a
C roper balance of high and low tones, and
righten them with some vivid color, and
your gardeu will not lack bnlHr.ucy in midwinter.
