New York Stock Market New Tork. April 20.?Prices moved listlessly within a narrow range on the Stock Exchange to-day, and the volume of buslncs fell far below that of the two preceding days. During the first hour of the session specula? tion was broad and active, with an upward swing following moderate de? clines at the opening. Trading fell off' thereafter, and the market was lifeless, fthal tlgurcs of the day show? ing onlv a few changes of slgnlficarue. The affairs of the Gould railroads con? tinued to hold the chief place of In? terest, and the confusion of Ideas ?which existed as to Impending changes In the situation was the chief cause of the falling off of speculation. The confusion was increased by the widely circulated report that a llnrrlman rep? resentative who also Is closely affiliated with the Rockefeller Interests would tnke one of the places on the Missouri Pacific hoard vacated by the resigna? tion of the Kuhti-Doeb representatives. In view of the hanking connections be? tween the Kuhn-Doeb interests and the Harrlman lines. Wall Street was at a loss as to an interpretation of the situation, and traders preferred to make no fresh speculative ventures until the situation was defined more clearly. Missouri pacific wns feverish all day. moving back and forth, within j a range of nearly two points. There i was some bullish sentiment in regard to the stock, on tho theory that the new financial backers of the property ?would be inclined toward higher prices, to contribute to the success of neces? sary financing. The uncertainty of the ' situation, however, was a drag upon ! the stock, which after a slump late I in the day, rallied and closed un? changed. The Harrlman stocks also were afTccted by the same influences, j Union Pacific In particular was weak, j closing with a loss of a point. United States Steel was under pros- ! sure most of the day. Reports of probable price cutting of steel and , Iron .products affected tho shares un-j favorably, nnd there was considerable short selling. Orders of the United ' States Steel Corporation for the pres- | ent month are estimated at 30,000 to 35.000 tons a day. as compared with 35,000 tons In the preceding month. Some very fair contracts for struc? tural steel ajid rails were reported to? day. Even the Increased activity of Con? gress and tho administrative author!- | ties at Washington In connection -with : the Mexican difficulty, failed to bring : forward that question as a disturb Ing factor in the financial world. Tho ' only effect of the situation has been ' to increase the present predisposition j toward conservatism In stock market' operations until this and other un- j certainties shall have been disposed of. i There was noted to-day a lessening of the demand for stocks to cover' short contracts, and it was assume,! that the short Interests had been In? creased materially. The final hour to- ; day the hears made a vigorous drive at the market. This attack was par- j ticnlarly successful in the fertilizer stocks, American Cotton Oil losing two points, and Virginia-Carolina Chetn IrnI a lesser amount. Erie and Ches npcake and Ohio sold off a point in the movement. An advance in the proportion of the Rank of England reserves to Its lia? bilities from 43.5 per cent, to -47 7 1 per com. was shown in ?to-day's -.v^-k- ' ly statement.

April 20.?The cotton mark?t ] more than recovered yesterday's loss during to-day's trading, and July contracts sold Into now high ground for the bull move? ment, with tho close firm at a net gain of ?91? points. The market opened steady at an advance of lH 10 points on much betier cables than expected, bigger English spot sales, reports of an active trade in Man? chester and unsettled weather In the belt, which caused further talk of delayed plant? ing Many of yesterday's local sellers seem Ld to be covering at lite start, but shorts were encouraged to snnif extent by the ab? sence of aggressive null support, and after the list had shown a pain of about <;-,rioi points on ar;iv,- positions there was a re? action under scattered realizing and a re? newal of Wall Street or local pressure. Of? ferings were very well taken on a set bark of t or R points from the; best, however, and the market developed renewed strength dur? ing th? afternoon "n foreign buying orders, a little support from leading bull brokers, the large loss of stock at counted Interior towns for the day and talk of more spot .Jtmar.il. There was a covering flurry on this advance, which carried July up to It.-'- and i old crop positions generally to a n^t gain of Ufl20 pilots, but the new crop positions; was relatively eiulet and easy, owing to the: forecast for clearing and warmer weather In, the South, and sold only i ? < points abe,\ei the closing figu-es of last night. Realizing caused only slltiht reactlor.j In ihe last hecjr. and the close was within 2 or 3 points of the best There were rumors of further sales of spots from the local stock, and private wires froih various Southern points Indicated a spot 1 demsr.d. which was chiefly attributed to ?.x- j porters filling nut engagements for end month shipments. The estimates for in-me-r row'i receipts r.r leading points were a lltt'.e '.arrer. but th*i?'ncr<*ased port movement, ac? cording :o tlf- bu'll!-!: view, foreshadows In? creased exr-orts.
