Like a burst of warm Minshine standard issues rose follow ing an advance in Northern Pacific that carried the price from 113 1-8 to 116 3-4. For weeks past this stock has been under pressure from sales by a commission house that have amount ed to 2 3.000 shares. This liquidation apparently ceafed today and a sharp rally resulted, brining to life the old rumors that the C. H. & Q joint 4's would be retired and Northern Pacific receive its share of the profits. Opening prices were a disappoint ment. Commission houses were not buyers and the market dragged al though London took a fair amount of Union Pacific, .Steel and Amalgamated Copper. With a new settlement under nay at London, it was disclosed that a a considerable short interest existed in American stocks. Purchases amounted to 10.0C0 shares. Steel acted badly. After opening at 04 7-8. the price slid off to Gl and on strength In the general list later in the day rose to Ci 3-8 only to slump a 1-2 point Just before the close. Quiet selling is apparently going on under cover. While reports of the steel business are frequently no criterion for stock market prices, trade condi tions do not appear to be favorable. St Paul, Northern Pacific preferred. Southern Pacific and LeTilgh Valley moved up readily a point or more. Pennsylvania showed heaviness. Paltimore and Ohio advanced from 90 .",-4 to i2 1-2 in spite of an unfavor able showing in earnings for Febru ary. With a cross decrease of $l,02tf, 000. net earnings lost $42."i,000. During the month the amount set aside for upkeep decreased $500,000 and taking the earnings for eight months there is a gross decrease of $1,929,000 and an increase In cost of conducting transportation $1.7S4,000. general jeatner sold at ob a A dividend of 1 per per cent will round, out the 4 per cent anticipated. Guggenheim Exploration was firm with an advance to hi 3-s. Copper stocks were hardly more than steady and Westinghou?e dropped a point. Kumely issues lacked importance. A floor leader had little difficulty forc ing the common down to 10 1-2. Uonds were active and firm. Urok ers reported Considerable increase In inquiry over the week end. The buy ing demand for investment issues also showed improvement. With April 1 "tax day" in many states, there Is a good deal of shifting in investments about this time of tho year by those who do not care to disclose their holdings. With the government February trade statement showing a reduction of $20,000,000 In export and no change in imports from 191:3 a number of theories ' about the current of trade have been upset. Idle cars showed a decrease of 2 9. 000 in the first half of March. This is confusing in view of decreased busi ness and the blockading of tr'.ffic due to storms. The adjournment of the United .States supreme court for a recess un til April (i was accepted a-s an incen tive to speculation and the news from Washington that a resolution by the senate called for a record of all hear ings by the interstate commerce com mission on the proposed rate increase, would, it was hoped, hasten a decis ion. Another dav or two will be needed to convince the rank utid file that tne market has really turned for the bet ter. There was little trading by the public today and aside from the 'short covering and the operations of spec ulative banker business was narrow. There is, however, a considerable short Interest open that could probably be forced to cover if the advance is car ried a point or two further. cent may be declared tomorrow, mak ing Z per cent for the year.

I have received a wire from Colonel Tloosevelt from Uonifacion, Matto Grosse province, reporting all in good health. He has been exploring tho Duvida river and expects to reach Manaos early in April.

P.Y JOSKPII r. PKITCIIAUD. CHICAGO, March 2 4. Corn had a big day here today. Some of the larger speculators who were short good sized lines of corn, attempted to break the price by throwing large quantities into the pit early today, but the grain was absorbed quickly and when the big peoplo attempted to re trace their steps by covering they were followed by nearly every specu lator in the corn world and prices were bid up sharply. The May show ed -an advance of nearly lc, the July was up 1 l-4c. and September gained 1 l-2c. Resting spots for the day were :-Srl-2o below the highest lev els. The trade was wholly a specula tive affair, and there was more bull than bear news in the market. The price of this grain has pivoted for some time on the cash situation and there was nothing in the cash article to cause any such advance as was es tablished. Chicago was unchanged to lo higher. Peoria was unchanged and St. Louis wa,s steady for most grades and lc higher for selected parcels, Kansas City about l-2c higher and Omaha unchanged to l-2c higher. The advance here came late in the session in sympathy with the upturn in the future market. One of the larger speculators who has favored the bull side advanced the cplnion that the upturn today was, in his opinion, overdone and wholly the result of pit conditions, more than any thing new in the cash surroundings. The cash buyers of corn at the east are disposed to save 12c per bushel and take the Argentine grain instead of the corn raised in the United States. Large quantities were offered at New York today following sales of over 2, 000.000 bushels at the eastern sea board last week and goodly quantities in the southwest. The asking price yesterday for this corn was G3 for June-July and I6 l-: for May. The first cargo of the new crop from that country will be shipped tomorrow and it is expected to arrive in America on April 25. Cash trade in corn here was confined to 60,000 bushels. Wheat responded to the statistical position of that grain today, helped by the strength in corn. The visible sup ply of -wheat decreased 1,677,000 bush els. World's shipments were smaller than comparative 'periods at a little less than 12.000,000 bushels. The Canadian visible showed a fair in crease for the week, but is some small er than 'for the corresponding time in P.'!.';. Minneapolis and Duluth re ported the cash markets as dull and the latter point said that export bids were greatly out of line. Cash trade here was dull with sale of ."0,000 bushels to interior millers. There was no encouraging news to wheat bulls from the markets of tho old world, as they were mainly lower. Oats were up o-S(Trl-2o in price to day and this mainly as a result of the strength in corn. The visible supply decreased 14 5.000 bushels and Chi cago stocks decreased .155.000 bushels. Tin. strength in corn was a help to the market for hog products as it caused some buying not only by men who are generally to be seen "in the whejt and corn pits, but- by others in the way of investment.
