Wall Street Review.
New York, March 2 -Tho stock market
fulled to show any positive strength at
any time during tho dy, nnd In tho late
dealings tho whole list Melded to bear
prcssuro 011 the nows of tho threatening
uBpeet of HfTalrs amongst tho metiil
workers In Chicago. Tho weakness of
tho Iron and steel stocks yestcrdny.whlch
as due to lutgc selling orders on Chi
cago uccount, wan thus executed. The
bears were busy In tills group ot stocks
oil day, und supplemented the news of
tho labor trouble with many vague ru
mors of a purpose to defer dividends
which have htthfrto been foretold on
more or less reliable authority. Re
ports were circulated also of enormous
rival combinations to be organised to
compete In this Industry. As tho result
of this pressure tho majority of the
stocks In the group were depressed from
2J4 to 3 points. Tho character of much ot
tho selling was mnde obvious by the
sharp rallies In bear covering, American
Hoop, Tennessee Coal and National Steel
recovering from 2 to 3 points at different
times. Sugar was subleoted to heavy
selling all dny which was without other
excitement than the continued doubt over
tho dividend prospects, but which was at
tributed to a new bear drive. The stock
dropped to par for the first time since
the summer depression of 1SD6 Incident
to tho national political campaign and
fell further to 964. rallying and closing
unsteady at a not loss of 6l4. Third
Avenue suffered from additional liquida
tion incident to feirs of a heavy assess
ment on the stock and fell an extreme
4 points to a level almost 200 points un
der the high price of February last year.
The stock rallied sharply and was well
supported during the latter part of tho
day. People's Gas was raided on tho
report of projected proceedings against
the legality of tho combination. Con
solidated Gas was forced down 9 points
on light transactions Pullman, Sugar
Pieferred, Tobacco nnd Metropolitan
Sfeet Railway suffered to tho extent of
3 to SVs The railroad stocks yielded
unwillingly until the Into raid on the
market when large llock3 were thiown
over. St. Paul leading tho decline with
nn extreme of two points Baltimore
und Ohio, Now York Central and South
ern Pacific were also notably affected
with the late rally on bear on covering
reduced the net losses of tho rallrond3
to fractions exi opt In the cases that are
mentioned. There was disappointment
that London did not respond with grentcr,
enthusiasm at the news of tho relief or
L-dv smith by bio lug stocks. Tho dis
position there was to realize, nnd Lon
don was a small seller here. The pros
pect of u heavv decline in surplus re
set ves In the bank statement Induced
somo selling, but the preliminary esti
mates of tho cash average by express in
dicate a small net gain on the Inter or
movement. This Is attributed to ship
ments by Interior b inks to New iors.
for Uio purpose of buying government
bonds. But tho gain on this account Is
quite Insignificant compared with the
week's losses bj the banks to the sub
treasury which hnvo amounted to $7,m
000 thus making lnev Itable u further de
cline of several millions in tho surplus
reserves of banKs. uoiai suits, u.',ovj
BThe bond market was rather dull and
prices jlelded in sjmpathy with stocks.
