New York, March 20.—The 6tock market was
exceedingly erratic in its cours * to-day. The
temper of speculation changed almost hourly,
and traders found it most difficult to catch the
turns, for the reason that prices suddenly moved
up wneu the market looked weakest and vice
versa At the opening Sugar and New England
were the features, the former selling up 1 to 104,
and the latter I*4 to 27*4- A reaction soon set
in and them wa a decline of *4&2, per cent.
Lead, Sugar, Distillery and Cattle Feeding and
Nortuern Pacific preferred leading the down
ward movement. The decline was checked by
a jump of 5 points in Manhattan to 165. %in
General Electric to 114. *4 in .Sugar to 104*4, and
*4 in Ruboer to 57*4- Otner stocks Improved
H to I-ackawanna and Chicago lias were
the most conspicuous in the rally. After 2:15 and.
m. the bears made another raid, which re uited
in carrying some shares down to rhe lowest
figures of the day. The heaviness of Erie seconds
had a depressing effect, as despite Pms.dent
King's denial that there is anything wrong with
the company's finances, the bonds continued to
be offered fmely at steadily declining prices.
Northern Pacific preferred brche to 40*4 and
Lead to 83*4, a decline for the day of +% in each
case. Manhattan receded 2*4 Horn the highest,
and the remainder of the list reached anywhere
from % to I*4. The marfeet closed weak in tone.
Sales of listed stocks 223,000 shares, uulisted
70,000.
