NEW TORK. ApHl 21 The tension of
the last few dsys In WslI street waa re
lieved today with the passage of the so-
called Missouri Paclflo affair from the
place of predominant Interest which it had
occupied much of the week.
The street seems to have arrived at the
conclusion that the Oould Interests has
msd deflnlt and favorabl financial ar
rangements and that the Rockefeller ln-
uence In the Gould properties as a whole,
ss been materially strengthened.
The stock market generally . waa heavy
nd reports as to the outlook for the steel
nd Iron trad were eepeclalry depressing.
In spit of th heavy undertone, net losses
on the dsy were slight, largely because
short covering prevented any extensive re
cessions. The bond market was steady. Total sales,
par value.. 11.504.000. Catted States bonds
were unchanged on call.
