NEW YORK, March 12. The market for
securities displayed less resistance to selling
pressure today, some of the speculative fa
vorites declining over a point on moderate
offerings. Heaviness was most pronounced
In the afternoon, the motor shares yielding
practically all the ground gained during
the morning session.
General unsettlement occurred In the final
dealings, when it became known that the
directors of the Southern Railway had de
cided to pass the dividend on the preferred
stock, which broke five points to 4j. two
points above ts minimum. At the same

IMPORTS INCREASE WOOL STOCKS
South American Steamers Add 41,600,000
Pounds to New Kngland Supplies.
The slowing down of the demand for new
wool in the West is attributed to the in
crease in stocks by importations on the
Atlantic seaboard. Eastern trade papers
declare that manufacturers are ln a position
somewhat more independent than that of
dealers, since so much of the wool arriving
has been from South America and a sub
stantlal proportion of this on mill account.
Australian merinos necessarily have beet.
restricted in arrivals, but the receipt of
more than 2,000,000 pounds by the Colonlan
from London the other day Is enough to in
dicate that New England Is ln no danger
of a wool famine. Since the first of Feb
ruary seven steamers have reached Boston
from Buenos Ayres and Montevideo, bring.
lng upwards of 21.500,000 pounds of wool.
It is understood that dealers are proceed
ing to make arrangements to Import wools
under the agreement whereby the Textile
Alliance has supervision of such business.

0OO Bushels of Cash Grain May
Wheat Also Taken.
CHICAGO. March IS. Urgent European
demand for both the cash delivery and the
May option kept the wheat market today
to a higher level than was reached yester
day, mainly as a result of the Government
report showing a falling oil of 20.000.000
bushels in the supply held by interior mill
and country elevators. Prices at the close
were strong, lift cents to li cents above
last night. Corn scored a net gain of V
cent to cent, oats of H cent to
Vs cent and provisions a shade to 5
cents.
Export sales of wheat for spot cash
amounted in Chicago alone today to 400.000
bushels and there were salu to have been
l.Ooo.OOO bushels disposed of to trans-
Atlantic buyers at the seaboard. Cash wheat
premiums were the tallest of the year.
Corn was helped upward by the lightness
of rural offerings to arrive. On the other
hand. Improved demand southwest was urT
set to some extent by the shipping call from
tils East.
Oats were strengthened on reports that
the Argentine surplus would be far leas
than had been supposed.
Higher prices for hoirs and grain gave an
upward list to provisions. On the bulge
packers sold, particularly July ribs.

UfPROVEMENT IN LOCAL APPLE TRADE
Prices Are Firm and Higher at Shipping
Points Surplus Will Clean Up.
The apple market Is In better condition
and prices are Arm and o to 10 cento higher
at shipping points. The cheaper grades are
closely cleaned up, while the better sorts.
especially Spltsenberga, Newtowns and
Wlnesaps, are nearly all in dealers hands.
Low prices have stimulated home consump
tion and there la now no doubt that the en
tire surplus will be disposed of.
A chest of Florida strawberries was re
ceived and sold at 60 cents a quart. It was
tho best yet received. Another shipment
of strawberries Is due In the early part of
the coming week. Oranges are coming
forward In better shape and the market Is
firm. Seven cars of bananas arrived yes
terday in good condition.
Vegetable receipts included one car of
lettuce, one car of cauliflower and two cars
of mixed sack vegetables from Sacramento
and San Francisco. A car each of celery
and lettuce are due today. Celery is firm
ln sympathy with stronger markets south.
Some local cauliflower Is coming on tbe
market, but much of it shows the effect of
frost. Volunteer local radishes have ap
peared and some local rhubarb. The next
California steamer will have a large ship
ment' of 8an Leandro rhubarb, which will
sell at $1.75 2.50 a box.
A car of Florida tomatoes Is due the
middle of next week, also a part car of
Florida new potatoes.
LARGER QUARTERS FOR EXCHANGE
Rapidly Growing Membership Makes Change
Necessary.
The rapid growth In the membership of

exchange, yesterday signed a three-year lease
with the representative of Gay Lombard for
the large room now unoccupied on the
ground floor of tho Board of Trade building.
The new quarters will rive about twice
as much floor space as the room now occu
pied and will furnish abundant wall space
for the grain and statistical boards. A committee-room
will be provided and an addl-
