The New York stock market yesterday cored a' substantial . Increase ', in activity over recent records. The dealings were no less professional than heretofore, but a more confident tone was " discernible despite a further advance In exchange rates to the figures at which It had been previously estimated that gold would be shipped without los3. To an- extent engagements of the precious metal In payment of our debts abroad, have been delayed owing; to a reduction yesterday by the Bank of England and la open London market of a penny per ounce in the price of bar gold. This reduction also postpones tho expected advance by the Triasury,tcilxtment at 1 Washington: in the premium on' gold bars. In treasury, circles and amons bankers it la considered practically certain that a second 20 per cent, call on the depository banks will be made this week. TM opinion now prevails that exports of go'id, if made at all this week will be deferred until Saturday's steamers. No gold b!s were In the market yesterday and. while the supply of commercial bills continues exceedingly light, the demand for exchange Is only moderate. The Increase In business in stocks is attributed to a change of front on the part of leadlnjr speculative interests and rumors were current of rather heavy covering of shorts in the grangers and other shares. The rally in the grangers was attended by reports indicating a freer movement of corn. The more satisfactory condition of the iron industry and the reported formation of a powerful combination for the maintenance of rates, as well as encouraging traffic returns for February with St. v Paul showing a net increase of 51 44,103. had a -strengthening influence. Tobacco was active. At the outset the shares developed heaviness and sagged 3 per cent., to 85Va. on liquidation of ppeculative holdings and hammerlns by the room traders. Insiders were purchasers at the low point and a rally ensued of 44 per cent., to 90. The final price recorded a 'gain of 1 per cent. The entire movement was manipulated. The general market moved irregularly. Material gains were scored in some Instances. Illinois Steel rose 4, Tennessee Coal 1 and Minnesota Iron 1 per cent, on the reports previously noted. Burlington and Rock Island led in the railways and gained li per cent. each. Distilling was not affected by the decision of the Supreme Court of UllncJs, pronouncing the trust Illegal, as the "reorganized company Is not affected thereby. London traded on both Fides of the account to a moderate extent. The closing was firm at slight concessions from the top level, but with fractional gains on the day generally. Railway and miscellaneous securities were strong and higher on increased dealings. The Brooklyn Elevated. Issues were conspicuous for wide changes. Fulton jumped 6 per cent., to 60; Kings county dropped 3, to 2. and Union, after an early decline of per cent., to S54. rallied to 97H and closed at C5H. The speculative mortgages were generally higher with Atchlsons leading. The sale? were $303,000. . Government bonds ruled firm and active on transactions 6f $iC6,000. State issues were featureless on dealings of $12,000. The following table. - prepared by L. W Louis, Room 13. Board of Trade, shows the rsnse of Quotations; Open- High- Low- Closing, est. est. ing.

PARDRIDGE'SBIG DE.L

BOUGHT 4.(MMMHM IllSIIELS OF AVI I EAT TO COVER HIS SHORT LINE. Sellers Were Plentiful nnd Prices Fell Off All Mnrket Weak, ProvUlons Breaking Henrlly CHICAGO, March CO. The purchase of 4.OOC.COO bushels of short wheat to-day by Pardridge helped make prices erratic. The market closed easy near the lowest point for the day. with a net loss of ic. Corn lost Uc and oats c. There was quite a decided break in provisions. The wheat market was very strong early and very weaklater. The decline occurred In the face of the largest day's sales of red winter wheat yet reported in one day. It opened unchanged at 61c and advanced to eiic The aggregate sales of red winter wheat was very close to GOO.OOQ bushels. The biggest buying In the pit during the early advance was by brokers for Pardridge, who cleaned up that speculator's short line at from 64 to 64c, Mr. Pardridge being authority for the statement. That being over and becoming known in the pit, selling became almost universal, with the result that May dropped to 63s5i63-ic, and closed at 63dc, against 63 64c on Saturday, while Julysold down to G3l4C3?c ana closed at 63c. Only a moderate speculative trade was witnessed In corn, with trade narrow at Wac. The market was Influenced a great deal by the action or wheat, but the increasing visible and fine springlike weather tended to check any material advance. The market for oats was active and busi ness quite heavy. The feeling was weak. The main cause for the heavy tone and decline in prices was free selling by parties who recently broke the market by selling short stuff. The May opened unchanged at 19i c, sold at 19c, declined to 19l4c and ended with that price. - Provisions were quiet witn a neavy unaertone, but no great reduction In price until wheat turned downward. The latter fact gave short sellers the necessary encouragement, and on that threw more Into the pit than the market could absorb without a considerable break, with the result that pork closed with a loss for the day of 27V4C lard 10c and ribs 15c. Hog receipts were 31,000, instead of only 25.0CO as. looked for. Estimated receipts to-morrow Wheat, 23 cars; corn, 420 cars; oats, 300 cars; hogs, 20,000 head. 1 Leading, futures ranged as follows: 1 OpenArticles, ing.

CHICAGO, March, 30,r-The wheat market has been1 active to-dayp The early advance was caused by reported large sales of win ter grades for mining at 4c over May. There has been some tfoiibt expressed as to the truth of this statement. Armour & Co. confirm it and say, 200.C00 bu have been sold at th.!s defference. Russian shipments are heavy, about 4,C0O,C00 bus. Of this Italy takes one-fourth. The near future Is a weather question and the cash demand. The decrease in the visible la light, only 300.000 bu. . . ; .. Corn very dull, and a little higher at opening on higher wheat. No feature and receipts lisht. .'. Oats opened firm and advanced c in sympathy with stronger wheat. Little later offerings became very rree zrom the snip pers and elevator people. Local longs were also free sellers . whenthe market com menced to break. Feelimr.ls easy. with pros pects of large receipt and lower prices. Provisions opened rather weak on 6.000 more hogs than expected. The strength in wheat held prices steady ior a time, out later the market weakened on selling by packers and local longs, ......

Gates Mast Not Swing Oat on the Side walks Contracts Let by the Works Board. The City Council, in special session last night, passed the ordinance providing for the improvement of South West street, between Washington and. South streets, with a brick pavement. The gate ordinance also became a law. The .West-street improvement ordinance was passed by the unanimous vote of the Council. Mr. Montgomery, of the committee on sewers, streets and alleys, said the com mittee had carefully considered all sides of the question, and thought it best that the improvements should be mad. Councilman Cooper explained his vote. He said he had been asked by several of his friends to vote against this ordinance, but he felt that he could not afford to comply with the request. He realized that If people in one section of the. city, were permitted to defeat Im provements in their neighborhood . others would expect tha same right, and the city would 'never bo improved. The gate ordinance passed by. a vote of 16. to 3. CounciJmen Madden, O'Connor and Shaffer voted .against it. The ordinance makes it a misdemeanor for property owners to allow gates to swing across the sidewalk. Those ' who framed the ordinance had in mind the comfort of the pedestrian. Sixty days time is given property owners in which to conform to the provisions of the ordinance, and penalties cannot be imposed until the expiration of ten days after notice has been served. Violators of the new law may be arrested and fined in any sum not exceeding $2a. A communication was received from tho Mayor announcing that he had signed tho ordinance establishing the grade of Ken tucky avenue where It is crossed by the railroad tracks. The ordinance giving Urow der & Love Bros, the right to lay a switch across Blake street to their coiton mills was passed. . ; . t .. USELESS CAR TRACKS Incumber Many Streets Attempt to Have Them Removed. Since the Board of Works began thinking of making an attempt to get the unused street-car tracks taken up, It is said that the City company has been watching pro ceedings closely, with the ilea of laying a track as soon as an opening could be male. This, hovever, would be impossible, for the Injunction against the new company Is still in force and will remain so until the litiga tion between the companies Is settle-1. There are tracks on several streets whlcii are not used at all. The tracks on the following streets never have a car run over them: Maryland, from Illinois street to Capitol avenue: Pennsylvania, from Mary land to Georgia street; Georgia, from 1'enn sylvania to Meridian street, and Kentucky avenue, from ' Washington street to the Union tracks. The tracks on Alabama street south of Mareachusetts avenue, on Market street, and. on Delaware street are practically useless and cause much Inconvenience to the patrons of the lines running over them. The same might be sail o! the tracks on Maryland. Georgia. South Meridian, north of the Union tracks, an! South Pennsylvania streets. Most of these tracks were laid to prevent the use of the streets, by the City company, but now that the new company cannot use them on ac count of tho injunction the Board of Works will endeavor to have at least a part of them removed. Sidewalk Contrncts Let. The Board oi Works yesterday awarded two contracts for sidewalks. For a brlcx sidewalk on Irwin street, from College ave nue to the first alley west of Bellefontalne street, the bids were: Capital Paving and Construction Company, 57c a ' foot; George W. McCray & Co., 36c;' Henry T. Noltlns, ZZic. For a brick sidewalk on the west side of Highland avenue, from Vermont to Michigan street, the bids were: Capital Paving and Construction Company, 57c; Henry T. Nolting. 37c; George W. McCray & Co., 36c. Both contracts were awarded to the lowest bidder. Final action was taken on the following improvement resolutions yesterday by the Board of Works: For brick pavement in the first alley west of Capitol avenue, from Vermont to Michigan street. For cement sidewalks on the east slle of State avenue, fromf Washington street to English avenue, and on the west side, from the C, H. & D. tracks to Prospect street. Jtesidents of Jefferson street, from State avenue to Dawson treet, petitioned the Board of Works yesterday for brick silewalks On the south side of that street, anl other property owners want the first alley southeast cf .Massachusetts avenue, ' from Orange avenue to the first alloy north, graded and graveled. Both petitions were referred to the city engineer. Guarantees Matt lie Fulfilled. The Board of Works yesterday sent letters to all the asphalt companies having guaranteed streets in the city instructing them t5 'make repairs immediately. They will be required to haye the work completed by the third Monday-in April to the satisf action of the city engineer. The city engineer wan also instructed to closely watch the work anl see that repairs are properly made.
