NEW YORK , Jan. 6 Notable gains wp.ro
recorded In -specialties ami some ot the
rallwuys today. The announcement of gold
engagements of ll.COO.imO . o\ercatno the reac
tionary tendency of the forenoon and sit
the market forging upward , which con
tinued to the close.
The conditions of the exchange and
money market do not aecm to warrant the
expectation that the Import of gold will b :
a sustained mo\ument , the theoty beirtj
that our largo balance or trade would not
be drawn upon largely whllu money can bu
loaned at more prolltable rates abroad. A
lower range of London prices give a de
clining tcMidency to early train tulims hetc.
.Manipulation of the specialties 'I obaceo ,
Brooklyn Transit und People's Gas ga\u
better a tone to the rulluiijs , but on profit-
taking there were some \ery cubriiuntlal
lois H With thn announcement of the gold
Imports in the nftc rnoon the bulls had tnelr
own way nnd especially In Manhattan , Gen
eral Electric , Brooklyn Transit , Plashing ,
Cincinnati , Chicago iSt St. Louis nnd Colorado
rado Southern.
The railroad shares mo\ed rather slug
gishly until late In the day. when in ac-lva
demand arose for LoulsvllkRoclt Is ,1.11 !
nnd the Southwestern group , Including
'Jexus Pacific , which broke badly at the
end. On the publication of a report that
Manhattan wn to bo electrically equipped
by General Electric these stocks , which
had each advanced C points , presumably on
early Information of the reported deal , te-
ceded sharply on profit-taking The purchase
chase- coal lands In Pennsylvania , by par
ties friendly to the Ontario & . Western
which It was Inferred would largely In
crease the trafllo of that road , rendered
that stock active und strong. Reports of
the possibility of Brooklyn Union Gas In
creasing Its dividend rates and forming ad
vantageous alliances bettered the price of
that stock 5 points. There was nothing In
current news to account for the result In
Chicago Gas except talk of continued good
business. Hocking Valley securities were
weak on the publication of the reorganiza
tion plan , which the movement In the com
pany s stocks and bonds Indicated was more
drastic than expected. The common
dropped 1 4 , the preferred 4 , the 6 per cent
bonds 22 and the fis 10 , with a oubscquent
t ceo very In no case except the Cs , which re
gained 4 of their earlier los > . Late In Ihe
clay It was said that while the contract to
equip Manhattan electrically had not been
given , confidence had been expressed by
General Electric interests that they would
get the contract.
The bond market was under pressure
during the forenoon , but In the late session
heavy purchasing orders were distributed
which carried the level of prices above yes-

The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : The markets
hero were Idle and dull today , Paris realla-
Ing at the settlement. It Is preparing for
the Tonquln loan. There Is also talk of
dearer money. Americans opened heavy on
profit-taking hero. New Yoik bought little
and the close was depressed except for On
tario & Western , In which there was good
buying here and from NPW York. The. leel-
ing here Is that ths market will pause until
18V3 prospects seem clearer. Coppers ware
dull on the Paris tone Money was easy ,
176,000 of gold being taken for shipment
to America and 6,000 arriving from Aus
tralia. The price has relapsed to 77 10'id.
The Bank of Bengal has raised its discount
rate from 6 to 7 per cent.

CATTIJG All told there were only
seentrhreo loads of cattle reported In the
jards , of which four were consigned direct
to Hammond , four to the Omaha. His to
Armour , and sixteen to Cudahy , All trom
Kansas City. Aftir making allowance for
the cattle to packers there was not iiutoh
left upon which to base a market. Ihetc
was not a slnele load of seed cornted tattle
In the yards and nothing that could ne com
pared with the best cattle here yesterday.
The feeling among- sellers was that good
cattle , had th ro been any here , would have
sold a llttlo higher under the Inlluence ot
the good demand and the better reports
from other markets All the cattle here
were chottfod , ranging from very common
to pretty decent , nnd such cattle sold at
steady prices , though In some oases It
seemed as If the common warmed-up stuff
was n little nlow und hurd to get rid of.
Some good shortfod cattle brought M 00 ,
which looked fully steady , and some pretty
decent half fat stuff brought $1 S5 Somu
warmed up Texas steers wont at $120 , and
some common llttlo northern cattle , warmed
< tp , bioueht $4 10
Cows and heifers cold In about the same
notches as yesterday , or possibly a llttlu
stronger. If really desirable , und such as
bu > ers happened to want. At the close of
last week and during the llrst ot the present
week buyers got cow stuff down a little and
they are acting now more as If they thought
It was worth the money and are bujlng It
moro freelv. Canning tows sell largely at
$ J231J2.75 , fair to medium cows at 12 90&3 35 ,
good cowa at $340fr375 , and choice cows at
J3.75fJ4 ( 00. Choice heifers , an a matter of
course , soil evtn above the last mentioned
figure. Today a hunch of good birrcn
Pulled Angus heifers went at $1 43. Hull *
stags , etc , sold at steady price- .
There was very little here In the way of
stotfkers or feeder * and the market was
stiong. Some Wjomlng cnlie * . white , faces
and short horns , about Inlf heifers , good
stuff , brought $4 90 Some rood jiarllngs

The market hero opened with buyers
talking about the same priecs as prevailed
at the close of jeslcrdi } but they wanted
the hoen and the market turned out to be
stiong to u shade higher on the heavy
loads. Good liea\ > loads sold vei > largely
at J3 47'4. with tome prlmo heavy at $150 ,
and rough heavy ut W 15 The s Una kind
of hogs sold very largely nt $1 45 yesterday
With light hogs the situation was not no
