A buliiah sentiment pervaiied the wheat
pit. The market was strong at the aiart,
May being up to ',ulc, at 8io to

aituatlon at the opening were a decline in
the price of British consols on a renewal
War talk, firm foreign markets, together
arlth lack of moisture in the southwest. At
vihe advance there was liberal profit taking,
which resulted In a setback of about o.
The market steadied on heavy purchases
by the big long Interest, Later In the ses
sion a report Was circulated that Japan
had accepted Russia's counter proposition.
This rumor started another selling move
ment on the part of local traders. The
dee Ire to take profltswaa Intensified by a
fairly large Increase In the. worlds svail
abla stoma. Under this selling pressuie
May declined to fctic. A belter export de
mand with reporta of rains in Argenttn
soon caused a reversal of sentiment. Prices
responded readily to the change, May ad
vancing to 877c. The close was strong
at that figure. Clearances of wheat and

NEW YORK. Jan. 12-The revival of
anxiety over the far eastern situation made
Itself apparent in the yielding tendency of
stock today as Well as of cotton, which
consistently advanced. The effect was
much more noticeable, however, In the al
most total killing of speculative Interest.
During the afternoon the slock market le
came practically stagnant. The dribble of
stocks wss sufficient to cause a slow down
ward tendency of prices but there was as
much lack of aggressiveness on the psrt
of the bears as of the bulls. In fact there
was evidence of some desire on the part of
JI" L COVPr ahorta In a few stocks.
The borrowing demand for Pennsylvania
in the loan crowd pointed to an uncovered
short Interest, The firmness of this stock
in face of the depression elsewhere caused
some credence to be given to the persistent
rumors of a plan of adjustment of polnia
of antagonism being worked out In official
S'u.KatlVJ'w bt'',n he Pennsylvania
and the Wabash interests. There wss a

points following lower Liverpool cables
than expected and rather disquieting early
rumors from the far east. Soon alter the
opening March had sold down to 13.6'Kj,
May to 13.S"c, and July to 13. sic, these be
ing net declines of about iZ3 points. At
the lower level offerings became less and
the market turned a little steadier and at
midday prices had recovered to nearly the
opening prices. Again there was a slight
set buck under realising, but in the early
afternoon the market was rallied sharply as
a result It was thought, of buying for the
account of Philadelphia .-lot interests wh.U
later the demand was moieasd by com
mission houses, evidently favorably Im
pressed by the receipts which ran light,
parlcularly the scml-weckly interior fig
ures. On the advance buying orders weia
received from New Orleans in good num
bers, and the high level wuh carried to
within a few points of , ther best of the

early buyers, prices reacted only a few
points, ine market closed si a net ad

c. cattle here this morning, but the demand
seemed to be In better chape' than It was
yesterday and trading ruled more active
with prices about steady. The quality of
the offerings was rather below the average
but a good clearance waa made at a rea
sonably early hour.
There was about the usual proportion of
corn-fed terrs Included In the receipts, and
while the quality was common tha market
ruled a little more active than yesterday
with prices fully as good. Some of the
warmed-up kinds were hard to sell at
steady prices as buyers all seemed to be
looking for the better grades and In fact
said they could not find enough good cattle
to fill their orders.
The cow market also had a little more
life to It, especially early In the morning,
than was noticed yesterday, and the gen
eral tone of the market was better. While
the prices nald could not be. quoted higher
they were fully as good and salesmen found
It much easier to dispose of their holdings
than was the case yesterday. The demnaid
seemed to be good for all kinds, so that
a good clearance was made.

the market could safely be quoted steady

SHEEP There una nnl an TipaslVS run
or sheep and lambs In sight this morning
anil, as the demand continued in good
shape, the market ruled active and not far
from steady. The quality of the bulk of
the ofteringa was not as good as usual, and
that had a tendency to make biivers bear
ish. The market could probably best be
described by calling it about steady on
the better grades, while the commoner
kinds were wenk to a dime lower. Com
mon ewes suffered about as much ss any
kind. A good clearnnce. though, was made
at a reasonably earlv hour. A bunch of
native lambs sold as high as $f.75, ewes
sold up to 34. CO. wethers brought 84. 40, and
Wethers and yearllngn $4 4U uud 8-1.60, and
straight yearlings 34.W.
There were a few feeders on sale and
they mot with good dc4naud at steady
prices.
