The monotony of the market during the past
fuwd.ijs has been tlrnsomo and It Is thought
that a change might bn welcome. The clmi.ro
ciinio today , and In the shape of a break In Iho
egg nmrkut. The warm weather and the In-
cicasi'd receipt * wcio too much for the high
prices , as will bo noted below. Otherwise the
market was without any very essential fea-
tine. Thu future coursu of the market Is
likely lo depend cry much on thu weather
A continuance of warm or mild weather must
tend to Increase Ilia receipts and a decline In
several lines of produce would be likely to
result.

NKVT YOIIK , Jan. 20.- The stock market
gave ) another demonstration of Its Inherent
NtieiiKth today and an almost unbroken series
of material advances was madu In the-active
blocks , The market for homo tlmo linn 10-
kponded quickly to the Indication of gold ex-

thlng over M.000.000 was to go out tomorrow ,
exceeding nil prevloili evtlmatos by almiit

liely and developed ncclded trengtli Thn
jxplanntloii of this ties only In the assured
ca o In money , coupled with tna contldcnco of
American speculators In domestic securities
and In spite of the passive opposition of the
'ort'lgn element , the upward movement has
jcun can led on without their help.
Several Important cliques and pools are now
at work on the market and the effect of these
operations Is seen In thu extraordinary actlv -
ty of stocks they have In hand as against
lie comparative quiet of the remainder of the
1st. This dllTeronco was especially noticeable
his morning , when a few stocks moaopollrcd
hugreat bulk of thu trading , and continued
.o do so until thu market hud thrown olT the
estrlctlng Influence of the gold shipments ,
There was no weakness In the market at
any time , though In the early dealings theru
was some hesitation and Into In thu day reali
sations caused a slight setback. Thu great
eaturoof Ihu day was the operations af thu
