The stock market today was somewhat narrower than usual , al most nil the Interest In the trading centering In the loading Industrials , Hugar und Dis tillers. A few other stocks attracted some at tention by their activity and movement , ehlol among which were the lEIehmond Terminal shares , lliirllngton & Qulncy , I'nlon racldc and Coalers. Tlio feature of the day , however - over , was tlio trading In Sugar , reflecting as It did t ho contest but ween the Insiders und bhorts. The discovery Unit Kugur stock Is so closely held by Insiders that they can make u loan at premium , which was said In some eases to hiivo been as much as 1 per cent per day. was surprise to the street , as It showed that the Insideis held nearly all the stock nnd that It has not IHHMI distributed among the public as had been supposed. The crowd trading In the stock at the open & . ing " was simply . enormous , having IH-O.II - - - ommllcd only once or twice In , recent years. Tlio . . opening , figures , , varied 1 on different sides of tin-crowd. The bidding was very urgent and the Insiders supplied the stock moder ately , but prices declined somewhat , ami the . theory nrovnlcnt was that the smaller shorts worn to Ixi allowed to cover ut the prlce then prevailing , hjo | the larger ones would bo n. further Miiood | , The prlco ne\or got much below the best of the forenoon and tutor In the day was run up to 129 > i. but was lot off u llt tlo at the eloso to 128' , ; closing with a not gain of 3 % pur cent for the day.

The real ilocks were Innllned to itrongth on the nirol- lent ohowlng for Iho pint year for the Dfla- wnro.V HniUoti und Lackiiwunna , but Kriidlng WBI proved for sale somuwlmt. Hotnn renllf.- Ing In Delaware A Hudson curried HH price back n fraction. Lackawanna , however , closed at 1 no , with n not gain of H ( per cent. Tlm granger slocks were rather heavy on ac count of rate cutting In the west und the olllolal denials of a deal between the Pennsyl vania and the llurllngtun canned considera ble activity In that stock , though the rumors Jiad forced It up considerably before noon. It closed ( per cent below Its host IIcure , wltlip.nct gain of U per cent for the day. There wns timiMini strength de veloped In Richmond Terminal shares , but there wuro no now developments madn public , nnd the buying was attributed entirely to In- -ldo orders , The common stock wus carried to 10 ! , , und closed at 10' ' } , with a gain of 1 ! { per cent , while the preferred .stock was ad vanced from 35 to 38 , closing finally at 38 , n not gain of 2H per cent from its lowe l prlco. The conference of the bituminous coal people wai responsible for a gain of 2'4 ' In coal. All the stories about the purchases of the New Vork A Northern havti now been denied , and that stock and Manhattan were today com paratively dull and without material tlmu change , although Manhattan nt ono tlmo showed a loss of l'i percent. The Post suys : The light for control of sugar was the featuru of the day. In tlio face of a comparatively iiulct market for the general list Sugar certificates fell about 5 points yes terday and advanced 4 points today as the battle turned In fa > or of the bulls. It Is not pretended that the Intrinsic values or general conditions hud anything to do with those Iliictuatlons. S ) far as the outsldo mark in purchases Is concerned It would bo dignifying tlio movement to call It. speculation. I-or those who wished to buy they know not what , every chance of making or losing money they know not why the sugar market has charms , but the general market should not bo judged by such a tost. Hallway shares may become the objects of u gambling speculation of course , but when widely dlstiibtited and held for more or loss permanent Investment It Is Impossible to corner them or force each up and down In the fashion lately seen In Indus trial shares unless there Is at least a sem blance of commercial reason for such a change. The Post's llnaiiclal cablegram says : The disposition of the markets today was bullish on cheap money. The firmness was Inter rupted by the ariest of M. Kouvler , accom panied by toports of his suicide , later contra dicted.

The liquidation of seine great speculations has set free large amounts , so that money Is everywhere eomp.u-ativoly easier and cheap , hut nevertheless there Is moro sense of uncertainty about the future than appeared a month ago. In most trades at Huston business Is satis factory. The demand for iron and Its pro ducts is large , but prices very low. At Haltimoro rubber and naval stores arc strong , turpentine advancing. At Cleveland trade is fair , money easy , but ollections slow. At Cincinnati collections are slow. At Detroit there Is some complaint of col lections. At Indianapolis increased sales of groceries are noted , with advancing prices. Chicago reports Satisfactory business , though collections are delayed. Money is in good demand , but currency returning from the country. Clearings , stock and real es tate show a decrease and also receipts of most of the most principal products because of bad weather , though wheat receipts in creased 150 per cent. ' At St. I'tiul collections are slow , as at Milwaukee , but ut St. I-ouis they are fairly prompt. At Kansas City trade is good and collec tions also , receipts of live stock liberal and of grain moderate. Oiimlm'n Kxcdlcnt Trade. At St. Joseph trade is good in all lines ami collections are good there ami at Omaha , where trade is excellent. At Denver both trade and collections are very fair. Southern cities generally report Improve- nent , especially Ixmisvillc , Nashville , Knoxville - ville and Memphis. At Mttlo Hock trade is quiet , but at tUIanta business increases and collections are fair. At New Orleans trade is fair and money 1 In fair demand , with some pressure , but ' 1 cotton is dull with light receipts. Sugar is still strong and active. Speculation grows less active , many large operations having been closed out. Wheat Is a fraction lower in price with moderate sales the western receipts in four days hav ing been over 2,000,000 bushels in spite of bad weather , while. Atlantic exports have been only Kill,000 bushels. Corn is only a half cent higher and pork $ products a shade higher , but oats a half cent lower. Coffee is a < iuarterofa cent higher with moderate sales , and oil a half cent lower. Cotton has not changed In price though sales have been quite largo and the receipts this week thus far have been 40,000 and exports W.CXW bales smaller than last year. The iron and steel industry during the past week has been facing record breaking prices , though the demand and sales are large. Bessemer pig at Pittsburg has fallen to J1S1.25 , und other markets for pig arc irregu- laP , though sales are largo. The business in finished products is very heavy , but for many kinds they arc the lowest over known. The outgo of gold this week is attributed to various foreign requirements , but there is still nn excess of merchandise exports over imports for January. . The business failures occurring throughout the country during the last seven days num ber 29. ) , as compared with the total of 332 for last week.
