NEW YORK , Feb. B.-The stock mttrki
was subjected to a notable process of d
gestlon today and en me through the 01
deal remarkably well. Stocks which wet
loaders In activity nnd strength during tl
movement of last week wore heavily sol
to take prollts. The profit-taking wns mi
by so considerable nit outside demand thr
offerings were absorbed with little dill
cully and without any material concesslo
In price being niaile nece.-sary. Indeed , an
approach In prices to Saturday's lovi-l K
suited In n notable htirdgnlng In the mat
krt. the surface becoming practically til
yielding at Saturday's level. Offerings
slocks fell tn n minimum and buyers , I
nnler to secure slocks , were obliged t
raise their bids Io a point to yield prollt
to thp sellers on their lu t week's pin
chases.
While professional operators were thu
taking prollts at some points In the Us
they were replacing their funds In othc
stocks which had not moved thn lust wee
or In which the movement had been mil
Inaugurated. Tim * , with trading procecil
Ing on an active scale and llin moveincti
of prices taking on a considerable degrc
of Irregularity the market presented a !
the charach rlstlcs of a true bull move
ment. 1'pwiird mnvpinents in pi Ices wer
easily achieved and the spi-ciilatlve sentl
ment showed Itself quick to respond t
nny news developments regarding sprclu
stoeks. Tims a number of railroad slock
responded quickly and emphatically to re
turns of earnings for the fourth wepk I
January , showing large Increases over lit
high level of last year. Thp leaders o
the railroad list were the Norfolk . < t Western
orn stocks , the fourth week's slaletnen
showing an Increase of J122.351 over las
year.
As this Is one ot the roads which , b ;
reason of previous heavy outlays , Is nbl
to deduce the current rate ot opcratlni
expenses , the showing was doubly elTectivi
The common stock advance 3aa and th
preferred Hi. Louisville , SI. Louis Sal
Francisco , Denver & Rio Ornniln and i
number of other railroads responded ti
good statements of earnings. St. Paul am
Burlington showed renewed strength on re
phrts of an Improvement In the movemnn
of grain over western lines , In nddltloi
to the extraordinary movement of genera
merchandise. The Iron and steel stock ;
continued very ptomtnonl nnd the leader
ship here was shifted also , under the 'In
lluence of realizing In American Steel am
Wire and some others.
The new leader of the group was Na
tlonal Steel , which was very heavily bough
on Hunting reports of enormous earning !
for the last year to be shown by the forth
coming report. Reports of n similar kliu
have bepn unheeded for months past Ii
Wall street , but toilay the slock shot u |
under their Inllucnco an extreme 37 < i
Other members of the metal group closelj
allied by Identity of ownership moved It
close sympathy. American Hoop and Tin
plate are In this class. Republic Steel
the smelting stoeks nnd Anaconda wen
ulso strong. Speculators are inclined ti
discount to some pxtent the Increase In tin
circulation provided for In the llnancla
hill before congress and in t-onaequenct

CATTLE As was noted hist week , valuei
on cattle at this point were high as com
pared with other market points , and whei
that shipment of cheap cattle arrived froi :
Kansas City on Friday It was very uvldeni
from the actions and words of buyers thai
they Intended to pound this market at tin
very llrst opportunity. Today seemed to hi
their chance and , with Chicago and othei
selling points sending out weak reports
buyers took the bear side and , while sellers
were slow to give In , they succeeded Ii
taking oft fully 10e and In some cases 13e
Jii-5vh9r words. t c fat cattle today soli
10 20o lower than the middle of last week
hero were quite a number of pretty fait
cattle in the yards today and It is a notice-
ible fact that the cattle are getting bottei
nil the time. While the trade was slow , a
might too expected under the circumstances
the most of the offerings changed hands Ii
reasonably good season.
Cows and heifers were In fair supply thb
morning and the market. In sympathy wltli
he decline on fat cattle , was generally 5fi
lOo lower than the close of last week. In
i few Instances sellers who happened tfl
nave something that buyers wanted sold al
prices that were not much different from
yesterday.
There were not .enough stockers or fefil
; rs in the yards to do much with and the
market did not Present any new features
3f Importance. Good feeders would prob
ibly have sold at just about steady prices
