Tho business situation In this city has
not changed materially during the past
week. Jobbers aro doing ft fair amount of
business In winter lines, but at the same
time they are not being rushed with orders
for that clnss of goods. The long-contlnjed
warm weather has materially cut down the
demand for winter goods nnd ns n result
retailers havo nit the stock they need on
hand ami aro buying on'y a few odd sizes
nnd a few lines which have sold particu
larly well. Jobbers arc now devoting the
most Of their nttentlon to spring business,
which' Is moving nlong nt n very satis
factory rate. They havo their spring stocks
on hand and nro now prepared to show
them to their customers and to make ship
ments nt most any 'lime. A few advance
orders nro now being lllled and from this
tlmo on an Immense nmout t of spring
goods will bo shipped from this ut. Ju
Hers In nearly all lines have in .better as-
' wirtment of advance orders than thc ever
had before at this season of the year
und the wny traveling men nro sen dm,
' in orders leadii to the conclusion that busi
ness Is going to contlnuo exccpllona Ij

usk Is a normal spring nnd they will breuk

noticed that nearly all the changes aro In
tho direction of higher quotations.

As reported it week ugo, the dried fruit
ultuntlon Ik not exactly satisfactory to those
most directly Interested. That class of
goods docs not sell well In warm weather
una as an extremely mild winter hum won
experienced an over mo country siocks are
lnrcn and ah a result (he market Is show
ing weakness, Severn! lines, are now quoted
n little easier than they wore a short time
ugo. It Is thought that a few weeks of
cold weather would Increase tho consump
tion and In tliut event better prices might
realm.
Canned goods, nnd particularly tomatoes
nro In n good, strong position nnd It Is
still being predicted that later In tho season
higher prices will rule.
In farinaceous goods beans are quoted
2tf3q per hii'hol lower than they were a
week ago. Hulk oatmeal Is also a little
easier, utner lines handled by local Job
bers remain practically unchanged.

NEW YOItK, Jan. 19. The stock market
was excited arid nervous throughout the
short session today, under tho varying for
tunes of tho speculative contest waged be
tween tho bulls nnd the boars. The bulls
made a determined rtund In the early
dealings, boldly supportlnc tho weak spots
by liberal buying orders nnd causing sharp
advances in special stocks, which had a
sustaining Influence on the gonoral market.
The unwleldly short Interest wns m ide un
easy by this show of strength nnd nought
urptntly to cover. When tho brink stnie
mtnt nnpenred there were mixed opinions
us to tho bearing of the large conditions
disclosed, but the bears detected selling to
realize by tho Interests which had ben op
posing them, and they fell upon the market
with determination. Prices broko violently
under a Hood of selling orders for both ac
counts and the market closed active end
sdlnl-demornllzed, with prices for tho nion
pntt nt tho lowest, The admittedly ferlous
ill-health of Queen Victoria caused uneasi
ness ns to tho posalblo bad effects on for
eign Evcurlty markets, which might be
n Heeled here. The bears nlso received re
nerts (afterwnrd shown to be irroundloss)
that President McKlnlcy hnd had a relunnc
with the grip and tho professional manipu
lative tactics were manifest In other
canards which were put ufloat.
At the opening of tho market there wns
an urgent domnnd for tomo nf the steel
stocks on tho report Hint the Federal Steel
company would absorb tho Steel nnd Wire

sottllng Influence on the mnrket. Tho weak,

CATTLE There wero onlv a few ears of
cattle on sale today nnd not enough lo
make n test of the market.
Tho receipts of cattle the Inst week nave
been fairly liberal, a gain of 2,066 head hav
lng been mndo over the previous week and
nn compared with rame week last year ihero
Is a i'nln of l.SbS head. The mnrket was not
In very good shape tho llrst two lays of
tho week, but since that tlmo the tendency
of prices has been upward nnd tho weok
closes In fairly good shape. Hecf atecra
have regained practically all thoy lost on
Monday nnd Tuesdny. unless It bo on some
of tho most undesirable grades, so that the
weeK closes nuout sienuy wmi last ween.
Cow stuff broko badly on Monday and
Tutsdny, but since that time receipts have
been light nnd by Friday values ero
within lOifl.to as high ns they wero before
the brenk. Huvors had to have some cattlo
nnd ns theie were hardly enough to go
nround they hnd to pay good strong pilcis
in order 10 get mem.
Hulls, calves and stags alio cased oft tho
llrst of tho week, but have Joined In the Im
provement nnd are now selling Just about
tno snmo ns tney were n wcck ngu.
The supply of stockers und feeders has
been very light all tho week. There Is a
good demand from the country for choice
cnttlo weighing upwards of 700 pounds that
nro ready to go Into tho feed lot, nnd such
kinds muy bo quoted nil of n dime higher
than they wero n week ngo. Lightweight
cnttlo of good quality nre nlso helling a
lltllo better than they were a short time
ago, Tho common itinos, nowever. ore very
slow snlo nnd holders have difficulty In sell
ing them nt nu. J'or me weeit tney may ne
quoted steady lo n little lower. At tho closo
of tho weok tho yards nro nenrly empty of
nil classes of stock cattle, the demand be
ing fully ns good ns the supply, bo that
the new week will start out with n com
