MoviMin.vrs of .stocks ami iiomis.
Prices Slunv nn Iiiellnntliiti to Slip
Illicit Whenever riisnpported.
NHW YORK, Jan. 25. Prices traversed n
considerable rango today from the low level
to the top level, covering 1 point for a large
number of stocks, and ranging from 2 to
about 3 for some of the most prominent
and most netlve In the list. Tho number
of stocks which at any time got u point
nwny from last night's level In either direc
tion was small however. The decline In
prices was suggested at Mngland's disposi
tion to sell American stocks, which had es
tablished declines ranging nearly up to n
point In some ot the American stocks be
fore the opening. The New York market
depressed In sympathy and wenkness was
rather acute in some cases, notably In St.
Paul nnd Brooklyn Transit. These stocks
later In Iho day led the advance so that
their extreme range was wide, St. Paul ris
ing 3S from the lowest, ami closing at the
top, while Urooklyn Transit advanced an
extreme 2i. This morning's decline coming
on top of thnt of yesterday Invited some
buying to support prices and the market
hardened nrctty promptly after tho open
ing dip, The movement was exceedingly
desultory and there were frequent reac
tions during the day. Whenever specula
tive support was withdrawn, In fact, prices
were Inclined to slip back. Tho most notable
movement of the day was that of tho
southwesterns, which followed n show of
firmness for several days past In Kansas &
Texas preferred. There was also very
heavy absorption of tho bonds of the St.
Louis .Southwestern company and the Mis
souri, Kansas & Texan company this morn
ing, becauso the rise In tho slocks was In
augurated. The advance In the group
reached 37H In Missouri, Kansas & Texas
preferred, 2',4 In the common and about 2
points each In the St. Louis Southwestern
stocks, Wabash preferred, Texas A: Paclllo
and Missouri Puclllc. Thcro was no news
to explain the rise beyond tho favorable
showing of earnings for several members
of tho group, which were published during
the day and which made them available for
manipulation by a speculative pool. There
were renewed rumors also of the lately
talked of consolidation of southwestern rail
roads. Tho steel stocks wero Inclined to strength
all day and show good net gains.
Sugar showed decided Improvement. North
ern Paclllo rallied 2 after an early de
pression, and thcro wen- a number of less
prominent railroads which showed good re
coveries. The gains were not well main
tained, and tho closing was at tho best,
except In n few stocks, notably St. Paul
nnd tho southwesterns. Urooklvn Transit
was feverish alt day and broke sharply
after a considerable advance, when the list
of directors elected by the stockholders was
published, as It failed to show the prcsenco
of the Metropolitan Street Railway Inter
ests In this new directory, which have been
much promised In Wall street gossip. Tho
most notable feature of tho day's market,
was tho decld'Ml decline In activity lrnm
tho recent high level and tho necessity "for
persistent manipulation to sec-.iro n move
ment of prices. This Is the natural result
of the largt elimination of speculative ac
counts, caused by last week'H considerable
reaction and this week's rebound, which
resulted in an Increase In the short Interest.
Tho preliminary figures of tho week's
movement of cash Insure another gain In
tomorrow's bank statement, which will
reach over $1,000,000 as n result of the ex
press movement from the Interior and In
into or tno gold export or si.ooo.ooo, wnieii
..most exactly wined out the gain by tho
banks on subtreasury operations.
tno largo demand for St. Louis south-
westerns was the in. 'option of an active
buying movement of bonds of all tho
Gould Southwesterns at notable advances
In price. Tho general market was firm but
quiet. Total Miles, par value, $5,923,000.

financial cablegram says: Tho stock mar
ket here was Inactive and heavy. In sym

restored the entire list to list 11 gut s basis,
after which a nolnt or two range consti
tuted fluctuations up to tho noon hour. Tho

ROSTON, Jan. 25. Tho Herald today
makes public the dimensions of the Lawson
cup defender. They nro: Its cxtrcmo beam
Is 2 feet 2 Inches narrower than the Co
luiubln, and its draught Is Just tho samo ns
tho Columbia 20 load. Its water lino is 90
feet and originally It was oor 142 feet over
alt length, but this has been cut down ln
Iho after overhang; and ncro3s tho Btcrn,
where it originally measured 9 feet. It has
been mnde a foot wider. From tho nfter
end of the water lino tho stern post Is 12
feet 9 Inches under the water. Tho stern
post then rakes at an nnglo of 45 degrees,
and from tho point whero It meets tho
planking of tho hull to the heel It mensurea
23 feet. From the underside ot the urch-
board In tho stern heel to 'ho stern post
measures 33 feet 0 Inches In tho half
b:endth plan, In the wuko of tho foro end
of tho water line, It measures 10 feet 7
Inches out to the outer edge of tho deck
and at tho end of tho water lino. The for
wnrd overhung Is 26 fect and tho after over
hang 21 feet C Inches.
In the shapo of the lougitudlnnl section,
except that tho center of tho lateral re
sistance 1b three feet farther aft than It Is
ln tho Columbln, tho boats aro very much
alike.
In area of lateral planes Crownlnshlold
has rondo a gain over the Columbia, having
about fifty feet less. Tho center of tho
lateral resistance In tho Columbia Is fifty
one foot, whllo ln tho Lawson boat It ts
fifty-four feet bnft tho face of tho stem at
tho load water line.
In tho midship sections of both boats
thcro Is great similarity. Knelt has a 6harp
dend rise, and except that tho hllgo In tho
Lawson boat drops n llttlo below that of the
Columbln, thus showing that It hns more
stability of form to tho section thnn tho
Defender of 1899, tho boats, In regard to
this all-Important fnctor ot tho grcntcst
transverse sections, nro very closo, ns Is
shown by tho areas of the midship sections,
which nro as follows:
Columbia, 120.05 square fect; Lawson
boat, 123 squnro feet. So far ns stability of
form of tho section goes tho Lawson boat
has the greater of tho two. In tho matter
of displacement ngaln Is seen nn almost
dead flat amount, to-wit: About 115 tons
for each.

CATTLE There was a light run of cattle
hero today and whllo the market was not
overlv brisk prices on good stuff held Just
about steady. Other markets were reported
dull and lower, which nnturally had a ten
dency to mako buyers rather bearish here,
but at tho samo tluio they bought un what
was offered at very satisfactory prices.
Thcro were only a fow steers on sale and
tho better grades sold readily at just about
yesterday's prices. Ruyers wero not par
ticularly anxious for the less desirable
gradea and trade on those kinds was not
verv active, but everything was sold In
good season nt right around steady prices.
Good cows brought steady prices today,
particularly on the early market. Later on
sellers complained that It was a illtllcult
matter to get steady prlees for the less de
sirable kinds and In some cases Ihev were
calling the market lower. It being tho last
of tho week packers wero not very anxious
for supplies and naturally tried to pound
prices down u little. Tho week Is closing
with the feeling u little stronger on cow
stuff than Jt wns at the close of last week,
but not much different than It was on Mon
day of this week.
Packer bulls did not sell uny too readily
today, but prices did not show much
chnnge. Tho snmo iii true of calves nnd
"'tTio few feeders offered today sold at
good firm prices. Yard traders have very
few cattlo on hand, nnd us a result they
wero all anxious to buy some. Prices did
not show any particular change, however,
nnd tho situation could best be described
by culling It n good llrm market. Stock
bulls were also In good demand today and
tho samo was true of bIio stuff. Representa
tive sales.

SHEEP There were hardly enough sheep
on sale today to nttraet the attention of
buyers, but tho few head offered sold at
not far from yesterday's prices.
Tho tendency of prices has been down
wurd this week and tho market may bo
quoted all tho way from lOJi'JOc lower.
Ewes, however, have held up In good
shape nnd the latter part of the week
sales were made that looked fully steadv.
Sheep nnd yearlings hnvo declined lOJilfio
and lambs n good 20c. Other markets
have dei ijied fully ns much, so tliut tho
prices offered here nro well Iu line. The
causo for the drop is given us a light de
mand for mutton and 11 fairly liberal sup
ply at all the principal points.
Feeders have been verv scarce nil the
week nnd what few havo been offered have
been picked up at fully Hto.idy priced.
