market developed a stronger tendency and
Way advanced to 7Hc. The close ' was
?trong and near the top, with a gain of 'a
,r. at 7XV7HHc. Commission houses were
the best buyers. Large world's shipment,
amounting to 8,790,000 bushels for the week,
a lean urgent cash demand and Increased
primary receipts were bear Influencea. The
amount on passage Increased 1,760,000
biiHhels. Clearances of wheat and flour

were firm, on the strength In wheat and on
smaller receipts than had been estimated,
but under the Influence of free short sell
ing by locals and scattered liquidation by
tired holders the market weakened. The
late advance In wheat, however, gave firm
ness to the situation and the close was
about steady, with May Wq1c lower at
44V'. after soiling between 44c and 44Tc.
lxval receipts were Jul cars, 1 contract

Nothing of Importance developed In the
trading In oats and the market waa ex
ceedingly dull. Receipts were fairly lib
eral, while the cash demand waa good.
The car shortage waa still a drawback to
trading. The close was steady, with May
a shade lower at 36H&3t4c, after ranging
between 36c and 30-Sc. Local receipts were
34 cars.
Provisions were easy on liquidation by
longs and the volume of business was light.

day, and a slight recovery was made. May

NKW YORK. Ffb 1-The siock mstkot
showed some improvement today over the
spathctic conditions of last wefk and the
volume of drallnas rose by more than Boo.ooo
shares. Complaints from commission houses
were unabated, however, of a lack of husl
ness, and the market was called profes
sional. A very lari,e part of the activity,
both In stocks and bonds, centered In the
Pennsylvania securities. As the par value
of the Pennsylvania shares Is only $5o, the
total sharc-s dealt In should be divided In
half to make the showing egulal-nt to
that of other leading stock.H. 'ihe same Is
true of the Reading shares, which con
tributed an Important part of the day s
dealings.
Pennsylvania promptly relapsed on the
opening salts of 12.1M shares to 150, com
pared with lil' on Saturday, and hovered
about that price all day, with large deal
ings. The convertible bonds rose 1 at
the opening. This teemed to represent an
adjustment to the convertible value be
tween the two In accordance with the
notice given by the directors of the antici
pation of the convertdon privilege by a
year. Increased activity In the general
market seemed to have no connection with
tne Pennsylvania movement. The revlv.cl
of strength In the Krle stocks had a con
siderable sentimental influence on the gen
eral speculation. There was no news de
veloped regarding th expected dejcl tor
the transfer of the road, but there was
some suspicion that the targe financial
transaction reflected In the clearing house
balances on Friday might have to do with
Krle. The strentcth of ieiaware At Hudson
was directly associated with that of Krle.
1 here was a current belief that all of the
coalers are making enormous earnings st
this time, which helped Reading and
Ontario & yestern. St. 1-ouls ot San Fran-
Isc-n continutd Its advance to Its hign
figure, but nu Information was given out
regarding the expected disposition of thts
property.
Auundant funds offered on Friday and
the easy tone of call money this morning j
iormeu cue oasis oi tne autrnpi co put up
prices. Today s movement was hardlv more
than tentative, hut It was more vigorous
and confident than any of the numerous
professional tests tor some time past.
Amongst the day's special movements
Amalgamated Copper waa conspicuous for
a rise of over 2 points. Prevalent opinion
points to improved trade conditions and
there was talk today of large takings of
copper by foreigners. There was (nothing
to explain the rise In People s uas, except
the declaration of a regular dividend. The
Venexilelan situation was considered re
assuring. There was a good demand for
foreign exchange and It was reported that
money has grown so cheap here that bank
ers prefer to remit to pay off maturlns
foreign Indebtedness. The day's guins were
not fully maintained ana tne closing was
rather irregular. Wabash debenture 6s be
came very strong at the last.

HOOS There was a farrlv liberal run of
hops here today for a Monday and as other
points were quoted lower the' market bvre
also rased off a trifle. . The decline
amounted to about 2itc, or the market
could be quoted all the way from weak to
Sc lower. Trading was not very active, as
It seemed to be hard for buyers and sellers
to agree on terms. The bulk of the medium
weight hogs sold from $6 65 to W.70, prime
heavy hogs from 16.70 to $60, and the light
weights irom 96.60 down. There was not
much change In the market until the es
treme close, when the provision market
eased off, but as most of the hogs were dis
posed of the weak close did not hsve much
effect on the general market. The sales on
paper today do not show the decline, as
the quality of the hogs wss exceptionally
good for a Monday, and, In fact, was better
than the quality of the hogs sold on Satur
day. Representative sales:
No.

NEW YORK. Feb. 2. COTTON Oncned
quiet at a decline of 1 point, under selling i
ior Docn accounts, wnicn was chiefly en
couraged by the outlook for receipts. The
eurly estimate for ports pointed to a move
ment of about 29,000 bales, as compared with
is.foc Dares last year, ana tne interior re-
ocipts also have recently shown an ex
panding tendency. New Orleans showed a
disposition to dragafter the call and
Liverpool, where the market opened un
changed . and advanced ViiiUic. also de
clined, closing about 2 points lower. The
weaker tone resulting from this Influence
was responsible for a decline of from 4 to
8 points on the active option, from which
the market was rallied toward the close
by buying by room shorts and' commission
houses, which with the list finally steady
at a net decline of 2 to S points. The
southern spot markets were held at gen
erally unchanged prices. Liverpool re
ported spot sales of 12.000 Dales and news
from various dry goods markets. Including
Mancnester. were distinctly encouraging.
It was on the phases of the situation and on
the ordinary that the recent liquidation
had pretty well cleaned out the weaker
long Interest that today's buyers were
operating. Sales were estimated at 200,000
bales.

CATTLE There were not nearly as many
cattle here today as arrived a week ago,
so that in spite of the fact that other
points were quoted lower the market here
ruled active and higher. Buyers were all
out early and trading waa active from
start to finish.
There were not many beef steers on aale
today and the quality was also on the com
monlsh order, but bjyers evidently had to
have some cattle, so they took hold with
considerable life, and the market ruled
active and strong to a dime higher than
lust Frldayi The better the quality the
easier the cattle were to dispose of and
the greater the advance, but as there were
not enough of the better grades to fill
packers' orders the common kinds In the
majority of zases also Joined In the ad
vance. The cow trade was fully as brisk as the
market on steers and In fact It only took
a comparatively short time for practically
all the early arrivals to change hands.
The demand was good for all klnas and the
market was safely strong to a dime higher
than last week. The medium to choice
grades, though, - Improved a little more
than the canners, but they also suffered a
worse decline last week than the canners.
The bull market was In a little better
shupe today than It was last week. In
some cases prices seemed to Improve a lit
tle snd In others the prices looked about
steady, but It was easier to make a sale.
Veal calves continued In active demand
at good steady prices.
There was a brisk Inuuirv for si or Vers
and feeders and the supply not being very
large the market waa active and strong
to a dime higher than last week. The
better grades In particular were wanted
and on that class of stuff the improvement
waa greatest. Speculators carried very few
cattle over S.muay. ro that they were all
looking for fresh supplies, and It did not
take them long to buy up everything In
sight. Representative sales:

siitKh- There as a
sheep here today for this time of year, but
trie quality or tne offerings as a wnoie
was hardly up fo tne usual standard. Buy
ers, though, took hold In good shape, and
anything at all good sola without much
double at last week's closing prices. When
It came to the warmed-up and hair-fnt
stuff, however, -the market was not as brisk
and If anything the prices looked a shude
lower than last week. The weakness,
though, was of hardly enough Importance
to be worthy of mention. It wus evident
that packers were anxious for good stuff,
but that they did not care particularly for
the half-fat kinds. Several trains were
late In arriving, which delayed the market
until the day was well advanced.
Trie demand for feeders continued active
and the few bunches of desirable sheep and
lambs that arrived sold at good, strong
prices.
