Feb. 1 There was some further contest to sustain prices In the stock market todsy which proved success ful after irregular movements and was fol lowed by a rally from the low point of Isst week. There was a renewed show of strength In some of the stocks, which are still the subject of rumors of Important projects yet to be announced and there was the announcement of the valuable stock subscription privilege to the pro posed new issue of Chicago A Northwest ern stock. These proved sustaining factors in tne marxet ana neipea to check tne uis posltion to liquidate, which was running to extremes in the latter part ot last w-eck. The action of the money market gave no occasion for fears that an active condi tion was Imminent and there waa some relaxation from the tension of anxiety on that subject which depressed the stock market last week. The tl6.2B7.4K Chicago Northweatern stock Issue and the action towards the Issue of n4.000.0oo Delaware ac Hudson convertible bonds showed that the notation of new capital was not yet com pleted. But this rate of Increase com pared with last week's total of nearly tlati.- ono.OOO was regarded as a moderating ten- aency in this process. The rate for call loans wss appreciably easier today. It was suggested that some effect might have been produced py an accumulation of cash by the trust companies. In view of the con sultations between trust company and banking officials over the question of truKt company reserves. Bueh accumulations would be available In the call loan mar ket. There was a hopeful sentiment Prevalent over the prospects for a settlement of the labor dispute In the anthracite trsde. Tl:e extraordinary rate of expansion In gross earnings of rnllrosds reported for the sec ond week of February wa of favorable ef fect on sentiment. The percentage of in crease over the corresponding week of last year In the case of the Canadian Pacific and Denver Rio Grande reached 42 per cent: uotnsvuie tt Paahvllle. 36 per cent; Central of Georgia. 14 per cent: lost Cen tral and Minneapolis & St. Ixiuis, 3n por cent: Southern railway. 27 per cent; Texas or r-acinc. ana Missouri. Kansas at Texas 25 per cent, and St. liui Southwestern 22 per cent. Traffic official of railroads reported the volume of shipments well maintained and operating conditions not materially Impaired by last week's stormy weather. Support of the market w-a manifest at the opening, but was met by the selling caused Inevitably bv last week's drop In prices and the calla for additional mar gin which went out In consequence. The support In the market persisted and She arrest of the decline In Itself lightened the pressure to sell. An uncovered short In terest added to the demand for stocks. Except In a few stocks the strength did not become aggressive and yielded on a numncr oi reactions. The market rallied t tne last, however, and closed firm. Bonds were Irregular.

The market ODened rather slow, with buyers holding back, apparently wailing for advices or lor news irom oiner market centers. The feeling was generally lower and It was late before the trade was fully under way. While some of the more de sirable grades of csttle which Just hap pened to suit sellers did not show much change, the general tendency was weak to 10c lower. Cows and heifers were In about the same condition as fat steers. Buyers all started out with the evident Intention 01 Buying their cattle lower and the trade was slow and late in getting started. As buyers were all of the same mind, tney generally had their wsy and the most of the cow stuff wss anywhere from weak to 10c lower. 8 o.kers and feeders were In good demand and aold quite readily at fully last week's firlees. The supply was - comparatively ight. there being only . few feeding cattle In sight. Representative sales: Uttr 8 1 E.H.11.D. Ha. At. Pr. Kt. at.

In addi tion to the light receipts conditions were generally favorable to the selling intercom and without much trouble holders were able tn secure an advsnce of 6a 10c over last week closing prices. The bulk of the hogs sold at 5 853 (. as against ItvSofl i.t.'H on Saturday. The top today. M 10. was loc higher thsn anything brought last week. The trade wss as active as could be ex pected, the only slow Influence being the determination on the part of sellers to get every cent possible out of their holding. To sum up todav advance carries the msrket to the highest point touched so fr this year; more than that. It carries It to as high a point as was touched aiy day last rear and higher than at any time during 1904 Representstive sales: ft MO I? lis 11 Nk At. gk. Tt. No. AT Ik. P- . 10 13 ...

Ieir- anie lots answering to that description changed hands very readily at what ItHiked like good steady prices. AS l:lgh as t30 was paid for right good well finished ewea. with the bulk of the good ewes Belling at t5.0(if(6.26. The good stuff was limited very largely to ewes, there being very few de slrsble wethers or rearlincs. There was some inquiry for fat laaibs of gooo quality, but the demand was not as large as for sheep, with the result thai the lamb market, even on the good kinds, was slow. As high as 37. 00 was paid for lambs on the Mexican order. While the good srrades 01 fat fcheeD and lambs sold all right, the common to med ium Kinds were slow and dull from start to finish. With these kinds It was simply a continuation of the conditions which prevailed all last week. As has been explained time and again In these columns, no one seems to wsnt the unfinished kinds, as It Is still early In the season and prices are pretty high for feeder buyers to take hold as fteely ns they are likelv to do later on.
