NEW TORK. Feb. ll-The dealings In to day s maraet appeared to be largny profes sional In their origin. 1 he mo enient wji h'sitating and Iricgular in the t aorta of the prolrssional ttadera t.t t;rope lor n eRecuve leadership. '1 he incloeiil that haU most to do witn curMt.g tie dcinanl ariich started early firices upwards was Hit; character of the selling in Amalgamated col per and Anaconda. trailera turned to the short side of the market or reduced long commitments in response to this supposed admonition. The maraet also was confronted witn the news that the Bank of England had again secured all of the arrivals ol South Afmnn gold In Liondon, thus belying the confident expectation of last week tnut the Inward movement of gold would begin this meek. Thia represents the progress of efforts in the various financial markets to work out toe nice balance of their several needs w:tn aa little unaettlement as possible. Sterling exchange in tTls rose lgo.ouly today ana this was sttrlbuted to remittances from Paris to London In payment of subscriptions to American railroad note lasues. An accu mulation of American credua in Ixmoon Is thus going on and the absence of competi tion against the Bank of England for the gold In lxmdon was again said to be duo to deference of New ork bankers to the needs of London market. The London Statist says: "The flurry which arose last autumn re- suited entirely from the fact that New York was unaware of London having reached the limit of ita gold resources. Had New York been closely acquainted with the situation here gold Imports would prob ably have been stopped before the advance In the Bank of England rate to 6 per ctnl became neceaaary." This means that shipments of gold from London to New York are dependent only on any real need In the Nfw York market. The day's rumors today were largely dealing with supposed coming note Issues, of which the extent snd variety were said to be great. No authoritative announce ments followed the rumors. The compila tion of national bank returns to the comp troller, received from Washington today, claimed the principal Interest, on account of the increasing excess of the loan item over the Individual deposits. In fact, com pared with the previous statement of No vember 12, there has been an actual shrink age In the deposit Item of over I174.ii.i0. wlille loans have expanded in the same time, tS.iOI.SM, and over January last year upwards of f2,CiO.OOOL It la because of this movement of the deposit Item that the banks, while showing a d-cline of some rS.OOc.Oi since November lrt their cash hold ings, are able to report fn Increase In pro portion of reserve to deposits from 20.W per cent to 21 S3 per rent. Money was firm today both for call and time loans, partly on account of the fail ure to engage any gold In London for New York. The prospect of the early r4 sump tion of the Interstate Commerce commis sion's Inquiry Into the Harrlman railroad combination waa made something of in the depressed movement of the market. The selling paused at Intervals, but was re- newea oerore any important recoveries en sued, except the final covering movement among street bears, which brought tha market to a firm cloaing. Ponds were heavy. Total sales par value, tl.S&S.'r.o. Cnlted States bonds were un changed on call. The following was the range of prices on th New York Stock exchange: galea Bisk. Law. Clna.

The recovery of the market last week under th influence of very light receipts aemed to encourage the country to send In liberal supplies. Although market reports had generally cautioned the country against overaupply lng the market at this tmii, when euaiern markets are pretty badly glutted, still every one seemed to feel that prices were high and that, he would be the only one to send in cattie. The result waa that th yards were filled full. Late trains and a disposition on the part of buyers to go alow until they were well informed as to the situation at other mar kets caused the trade here to start out verv slow and it was late lefore anything of contequence was done. Selfers were de termined to maintain the market lust as far as poasible, so when buyers started out bidding lower there was no uispusition to cut lovse very frtsely. The hist cattle to sell were stockers snd feeders, of which there was a liberal sup ply In the ards. Speculators wete all well cleaned out last week and they all ap peared to want additional supplies, with the result that good feeders especially were in fair demand and commanded generally steady prices, common and inferior grades were generally neglected and holders of such found It slow work unloading. When the market on killers finally opened beef steers sold generally on .the basis of fully V'c lnwer. possibly some of the most desirable kinds that Just happened to suit a buyer's order may nut have been that much lower, but. on the other hand, there were some of the less desirable kinds that sold more than 10c lower. Cows and heifers suffered still more de cline than steers, th market being fully UKilac lower. It waa estimated that there ware over 1"0 ear of cow stuff on sale. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS.

Although the legal time for the expiration of the ninth Wyoming legislature was r.t 12 o'clock, midnight.

' and they held up this bill, the passage of which was absolutely neoessnry If the state government was to be carried on during the ensuing two years. In an effort to force the passage of the two bills. Numerous conferences between house snd senate 00 n mlttees were held, and a compromise whereby I15.no wss appropriated for th feeble' minded Institute and 115.000 for the Improvements at the state hot apring waa consummated. The general appropriations, bill was then passed In a hurry and tha ninth legislature went out of existanoe. The senate confirmed the following ap pointments by Governor B. B.
