NEW YORK. Jan. 17. Bubstsntlal pro
gress was made todsy In the digeatlon of
spwculatlv profit -taking wntcii nss oeen
accumulating on the stoik market for sev
ers! days past. The sharp reaction wnicn
developed yesterday was yulte widely ex
tended during the early trading today anil
afforded such relief from the pressure
bearing on the market that the way was
opened for a material recovery. The
besrs were active sellers on the derllne
and their aetlve demand to cover helped
the rebound. 80 did the circulation of
rumors of important changes In financial
Institutions, esiieclallv tin alleged pasalng
of control of the Kyullahle Life Assurance
Society to J. p. .vtoi aim. i his rumor,
coupled with the aggressive advance) In
Northern Facinc. was the ettecllve lacior
In turning the market and driving the
bears to rout. Northern Faclflc showed
resistance to the early depression In con
tinuance of the same showing In yeswr
day s decline. The persistence of this
strength, gave It Impressdvene.-s and served
to convince the skeptical that some good
news was forthcoming regarding the stock,
the result being the revival of assertions of
nn intended extra disbursement on the
stock such as were current prior to the
declaration of regular dividend.
Money markets gave striking evidence of
the continued growth of hanking reserves,
both here and abroad, the declining tend
ency of foreign discounts and the appear
ance of continental lenders In the loudon
market driving down the London discount
te here snd discussion ot a possime eariy
gold export movement. Reserves ere now
accumulating so rapidly in isew torn tun
this prospect seems to have no disturbing
affect. The banks have made another
heavy gain on the weVs Interior currency
movement, receipts on balances from the
Interior havlna reached, apparently, fhn
nelshborhod cf JS.iJfO.Oi'O, besides shout
$i&0.000 on sub-treasury operations. That
exports of gold at this time would htng"
on money market considerations rather
than on merchandise accounts agstnst us Is
Indicated by the foreign trade statement
for December, showing an excess value of
exports of SIH.SBO.M. which Is more than
twtre n- nrf-nt ns In December, UOO. Decem
ber gold net imports amounted to $43,444,0.;",
following the $ti.O0i).ftiO brought In during
November. There has been an abrupt fall
ing ff In value of Decomber imports of
rner'h-iodlse to if.3w,i(i, compered with
$110.94J.0n0 In November, and $U4.Sj0.P0 in
1 'eeeir.bi r of 1ti, piakrtg a striking exhibit
of the country's reduced consumption as
an effct of the financial crisis. December
exports, on the other band, have risen
severul million dollars over even the No
vember record to an absolute record for
anv one month of $W.17,4;. The enormous
outward movement of grain and cottoft has
conduced largely to this result.
The violent eirly decline In prices cen
tered largely In the metal Industrials,
amalgamated copper and American Smelt
ing being special targets of attack, for
reasons obvious In the depressed oonditlon
of the mining industry. New York Central
was also pressed for sale sharply, the long
account In the stock having been con
siderably extended In the buying following
the sale of equipment notes. The extent

LONDON. Jan. 17. Money was plenti
ful on the market today and dla-ounis
were easier on free purchases of bills
by ths continent. Trading on the Stock
exchange developed a aeak undertone,
and realisations by recent speculative
buyers affected gilt-edged securities and
home rails adversely. The newa regard
ing the Japanee budget from loklo
meakened Japaneae bonds, poor traffic
returns depressed Grand Trunk, wliilo the
reduction in the dividend of Amalgamated
Copper and the decline in the price of
the metal Were responsible lor the de
pression in copper shares American au
curltlea opened fairly ateady. but irregu
larity developed soon and this was fol
lowed by a downward tendency whirf
brought values , generally below parity.
Canadian Pacific waa the weak leature,
but Southern Pacific and Union i'aciflc
were comparatively ateady. Later tha
Well street opening became irregular,
then New York suld and the market
Closed dull but easy.
PARIS. Jap. 17. Trading 00 the Bourse
here today was Irregular. Rentes wore
lower on the decision to press lae in

Japanese shsres snd toppers were dnwn.

Sunday.
C ATT LK Receipts of cattle were very
heavy for a Friday, 118 cars being reported
In. As receipts have been liberal all the
week, wlih the result that packers had
taken on Isrge numbers. It was not sur
prising tha,t the Irsde this morning was
very slow and late in opening. In fact,
nothing of any consequence was done until
well along toward midday. It was very
apparent, however, right from the start
that buyers were determined to secure the,
cattle at less money than they paid yester
day or leave them alone. As a rule buyers
started out bidding K3 1 c lower on killing
cattle of all kinds.
In spite of all tlist sellers could do they
were forced to cut loose at the decline
and both beef steers snd cow stuff sold
lOtJISc lower than yesterday. The irsde,
however, was very slew and It was later
than usual before a clearance was effected.
As usual on a Fridsy there was very
little demand for feeders, but fortunately
there were not many on sale. Still the
market on the fw here waa slow and
easier.

HOGS Receipts of hogg were laige for a
Friday and in addition to the fresh arrivals
there mere about twenty loads csrrled. oer
from yesterday. The hogs that were car
nrd over were some that came in very late
yesterday and after the market had prac
tically closed.
The market tills morning started out
about 6c lower, but had hardly more than
got started when it was 5a lie lower, and It
was on that basis that the hulk of the early
receipts changed hands. This n-.eana that
the better klnda of hogs sold very largely
at $4 2tV(J-i 27V. as against $4.3004.35 yester
day, prices did not improve any, (nd as
the morning advanced and after the mira
desirable loads had changed hands, buyers
began talking as much as 10c lower on
what waa left.

8HKF.P All the life snd snap was gone
from the sheep market this morning. Dur
ing tne first tnrea aays or tne week the
trad wss very active In the face of lib
eral recelpta and prices tended steadily
upward. Yesterday It became apparent
that conditions were changing. Packera
war Dot aa anxious for supplies snd began
talking that prtrea were too high at thin
point as compared with eastern markets.
As a result the market yesterday was
quoted generally 10c lower. Lata arrivals
fsred still worse., sailing In Borne esses ss
muck aa xc lower.
This morning, although receipts were only
moderate, the market wss tha next thing
to dead. Packers' requirements were very
meager and thev did not want vtrr many
at any price, and such as they did want
they Insisted on buying still lower. To call
the market very slow and 16ii6c lower for
the two days would Just about rover the
situation. As prices advanced considerably
during the early part of the week the de
cline would leave the market only about
loftlic lower than last week's close.

General Improvement In Collections

NEW YORK. Jan. 7. Bradstreet's to
morrow will sity :
A further easing in the financial situation
and very general reports of Improvement
In collections are tha leading features this
week. In trade lines colder weather snd
snow have helped retail distributions some
what, but price reduction sales sra gen
erally credited with responsibility for what
ever expansion has been shown In that
branch aa a whole. Wholesale dealera and
johbeta report sentiment Improvto, collec
tions benefited by the return rli normsl
conditions in the domestic money market,
but trade demanda are below normal and
In some sections a late and small spring
iririu ! rti-erlti't ed '
Weather conditions' are against tha full
est development of trade In coal and in
this line and tn winter wear goods, cloth
ing, shoes, rubbers, etc., there is less than
ordinary business moving. Accompanying
the greater ease of money at all centers
seems to have conie a tendency lo pay up
something on old accounts and soma long
standing bills have been settled. On the
other band the general slowness of trade,
whetner due to mild weather or at the
south to holding cotton, leaves something
to be hoped for ss regards collections.
Complaints of many extensions being asked
fe. -ind perforce granted come from the
south.
.... .ndlcatlons point te trsde. despite Im
provement over December, below the nor
mal for this season. Jobbing business is
quiet and revisions In price of prints, ging
hams and plain and fancy cottons have
not as yet evoked much buying al leading
centers. ' ... ,,
There Is a disposition to look for small,
frequent and perhaps late buying and per
haps a later than normal opening of spring
trade. More life ia shown In pig Iron mar
kets, the principal demand coming front
makers of cast Iron pipe. Most .of the
business went lo the south and the basis
on which the tonnage was booked appears
to be $13 per ton for No: 2 at Birmingham.
At the aattie time there has been some in
crease In blast furnace capacity, The price
situation seems to b steady.
