MUCH DISCUSSION OF MESSAGE Probability of I. real Artlon Against Some Corporations Cnnaea eaalneao Last Prices Are .Near the Lowest. NEW YORK, Feb. l.-Demand for storks waa torpid today and prices drifted down ward. Sudden weakness was marked at different times and In special stocks some of the selling wss attributed to foreign account and Wall street expressed fear that distrust of Amerlran securities as a re flection of the tone of the president's message to congress of yesterday was Indi cated by this selling. An Interruption Of a reviving demand for American securities abroad, which Is hoped for as an aid tq absorption of contemplated new capital Issues would be a discouraging factor in the financial outlook. Stocks of companies with new Issues in the market wre con spicuous in the decline, notably Missouri Pacific and the Rock Island Issues. Borne of the Industrials were weak also In con nection with suggestions that they might be the object of fresh proceedings by the federal government In line with the policy formulated In the president's message. There was much dlscuaslon of the formal announcement of tho determination of the United Btatea Steel corporation and the other lea. ling Interests in the trade to maintain prices. The advantage of atable condltiona In encouraging future commit ments In business affairs is the feature of this policy which receives approval. There Is the recognition, however, thut It Is by curtailment of output and prevention of accumulation of stocks that pursuit of that policy Is made feasible. The effect on attempted economics of the railroads to meet contraction In their earnings offers another feature of the situation which Is given conatderatlon. Reports of some re sumption among mills In the steel trade proved of no effect In holding prices, nor did the opinion of the mercantile agency reviews pointing" to an Irregular Improve ment In commercial lines. Selling through out the list was freely In force in the later market and late prices were not far from the lowest. The bank statement showed the expected Increase In cash holdings, but the averages Were confused by the deduction from the average accounts of the four minor banks which have been closed since the last state ment waa made. The completion of pre parations opens the way for a report next week to the state banking department of the condition of state banks and "trust companlea, thus providing for a complete exhibit of the local money situation each week. Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value, f2.(09,000. United States 2s declined V, and the 4s registered Vi, while the 8s advanced H per cent on call during the week.

Saturday Is practically a Holiday in tiio caitle trade, no one expecting re ceipts of any consequence on that day, but at HI there are always a few cars reported in. Tills morning, however, for the tirat lime in a great while not a single cur of cattle uas reported curly. The rrcelpla lor 1 1 ii- week have been ijuile libeial, the total bctnt about the same us fur laat week and ver little abort of last year a fig. ires. The rcceiita !or t lie month of Jam. ai y show a very heavy falling off us compared with the cut respi. tiding mouth of laat year, but with the huikIm exception of laat year they were the luiKext for the month of January in the history of tho yarda and were laiger than any month since lat October. lieef steers hefcan the week with a good sharp advance, the trade on Monday being both active and higher. Thut. however, waa the only day on which the trad' could have been reported aa entirely sutlafactory to the selling Interests. During the next two days prices went down bill rapidly, all of the advance and more, too, being wiped out, so thut at the close of the week beef ateera are generally 10.i2nr lower than at the closo of laat week. Contrary to the usual rule the good rattle suffered ns much as the common to medium kinds. In fact, on some days the better ttrades of cattle were liarder to sell at satisfactory prices than the commoner kinds. C'.ws und heifers, in fact all kin. la of butcher stock, liepun the week In active demand and with prices gem-rally higher, but pi it-en on such cattle eased off the sump hh did be.-f steers and ut the close of the week are generally lirii lower than, luai week. There was on some days espe cially a very fair shipping demand for the better grade8 of cows and heifers, so that prices on such showed less decline than the more ordinary kinds. Htockers and feeders If anything were strong. -r and a feeder buyer paid as high as $4 8) for very choice weighty feeders. Light stoekors If possessing iiuallty sold generally at about ateady prices, with in ferior grades or trashy stuff hard to move. (nutations on cattle: Good to choice cam!, d alecra.

HOCS-Thu hog market this morning In one r.'sp.ct closely resembled that of yes terday; that is, buyeis were all looking for good, weighty hogs, and neglected the lighter and less desirable kimls. Thus, while the general inurkel was b-'jlOc lower than yesterday a early market, the d'-dina was more on the ltghta than on the heaviea. The trade on the i.. uvy hogs waa g.-neially active, and salesmen found little difficulty In unloading anything having weight and quality. On llie oilier hand It waa very bard work to dispose of the lighter weights, excepting at much lower prices. As noted yesterday a good many more light hoga are coming than uausl and there haa been a tendency tins week toward an accumula tion of that kind. Hence It bapiiened lliat there were oulte a good many stale light hogs on sale which increased the Uava supply ty Just that mu Ii.

In spile ot liberal recelpta tiie market started out the wees und. 1 very favoiaole coSidiliona. I'nces tended upwaid and were a good 26u higher tor Monday and Tuesday, During the latter part of tlie week the tendency was downward under the influence of large receipts at all selling points accom panied by a very aevere break at east era markets. The condition of tlie trade east ward reduced tbe buying demand at this -point very materially, with the reault that prices slid downward rapidly and at the close of the week all of the advance has been wiped out. In other words the market la now about where il was at the close Of laat week. Operatora on the market are still very confident regarding Vie future of the sheep trade. Willie sharp breaks are to be ex pected as well aa advances, the general feeling s-ems to be that there Is no ap parent reason why good prices should not prevail for both alieep and lambs through out the at aeon. isolations on good to choice fed sheep and lambs: l,aiuus, $.60Iu,'.75: light year ling wethers, o.u..ii, heavy yearling wethers, ti.JXa6.ni; wclhers, H.WuS.A), ewes.
