NEAV YORK. Feb. 3 -The dull and
heavy tone of the stock market today was
due largely to suspended Interest on the
part of speculators and Investors alike.
The weakness of the early part of the ses
sion was clearly due to activity on the
rrnrt nf the nrofcspionnl element on tna
short side of the market, and this Belling
whs partly covered ty repurchases oe
fore the end of tha sslnn. Heynnd this
demand from the uncovered short Inter
est there was little sign of any absorptive.
power.
The rtiseemlnrHInn of rumors in a rainer
reckless fashion was an Incident of the
day, which was laid at the door of the
tjearish activities. Anonymous teiepnona
meosaRe to bank depositors to awaken
their h ty and to prompt withdrawals
was ',-ature that came Into notice on
Patu y and prompted some Indignant
dlsgusfclons. The successful closing up last
week of four smaller banks seems to have
suggested this motive of attark, but the
publication of the matter was reporteu
today to. have robbed it of Its powers for
harm.
Very bold and damaging assertions -were
circulated today concerning the finances
of the Rock Islsnd and iransverse tina
in msnv of the securities of the company.
Including the stocks both of the parent and
the subsidiary companies and the col
lateral bonds secured by old Rock Island
stock and those secured by St. Louis and
San Francisco stock. The mortgage bond
of the companies In the system were but
slightly affected. Officials of the com
pany and bankers associated in Its finan
cial operations denied tint there was any
ground for the rumors of embarrassment.
The unsupported condition of the securi
ties, however, had a depressing effect on
the whole list.
The financial effect of the Portuguese
tragedy seemed to le confined largely to
the Paris bourse and had little ref le t'on
here. There was. In fact, some pun es
of stocks here for foreign account. rt
was not enough of this to prevent a sl arp
reaction In the foreign exchange market,
which ouleted the discussion of a possi
ble early outward movement of gold. A
shipment of lino.ooO in gold to Argentina
reported late on Saturday waa explained
as a special transaction. A loss by the
banks on Saturday of f?,l9.i on sub
treasury operations was caused by a pay
ment to the government of a maturing note
of the Central Pacific In the periodical
settlement of the old Pacific railroad debt.
Payment of subscriptions on St. Paul new
stock called for llO.OoO.flno The money
market was not perceptibly aftected by
these developments. Railroad traffic of
ficials hud no increase In business to re
port, but some growth of hopefulness over
early revival of traffic was .discernible In
their weekly views given tor publication.
A decline In the price of copper at the
New York Metal exchange and also In the
price of London copper warrants was but
lightly reflected In the prices of copper
Industrial and mining stocks. The United
States Steel stocks also were relatively
little affectej by the generally heavy tosit.
The probable direction to be taken by
political activities In the approaching presK
oentiai canvass claims a groa'ing snare
of attention in the financial district and
emphasises the indisposition towards layre
operations In tl;. market.

CATTLE The week started out with a
light run of cattle and with the market as
a whole In a good, healthy conamon,
especially aa viewed from the sellers' stand
point. Beef steers were Is very light supply,
while the demand was of fair proportions.
Buyers were out In the yards In good sea
son, all of them wanting a few head, with
the result that the most of the offerings
changed hands early In the morning. The
prices paid were anywhere from steady lo
a little stronger. In fact, quite a number
of salesmen were, quoting their sales as loc
higher than last week's close.
Cows and heifers were also in pretty fair
demand, but the quality was the poorest
that It has been In a number of days. The
demand was reasonably active and holders
of good cows figured that they were able
to get an advance of 10c. Naturally the
common to medium cows did not move off
quite so freely and It waa hard work to get
any better prices than prevailed laat Fri
day, although most salesmen were quoting
the metket higher than Thursday.
There were not very many gtockera and
feeders on sale, while the demand was
about as usual on a Monday. The market
was generally steady, with last week's
close and the offerings changed hands
quite freely at prevailing prices.

BHt'EP Receipts of sheep this morning
were very liberal, with pretty good fat
sheep free sellers at good, strong prices.
Jtuyers evidently all wanted a few loads
a'ld they took hold freely,, cleaning tip
the offerings In good season In the morn
ing. On the other hand, the lambs here
were mostly too heavy to please' buyers.
What few light lambs there were as a rule
were not a very good quality. As a result,
bjyers did not take hold of the lambs very
freely, the trade being very slow and dull,
with the tendency on the kind of lambs
here lower.

the hog kept selling, and aa the receipts
were light, as usual on a Monday, most
everything das disposed of In good sea
son In the morning. The hogs sold largely
at U uxj-t i. against e4.u-s4.ia on Eat

Light hogs continue very slow sellers
and If they are of poor quality, or under
weights, they are very hard to diiose
of even at low prices prevailing.
