NETW TORK. Feb, T -Heaviness and al-
moet stagratlon continued the character
istics of all developments of the securities
market today. There was no evidence of
any participation in the dealings oiitstne
the narrow professional circle which trades
habitually without regard to developments
affecting properties, tha shares of which
re nought and sold.
The prosneet for srowlng attention to the
political canvass and tha fear that oratory
and discussion at that time wouki turn
largely on abuses on speculation and de
nunciation of the speculative world were
the subject matter of much of the current
talk In the neighborhood of the Stock ex
change and the fears that a refreamve
effect on the market there waa an element
In the neglct of the market. Another was
tha coming resumption tomorrow of the
detailed bank statement, showing tha con
dition of Individual banks, which baa been
tn abeyance aver s'.nce the decision to Issue
clearing house loan certificates at the time
of the pan la. Additional Importance Is
given to this resumption by the beginning
of weekly statements of tbs condition of
other banks and trust companies tn New
York to be given out with the regular bank
statement, which will commence tomorrow.
Another Important departure determined on
by tho authorities Is to supplement the
statement in tha former form of the daily
average of the various Items of the clear
ing house banks with another form embrac
ing tha actual Items at the close of busi
ness on Friday. The statement of averages
haa been upheld by the banking authorities
aa a trustworthy index of the real condi
tlens, but the vagaries caused In the week
end showing, especially by throwing over
the effects of Important operations of one
week into another week's showing, have
caused growing criticism In the larger
financial world. Tbe new item will supply
the needed corrective. Much more Im
portant aa a source of Illumination, how
ever, will be the inclusion of the trust
company and outside banks In the weekly
reports of the banking poltion.The growth
of tha aggregate deposits of the trust com
panies of late years to a total almost as
great as those of the clearing house mem
bers and the entry of those institutions
more and more Into the field of actual
banking business had made the old clear
ing house banks statement growingly In
adequate as a true showing or the banklntr
position. Tomorrow there will be the old
form of statements of clearing house banks
averages, a statement of actual Items of
members, one of the average of other banks
and trust companies In Greater New ork
and aa aggregate average for all the in
stitutions. With such a Weekly exhibit
coming from the clearing house there will
never be again opportunity for confusion
or concealment of the actual banking posi
tion In New York City. It Is probable that
some degree of final preparation for com
plying with the new showing has entered
into the week's operations and was ac
countable for some closing tip of loans and
occasional weakness In securities which
figured aa collateral.
The contraction of operations In the bond
market has become marked and the tone
today was Irregular. Heaviness In the New
York City 4Ss was associated with next
week's proposed sale of a new issue of
S&o.OUO.ono more city bonds. Total sales, per
value. 31.94.000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

CATTLE Receipts wera quite liberal for
a Friday and were made up largely of a
fair class of beef steers. Ail the local
packers were on the market for suppl.es
and with some inquiry for shipping ac
count and general favorable advices from
eastern markets the trade was active, with
prices fully steady for all decent killing
stock. There waa nothing very choice on
sale, but with a good general demand
everything was cleaned up in good seaeon
in the morning. Closing prices for the
week show an advance of about ji&irC
as compared with a week ago.
There were about twenty-five loads of
cows and heifers on sale and it did not
take dealers long to get down to busi
ness and clean up the supply at prices
ranging from steady to S-fjlOc higher than
yesterday. The advance on cows and
heil'ers this week amounts to au"j:je and
the demand haa been - greater than the
supply most of the time. Veal calves are
fuliy &oc lower for the week, but bulls,
stags, etc., are selling pretty much us a
wevk ago. v-
As usual on Friday, there was very little
doing in stockers and feeders. What few
fresh cattle were offered sold ai very
nearly steady prices, but th
fully 25c" off for the week on an average
and there Is little prospect ot anytn.n
like a complete clearance. This week's
big decline in prices will likely bring out
a much beter demand next week.
