' -' NEW YORK STOCKS Mil BONDS Action of Market Represents ConTul liye Eeadjnttment to rrice Level. VIOLENT CONFUSION AT OPENING Prices Advance on Roylnsr r "horli I neovered by sharp lnmp of Taesday Close Is Hlgkest of Day. NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-The action of to day's msrket represented a convulsive re adjustment of the price level rather than a measured recovery Induced by steady de mand. The opening presented a condition of violent confusion and wide gains over last night's prices. The fierce rush to buy demonstrated clearly that much of the heedlees selling which went on yestorday was bear specula tion and had left uncovered short contracts on an enormous scale. The London stock market advanced prices of Americans sharply before the opening here and buy ing orders were a factor In the London ad vance. The consequence was a state of en barrasament for the uncovered shorts In New York when business was ready to be gin. The urgent necessities caused the vio lent gains in prices which were registered at the opening and which offered a basis for Intermittent selling for the greater part of the day. This selling did not become urgent again and gave no indications of the anxiety which was so acute only twenty-four hours before. , The extra dlvident declared by the direc tors of the United States Steel corporation after the close of the market yesterday was beneficial to the value of the stock, certainly, and of cheerful Import to pros pects for values and promise for Industrial piosperlty. Besides the strong sustaining force of the necessitous buying by un covered shorts, there was substantial relief by the extensive liquidation which has been effected and which has cleaned out the weak spots all through the market. The course which the banks have teen pursuing can hardly have been dictated by the necessity of building up their reserve poeltlon, which 1a unusually strong already for this season. The purging of the credit position from the artificial results brought about by pool activities and manipulation has been sus pended, owing to the danger of damage to the more Substantial fabrio of the market If yesterday's rough course of procedure should have been followed up. An Incident of the day was the further collapse to 13 In the price of Columbus & Hocking Coal and Iron following the appointment of a receiver for the property. The final Jump In the copper Industrials with the circumstantial reports that the merger was Imminent, checked a late re action In the general list from the highest G rices of the day, touched during the final our.

Dressed beef men were out In good season and It looked as If the recent big decline lias been sufficient to improve the demand, so that there was a. greater show of life to the trade, although prices for the most part were In about the same notches as on yesterday. Some very good 1,400-pound beeves brought 16.20, but the bulk of the fair to good 1,050 to 1.300-pound cattle sold around !4.75((6.40. As compared with a week ago values are now about 2Q'40c lower, but It Kokn as if the downward trend of values had been checked, at least for the present. The market for cows and heifers was more or lees druggy, but prices held up about steady for all desirable offerings. There was a little better Inquiry from out side butchers for the good to choice grades, but local packers were still Indifferent buyers of the medium and common kinds and the movement was rather sluggish all forenoon. Veel calves were In active de mand and firm and there was a broader outlet for bulls, stags, etc., at about recent quotations. - Bushveam in stockers and feeders was hardly as lively as It has been of late, but there was very little change In prices one way or the other. Some of the less desirable kinds sold perhaps a shade lower than yesterday, but for the moat part the useful light and medium weight kinds were picked up at full recent quotations. The volume of business, however, was rather small and the tone to the trade rather weak than otherwise.

On the other hand, buyerj started out bidding a dime lower than yes terday's general market, and as the hogs continued to come In sellers were forced to dispose of their droves at this decline. A few of the talent were Inclined to the opinion the big bulk of sales would hardly show up worse than nVftlOc lower, yester day's mean close considered, while sales men that cleaned up thulr holdings on the early market yesterday viewed today's trade even more bearlshly. Time at which droves were sold yesterday had much to do In arriving at a basis of compar.son. Generally speaking about 100 loads sold ptetty close to a dime lower than yester day's general market. Estimated receipts totaled 125 cars. A considerable portion of the hogs sold from 47.85 to 18, with the long strings at 17.90fi7.95. Tops reached IS. 15, as compared with yesterday's top of $8.26.

This confidence Is still evidenced by the dally opening of new accounts and the constantly lucreaslng volume of business. Your account Is Invited. IT rtTS rV .1 the sheep barn and most early sales looked to be about steady with yesterday. East ern advices were still bearish, however, and the local demand was rather narrow and uncertain as a result. Buyers pur chased only such strings during early rounds as suited their requirements and the tone to trade, of course, could not be de scribed as very active. About 4.000 head were received, as compared with almost 1,000 hesd a week ago and 9,000 head the samo day last year. Lambs, were good enough to sell at IS this morning and ewes realised !6.0tx36.20. While the extreme quotable tup on lambs Is safely 11.16, It must be remembered that it would take something strictly prime In this line to command that figure. The complete demoralisation of all of the outside markets this week hss naturally played havoc with local values as the quo tations given below will Indicate, and while the steady tone of today's trade might be doflned as a slight reaction, feeders will need to exercise caution In marketing their fat stock during the next few days. Ths net decline thus far this week on both sheep and lambs Is right around 6O47O0 and demand Is by no means broad at current prices.
