lTavy primary receipts, as compared
with laet year, ara having effect on the
wheat market. There I nothing at this
moment to advance prices on. and ulJ
mstely values will sell lower, provided the
winter wheat crop passes through with
out material darn. '
Receipts of corn are running heavy and
It looks as If they would continue so for
some weeks. Shipping demand Is poor
and stocks are accumulating at all points,
forcing; values to seek lower levels.
Wheat continues to show weakness and
all news Is decidedly bearish. Millers com
plain of thflr Inability to sell flour and
have cancelled purchases of wheat. The
movement Is liberal and undermines the
cash market.
Corn was unable to hold Its own against
the heavy selling pressure. Heavy re
ceipts have changed the sentiment and
cash handlers have withdrawn from the
market until the shipping demand picks
up.
Primary wheat receipts were 489.000 bu.
and shipments were 2S1.000 bu.. against re

NEW YORK, Feb. S The action of the
stock msrket todsy confirmed the Impres
sion msde by yesterday's market of a
subsidence of the more acute apprehension
f"lt or professed over the business and
political outlook. The bear party in the
speculstlon wss somewhat Intimidated by
the evidence of substantial demand from
Investment sources at the level to which
prices were forced by the week's severs
price decline.
The forelrn markets sent favorable In
fluences, lnoludlng a decline In the private
t'lrcount rate In Ixmrton and an expectation
that reductions might be made next week
In the official discount rates of ths Bank
of England and the Imperial Bank of Ger
many. Some attention was paid to the
Judicial decision ln the so-called "Danbury
hatters" case as an example of one piiaxe
of the working of the Sherman anti-Trust
law. Only faint attempts were made to
contest the rising course of prices, a sharp
reaotton ln the coppers after the opening
measuring Its greatest extent. The buvlng
on the advance, on the other hand, had
some remaining signs of hesitation and
caution. Prices receded before the close
f nd the appearance of the bank statement.
Continued expansion of loans. In spite of
the heavy stock market liquidation, Is in
line with, the showing for several weeks
past and must be ascribed to the process
of rectification of the credit arrangements
rr.ade last fall when loans were shifted
rrom the banks to avoid a deficit and at
the same time save the speculative position.
The large decrease in cash reserve was a

Dun's Report
Psyments through the banks for the opening; month of the Tear reached an normoafl
total, fsr above all previous records, and are a Terr clear reflection of the extent of the
expansion In business which has taken place ln comparison with former years. Total
exchanges at all cities ln the United States for January, according to ths statement issued
by B. O. Dow A Co., whleh Includes 111 leading; centers, amount to $17,063, 755, 07S, a gain of
S2.0 per cent over last year and of 4.4 per oent over the corresponding month ln 1906. Al
most every city reports gains over last year, but there are still a fsw Insignificant losses com
pared with 1906, due ln part to the fact that there was on mors business day ln that year.
Narly every section reports large increases ovsr both years, showing that prosperity Is general.
At New York City there is a large gain over last year. New England elties make large gains,
prominent among them being Boston, Providence, Hartford, Springfield and Worcester, the
Improvement over 1908, which was a very active year, ln this section at moat elUes being espe
cially gratifying. In ths Middle Atlantlo States active business is reflected in much larger
hank exchange than last year, notably at Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Reading, Wllkes-Barre,
Buffalo and Syracuse, and while there are still few losses as compared with 1908, they ara
small, conditions rapidly returning to normal. The South Atlantic States provide
substantial gains over both years at practically every pointy as a result of the
activity and high prices received for ootton and other agricultural products, with the
accompanying stimulation of other lines of business. Among the cities that report these
Increases are Baltimore, Richmond, Charleston, Atlanta, Augusta, Macon and Jackson
Tills. Returns frem cities ln the Middle South Indicate very prosperous conditions in
that section of the country, also, only two points reporting losses. At some centers the
gains are extremely large and show distinctly the growth of business ln their tributary
territory. Among them are St, Louis, Memphis, Chattanooga, Birmingham, New Orleans,
Mobile and Little Rock. At almost STery city ln the Central West great activity la
indicated by soma of the Increases provided, especially at the smaller commercial centers.
There U the usual Increase at Chicago, hut at Cleveland, Detroit, IndlsDapolls, Milwaukee,
Columbus, Dayton, Akron, Canton and Grand Rapids there are marked gains over both ,
years. In the Far West every city shows large gains over both years, notably Minneapolis,
St. Paul, Kansas City, Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Omaha, St. Joseph, Wichita and Denver,
and these ln most part reflect the splendid agricultural results of the psst year and prepara
tions for sn active business in 1910. Returns are satisfactory from the Pacillo Coast, and
at most points the gslna are large, among them San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Tacoma
and Spokane, Comparison is made below of bank exchanges by sections covering three
years ; also th average dally figures for the month of January and the three preceding
months;

CATTLE Receipts of cattle this morning
were extremely light, there being nothing
with which to make a market. For the
week receipts have been liberal, although
showing a falling off of close to 3,000 bead
as compared with last week.
During the early part of the week there
was a steady upward tendency to prices
on beef steers consequent upon a very
flood buying demand and moderate offer
ngs. By the middle of the week the mar
ket was around 25c higher and the feeling
very strong. On Thursday and Frldsy
prloes tended downward Just as rapidly as
they had advanced, so that at the close of
the week the market Is only Rbout steady
with one week ago. In fact, there Is not
enough change to be worth mentioning.
Cows and heifers followed beef steers up
and also down, and they, too, are selling
practically In the same notches as one
week ft go. The trade as a whole has been
very fair, considering all conditions.
The supply of stockers and feeders has
been light every day this week, and, as
there has been quite a little buying de
mand prices have remained practically
firm every day. This means that the mar
ket is In a good, healthy condition, with
no surplus cattle on hand of any kind.

HOGS Activity and strength featured
the hog trade this morning. Receipts were
light, only seventy-two cars being received,
and buyers were out In the alleys early
with good orders. Opening bids were about
5gl0c higher than yesterday's general mar
ket and a few of the hogs changed hands
on this basis, but brisk competition com
pelled packers to raise their offers and
the bulk of droves sold at a full dime ad
vance. Later In the morning, after most
of the hogs had been yarded, the demand
appeared to be even more urgent than
early, and many sales were made that
looked to be Jutit about I6c higher than the
average market yesterday.
A considerable portion of receipts
changed hands between 38.30 to 38.45. as
compared with yesterday's bulk of 88.20tf
8.35. Tops reached 38.55, as against yester
day's top of 38.46, and tops a week ago of
38.20.
Excepting Thursday and yesterday, the
market this week has shown unusual
strength each day. The week's run Is
about 2.000 head less than last week's sup
ply, and about 7,000 head less than re
ceipts for the same week last year, and
the net advance In prices over last week's
close Is pretty close to 35c.

SHEEP There was nothing received In
the way of live mutton today and the
market remained nominally steady.
Prices In the sheep barn this week have
been on a steadily advancing scale as a
result of curtailed supply and a good,
active demand fur all kinds of killers,
i.ach day receipts have been cleaned up
about as fast as yarded at the improved
figures and current quotations are fully
as lilKh as at any time before the agita
tion of lolty meat prices. Olferlugs, as a
rulo, have carried more flesh and finish
than recently, as the numerous toppy sales
of the last few days have indicated. The
demand for sheep has been especially brisk
and the Improvement in values mors ap
parent than 6u lambs. Good kinds of ewes,
wethers and yearlings are pretty close to
5uCa75c higher than they were at last week's
close.
Lambs have also been selling very well,
but buyers were not as keen for stock of
this description toward ths close of 'the
week and the trade lost much of Its
urgency. No notable change in values re
suited, however, and present prlcea are
about 36"(6oc higher than a week ago. The
best, lambs here lately topped at $ 60. as
compared with lavt week's top of 38.1a.
On account of the limited receipts of
stock suitable for flnlxhlng, the volume of
feeder business this week liua been small,
but what few strings were taken back Into
the country realized good, strong prices.
Some good shearing lambs sold as high
as 87.70.
