LAST WEEK ON WALL STREET How the Howling of the Dogs of War Affocted Stocks and Bonds, NO BEAR MARKET 1S POSSIBLE NOW Too Much Unlendable ittle Flyer— orels' Milllon—Other Features of Trade, Bank Vaults Contal New York, Jan, 81.—[special Telegram to ik Bee.|—You can’t have a bear market with the banks overflowing with money, un lendable even at 2 per cent, but you can have an irregular market. That is our present situation. Certain stocks will make sudden advances, and the general list remains flat. Here ana there a stock will break and nothing else be affected. It is the usual mark of a waiting time, a choppy market, the average movement of prices seesawing in narrow limits, In the early part of the week we had the dogs of war letloose 1n tho street, and prices wore depressed under the rigorous hammor- ing of the room traders. Then the dogs were called off over night, and the noxt day there was a lively scrambling to get back the stocks sola, It dossn’t appear that the dogs were ferocious animals, if their published portraits which Wall Street neartily laughed over, are correct likenesses; but for the day or two that they howled thoy were as effec- tive for knocking fractions off quotations in this market as any of those alarming di patches about the movement of troops on the Roumanian frontier are effective in tho Eiropean markets, Lackawanna Kept Soaring. When peace smiled Lackawanna continued that advance movement which had been started in it the previous week. It rose two 149, by which time the last short in the stock had been driven to cover, and a sudden re- cession of several poiuts followed. The oc- casion for this bull demonstration was the approaching publication of the annual re- port, showing over 9 per cent_earned on the stock during the year 1501. This is a trifle less then 1890, wheu 10 per cent was reported. It is said Lacawanna will go to 200, and the assertion ought to be belioved by this timo, for it has been made at intervais for the last eleven years, during which timo the stock bas gone up and down between 150 and 83, The next stock to rush up was Manhattan, ‘which from 104 went to 110 with sensational rapidity, making six points advance in one day. It one of tho industrials had done this there would have been much shaking of heads about the flighty character of this class of securities. Of course Manhattan fell back again some poins under roalizing sales. There was no short interest in the stock, us 1t has not been traded in speculatively since its grand smash in June, 1877, when the famous June wheat corner went to pieces in Chicago and carried down C. W. Flield ana all s belongings, The recent court of ap- peals’ decision was the ostensible motive for running up the stock and a profitable turn it was for the operators who made it. Gas Stocks Sailing, There was another sensation Saturday when the Consolidateda Gas rose from 104 to 111 on the abnouncement thot the dividend had been increased from 5 to 6 per cent. This 38 a solid basis for an advance, aund it be asssuined that the stock will sell permanently on a 6 per cent basis. In former discussions of gas properties it has been more thau once asserted that Consolidated gAs would increase its dividends and would sell up to 125, and some day it certainly will, unless the growth of New York should come to anend. In thecourse cof time whon confi- dence has grown in the management of the Chicago Gnas company the stock of that will sell at a figure corresponding to the divi- dends iv pays. Itsertaloly does not now, 1f comparison bo made with other securities paying 5 per cent and not one is more sure of continuing than tho Chicago company, to nothing of the certainty of increasing that rate. Flurries In Other Stocks, The three stocks mentioned are the only ones which made big rushes during tho week, but some others had some flurries. Northern Pacific preferred had one during the covering of shorts by a prominent oper- ator, who bought in his line to facilitate operations in other things. When this sup- &orb had been removed the stocks fell back. erman houses were large sellers when the Erioe crossea 68, and they will probably be uyers ugalu around 66, Louisville has been decidedly weak on London selling. They get the news about this property over there boforowe do, be- cause some leading English financial houses are beavily interested in it. These houses huve probably had possession of the com- uny's December — statement, not due ere until the last day of montb, and it Is supposed the tigures of net earnings caused the selling. Louisville is suffering in common with other southern roads, nearly all of which report a decrease in earnings, Stocks In Trouble, The latest reports of the Richmond Terminal are poor. 1f they go on that way it is likely to postpone the bringing out of tho reorganization scheme for a considerablo time. The stock which broke badly is the distillers trust. As is well known the western ofticers of the company unloaded their hold- ings botween 60 “and 65 ana Wall street has been entertained by a food of bear dispatches about the property, always in the form of statements by the leading di- rectors of trustees who see nothing but sus. pension of dividends, uncertainty of trade complications with the government and other direful things while they are trying to buy back cheaply the stock they sold, Nels Morris' Milllon, But the richest thing in this line came in a Chicago dispatch Saturday, and had a prompt and hilarious circulation’ through ~Wall Street oftices. It was an abstract of an in- torview with Trustee Nelson Morris, who says that. the reason why _tho trustees sold their certificatés wus Because the speculative methods ofy Wall Street are distastoful to western wembers of the wnisky trust. After that thera is nothing more to be said, However, Af Nols Morris will keep at Wall street. iv will square its account with him, sooner or later. S0 far in the deal ho is anead the usual mil lion. All westorn operators, when they make & successful turn in stocks, reslize nover less thai. a million, agcording to the Chicago dispatches, Possibly the overflow- ing abundance of money here just now makes it seem easy to pick up a few millions here and there. Money Plling Up, The bank statement showed another large increase in the surplus reserve, which has risen to #i,000,000 while the deposits have attained the unprecedented figure of §500,- 000,000, ‘This tells of the stanaing of general trade,such as invariably follows a great finan- olal convulsion such as’ the Bariug failure. ‘The last time the money accumulatea in like volumwe in the bauks here was the period fu!- lowing the severe financial disturbances of 1854. By July of the year following the sur- lus reserve hed risen to over 864,000,000, 'rom that level it was gradually drawn down again as trade again expanded. But 1t must be rememvered that Wall street is always discounting the future, and the accumulation of money now is an excel- lent thing for the bond market, since it forces anvestors 1o buy securities, which return them better rates of interest than they can get in the loan murkets, aud for the same reu- son it makes a better demand for all dividend paying stocks, which again reacts favorably on the smaller von-dividend pay- ors. As the accumulated money is drawn away later by reviving trade and speculation, the properties represented by the securities crease their earnings and justify the higher Prices. At present thereis @ growing de- mand for bonds, and a constant absorption of them by investors, which takes up not only all that have been waiting in the banking bouses there, but what Europe is selling us as well. For example all the receut issue of the Rock 1sland debentures have gone off, FORELGN FINANCIAL BEVIEW, Chill's Bonds Galned Considerable on the Disappearance of the War Clouds. Loxvon, Jan. 81, —Discounts were firmor @uriog the past week, though there was 0o demand. The gquotations were 1% per cent for threo months and 114 per cent for short, tbe withdrawal of the gold for Russia amounting to_£1,000,000. part in sovereigns anc partin Russian imperials, changed the aspact of the money market. Paris housos continue to buy Russian gold. The directors of the Bank of England, with the view of checking the outflow, slightly raised tho rice of imperials. Further Kussian orders or gold are expected. Remittances to Spain and §Buenos Ayres are also probable. The prospect of a return of the recent money plethora is therefore remote. The feature of tho week was the sharp fall in silver on offers of large amovunts from New York. The lowest price touched on Wodnesday was 41%;, being only one-eighth of 1 per cent below the lowest recorded in May, 1885, The advance of the Bank of England’s rate conduced to India’s buying freely und caused a recovery of one-fourth of 1 per cent. Mexican dollars command only their melting value, which is 114d below the price of standard bars. Rupee paper, in sympathy with silver, fell 15 per cent. On the Stock exchange during the week past business was oxtromely slack. Prices were irregular. The closing of the speculative accounts of Hume Webster, the suicide, leda 10 sowe sharp movements in prices. Severul members of the house weroe hit severely, but the bulk of the losses. arising from Wabster's frauds appear to have fallen on bill dis counters. Among the high olass investments sccurities, British funds were svid owing to the withdiawals of gold and dropped % per cent. Foreign securities were heavy almost without exception, Greek bonds lost 4 per cent on the week: Mexicans and Spanish and Egyptian bonds from !5 to | per centand Argenilies 114 per cent. Chilians gained 3 per cent on the strength of news that Chii's difficulty with the United States was being arranged. British railway securities were drm, the division announced during the week equalling expectations, * American railway securities were irregu- lar, fluctuating sharply under the shift in the nature of New York orders, adverse rumors concerning various leading kinds and the closing of Hume Webster's operations. Louievills & Nashville apd Chicago, Mil- waukee & St. Paul stocks, in which Webster had a large account for a rise, were especially affected, but the immense amounts of both sold_ hore were ab sorbed immediately. Denver & Rio Grande preferred became strong on the reports of the road’s amalgamation with another com- pany. The week's variations in prices of American railway securities including the following: Increases—Denver & Rio Grande preferred, 31¢ per cent; Lake Shore, 11§ per cent; Denver & Rio Grande common and Wabash proferred, 1 per cent each: Union Pacitic shares, &¢ per cent; Northern Pacific and Wabash debentures, i¢ per cent each. Decreases—Louisville & ashville, 3 per cent; Norfolk & Western proferred, 11 per cent: Central Pacific, 1 per cent; Atchison and New York, Pennsylvania & Ohio first mortgage, !¢ per cent each, Canadian rail- way securities were flat. Grand Trunk first and second preferrea both lost on the week. The securities of the Mexican railways were considerably sold, First and seconds both suffered a decline of 24 per cent for the week and ordinary declined 8 of 1 per cent. Amongst the miscellancous securities Rio Tintos declined 14 of 1 per cent, and Slmore copper 5 of 1 per cent, while Bells Asbosto shares gained i{ of 1 per -cent. Among the issues of the week was Elmore's American aud Canadian Copper company with a capital of £200,000.

Louis had 1iberal selliug orders here and some of the largest local lonss dropped thelir holdings through sheer discouragement. Pardridge and other local bears sold heavily for u time the purchuses azuinst puts and the covering by shorts who had a satisfuctory profit ubsorbed the property very readily. But finally the continuous stream of offerings bogun to teil, and buyers aruwing out, there was u recession from early figures.

Consldering the fact’ that compared with the week previous cattlo receipts show n de- crease of 3,400 head, an advance in prices of both beof steers and_butcner stock of some- thing I1ke 13c to 23c is a rather unsutisfactory showing.
