Vet the ques- tlon of an export of gold rests largely upon this. Our nernl exports are continuing at an undiminished rate. January's total breg stufls export was noarly equal to that Deceniber, though southérn ports sent out a much lurger proportion. Just now the one chictly encouraging element in tho situation 1% the fact that we areieducing our foreizn indebtedness at an astonishingly rapid rate and preparing the wiy to finuncial power, which, us i nation, we hiave never before en- Joyed.

St Puul was pressed tor sale also, and it 1made no response to good showing of the earnings. In the forenoon New Englund was the special strong point, sud It scored a rise of 14 por cont, but fatied to hold It in the late trading, On the other hand, Ohlougo Gas was made the spectul polut of attack by th | bears ‘in_‘the "early “dealings, uud it was forved off nearly 153 percent from its lust | might's figures. “The general I'st opened with | continued pressure. and first pricos were all | lower.
