The wind “high” means high barometic pressurs and is usually accompanied with fair weather; “low” refers to low pres- sure and is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains. ‘Lows’ usually first appear on the Washington coast. When the pressure is high in the interior and low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the coast, rain is probable: but when the “low’” is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is fm- probable. With a “high” in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the Cali- fornia coast. warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—The money market falled to show an easier tone to-day and Jan- i prob- tons | market. | produce an | uary's boom in the price of stocks which some people had expected to begin failed to arrive on this, the first business of the new year. On the contrary, there was quite a flurry in the money market before the day passed, and the calling of loans precipitated something very like & squeeze. The rate for call money ran up to 6 per cent and loans were placed at that amount, though offerings were made later at 21 per cent. There was no actual loan reported during the day, however. It is difficult to say, however, how far lower rates at the close may have been manipulative. Cer- tainly the stock market all day did not show evidences of a plentitude of funds available for speculation. The exchange market hard- ened, the actual rate for exchange rising to $4 844 This was said to be due to an invest- ment demand based on a presumption of easier rates tor money here in the near future, and looking to the lending of money abroad. A perceptible easing of money in London and Berlin did not serve to intertere with this de- mand. The disbursement of January interest by the Government and the further sums pald out for the redemption of Pacific bonds were expected to afford relief to the money market and to offset the payment of 38,500,000, which | is to be made on Wednesday by the Union Pa- cific syndicate to the Govirnment, being the final payment. Whatever additional sums were released to the money market to-day, the large operations pending seem to have made neces- sary the shitting of loans which résulted in the afternoon stiffening of rates. Of the ordi- nary disbursements for dividends and iInterest, it would become money market. the money market, it is important to bear in mind that the Government has now on deposit in New York banks upward of $33,000,000. It is said by sub-treasury officials that the Gov- ernment is not likely to take up these de- posits for a reasonable time to come. But on ’tht other hand, it lies within the option of the immediately available for the As bearing on the future of banks to surrender the deposits by taking up the bonds which they have placed with the | Government as security. | Such a surrender of these deposits would naturally tend to sustain the rates for money in the market. The situation in the money market kept the tone of stocks heavy and re- stricted the trading within narrow limits The | heaviness as added to by the pessimistic utterance by the president of the St. Paul as to the unprofitable nature of competitive busi- ness at prevajling rates. Foreign markets failed to reflect any appre- hension of the situation in the Far E: Declines were general and reached point | in_other cases. The bond market was dull, but prices held firm.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—The Evening Post's London financial cablegram: Business in the stock markets here has not yet been fully re- sumed, but the tome was distinctly cheerful to-day, politics having no effect for the mo- me; A feature was the sharp fall in gold to 77s 11d, due to the rise in German exchange, dividends and the prospects of a release of vernment dividends on Wedensday. Amer- icans opened firm, with other markets, but | gave way later and closed rather dull on real- izations. The Standard’s cable from its New York cor- respondent stating that the New York Times was about to publish an article showing the disastrous effects of rate cutting partly pre. judiced the market. The undertone, however. was good and hopeful and a rise is confidently looked for. | | | i MONEY MARKET. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—Money on call, firm, | 2:.G6 per cent; last loan, 313; closed, 24@3.

Liverpool showed %d decline to begin with, and Northwest receipts did not by any means suggest an immediate falling off in volume. These were the features | in the early news which apparently created a desire to sell at the start and also exlln-' guished for the time being any inclination to buy. In the first thirty minutes' trading May declined to Sitc. Trading at the best was rather slow. Chicago receipts were liberal. About the only distinctly bullish item in the day’s statistical news was the clearances from Atlantic ports, their amount being w in Wheat and Flour to 861,000 bushels. an- nouncement of these figures injected a little firmness into the dropping out market, and May, which in the meantime had dropped to 9lc, reaching that figure about 12 o'clock, re- covered slowly to Sii4c. It declined n to Slic, but in the last few minutes' trading re- acted again to 9114@91%c, where it closed.

DRIED FRUITS, RAISINS, NUTS, ETC. The market is quiet at the revised prices. New York mail advices report: *California Prunes are firmer, and in some quarters a bullish feeling is noted. Stocks are said to be well cleaned up on the spot, and supplies in the hands of jobbers and retall distributers are believed to be small, consequently some holders look for a large movement early in the Spring. with higher prices. The export de- mand alifornia Prunes, particularly from Northern Europe, is reported to continue, ship- ments to the other side having been, it is said, unusually large this year on account of the 'scarcity and high cost of the French Fruit. Apricots are in demand for export, and although the home trade Is moderate the feel- ing is firm, stock being reported rather scarce. Peaches are scarce, but apart from the occasional export orders there seems to be_little doing. Prunce, carload Jots.
