Clews’ New York circular says: ile the stock market is in an intrinsically und condition the long desired advance ha: been deferred for reasons that are somewhat perplexing to the average operator. The best explenation that can be offered is the wide divergence of opinion respecting the future course of prices. ' Those who belleve in a higher market argue that liquidation has been severe; that stocks have largely passed from weaker into etronger hands; that prices are consid- erably below the best of 1899; that prosperity continues throughout the country without signs that the great railroad systems | rial that x there 18 a good demand for Jabor; labor have risen; the Bank from 6 10 & from 4% to 4 per cent; that funds are coming to New York: that there is little to fear from “ongress pending a Presidential election; g g B D T T T control prices are in favor of an ad- that money 18 easler; thut of England rate has been reduced G per cent and the Bank of France “On_the other hand there are many, and their number i8 Increasing, who believe recent liquidation was mecessary and beneficial; that | & great number of buyers were crippled by the December panic, and now have neither the ability nor disposition to re-enter the mr- ket; that some of the big cliques which con- trol the situation are not ready for an ad- vance; that the Transvaal war, with the pros. pect of long continuance and a large issue consols, is an effectual hindrance to any bull campaign: that the old rates for money will not be renewed; that the higher level of interest rates is against maintaining fancy prices for securities paying small returns: that the present activity in business cannot continue much longer without receiving set-backs: fn short, that present and prospective prosperit: has been amply discounted, and that a period of rest is required for recuperation of force end_readjustment of values. 7 the two positions we have no hesitation mbout expressing our belief in the former, or in an ultimately higher market. There 15, however, sufficient force in the argument of the other side to command attention and in- duce caution. At the moment there is little disposition to buy stocks, and some fresh stim- ulus 18 needed to mttract the outside public. Among the big leaders there is no appearance of concerted action, such @s is necessary to any bull campalgn; on the contrary, there are strapg evidences that some of them are work- | on_ Paris served somewhat | terests helped the market for railroads. | the exports of manufactured d of the estimated dafly | concerns are enjoying good | that wages in the lower departments of | * | secure a larger line of long stocks. The Boer war has become an.mportant indirect influence upon the American markets, inasmuch as an issue of consols, which seems inevitable and which would be considered desirable invest- | ments by a certain class of buyers abroad, ! would certainly cause more or less selling of high grade securities, American as well as others. Little concern 18 felt about any pros- | pective drain upon our gold supplies, for the | reason that they are ample to meet all prob- | able requirements. A decisive British victory might cause a sharp rally in the stock market but it should not be overlooked that the British | have an exceedingly difficult task before them | in capturing Pretorfa, involving as it must the cost of much life and treasure.”” i NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—The stock market con- tinued Aull and without much life, but there was an unmistakable undertone of strength and the character of the small buying demand showed a substantial improvement. Dealings in the highly speculative industrials still pre dominated, but the proportions of the dealings in them were not so excessive. There w & notable movement in the Leather stocks early in the day, but it was not well tained. Third Avenue suffered a violent de- cline of 6% points, but recovered 3. Other- wise the group manifested strength under the influence of covering by the outstanding short interest, who were influenced by the general strength of the market. Reports of a military | success for the British made the London mar- ket strong and was reflected here. The up- ward course of sterling exchange and exchange to neutralize this influence in spite of the continued fall in the English discount rate. The decided improve- ment in the buying of railroads was con- spicuous in the Grangers, Southern Pacific and Baltimore and- Ohio, though the latter stock met free offerings to realize. The railroad 1 generally was benefited sympathetically by th strength. The St. Paul statement for the second week in January encouraged buyi view of the increase of $311. earnings, which in turn had been greater than the year before by $144,35. The supplementary | report of the Baltimore and Ohio for the six | months ending December 31, 159, was an in- [ fluence of strength, with a and rentals for that period of $1,201513. State- nts on authority of the account of the | Southern Pacific stock by Union Pacific in- | The increased grain movement, a good export de- mand for wheat and the continued increase in the money supply were all factors of strength. So also was the statement of the country's foreign trade for December. The preliminary | statement of agricultural exports had shown a decrease from last December of and as the total exports for the month s & decrease for December of 1598 of only $14,565, 431 the difference is attributed to increase in products to_the | amount of $11,646,937. Taking the calendar year as a whole the decline in the excess of mer- | chandise exports is about offset by the decline | in excess of gold imports, leaving the favor- | able balance of trade about the same as the year before. | Business in bonds was not heavy, but prices were firm. Total sales, par value, '$1,225,000. United States 4s advanced % in the bid price. NEW YORK STOCK LIST. | Shares Closing Sold, Bld. 125 Atchison . 1% Atchison prefd ...

The Bank of England got £5000 in eagles. The week's influx of gold was £5000. More shipments to India are certain. The country is trying to secure the gold it requires from Australia, but the exchange mar- ket indicates that London must bear the whole burden. .
