NEW YORK, Feb. 16.—There was much con- fusion and doubt regarding the speculative outlonk manifest in the movement of prices in to-day’s stock market and the professional traders were obliged to change sides meveral | times Auring the course of the short seesion. The.opening strength seemed to'be due to Lon- | don operations and gave way Iimmediately efter the cpening. There was manifest ap- prehension over the showing to be made by the bank statement. The steel stocks were re- actionary, partly over the delay in the an- nouncement of the terms of the merger and partiy over the probability of a probing by the Industrial commission. The internal dis- | sensions In the smelting company were re- sponsible for the weakness of these securities and reported diseatisfaction on the part of nglish minority etockholders in Anaconda was reflected in & decline in that stock and in Amalgamated Copper. The metal stocks ai & whole, therefore, made rather & poor show- ing. Tin Piate, National Steel preferred and Federal Steel preferred were exceptions, Tin Plste rising at one time 2% over last night and closing with a net gain of 1%. The strength of Burlington and of Delaware and Fudson made the feature of the market. They modifying what promised to be a ing into duliness and heaviness. As list e over a point for ing stocks. General Electric lost 5% of its rise. The bank statement proved tuny as weak as the pessimists had prophesied and un- mistakably constitutes a signal to spec- ulators, although the serenity shown by the finuncial world in face of the showing prevents any acute apprehension. The ulation in stocks quieted down this week. pause in the excited upward movcment of stocks brought inevitable aency & i esipiiities still hanging over funner important developments xoou.‘ oW additional consolidation of railroad In =nd extension of the d prunes there | es are ‘scarce on the | re over Washington and | .

It approached the environs of the “natural squeeze.”” The talk was of empty cribs, of farmers who showed no disposition to sell and of the exceedingly poor showing of new arrivals when they came under the eye of the inspectors. May opened %@4c lower at 40%c o 40%c under pressure from outside in- terests. The crowd, however, was bullish most to a man and the market rallied to 40%c. On the advance there was renewed outside buying led by St. Louis interests, but on realiz- ing sales May reacted to 40%c. Under a heavy general demand the price shot up to 41%c and soon_after %@%c over, yesterday at Al%e, with the demand still clamorous, where it closed. The Spartan spirit of the huil interest n wheat became apparent when, with only the reflected strength of corn to help it, the wheat price was maintained against a’ collection of bearish news. Liverpool and continental cables were weak. May wheat opened %@%c lower at Tilc to Ti%c and rallied with corn to 75%¢ during the forenoon. Following this ths market responded to the break in corn by drop- ping to 75%@T%c. The final upturn in corn carried wheat up to 76%@7%c and the close was unchanged at Tokc. Oats were fairly active and higher in sym- palhy with corn. May closéd 4@%c higher at 2. Provisions were moderately active. The mar- ket opened lower because of heavy hog receipts. Anadvance followed In response to the corn strength, but this merely served to cause sell- | ing by local Interests and the market reacted May pork closed sc lower and lard and ribs each 4c depressed.
