The New York circular of Henry Clews says: Conflicting influences ‘e kept the stock market fairly active and irregular, affording excellent opportunities to the professional trader. sided as a year ago. The facts that prices are very high, and that the maintenance of pres- ent inflation is only possible through unexpect- ed continuance of prosperity, are becoming generally recognized and inducing a_growing Epirit of conservatism. When Stock Exchange transactions have risen from 54,000,000 shares in 1896 to 253,000,000 in 1901 it seems time to call a halt for refiection. During that same period many of the active stocks have more than doubled in value; bank loans in New York have risen from $467,000,000 to $875,000,000; pigiron production has doubled: our exports have risen over 40 per cent and imports nearly 30 per cent; while prices of staple commiodities average one-third higher than in 1901. Such extraordinary prosperity is‘ of course highly self-satisfying; but its altogether exceptional character throws the strongest doubt upon its h jevel permanence. Not a few men whose t is entitled to respect belleve that the ¢ rush of business and traffic will con- tinue another year. Nobody wishes to disa- grce with them and cvery ome will hope their Views may prove correct; vet facts cannot be ignored, and these point unmistakably toward veaction, notwithstanding there are quarters in which the onward movement may continue or break out afresh in spots hitherto neglected. There is for instance strong evidence of a boom in real te, which is invariably sought for investment when other fields bave lost their ractions, but such operations have always the culmination of an American marked *“boom.” The two most likely starting points of re- action will be contraction by the banks, and tue influence of new competition. Of the for- mcr there is no indication as yet, except that banks are becoming more cautious lenders sce the recent practical failures of two or toree large industrial enterprises. Iy the monetary outlook is satisfactory, and ning will ao more toward keeping us in a and prosperous condition than wise re- on the part of the banks in granting The country is still in need of a sci- and elastic currency system, the ab- sence of which vastly increases the ‘danger of panic tim isut Congress sleeps, forgetful that the promise of two national eléctions to provide a sound currency system are still unfulfiled. What if the country should fail to give the party in power a third chance to redeem ante-elec- tion pledges? New competition is now growing with suffi- cnt rapidity to be a factor in the industrial res. New plants and enlargements are be- constantly started and others projected. demand for commodities seems y active to keep all establishments loyed: but price concessions are be- ade, and coming reports are likely to icss favorable balance sheets than last The statement of the Corporation, though a good one, was not tisfactory as expected.

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.—The stock market | turned from its recent consistent downward j course to-day and enjoved something of a f | rally. The demand was on a falrly large | scale, but the market showed a tendency to fall into intense dullness and developed a hesitating tone on the advance. There were & number of reactions during the day, but the closing was near to the top level, but dull- ness and wavering still very manifcst. The demand from the short interest was a pal- pable influence in the rise. Evidences of sup- | port were seen early in the day in some of the stocks, which were chief arguments for bear attacks, notably in Union Pacific and other transcontinentals. This served to intimidate the bears, although they renewed their selling on advances. The fact was manifest, how- ever, that the more urgent selling had been dispdsed of iu previvus days, and the efforts of “the bears induced little liquidation. A number of Incidents aided the bulls in turn- ing the market against their opponents. There was a striking demonstration in Sugar on th: strength of the hearing accorded by the Ways and Mcans Committee at Washington to the advocates of a reduction of duties on Cuban The increase in_the dividend rate from 2 to 3 per cent on New York, Chicago and St. Louis second preferred relieved some apprehension that there would be no increase, although the distribution was not as large as some speculators have claimed. New York Central developed strength early in the day and had risen to the highest point before the announcement of the new stock issue and the subscription rights to stockholders. The price was inclined to sag after the announcement, as new bond and cabital issues have been in | disfavor with speculators recently. The price | of the stock has indicated for some time past that rights of some sort were accruing, as the divectors’ statement now indicates was the fact. The statement of the country's for- cign trade, for December was regarded as favorable. ' The heavy decline in exports of breadstuffs, principally of corn, was expected | The Wecline in this item accounts for practi- cally the whole of the decrease in the total ‘el]xofla for the month, which was about | 88,800,000, comparea with the previous Decem- | ber. 'This shows that the declining tendency | In the exvorts of manufactured products has | been arrested, as was first Indicated last month. The increase in the imports for the month kas resulted in a falling off of the trade balance in our favor altogether of over $20,000,000, compared with the previous De- | cember, but' the increase in imports is not regarded as an unfavorable factor at pres- ent, as it is made up in part of crude articles for use in manufactures and of broducts for which domestic manufacturers are not able to il all the orders they receive. The large &ain by the banks from the Sub-Treasury and the retrn of the flow of currency from the interfor give assurance of a favorable bank return on Saturday, and the heaviness of sterl- ing exchange indicates that no gold will go out this week. There was also a subsidence to-day of recent vague rumors of financial troubles in the commercial world. The sharp drop in | People’s Gas was due to the refusal of a court 0 grant an Injunction against the Chicago 'y ordinance reducing the rate for gas to cents per thousand. Its influence on the general market was only slight. The active bonds generally moved in sympathy with stocks. Total sales, par value, $3,225,000.

After yesterday's demoralization a firm opening on cables and dry weather were very reassuring to the bull professionals. The effect of the Phillips heavy liquldation had evaporated and | the market was on its old footing again. Per- haps the most noticeable result of yesterday's tumult was the unusual heavy outside business. Shortly .after the opening of May, which was K@%c to %@%c higher at 8lyc to Blfic, there was an effort made at Wu e market. and at-one time on a revival of com- mission buying a recovery seemed imminent. As it was, May rose to 81lac. Bears, however, | had the bulls virtually by the horns and pressed prices steadily on. Heavy selling set in on all sides. News came that Liverpool was de- clining. Some shorts took advantage of the advance to cover for profits, but the amount o Wheat thus absorbed was trifling. Weak holders everywhere were forced out by the heavy calls for margins by houses that feared other fail- ures might result from 's hard pres- sure. To abet the beas rgument, the coarse also. " Cash _corn wi it during the last hour slid off rapidly to 80c, and at the close of the session was 'Hk.‘}flc lower at Pullman Palace Car '] year ago. ‘Primary receipts were 45,000 bush- els, compared with 620,000 bushels. Seaboard clearances in wheat and flour equaled 162,000 bushels. The seaboard reported 48 cars taken Corn started firm and higher with wheat and on fairly good cables. Some of the corn sold yesterday was replaced and there was some small country buying. Recelpts were very light, but country offerings were reported freer, When wheat advanced corn followed after, but soon turned heavy on its own poor cash situ- ation, and later broke badly in wheat com- pany. Cash houses reported a poor demand. Good weather curtailed the amount needed for stock raising, and the absence of demand worked against the pit. Liquidation on all sides set in about the noon hour and prices slumped in a panicky fashion, May, Which had opened steady at 65%@65l:c and sold up to 85%c. dropped almost 2 cents to G3%c. At this figure shorts took profits enough to steady the market at the close. * The_ session ended with May weak, 1%c down at 63%c. Receipts were 83 cars, Farly in the day oats ruled rather firm and independent of the other pits. Provisions were fairly active. They started out with good evidence of a bull market on a country demand and a strong hog market at the yards. When corn collapsed, however, the carly bought stuff was thrown overboard and prices slid off. May pork closed 10c down at $17 07%4; May lard, 7i%c lower at $9 70 and May ribs.
