McADIE. 5 Forccast Official. 5 EASTERN MARKETS. - New York Stock Market. | NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—There was an itempt on the part of an element of professional opera- | tors to awaken some speculative interest in the i market this morning, but the general disposi- tion was to acquiescence in dullness and nes- | lect after yesterday's disappointed expectation of a decislon in the Northern Securities case. | It is the general opinion in the financial dis- | trict that any proncunced financial activity must await the delayed decision in this case, or some striking new development In gencral conditions. The professional element which at- | tempted to contest this obvious tendency this rorning was making very moderate progress when the announcement came of engagements of gold for export on Thursday to the amount 5.750.000. The market then immediately | flattened out, the greater part of the gains | Leing lost and was neglected and letharglc for the rest of the day. The day's small busi- ness was largely congested in Amalgamated Copper, Southern Pacific, Sugar and Metropoli- tan. The dealings otherwise, even in the great transcontinental and Pacific rallroads and in United States Steel, were of quite insignificant proportions. Amalgamated Copper was weak on the sharp break in the London copper mar- ket and on the first reaction for copper in the llocal metal market since the market turned upward. The strength of Sugar was based on the recent stock argument o. a_probable ex- | emption of Cuban sugar duties. The operaticns in Southern Pacific ‘were largely in the hands of the speculative fool in the stock. Metro- politan Street Railway recovered sharply from yesterday’s ‘depression on the> assurance from W. C. Whitney that his coming retirement from business would not involve the liquida- tion of his holdings. There were some. wide movements among_the less prominent stocks. Lackawarna rose 3 points higher than yester- | day's high price, but reatted 4 points. ~Nash- ville, Chattanooga and St. Louls advanced 101, points on light t sactions and without ex- planation. Minneadolis, S8t. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie ‘stocks rose 4 and 6 points respect- tvely for the common and preferred, but saved net gains of only 2% and 3%. American Ex- press and United States Express made sharp #ains. The engagement of gold for-export: had only a slight hardening influence on the money market, but the doubt as to the extent to which the movement may reach caused some uneasiness over the outlook. It is belleved that last week's large loan expansion repre- sented the shifting obligations due to foreign creditors to the local banks, and that the gold outgo is in payment of loans. The deelaration of @ $2. dividend on Standard Ofl, -the sama 25 for the first quarter of last year and the year before, regarded as of some sigaifi- cance, as it was feared that:the recent fall in the price of ofl wouid lead to a reduction of tie dividend.

Receipts of wheat during th three days, 177.000 centals, including 176,000 Ameri- CHICAGO, Feb. 4—Corn again attracted the i most attention on the floor, although trade was not large. Early buying on the cold weather reports, especially by the Southwest and some of the local crowd for Invectment, occasioned a falr adyance. There was some bullish new from Kansas City and cables were strong, though Liverpool, reported a dull market. Re- | celpts were small. May opened with some i strength and sold up to 64%c, but selling by lecals and predictions of moderating weather broke the market toward the end of the ses- sion. * May sold down to 63%c, but rallied | again on good covering and sold at 637 @64c.. | This revival, however, was not long-lived and | May closed easy, %c down at 6312@63%c. i i Wheat had rather a dull day. The change in prices was limited to shc. The cold weather, | while having an independent bullish effect in s pit, influenced strength more by its direct effect through corn. The early sentiment was bullish corn, but later wheat turned inde- pendent and bearish. The local crowd sold and prices declined. Receipts, both local and | Northwestern, were small and the world's | visiblé supply decreased 741,000 bushels. On | these influences May started Shc up at /78%c jand sold up a shade. When the sentiment | turned the market held very well considering | the selling pressure and May closed easy %@ ! e lower at 784@i8%c. New York reported discouraging export news, saying that the | business was largely confined to Manitoba | wheat which was being secured ~under | prices for American. | Oats were again dull and prices fluctuated in sympathy with corn over a very, narrow range. May closed steady, Y%c down at 4435@4i%c. | | | There was a demand for pork at the open- | ang that carried prices up fairly well. Al ‘_;l;heqr:lev:nu no change in this market.
