The New York circular of Henry Clews sa: Cligue operations infused a fair degree.of activity on the Stock Exchange. Of strong and substantial leadership there are few signs yet it s e apparent that the heavy buy- ers who took stocks during the liquidation of 1902 have been holding for better figures, and that to this e at least they were working in harmony with the lesser cliques. The re- ent sdvance however, was sufficient to in- duce profit-taking at the first signs of weak- ness, and this explained the reaction which followed In the latter part of the week. A powerful leverage was available in the £reat abundance of money offered on call on ~asy terms which makes 5 per cent stock look fairly cheap at present figures; especially in view of the stronger foundation resulting from pest liquidation. It is quite evident that these are two principal factors in the market AL present and it i premature to assume that their force has yet been expended. No doubt we should & much stronger market were not for the probability of war in the Far East the chances of an unfavorable Northern Securities decision and the deterrent effect of an approaching Presidential campaign. These onsiderations seem gquite sufficient to hold speculation within safe limits; for disturbing developments of these uncertainties The so a disquieting fea. as v “deranges trade in the aple but, seriously affects manufacturers and distributors of cotton goods. GENERAL CONDITIONS The condition of the country, es a whole, » both satiefactory and sound. Our farming lasses are exceptionally prosperous because demand generally Sas overtaken supply. Hi prices are being obtained for mearly all agr Cultural products, and the situation is suc thet the Americin farmer seems assured of another prosperous r. As for our indus- trial classes they are certainly better off than ever in their history. The only difficulty bere is that wages have risen to an almost prohibitive point. and enterprise is consequent- ¥ checked until necessary concessions are made . concessions which would mean no hard- *hip to labor but simply diminish the number of unemployed. Among the mercantile classes the situation is exceptionally sound. In this quarter there has been little overtrading, and our merchants. as & class, have been singu- arly conservative and fortunate in_avolding 100 rapld expansion. Of course they have been highly favored by the wonderful growth f the country dn population and resources; vertheless the comparative absence of the epeculative spirit among our trading classes hag been & wholesome and encouraging feature, THE MANUFACTURING SITUATION. “‘When we come to.the manufacturing situ- on we touch the weakest spot in the nation. Our great industrial combinations may be the best ever made to do the world work; but they have been seriousl start by the financial uses which are too amiliar 10 every one. In many cases they are 100 big and_cumbersome to adjust themselves «adily to changing conditions, and in near! all cases they are so weighted down with watered securities as to make their future still the most serious financial problem of the | Tuture be made will p Some day the readjustment here must e complete; but that contingency be postponed to a later date should antry continue otherwise pros- perous, and in all probability will then come =0 graduvzlly as to avold Further, it must not be forgotten that as said above, the tuation in this respect has been immensels hened by the forced laqui- @ation of 1908 which effectually removed many of the weakest spots. STOCKS AND BONDS. There has been a surprisingly good demand or bonds and many of the recent new issues have been readily taken. Our rallroads show & disposition to g0 =low in their improvements, owing chiefly to the unsettied condition of the iron and steel markets As steel comes down however, to & more normal level orders are likely to increase and the railroads will no doubt continue their outlays. At a later period. therefore, it would cause no surprise If their demands upon the money market were to expand. The effect of war would unques- tionably be temporarily depressing. because of the strain which any mpose upon the international money markets American sheres in common with others would be sold to provide funds. The decline, how- r. would not be serious. and might as veual be discounted in advance. Just now the Pres- idential compaign does not cut much of a figure. This probably explained by the be- Mef that a n 1 of the issues of the last two campaigne is impossible, and that In com- parison with them it will be a quiet affair. ““The general outiook for the market is con- sequently fevorable. There are some im- portant uncertainties, however and prices have aiready had an Important recovery that unfavorabie developments might easily precipi- tate sharp reactions. This means a good trading market and a profit on.all good stocks purchased on the sharp bresk.”” Internal Revenue Collections.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—Stock market opera- tions to-day were under the same constraint s for several days past, and the movement railroads, ir- v | Of vrices again became iwavering and uncer- | tain atter yesterday's decided gownward move- ment. The sharp break in the morning. while prices of cotton were slumping and the sub- | sequent rally with cotton. pointed to a sy pathy between the two movements which leaves little doubt that the collapse in cotton is view- | ed with more or less apprehension in Wall | street. The general apprehension that the long-deferred crisis in the Russo-Japanese con- test was at last at hand was a factor in the stagnation of stocks bere as well as in for- | ign stock markets. The further jump in grain and the drop in cotton are the empirical conditions of a warlike outcome. The highly artificial conditions in the commodity markets, due to the excessive speculative commitments, give them a fewerish sensibility that robs them { of safety as an index of conditions, The most important event of the day to the financial | merkets was the ten days' notice given by the Secretary of the Treasury of a demand for payment of 20 per cent of Government de- posits with national bank: $30.000.000 payable at New York. It is highly | probabie, therefore, that interior Government | depositories will draw on thelr deposits with | New York banks to meet the Government's | cali. As the Secretary's call says nothing of urther withdrawals of deposits in contempla- ion, some relief was afforded from the effect used by intimations heard yesterday that the first call was soon to be followed by an- other for 10 per cent more of deposits. The conjectural estimates of the effects upon the ments have counted upon th pald directly from the United as o mu portion to be States treasury h additinonal resources released to the mony rket. The realization has been growing that a larger portion than at first supposed would have to be met hy withdrawal of Government deposits, and the quiet ac- ceptance given by the markets to the Secre- tary’s call shows that its amount had been pretty mccurately foreseen in financial circles. As to the effect on the money market of these withdrawals, it is clearly dependent upon the skill with which the banking with the payment is carried through. A re- vival of war talk was responsible for the sharp recession in prices just at the close, which rather weak. Buving of United States Steel stock at an advance of a _bvoint was without explanation. and was 3 factor in the recovery of prices from the opening depression szm'zm"n irregular. Total sales, par value, United States bonds were unchanged on call. NEW YORK STOCK LIST. Stock— Sales. Hi § Atchison ... 22,500 B e Atchison pfd 600 Balt & Ohlo . 18,100 Bait & Ohio pfd... .....

NEW ORLEA Middling, 15 5-16c. NEW 'YORK, Feb. 4.—The cotton market opened weak at a decline of 47@5 points on the old and 15@20 points on the new crop months, under continued liquidation and sell- ing for short account, accompanied by the wildest excitement and confusion. Cables re- ported a net decline of 20@26 points at the hour of local opening and with no_show of bull support, the news from the Far East threatening and bear confidence strengthened, | the market after some little irregularity turned very weak. After March had been _forced down to 15.30c, May to 15.59c and July to 15.74c, a net loss on these months of about 61 to 66 pol of the bull leader, who bid for May and July, restored confidence to some extent. The NgWw Orleans crowd bogan buying in volume and the market steadled up until it was within 10 or 15 points of yesterday's close. Follow- ing this the market in the late trading exhib- ited the most sensational fluctuations of the day or season, or for that matter in the history of the exchange. Shortly before clos- ing a rumor was circulated that war had been deciared between Russia and Japan, and this precipitated the market Into the wildest con- fusion. Long cotton was fairly, poured out from all stdes. July broke about 70 points in 20 minutes, while in New Orleans it lost nearly 1068 points in the same time. From 15.83¢c, the high point for March locally, that option was depressed to 14.77c; May sold down from 16.12c to 15.09c, and July from 16.22c to 15.23c, these prices representing net de- clines of 114@116 points.

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.—All cereals made new high-rgcord ‘marks to-day. Active buying on the apgparent certainty of war was the cause. Owing to the critical state of affairs in the Far East wheat traders were keved up to a high pitch at the opening. Shorts were so energetlc in their efforts to get under cover and the pit was so bare of offerings that before the initial demand was satisfled the price May was bid up 4@%c to 1%@Ii%c abor last night's close, saies being made at 944¢ to Y53c. July was up ke to lc at 8ic to 853c, When May reached 95%c, which is & new hig { record mark for the crop, active profit-taking set in. Large quantities of wheat were put out by commission houses and there was con- siderable shoet selling. There was also some lling in July, which was credited to the leading long operator. The bull trader, how ever, did not open business at any time dur- {ing 'the day. As the session advanced the | market became quieter. Prices eased off under | a load of liquidi until at one time July sol dunder yeste final figure, or at 84%c, | & decline of 1%c from the top. May sold off to Oic, with littie demand at the decline. The market remained quiet and comparatively steady until near the close, when another sharp Tal'y occurred. On renewed-rumors of warlike moves commission houses became active buy- ers and shorts again started on a wild rush to cover. The last few minutes of trading were almost as tumultuous as were the opening ones, and the volume of business was exceedingly heavy. Prices at_the close were near the top, May being at 95%@9bc, a net gain for the g;v of 1%c, July closed 74@1c higher at 86%@ . The opening in corn was full of excitement, as was the early trading In wheat. At first it all rush to buy. May was up %@%c to 14@1%c at B5%c to G6lic. Within the first few minutes of trading May sold at 56%c, but &t that price the market ran into heavy offer- ing from holders. Under heavy realizing sales prices gradually worked their way down until | May had declined to 55c. Shortly before the close 2 renewed demand sprang up, which car- | ried_prices well toward the top, final figures on May being at 56c, a net gain for the day of 1@1%¢. Oats had the same wild experience as the other markets at the opening. prices going up sharply on general commission house buying and active covering by shorts. May opened | 1ic to e higher at 46%c to 46lc, and within fifteen minutes had advanced to 46%c. The de- | cided rise brought out heavy iiquidation. May went back to 4blzc. Another rally occurred near the end of the session and May closed %c higher at 46%e. Trading provisions op2ned with a big move- | ment similar to the conditions witnessed in the grain pits. Offerings were very lght at the start, which resulted in a considerable ad- vance in prices. Later there was heavy selling of May lard by a prominent long. With the Dbreak in grains the selling became general and most of the early gain was .ost. The market | rallied later with wheat and corn and the close was strong, with May pork up i3 September .
