On | & report of damage to the Quincy the stock broke badly from 104 to 90, with a later rally to 100. Very little buying power was evident in the coppers dnd the small amount of selling occasioried by the dullness caused a slight decline in prices all around the rvom.

NEW YORK, Feb. 8.—A further improve- ment in cables brought about a higher open- | Ing this morning and the trading was some- what more active during the early session. The improvement was not all maintained, how- ever, but the tone was much better. Com- mission house longs made & rush to secure profits. and there was some bear pressure. .The market sold off about a dozen points from the high point, but showed a tendency to recover whenever pressure was withdrawn. The trad- ing is likely to be rather quiet the rest of the week, as our exchange will be closed Sat- urday and Monday on account of Lincoln’s birthday, and there will be more or less dis- position to even up.

There was quite an active business in ranch Eggs on the exchange yesterday, there being 17 sales, aggregating 163 cases. Much of the business was due to the persistent bids of a dealer who was credited with trying to hold up the market to protect his Eastern good: and sellers met him freely. Prices were 4@lc lower for ranch and 1@1%c lower for store. Among the commission houses stocks were re- ported moderate, as the much lower prices of 1ate have led to ap improved public denmand. as already mention! Receipts, however, are running large.
