The movement of stock prices was irregular yesterday on New York 'Change, but a tirm undertone ruled on the lack of disquieting Cuban reports from Washington and a cessation of the bank failures In the Northwest. Foreign dealers were disposed to sell leading stocks freely, but their offerings estimated at 13, OuO shares, were well taken and prices advanced on covering and a moderate commission-house Inquiry. Transactions in the specialties were on a large scale and the fluctuations recorded in that class -were, in most instances. Important. The steady increase in the inquiry for prime investment securities, which is retlecttd In tho larger volume of transactions in bonds and material advances In the gilt-edged issues, constitutes an element of strength In the general market position. Tho investment inquiry extends to Kuropv. In the industrials manipulation for a i be was again apparent, but the movement in the railroad stocks was cjuleter. Tho coal shares ruled feverish and lower under the influence of the Delaware & Hudson dividend episode, but the low-priced shares were in fair demand. The difference in favor of the American ;plrits In regard to standing contracts, invvolvlng 1..0.000. influenced activity and strength in the shares, the preferred rising per cent., to HT-'i . The absorption of the Corbln interest in lng Island by the Pratt eMate and the formation of a syndicate to improve tho financial and physical condition of the property caused an advance of 1 per cent, in the stock, to .". Manhattan was raided around midday and yielded l',i per cent, on the reiort. tiled at Albany. howing a decided increase in the statistics of passengers carried by surface roads in the State. Th? general market also sagged slightly, but the reaction was. soon checked by manipulation In Sugar, which carried the price of the stock up ii per cent., to J1.I2V2 on large transactions. The conflict "with tho Arbuckle interest has encouraged a creation of a large short interest which is on the alert, however, ready to run on Indication of inside support. Delaware & Hudson, which had previously fallen l'i. rallied, a substantial fraction and the grangers also displayed some improvement. National Starch tirst preferred, which bas b"cn neglected for a long time. Jumped L per cent., to with a subsequent recession to The afternoon speculation was largely centered in Sugar, which tigurer for 4I.50O shares out of an aggregate for the day of 1.V1.0CO shares. Profit-taking in tho late trading forced general concessions. The closing was heavy at slight net losses in the railways. The bond market ruled fairly active and values -made further substantial gains in most instances. The dealings in the usually inactive issue are increasing and at improving prices generally. De Dardelaben Coal sixes were conspicuous for a decline to 81U. a compared with P2. the l ust preceding sale in Decfrmler. 1N95. The sales were $1.42.000. The principal gains were: Burlington sinkir.g fund fives, 4 per cent.; Baltimore & Ohio firsts.

IllSIMiSS WILL DP, ALL TIIH IlKTTmi FOR Tlll-2 FAILl'ltKS OF 1SSML llankN Have Suffered from Specnlation nnd Unci MiiniiKement Dun JL I'o.'s unci llrudntreetit Iteportn. NEW YOUK, Jan. 8. U. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade will to-morrow say: The year 1S07 begins with one clear advantage; the past year has swept out of the way a great number of unsound concerns which in any time of activity would have been dangerous to business. Of the 13,2Si commercial and banking failures in 1S0, with liabilities of $276,815,7 ID, a large share represented crippling los.ses in previous years, or the violence of speculative stormy in 1S&3, or the first half of lSlnJ. while thousands more resulted from the fury of the political tornado last fall. Banking failures amounting to $30,718,913 during the year averaged $2,13G each and were 115 per cent, larger than in 1S:5. Commercial failures amounted to $226, CM, S3 4, a little over $1,000,000 having been added by the last day of tho year, but tho average of liabilities, $14,002, was smaller than in some years of great prosperity. The failures of brokerage and other commercial concerns averaged $58,41$ each, increasing 1S3 per cent, over 1S03, while manufacturing failures averaged $2$,8ij$ each, and increased 31 per cent., and trading failures increased 18 per cent, and averaged only $9,G0ti each. Over four-fifths of the increase in manufacturing and trading failures were in lumber manufacturing with 170 per cent, increase; dry goods, 50 per cent, increase; woolen manufacturing, 161; clothing trade, 20; shoe trade. S7; grocery trade, 33; machinery, 70; milling, 117; furniture, 10; printing, i?7 per cent. In ten other branches the increase was moderate In amount and in five, with the unclassified manufacturing and trading failures, the liabilities were smaller than in While banking failures have not ceased at the West, apprehension about them has almost wholly subsided, and no serious influence on general trade is now expected. Many sound concerns were doubtless caught by the epidemic, but practically all the important failures are traced to disregard of law and of banking sense at periods somewhat distant. Jt is felt at the West that all business will be sounder after its purging. The return of money to New York has exceeded shipments to tl? i interior by $2,000.0rt) for the wt-ek. Wheat rose to i2e on Monday, but has declined again at S3. 23c. with Western receipts a million bushels smaller than last year, and Atlantic exports, tlour included, were 2.tf7.i0i) bu, against 2.X57.W6 bu lat year. The trade accounts indicate a great quantity In farmers hands, enough to permit more than 100, 000,000 bu to be exported in the remaining six months. Cotton started up a shade, but receipts from plantations are still too large for low estimates, and the condition of the cotton mills foreshadows curtailment rather than large consumption. The market for goods is extremely slow, as many Infer that the unprecedented stocks of print cloths indicate a similar surplus of other goods. The logic is bad. but In many branches the mills have doubtless manufactured goods anticipating a demand which has not come. It is now proposed to relieve the market by selling quantities of print cloths abroad, or by locking up 2.000.tia pieces until the market improves. The only change in quotations is Me reduction in some bleached goods. Prices of wool are a shade lower. In woolen goods the only change is a reduction of t'sc in clay worsted and mixtures and orders are not more frequent. Orders for boots and shoes have almost ceased, except for a few qualities which have been advanced to 5 per cent, in price, but jobbers are buying a little more as stocks run low. Leather is stiff, and hides a shade stronger. Knormous purchases of billets came with a rush, most of the large concerns contracting for all they required lor months and even a year to corne. and some of the largest contracts are said to have been about $13 or even less, but there is as yet no better demand for structural work, bars are weak, nails have declined to $1.40 for wire and $1.30 for cut. and little Is doing in rails, as possible buyers think $23 is too high with billets at $15 per ton. Nevertheless a great trade is expected when relative prices become settled. The aggregate of gross earnings of all railroads In the United States reporting for December or a part of the month, is p;.4:r7.0S5. a decrease of 2.4 per cent., compared with last year and of S.9 per cent, compared with the corresponding time in 1SH2. The later reports make a more favorable showing than any of the earlier returns for the month. For the fourth week reads reporting show a considerable increase in gross earnings. The increase is not confined to any one section, but nearly all the large systems report a large gain in the fourth week. Compared with 1S02. roads reporting for the month show reduced earnings, the greatest loss being on grangers and other Western roads. As a whole the return so far made for December compares much more favoraLly witii preceding years than the first complete report for November. Ilrndatreet' Review. NEW YORK, Jan. 8. Bradstreet's tomorrow will say: With the exception of reports from a dozen South Atlantic coast and gulf cities, jobbers at nearly all distributing centers say business is dull and without new features. Demand has improved at Chicago and St. Ix)uis for hats, hardware, shoes and dry goods, but trade in thoe lines is fair only. Colder weather has stimulated purchases of clothing at some points. Little general recovery from holiday dullness is reported as yet. At most centers salesmen are just starting out. Collections are reported unsatisfactory, and in many instances merchants express themselves as hopeful of good spring business. The price movement has had very little signilicancc, advances having been in hides, which have become relatively scarce, turpentine, coffee, wheat, oats and tin. Firm and practically unchanged quotations have been recorded in wheat, tlour. pork, sugar, cotton, print cloths, petroleum, ami reactions are reported in quotations for Southern pig iron, lard and corn. There is no change in the wool market, manufacturers declining to buy until they receive orders for goods. More strength has been shown by boots and shoes since the. tirst of the week. Iron and steel have been disappointing, as consumers evidently anticipate a further reduction in prices and refuse to place orders. The week has been marked by exceptionally heavy orders of Southern pig iron lor export. Cotton goods remain as depressed and the market as unsatisfae. tory as heretofore, with lower prices expected. Exports of wheat, flour included as wheat, from both coasts of the United States this week amount to .".ll.oSS bushels, as compared with 2.707.O0O bushels last week. 3.471.oo;) bushels In the lirst week of January. iyt. 2.3V7.0') bushels in the corresponding week of 1SI4. and as contrasted with 3.:Uj000 bushels in the like period of 1S03.

THE BOTTOM DROPPED

riKTHiiit vi:aivm:ss ix Chicago WHEAT CAI MIS A LOf OF UC. Other Grain Dec I In eel In Sympathy with the Lending Cereal Provisloutt Improved n Trifle. CHICAGO. Jan. S.-A break of 2c a bushel in the price of wheat in the first half hour of to-day's session so effectually squeezed the bull feeling out of the local crowd that no amount of encouraging news could effect a rc-cntrame of a grain of it. Although there was a subsequent rally of a half cent, the market still exhibited signs of weakness at the close. Corn and oats were weak, considering "their previous low prices, and closed c and U'Uc lower respectively. Provisions went in the opjositc direction, closing 3ft; 20c higher. Opening Liverpool cables on wheat were a greatVlisappointmcnt. Instead of showing a sympathetic advance with the lc rise here yesterday, prices even showed a slight decline. The market here for no other perceptible reason started virtually lc lower than it closed yesterday, although a few trades were made in the cotjfusion of the opening at declines of c and ic The range for May was officially given at 82c for highest and 8I74C lowest, but comparatively little changed hands at above Slc. In little more than a half hour the price had dropped to SO'.c, or 2c under yesterday's close. The extreme weakness here puzzled a good many. There was enough wheat bought yesterday 011 the expectation of a firmer Liverpool to-day, making a market tor the selling or it at a profit, to l a large element in the reasons for the weakness that developed when the Liverpool market so coldly turned its back on the bullish enthusiasts of Chicago. Nothing in the other news of the day threw any further light on the reasons for such radical weakness. Closing Liverpool cables were lower of course, because of the early action of this market, and showed declines of Vzd to :i4d. The Berlin and Paris markets were both higher; Antwerp unchanged. Chicago receipts of wheat were only twenty-two cars. Minneapolis and Duluth got only 178 against 032 a year ago. Atlantic port clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 34S.00O bushels, it was reported he re that 250 carloads of wheat were being forwarded from here by rail to Boston by Bartlett-Krasier, but this firm denied it. It was asserted, however, that whoever may le the shippers the business was unduobtedly being done, and not only so, but that in addition another 130,000 lot was worked in the same way to-day. New York reported twenty boatloads sold for shipment to tho continent. These items were very influential in turning the market. It was accompanied by a- decided drop In the volume of trade, but once on the upward path prices held comparatively steady. May finally reacted to 814c and cloyed at bO-tSlc. Corn seerned to be entirely without friends, and as business Was rather more active than usual the market suffered a severe break. Sympathy with wheat contributed to tho weakness. A great deal of liquidation was also done on persistent reports of impending Western rate cutting. May opened a shade lower at 25425l4C, declined to 2 Use and closed weak at 2ic. In oats quite a heavy business was transacted, though at a lower range of prices. Notwithstanding the urgent and free buying an easy feeling was apparent and prices declined, partly through sympathy with wheat. May opened a shade lower at ll?ft' i:sc, sold to li'flSTsC closed at lSWc. There was a much broader trade in provisions with outsiders taking more Interest and packers apparently unwilling to part with their lines until prices had a substantial advance. Prices were firm, even when wheat was weakest and closed at about the top figures. At the close May pork was loc hipher at $7.95; May lard 5c higher at $4.05; May ribs about 7&c higher at $1.071s'4.lO.
