Yesterday's New York Stock Exchange opened with an upward rush of prices and closed with something very like a slump, and with the list In a very ragged condition In the matter of net changes;. The professional bear traders, who had watched the market for days to detect the expected turning point towards reaction, fell on the market with vigor and enthusiasm. But the professional bear operators have made many mistakes In the last few weeks, and opinion, is greatly divided as to whether their time has come. Certainly the market yesterday showed no astonishingly large demand for stocks, and in the early dealings the supply was sufficiently limited to cause a volatile upward spurt of prices In a number of securities. The general level of the market was. In fact, lifted so considerably as to ofler very attractive profits even on a day's turn, and a considerable volume of the selling was undoubtedly due to profit taking. Th3 Veallxlng was well absorbed. If regarded from the standpoint of buyers on Monday," but the relapse from the- high prices, at which there a considerable volume of purchases, makes disappointing results for those who got In at the high level. The market must be considered alo In connection with the positive elements of weakness which developed. The violent break on SuKar was a decidedly disturbing Influence, and had more effect than similar breaks have had In the past. The stock was pushed up 11!4 on the report that the advance in package coffee was a forerunner of a settlement of the sugar war. This comforting assurance for holders of Sugar certificates received a rude shock from the announcement which quickly followed of a cut In the price of granulated sugar by the Americnn company, which was followed by the other companies, bringing the prices of all to the same basis. As the American company has been holding its price above that of the other companies, the bringing of prices to the same basis is alleged to be equivalent to a settlement. Hut this Cid not avail to save Sugar from a drop of 74 points to 14), with the close only slightly better. The New York public utilities suffered from the remarks of the new Governor on th subject of taxation of corporations and franchise, and the rubber mocks violently reacted from a buoyant early rise. Coming on top of the general movement to realize, the effect on the general market was decidedly oppressive and stocks were carried down between on and two points. The most Important stocks In the early rise were, however, comparatively firm, and handsome net rslns were conserved for St. Paul. Pennsylvania, Raltlmore & Ohio, Union Pacific, the Erles and lieadir.KS. Theas stocks were the mainstays of the market all day and were absorbed on an enormous scale, showing conclusively the continued activity of powerful speculative forces. As to the recipients of the annual disbursement of dividends and interests, they were not much In evidence. A feature of the day was the strength of sterling exchange, and .this is believed to be In anticipation of higher rates here, notwithstanding that foreign rates relaxed appreciably with the January disbursements. Business In bonds was very large and widely distributed and pr'ces were generally higher. Total sales, par vahje. t3.4ii.oi!.

A BULGE AND A BREAK
WHEAT JU3IPED TO TIIC HIGHEST PRICE OF THE SEASON, But Closed Lower than on SlomlnyCorn Declined and Oats Gained Little Chans In Provisions. CHICAGO. Jan. 2. Wheat scored the highest price of the season to-day on heavy general buyIn? but broke sharply later on profit taking and closed weak. May VjC lower. Corn closed USC lower, oats He higher and provisions practically unchanged. Wheat was Irregular and excited and trade was Imposing in volume. A rough estimate, based on the. reports of two leading commission houses, placed the quantity of wheat to change during the session at 15,000.000 bu. Long stuff was for sale at the tap of the gong. May opened unchanged to c lower, at 77ic to 77c. The depressing factor was to be found in the delivery of 1.500.0QO bu on Jonuary contracts. There were no Liverpool quotations for futures, but the spot article on that market was strong. The initial selling met with a demand more than adequate to take car of it, and within thirty minutes the weakness turned to strength. One comlsslon house was said to have bought 2.500,000 bu durlnar tho first hour, and the head of another one asserted that he had bought twice that quantity. Early sellers reinstated their lines, and there was investment buying on a large scale from quarters hitherto out of the market. The rally was helped along by a decrease in the wond 0 visible of 1.715.0t) bu. by an advance of 6d in flour at Liverpool and by a Minneapolis report of heavy flour sales. May soared during the forenoon to 7!c and at this point the demand lagged. Earlier supjjort waa withdrawn ana those who offered to secure profits found dimculty In finding takers. Under pressure of great magnitude May broke sharply to 77Vfc and closed weak. Vic under Monday, at Tc. Exporters reported six loads taken. Seaboard clearances. In wheat and flour, were equal to 1,000, WO bu. Primary receipts aggregated H. oo bu. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 475 cars, against 45 last week and 2G1 a year ago. Local receipts were 213 cars, thirty-two of contract grade. Corn was comparatively quiet, depressed by favorable weather and receipts. 719 cars, and re sponding with unwillingness to wheat when that market was at its best, ine purchase 01 w.vrj bu of May by Phillips, who worked the November corn squeeie, was the only incident. May seid between 374c and 2GHc and Closed stead-. iiWUc down, at CbT.c. Oats were active and the trade broader than In months. Tho demand, both local and outside, showed considerable improvement. May sold between 24i(fi2-lT8C and closed Ma up, at 'lAc. The fluctuations of wheat were influential In determining prices, but while the market responded readily enough to the bulge in tne Dig market, the answer to the latter' s weakness was lees ready. Receipts were 427 cars. Provisions opened higher on the fact that there were no deliveries on January contracts. There was llttla outside support, however, and selling by rackers caused a reaction. The close was only fairly steady. May pork sold between S12.72H and and closed a shade lower, at $12. 72 Vjjf 12.75; January lard between $6.93 and $5.87Vi. closing a shade down, at $5.92. and January ribs between $G.67vs and $6.60, and closing unchanged at $6.62.

AVool. BOSTON', Jan. 2. The American Wool an 3 Cotton Reporter will say of tho wool trade tomorrow: The wool market the pakt week has been (.-ulet. As this period ti ona of stock-taking, balancing of accounts, etc., very little business was expected. While the demand has been generally quiet and the volume ot sales tmall, there Is a confident feeling In the trade and the belief prevail that a better business is to develop after the titw year gets fairly under way. There haa been 10 disposition to force wcol on the part 'of holders, who are content to wait until the heavy weight season oicns. Advices from abroad Indicate continued firm markns and holders in the West are unwilling to make any concessions in prices. The demand during the past week has run to both fine and medium stock, mostly territories and scoured wools, and the purchasing has teen largely by the medium sized mills, the largest cons-umers not yet being a factor in the market. The sales for the week In Boston amounted to 1,324,000 pounds domestic and 123,000 pounds foreign, making a total cf 1,449,000, against a total of 2.503.700 for the previous weeTc, and a total cf 2,503,600 for the corretpondlng week last year. r 1 j - Metals. NEW YORK, Jan. 2. Speculatively the market for metals was a small one. Sales of small lots were the rule, and thos j only of a nature to supply urgent demands of buyers. Cables furnished no incentive in either direction, showing an unexpected loss of about Is at London for tin, to 121 10s, but was very quiet. The local market for that metal was also nominally lower unaer a lack of support, ruling dull all day, and closed dull at 26.753 26.83c. Copper was Inactive and nominally unchanged both here and abroad, closing with prices at 17c for lake copjier and 16V for casting and electrolytic and 72 17s 6d. respectively. Exports of copper for the month of December aggregated 10.771 tons, making a total for the j-ear of 131.9SS tons, against 112,637 tons in 1890. Lead was dull and unchanged at 4.37V here and unchanged at 16 5s1 in London. Spelter was also unchanged at 4.1214f4.17V. with sellers at those figures. Domestic iron markets show no important features, ruling dull and nominally unchanged. English markets ruled unchanged, being nominally quoted at 60s at Glasgow and 49s 9d at Mlddlesboro. ST. LOUIS.

City of New Orleans Driving All Private Markets Out of Dullness. XEVT ORLEANS. La,. Jan. 2 New ordinances have löone Into effect here prohibiting; private markets within nine squares of public markets, forbidding the peddling and, hawking -ot "any market produce, vegetables, fmlt, .poultry game, fish or oystera within certain hours of the day, and maleInp it unlawful for grocers to offer f r sale market produce. The effect of th first of the?? ordinances will be to practically close all the private markets In the city. The second ordinance, while It will not close any of the local grocery establishments, tj!l considerably curtail their revenue!. The object cf the ordinance Is to force all butchers .and vendors of market produce ljito the public markets, which ycsierday pa-sed under the control of the city, and which are exjx-cted to yield a much heavier revenue to the city under the new law. The market members who had large capital Invested fought the new ordinance in jlhe State and Federal Courts, but were defeated. The public markets previous to J -in. 1 were operated by privat contractors, who paid the city a fixed sum annually. The rapid growth of private markets had. however. o depleted the revenue of the public markets that tho contractors were compiled to throw he-lr franchise. Jntiie P, Priestly Asphyxiated.
