AGAIN MOVING UPWARD

l'niCES OF" SHARKS Ttllf FltO.M THE DOWNWARD C'Ol'HSC. Some Hesitancy and Considerable Dullness Still Discernible, but the Tone Is JlucU Detter. NEW YORK, Jan. 15. The stock market turned from its recent consistent downward cour.e to-day and enjoyed something of a rally. The demand was on a fairly large scale, but the market showed a tendency to fall into intense dullness, and developed a hesitating tone on the advance. There were a number of reactions during the day, but the closing- was near the top level, with dullness and wavering still very manifest. The demand from the short interest was a palpable influence in the rise. Evidences of support were seen early in the day in some of the stocks which were chief targets for bear attack, notably In Union Pacific and other transcontinental. This served to intimidate the bears, although they renewed their selling on advances. The fact was manifest, however, that the more urgent selling had been disposed of cn previous days, and the efforts of the bears induced little liquidation. A number of incidents aided the bulls In turning the market against their opponents. There was a striking demonstration in Sugar, on the strength of the hearing accorded by the ways and means committee at Wash ington to the advoctes of a reduction of duties on Cuban sugar. The Increase in the dividend rate from 2 to 3 per cent, on the New York, Chicago & St. Louis .second preferred relieved tome apprehension that there would be no increase.' although the distribution was not as large as some speculators have claimed to expect. New lork Central developed straneth early In the cay, and had risen to the highest point beforo the announcement of the new. stock issue and the subscription rights to stock holders. The price was inclined to sag after the announcement, as new bond and capi tal issues have been in disfavor with speculators recently. The price of the stock has Indicated for some time past that rights of some sort were accruing, as the directors' statement now Indicates was the fact. The statement of the country's foreign trade for December was regarded as favorable. The heavy declines in exports of breadstuff s, principally of corn, probably was expected. The decline in this item accounts for practically the whole of th-i decrease in the total exports of the month The increase in the imports for. the month has resulted In a falling, off of the trade balance in our favor altogther of over ?20,0(0,000, compared with the previous De cember, but the increase in- imports is not regarded as an unfavorable factor at pres ent, as it is made up in part of crude articles for use in manufactures and of products for which domestic manufacturers are not able to fill the orders they receive. The large gain by the banks from the subtreasury and the return flow of currency from the Interior will all give assurances of a favorable bank statment on Saturday, and the heaviness of sterling exchange In dicates that no gold will go out this week. There was also a subsidence to-day of recent vague rumors of financial -troubles In the commercial world. The sharp drop in People's Gas was due to the refusal of a court to grant an injunction against the Chicago city ordinance reducing- the rate for gas to 75 cents per 1,000. Its Influence on the general market was onlv slight. The active bonds generally moved In sympathy with stocks. Total sales at par value were 3,223,YO.

Covering of Shorts Responsible for the Itlne In Prices. Meyer & Riser's Telegram. NEW YORK, Jan. 15. The indications that the market was somewhat oversold yesterday proved to be reliable. There was considerable, covering of shorts all day, and there was a marked falling off in the pressure to sell. This was attributed to the fact that the group of speculators, who came from Chicago were credit ed with having sold a large line of stocks yesterday. The principal feature In the market was the excellent buying of New York Central. A house closely identlned with Vanderbllt interests bought at least 5.UUO shares and at the close uppeared to want still more. Presumably the buying was In connection with the decision of the directors to Increase capital by $35,0u0,0o0. The reason given for the Increase was somewhat indeflnite, It being stated In the announcement that it was for corporate purposes of the company. The street was inclined to believe that the much-talked-of consolidation of the Junior Vanderbllt system, was about to take place and that the increase la the capital would be made In connection with the consolidation. The bullish feeling on the Vanderbllt properties wa3 further stimulated by the announce ment of a dividend of 3 per cent, on Nickel plate second preferred, an Increase of 1 per cent, over the last dividend paid. Ihe weakest stock In the list was People's Gas, which was heavily sold by Chicago houses on the announcement that Judge Grosscup had decided that the city had the right to lix the selling price of gas. The decision is looked upon as a serious one for the company, and considering that, in addition, the Company s taxes will be largely in creased under the recent franchise de cision, serious doubts are entertained as to the ability of the company to maintain its present rate of dividents. During the afternoon the market became extremely dull, but maintained its nrm undertone. Weak Opening Soon Overcome, Oranger Farwtll A Co.'s Telegram. NEW YORK, Jan. 15. The market opened decidedly weak and there was quite a little liquidation. Traders were sellers all around the room. These turned, however, rapidly and for the first two hours the market was very uncertain, showing alternately strong and weakness. Toward noon supporting orders appeared and there was a decided improvement, shorts covering rapidly. The news of additional capital stock to be offered by New York Central at first had a depressing effect, but this was short lived. The market closed at near best prices of the day.

STILL NG OFF CORN CLOSES WITH A LOSS AGGRCGATING 1 3-S CKXTS. Wheat Declines .1-4 to 7-So and Oatu Are Down 3-4c I'rovialons "Weaken on the Slump In Grains. CHICAGO, Jan. 15. Bears In the grain its were In high spirits to-day and unicrcifully pounded away at prices until, after a firm epenintr, May -wheat closed QTsC lower, corn lc depressed and oats c down. Provisions closed 7H10c lower. Wheat trade early was quiet, with a strong undertone. After yesterday's de moralization a firm opening on cables and ry weather was reassuring to the bull professionals. Liverpool started somewhat better and this, In face of the decline here, ent confidence in the pit. The effect of the leavy Phillips liquidation yesterday had evaporated, and the market was on Its old footing again. Perhaps the most noticeable result of yesterday's tumult was the bsence of the usual volume of outside business. Shortly after the opening of May, slUic to US?äc higher at SlUSSlHc. there was an effort made at supporting the market, and at one time, on a revival of, commission house buying, a recovery seemed imminent. As It was, May rose to Slc Bears, however, had the bulls virtually by he horns and pressed steadily on prices. Heavy selling set in on all sides. News came that Liverpool was declining. Some horts took advantage of the situation to cover for profits, but the amount of wheat thus absorbed was trifling; weak holders everywhere were forced out by the heavy calls for margins by houses that feared other failures might result from yester day's hard pressure. To abet the bearish argument the coarso grains were being pounded at, cash corn was. especially weak. May wheat, during the last hour slid off rapidly to JsOc and at the. close of the session was weak, i57c lower, at SOUc. Local receipts were 45 cars, 2 of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported S94. a total of 439, against 404 last week and 3S5 a year ago. Primary receipts were 49$. OOO bu. compared with 620,000 last year. Seaboard clearances, in wheat nnd flour equaled 162,000 bu. The seaboard reported 13 cars iaKen ior export. Corn started firm and highr with wheat and on fairly good cables some of ' the corn sold yesterday was replaced and there was some small country buying. Receipts were very light, but country offerings were reported freer. When wheat advanced corn followed, but soon turned heavy on its own poor cash situation, and later broke badly in wheat company. Cash houses reported 5c decline for ear corn in as many days. Good weather curtailed the amount needed for stock feeding and the absence of demand worked against the pit. Liquidation on all sides set in about the noon hour, and prices slumped in a panicky fashion. May, which had opened steady at 654 (SVsC and sold up to 5rc, dropped almost 2 cents to 63ic At this figure shorts took profits enough to steady the market at the close. The session ended with May weak, l.c down at 637c. Receipts were 83 cars. Early in the day oats ruled rather firm and independent of the pits. Prices opened higher in spite of more liberal offerings, selling: as high as 45?sC Finally, under the corn influence, oats began to tumble. Large quantities of long stuff was thrown out. The provision people, who were already short large quantities, began selling more. A leading professional unloaded slderable, but there was a firm stand by the bulls to support the market, and this tended to steady the tone. May sold off to 4434c and closed weak, sic down at 44T8c. Receipts were 120 cars. Provisions were fairly active. They started out with good evidence of a bull market on a country demand and a strong hog market at the yards. When corn collapsed, the early bought stuff was thrown overboard and the prices slid off. May pork closed 10c down at $17.07i; lard. 7V-C lower at $3.79, and ribs 7c lower at $$.&& 8.6214.

As a result of the slttlnjr of the grand jury at Lisbon, O., yesterday, D. S. Rrookman, manager of the Wellsvllle plant of the American Sheet Steel Compmy, was indicted on the charge of discharging Leonard Shaffer, an employe at the local mills. Shaffer was one of the men who went on strike last summer in order to Join the Amalgamated Association. When the strike was settled he was taken back In the mill and was given a Job of rolling. A few weeks ago. It is alleged that Manager Brookman called him into the office and asked him for his "union card." Shaffer refused to give it up, and In a few days thereafter he was discharged. The Amalgamated Association took up Shaffer's case, with the above result. The case is one of unusual interest and will be .bitterly contested. Judge P. M. Smith, of this city, has been employed to defend Brookman. Dryun's View of Sliavr. The Commoner. Mr. Shaw Is a, money lender, and It is too often assumed that a man who handles money must necessarily understand the principles that govern the money question. But it is a false assumption. A man may know whose name Is good on a note, he may know hqw to keep books, and may even understand how large a reserve should be kept on hand, and yet be Ignorant of the science of money. It Is often the case that the small financier leans on the largest one he knows, who in turn leans on some larger one. and so on ad infinitum Knowledge of the money question comes from an understanding of the principles in volved, not from the possession of wealth or from the counting of dollars. Should Show Their Knowledge. St. Paul Pioneer Pres.s. The moral horrors of Manila since the American occupation used to hold so im portant a place in the anti-imperialist Indictment of the administration that it would remind us all of old times if some of thos dar old ladles would expose the Methodist minister who. after thoroughly Inspecting Manila, declares that it is one of the most moral spots on the globe, and far better governed than any American city that he knows about, ine ease with which one who has never been to Manila can prove that he knows more about It than one who has been there ought to induce the aunties to show their dexterity la their special Uno.

The receipts of cattle for three days show a decrease of fully SuG compared with the Bame time last vetk, and the receipts to-day were about 150 smaller than a week ago. The market opened with some activity in the bidding, and the first few salea Indicated fully steady prices compared with yesterday. Buyers apparently soon bepan to realize, however, that the supply was large enough to meet all the requirements, and after the first few sales had been made the bidding was lower. . After a basis for operations had been established, which was generally at about 10c decline compared with yesterday, the trading- was reasonably active, and with all buyers In the market a good clearance of fat cattle was made in good season. Salesmen had to contend with an unusually large number of thin cattle, for which there was very little demand,' and at a late hour some of that class had not been sold. .

Combined receipts of hogs for three days exhibit a decrease of about 5,000 compared with the same time last week, and the re ceipts to-day were about 1,000 smaller than a week ago. The market opened with a very good inquiry from outside source, and salesmen naturally were holding their consignments at a good advance In prices! Packers evidently considered the demand unreasonable and withdrew from the market early. Shippers, however, were well supplied with orders and from the start were rather liberal buyers. When packers discovered that the supply was gradually slipping away they were forced into the market, and, although rrotetsting, were rather free buyers. Consequently the market on the late turn was considerably animated and the close was strong. All dealers reported an advance of WilOc in prices over yesterday, and it was generally conceded that the advance was a big 5c for an average. Sales ranged from $5.75 to I6.G5. and the bulk of the supply sold at $66.50.

The marketing of sheep and lambs continues of fair volume, the receipts thus far this week being about equal to the same time last week and 700 larger than the corresponding time a year ago. With all buyers In the field and a good demand the market opened with active competition.Almost from the start the offerings were changing hands promptly and sales indicate about 10c gain in prices over yesterday, especially for lambs. With both shippers and local butchers buying It did not take long to exhaust the supply and the market closed steady at opening prices.

About S50 head arrived for the regualr sale of the Blair-Baker Horse Co,. against the same time last week and 475 the corresponding time a year ago, when the receipts were unusually large. The arrivals consisted of all kinds, with probably a larger proportion of good horses than recently, but most of the supply were fair to good chunks and drivers. Ths attendance of buyers was unusually large, there being representatives from almost every puarter. but principally from Eastern and New England States The market opened with rather active competition, and transactions in the forenoon were generally at satisfactory, but no higher than those currant in the corresponding sale last.wek. About 25u horsts changed hands in the morning. In the afternoon It was evident that most of the Important orders had been computed, consequently there was Ie?s urgent competition between buyers, and at times the trading was very slugih. Salesmen were not Inclined to make any concessions, compared with morning prices, and Anally succeeded in getting those ilgures for moft of the offering, but in ome cn?es there was a difference of $5.
