STOCK MARKET OPENING STEADY Fractional Gains After Initial Trade—Atlantic Gulf Features. NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—There was £ general disposition to look for a re- , ceding market on the stoek exchange to- j dav at the beginning of business be- j cause of statements that were nude late i yesterday to the effect that a large part , of the buying on the first day of the; year was to cover shorts by those who ■ had been trading on the bear side for a long period and, as as a matter of policy, waited until after the end of the year before taking profits on their short operations. j The market, however, showed a steady ! tone in spite of these prevailing views, j but after the opening fractional losses were sustained ia. some issues. Interest was attached especially to Atlantic Gulf and West Indies, which, after being supported at 60 yesterday, sola down to 67 in the first few minutes, a new low record for this movement without anv special developments of which the public has knowledge occuring to explain the steady pressure against this stock. . . Cnited States Steel was traded in at 81% to 8m all throngh the first few minntes and Baldwin Locomotive ranged from 86% to 86%, with a rally to 86%, showing a small fractional gain. Crucible moved up a half point and a small gain was made In other steels. Mexican Petroleum opened up Ms poiat at 151, and. after reacting to 150*4, moved up to 151%. St. Panl preferred commanded attention. (By Thomson & McKinnon.! —Jan. 4 The first market session of the year yesterday started in a quiet sort of way, with trade on a moderate scale. Commission houses were buyers of stocks, while this was offset by sympathy from selling, which had the effect of establishing a sufficient number of recessions to give market an Irregular appearance. In the press publications of the country by business men who generally were optimistic in their views, was a tone that ought to have Influence on the stock market, though as a rule these optimistic views weie put In a very conservative nay. - There will, undoubtedly, be some weak points disclosed from time to time. It Is, therefore, necessary to discriminate lu selecting stocks in anticipation of the next rise, the rails should appeal particularly to the public, and In this department Northern Pacific stands out prominently with Interesting possibilities in the future. We entertain a favorable opinion of the market. We feci that ultimately we should have u substantial recovery and, therefore, every reaction should be met with buying orders.

| In the Cotton Markets NEW YORK, Jan. 4. —The cotton market was Irregular at the opening today. July showed a loss of 3 points, arid other months an advance of 3 to 16 points. Later the whole list turned weak and dropped 10 points under last night's close, under heavy local and southern selling based on unsettled financial reports from the South. Firmness at Liverpool was attributed to covering, although private cables said that the demand was no better. At the end of the first fifteen minutes the market was active and unsettled at a net decline of 5 to 14 points. It was reported that eight, notices were issued this morning.

SLUMP FEATURES GRAIN MARKET March Wheat Drops 2 Cents— Corn and Oats Lower. CHICAGO, Jan. 4.—Considerable •piling marked trading on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Opening easy, the market later sagged and then dropped as low as 2e for March wheat, when it became evident there was long wheat for sale. A report that Egypt hns permission of the Australian government to cancel orders for several million bushels of wheat Influenced declines. Provisions were slightly lower in sympathy with the declines in grains. March wheat opened at $1.77. up %c, and later declined 2c. May wheat wan off lc at the opening at $1.70% and subsequently lost l%e. May corn opened off %<• at 76%c, and was down %c before the close. July corn opened miI changed at 77%e and later lost l%c. i May oats advanced %c at the opening at 50%e and later dropped %c. July opened at 48%e, down %c, and remained unchanged.

(By Thomson A McKinnon) —.lnn. 4 Wheat The keynote to the wheat market yesterday was reports of better milling demand, exporters asking for bids via the gulf for wheat for January and February shipment, and the statem Yt attributed to local elevator interests that they did not care to sell any more v heat for export for fear of difficulty in handling the March futures in the way of hedges. This made a sharp demand from shorts as well as some new long buying. The Southwest reported a number of instances of better demands for flour today. Kansas city reported active competition for their large receipts, and all carload lots were cleaned up early, according to the reports. Corn—Sympathized with the strength In wheat, but it was tempered somewhat by liberal receipts and rather large offerings of corn ly the country. Corn visible showed on Increase of over 1,000.000 bushels and the probabilities are. that It will keen on lnereasiug until next May. Cash prices of corn were very draggy and or.lv advanced sympathetically with the futures. Torn was lc higher. The large Eastern shorts, after making wheat purchases, turned their attention to the <orn, and by heavy covering, advanced prices sharply. While admitting all that can be said for the constructive sU'e of corn, we still believe that it must have strong wheat In order to hold Its advances Oats Cash oats were %<• higher. This Is Indicative of tills market, which only took Its tone from the strength of the other markets under the light trade. We do not expect to show any iudivdluui strength. On the contrary, should corn show any weakness, oats would readily follow. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.
