STOCK MARKET OPENS FIRM Price Changes Were Narrow— Small Gains Feature. NEW YORK.

That stock ranged from 78% to 78% and the Rights sold at 18%, making a gain of % of a point Pacific Oil was unchanged at 84. Atlantic Gulf opened down % of a point at 62%c. Steel common made a gain of % of a point to 81$*, but fell back on the next sale. Baldwin Locomotive lost *4 of a point to 86%. followed by a trifling rally.

Royal Dutch was in demand, adyanIng % of a point to 57*4. and Mexican , Petroleum moved up 1 point to 155. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Feb. S The stock market yesterday was Tery ■ argely professional. Commission bouses were only moderately active; the professional element taking advantage of the absence of public support have sold stocks and have made some Impression on values and this is Just the character of market that .we have mentioned in these letters during the last few days; that we are most likely to experience for a few weeks. We need an incentive to arouse public interest and we have no such incentive at this time, but there are pending many matters of great importance any One of which if properly solved, might serve the purpose of arousing public Interest. We have the condition in Europe which might be helped by a definite settlement of the reparation question; we have a railroad problem here which might be at least temporarily solved bj the wage board, which is now engaged in consideration of the subject and we have the problem of export business that might be helped by the organization of the new foreign trade corporation. Then, too. we have the problem of domestic business which can only be helped by the restaration of confidence among the people of this country. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE. NEW YORK, Feb.

Bearish movements were everywhere on foot and the early prices were 25 to 50 cents lower and there were rumors that prices would be lower before the close of the forenoon hours. Kingan A Cos., usually the largest buyers In the local market, were taking practically no hogs and left the impression that they would not buy unless the prices came to lower figures. Shippers were not anxious to take the initiative. Other hog markets of the country were strong to higher and there was no apparent reason for the lower prices, other than the actions of local concerns. There were a few early sales at $10.25 on one or two droves on extra fancy light hogs, but the few sales that followed were generally around $lO, with one or two sales at $lO.lO. Pigs were lower, following the trend of the general market. Receipts for the day approximated 6,000 fresh hogs with an influential number over from the Monday market. With receipts close to 800 fresh cattle and a fair demand by buyers, there was a fairly good tone to the trade on the cattle market and prices held about steady. Prices were strong to 50 cents higher | on the good and choice calves at the opening of the market, but there was a slow demand for medium and common stuff and the prices on those grades were weak. There was a top .of sl4 on a few fancy calves. The bulk of the choice calves brought [email protected].

GRAIN FUTURES PRICES ADVANCE Corn and Oats Move Up in Sympathy With Wheat. CHICAGO. Feb. B.—Short coverings with light offerings and reports of green bug disease in Texas wheat caused advances in grain futures on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Corn and oats increased in sympathy with wheat. Provisions were lower. March wheat opened down lc at $1.53% ad gained 5%c later; July wheat opened at $1.44%, down %c, advancing 5%c before the close. May corn opened at 05%c, down %c, and gained l%c subsequently. July corn down %c, opened at 07%c, and advanced l%c later. May oats opened unchanged at 42%c and advanced l%e later. July oats opened down %c at 42%c, gaining B%c subsequently. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) —Feb. 8 — Wheat—ls reliance can be placed upon cable advances then the competition of the southern hemisphere is something which can not be overcome at once. It is stated that wheat from India has been laid down In Italy at $1.67, which compares with something' like $2 for United States wheat. This condition was prominent in yesterday’s market. Values have also been affected by a very poor demand from any source except that northwestern houses were buyers In the early market. The Inquiry for a round lot from Greece has not been satisfied. Outside of this inquiry there has been no evidence of a foreign demand, in fact two western markets referred to an absence of demand. There are advices frotri Illinois that farmers give indication of being ready to part with their reserves. It Is also noted that the demand in that territory is very poor. Inasmuch as th) question of reserves remaining in this country is still debatable, the market is In need of further eaport demand if prices are to advance. Corn—The large Increase In visible supply of corn Is to be accounted for by the unloading of accumulations on track In this and other markets, The country has practically stopped selling, although some believe that If country roads freeze there will be a fair volume of new movement. Seaboard reported 150,000 thousand for export, but the distributing demand is practically non-existent. In

fact, some corn millers are closing because of lack of outlet for their products. It would be for the general betterment of the country if a better price could be paid to the producer, but at the moment there is no evidence of demand, either from Industries, exporters or distributors, to lighten the load of the visible accumulations. Oats-—The action of corn Is still the prime Influence In the oat market. The hedging load from the visible la not as extreme as In corn, none the less, It is load. Values may drag under this Influence, but we doubt if there Is much merit In the anticipation of any important decline. A better demand from the South Is hoped for. Provisions—Heavy receipts of hogs and lower prices brought moderate liquidation in products. Prices suffered from lack of buying. It will be necessary to uncover a better f foreign demand for products if the market !■ to be strengthened. CHICAGO GRAIN. —Feb. 8— WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.
