THE MARKETS.
The Operators Taking Breathing Spell and
Looking Around.
Tho LuII Not Especially Encouraging
TO the Bears.



NEW YORK, Feb. .5.-Tho market opened
and was reactionary until noon. Fluctua-
lions averaged Z to 1t per cent. under free
realizing and heavy sales by traders. About
noon the bulls bought, and tho market raj
lied sharply. Vanderbilts were quiet and
steady, Gould stocks dull and strong, grangers
quiet, and coal stocks very strong. Trading
was much less in volume than yesterday.
Principally in Oregon Transcontinental
Union Pacific, Reading Delaware and Lacka-
wanna, and Northern Pacific preferred
Loaning rates were easier. Bonds were
moderately active and higher In the last
hour the market was dull and strong.
Lending commission houses anticipate no
reaction Of moment, and say the movemet
denotes bull market and no mistake. If
quotations drop off little they say the
market is purchase, and the Gould people
say they believe prices will be TO per
cont. higher all around by Saturday night,
but obscrvsnt brokers say that the Gould
party sold many long stocks, particularly
Western Union and Texas Pacific, yesterday.
