the List - The General Market Strong.
 NEW YORK. Feb 4 Stocks opened 1rmer but remained dull except for those which had the advantage of the clique support, but Q stronger tone was soon developed and late in the afternoon the upward movement became pronounced all through the list. Outside of St. Paul and Lead Trust, however, there was not at any time any real activity. The declara- ton of the per cent. dividend on the Lead Trust to-day was great disappointment to many who have been expecting per cent. There was heavy selling by the disappointed ones. The stock rose only small fraction in the early trading but lost all the improvements later in the day, with something in addition. The other industrials were affected to large extent, and the material advances made in the Sugar stocks in the fore noon were afterward entirely lost. The general market was strong, and while there was as usual some realizing in the last hour there was no setback and the close was at the best figures of the day.
 Railroad bonds were more active and stronger, with some marked gains. The sales reached $l,- 725, GOO, of which Kansas and Texas fours con tributed s11s,Ooo and Rio Grande Western fours $12O,OOO.
