NEW YORK. Jan. 6. -
To-days market gathered strength through
the entire two hours session, and closed at
sharp advances, with the shorts covering pre-
cipltately. There was news to affect the sharp
turn from yesterdays rregulartty, unless it
was a refutation of the receivership rumors on
Missouri Pacific, and the falsity of rumors
circulated after the close yesterday to the eff
feet that another receivership was impending.
The bank statement reflected another enormous
gain in cash. but it has ceased to be factor in
the situation owing to the plethora of funds
here and the relaxation of money rates abroad.
Speculative sentiment, however, has undergone
a decided change as we noted early in the week.
and the bulish temper will be likely to increase
in the absence of fresh unfavorable develop
ments. The unfortunate decline in the gold re-
serve of the national treasury might have dig
turblng effect if it did not increase the proba-
bility of an early issue of government bonds to
revive the national finances. A restoration of
the treasury position to soundness would I'M
doubleday exert a beneficial influence upon
European opinion. There is a growing dispo-
Sition to regard the Wilson bill as likely to meet
either with defeat or a more prompt passage,
thereby ending existing uncertainty and fur
nishing opportunity for the revival of industry
upon some assured basis Railroad men are in.
clined to promise less unfavorable statements
of earnings than were shown for the last month.
and if their predictions are verified the effect
cannot fail to be gratifying We recognize that
the situation is still unsettled and that profes
sional operators have been largely responsible
for the weeks rally in prices. We should not
advise any excessive enthusiasm, especially af-
ter the material advances made in many stocks,
but for the time being the bull party is showing
more courage. There is more pressure of long
stock, and until new adverse conditions appear
we think purchases may be made safely on re-
actions.

SuperstitiOns Women.

Ladies who are afraid to behold the
new moon over the left shoulder are
very numerous in St. Louis, says a
local paper. An instance is given of
one lady who looked at the new moon
over her left shoulder before she
thought of what she was doing, and
two days later her husband lost his
position and was out of work for six
months, which, of course, was directly
due to her carelessness. Another St.
Louis lady when she sees the new
moon, always shakes her purse at it,
thus securing good luck in monetary
affairs as long as the moon lasts. 9th
ers will not read epitaphs for fear of
losing their memory; none of them
like to hear dogs howl, and one. at
least, is able to counteract the malign
influence of the uncanny sound by
taking off her shoe and splitting in it.
Ladies who carry slips of paper and
bits of parchment which have had GER
tain characters written upon them by
gypsy women are numerous, these
charms being effective to preserve the
wearer from harm when the parchment
slips are placed in the bosom or in the
pocketbook while repeating formula
Of gypsy jargon, though, if this be
forgotten, the Lords Prayer will an
