Review, Received Daily by Pullen, Crock
er & Co.
NEW YORK, Feb. g.
The market maintained firm front to-day
with Sugar taking the lead as regards both ac-
tivity and strength. The improvement took
place on the lines OF argument used yesterday.
III industrIals, like Sugar Refining for instance,
several monies will probably elapse before the
present conditions governing the making of
profits are changed, While as regards general
manufacturing interests a basis is now afforded
for readjustment necessary to meet the new
tariff schedules. Further favorable reports OF
expansion are made by the mercantile agencies
this week, ana perhaps the low prices OF COM
modities may account for part of the heavy de-
crease still shown in bank clearances as COM
pared with year ago. 1t is apparent, however,
that trade and industry are on the mend and as
the recovery makes progress it will establish
stronger grounds for hope in an ultimate reVl-
val of business in all directions. The enormous
mass of surplus money i'll the banks assures the
continuance of easy rates for loanable funds
and when confidence is once reeStabHshed the
investment of this idle capital will be potent
influence on values. The situation is hardly
likely to improve rapidly as long as the leslsla-
tive outlook at Washington remains unsettled,
and because of that the time is not ripe for ex-
cessive enthusiasm There are no indications
of decided change in the character of specula-
ton and lrreguiarity may be expected for the
present. There is strong under tone to the
market, hpwever, which only needs encouraging
developments to become aggressive, and barring
unforeseen accidents we should advise purchases
on the reactions.
