NEW lOhh STUN MhRhhAs
NEW YORK. January S0.-Operators at
the Exchange were waiting to hear from
washington. At the opening there was
some pressure TO sell, but considering the
developments overnight, the lquldations
were on very moderate scale. In the
first place. there was the failure Of the
Senate Finance Committee TO agree; the
repeal OF the differental duty on sugar
by the House: the appointment OF receiv-
ers for the Dlstilllng and Cattle-Feeding
Company, and the certainty that there
would be further heavy Withdrawals OF
gold from the Sub-Treasury. These adj
verse factors, however had but little In
fuence on the market. and the sales OF
a considerable line OF st. Paul and Louis
vile and Nashville for foreign account
also fell fiat
The comparative strength In the race OF
the unfavorable developments noted was
due TO a general belief that negotiations
had been completed between the Treasury
Department and a syndicate of foreign
capitalists and national banks Tor the
sale Of 800 OOO,0g0 OF 4 per cent. bonus;
OF this sum S'5,0o0OO are TO be placed
