New York.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-The volume of
business on the stock exchange today
was even lighter than on yesterday, and
the market was narrower than for some
time past. The heavy engagements of
gold for shipment had depressing eff
feet on the speculation and restricted
transactions. which aggregated less than
95 900 shares. There were small sales
for the foreign account in the early
dealings, which helped the depression,
but there was no great pressure to sell,
and there were during the morning
some rallies.
After midday the market became al
most stagnant, the trading being mostly
in the Specialties, which were quite
weak, while Chicago Gas. Sugar, the
Changers and most of the other usually
active stocks were without important
change. About delivery hour the tenn
per of speculation underwent change
for the better, what little trading there
was being on the bull side of the mar
ket.
Prices continued to advance to the
close, and the final trading was firm in
tone. Compared with the close yester-
day the final quotations today were
irregular, but majority of the stocks
dealt in show losses on the day, includ-
ing Sugar preferred. Distilling, Starch,
Northern Pacific preferred, Missouri
Pacific. Green Bay, Duluth. South
