New York, Jan. 1.-THE dealings at
the stock exchange to-day amounted to
only 13,3SS shares of stocks and 1888 600
railway and miscellaneous bonds. The
lndustrials monopolized the trading in
stocks and Inquired for nearly one-half of
the total. AT the opening Sugar was the

after an irregular opening, became firm
in sympathy with the rise in Sugar but
the changes were confined to narrow linn

situation, such as the withdrawal of the
New York Life Insurance Company from
the Morgan syndicate, had no influence
whatever. Speculation closed barely
steady in tone. Net changes show de-
clines of 14di5 per cent. in the railway

preferred lost %G7s per cent. Bonds were
firm. Sales were $7S3,OO0. The sales of
