STREET SPECULATION
The Market Dominated by the New
Popular Loan
The Conviction That the Loan VIII &c An
Unqualified Success, and Bidders
Prices Advance Sharply

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.--with the exception
of Sugar, which ranked third in volume of
business, the railroad list entirely out
classed the industtials in point of activity
today. The granRers. as agroup, nttrsc cted
the greatest share of interest. the domi-
mating influence upon the general market
was the conviction that the government
popular loan, for which bids will be opened
ut noon tomorrow, will be an unqualified
success, both in point of extensive bids and
high average of prices. As far as can be
learned, bids from three New York inetitu-
tions will foot up nearly 500, 900 900,
without considering the great amount of
scattered pids here and at the leading
financial centers of the country and the
probable heavy bids for European account.
Some of the foreign applications for bonds
are understood to have been cancelled
since the free silver victory in the senate,
but it is believed that the Withdrawals will
be made up for by demands
for other interests. The mar
ket from the outset was slightly
depressed. but soon proved superior to this
influence and also to foreign selling in this
market. Prices recovered and an upward
movement started. which was in turn
stemmed by determined drive at Mis-.
souri, Pacific. The Rrangers, sugar. and
Denver and Rio Grande preferred gained
19s to 2 per cent, while less important
gains were scored in number of In
stances.
The closing was fairly active and at the
best figures. The railway bond market
sympathized with the strength of the mar
ket, but the advances reached full figures
in only few instances. The aggregate
sales were 81, 1913 900. The bid prices for
governments advanced sharply. especially
for the new fours The dealings footed up
$4,000.

CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transactions on the Board Of

The Days Transactions on the Board Of
CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-There was good
deal of realizing in wheat at the start and
a considerable amount of short selling.
There was break during the first few
minutes of nearly 2 cents. The first tran
saction was at fully cent decline from
yesterdays close and went off fully u cent
more soon. The traders we're as nervous
and unsettled in their views as they have
been for d week. The appearance OF an
oder in the pit to buy or sell 100000
bushels would set the entire crowd to fol-
spwing in line with the direction of the or
der and occasionally they would lead it.,
making the execution of instructions
given TO a broker exceedingly difficult.
the pit smmered down to comparative
quiet for time. The for
eiRn markets sicnified their emphatic
dissatisfaction with the advance here
yesterday. Liverpool did not bulge this
morning. as shown by unexchanged quoto-
tions. and in the course of the forenoon
advised O decline of al. In addition 10
the indifference of foreign markets the re.
ceipts at Minneapolis and Duluth num-
bered 664 cars, a surprisingly large in
crease. A report from San Francisco say
ing that three cargoes OF wheat bought for
Australia had been re5old, helped to con-
