BUOYANT MARKET
No Special Pressure to Sell and ResIlzations
Account for Shading In Prices.
SUGAR TAKES A WONDERFUL RISE.
improvements In the Market que to
Increased Buyins by Commissions
H0nses-Greatest Activity Was ia
IndustrlnIs Leather Preferred
Jumped Nearly Two Per Cent.

New York, Feb. 7.-Lower cables from
London led to sellers of stocks In the
local market during the early trading,
and @ general, though moderate, decline
In prices followed.
Ihere was no special pressure to sell
ana realfzotions easily account for the
slight shading In prices. AS the day
advanced. however. the market broad
ened and In The afternoon trading there
was a tendency to buoyancy. The i'm
provement in the market was the result
OF increased buying by commission
houses, a belief that the Morgan Syndi-
cate will be awarded Il large proportion
OF new bonds, which the street inter
prets as meaning Oh comparatively casy
weakening of the money market, at
least under the settlements of the new
loan are completed. The rise in call
loanst to seven per cent. to-day had no
significance and was due to bidding by
belated borrowers. The greatest activ-
lily was in the Industrials. Sugar hav-
ing risen nearly 3 per cent. to 1883. en-
buying by brokers said to be identified
with the refining interests. Leather,
preferred, jumped nearly 2 per cent. to
CSls. on stories that the dividend will
be delivered shortly. Distilling and
cattle feeding moved up to 1875 on an
increased business. Chicago Gas was
quiet at Gih@659s, the open opinion of
General Mallory adverse to the c~onsoli-
dalton of the companies having la 10
effect. In the late trading tobacco sud
denly dropped from 1919 to 76Ns. and this
started selling all along the line. The
issues receded II toNh per cent. in sym
pathy. In the final trading the MARIE,
was steadier in tone. Net changes show
gains of Il to 1N per cent. except for
Missouri Pacific, Manhattan and I'd,
bacco, which lost. n to 9 per cent.
5onds were active and strong. The
sales footed up the large total OF 50, 3O3,-
600.
The Norfolk Virginian. [volume] (Norfolk, Va.) 186?-189?, 1896-02-08

sell n little too freely. and it was due
to the short interest thus created that
such decided upturn took place later.
Up until noon the. tone averaged
steady with a few changes of unimpor-
lance: then the buying became more
pronounced and the advance alreudy
mentioned was established. May wheat
opened from ca to 66B, sold between G61s
Q66& and 6S8, closing at 6Sh@6SH-5s
OF a cent higher than yesterday. Cash
wheat was easy earlier. but closed>nom-
inally strong with the futures.
Corn did not draw much attention, us
the trading was of no weight OF. signi-
ficance, and nothing new in the situation
having developed. May corn opened at
3oM Q303s, advanced to 30M@30X, clos
ing u S0N-B sent higher than yester-
day. Cash corn Was steady.
Trading was very ordinary in oats.
The vagaries of wheat and corn prices
were reproduced In this market, but on
r. smaller scale. May oats closed I'M
Changed from yesterday. Cash oats
were A@k lower. the feeling at the
close being firm with the futures. The
weakness of wheat inc corn during the
morning was productive of selling of
provisions n prices declined II the
pressure. There was no buying induced
by the latter rally In grain. SO that re-
covery took place. AT the opening the
feeling was steady. advices from the
yards of an advance OF five cents in hogs
furnishing encouragement. At the close
May pork was 20 cents lower; May lard,
S cents lower, n May ribs. 7la@10 cents
lower.
