cent per pound in certain grades OF hard
sugar.
The particularly weak spots were Man
haitian, Leather. preferred, and Tobacco
Manhattan breaking from los to loi "a.
Leather, preferred, from 6S IA to TO, ana
Tobacco from 81 to rs 5-S. Manhattan's
weakness was due to the poor statement
for the December quarter, which shows
a deficit OF slD,S75. against surplus In
1894 OF s5S,25l. Leather, preferred, was
heavy on the reiteration OF the rumors
that the February dividend will be passed,
and Tobacco was depressed by liquida-
tons.
The loss In the general market ranged
from IL to I1-2 per cent, and was well
distributed Sugar he'd relatively firmer
than the other active issues. and
closed practically unchanged on the
day. The weakness of the market
was rather disappointment to the bulls,
who were looking for considerable higher
figures on account of the defeat OF the
silverites In the House yesterday. Near
the close a rally OF 1905 per cent. took
place. but speculation left off weak In
