EUROPEAN INQUIRY FOR BONDS.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26-Today's movement in
stocks was irregular, but firm tone was dis
cernable, in spite of a light volume Of bust
ness. The anthracite coal shares were again
the features, but displayed an Improvement
on covering and some purchases for the long
account, induced by the more seasonable
weather. 1t is believed, however, that
short interest Of fair-sized proportions still
exists, based upon the long continued I'M
favorable conditions affecting the industry
and in anticipation of dicouraging annual re-
ports by the Baltimore Ohio and Lacka-
wanna companies. 1t has been assumed that
the aforementioned has suffered as heavily
as the former in point of loss of earnings,
and a reduction of dividends from the pres
ent per cent basis has not been overlooked.
The high leaning rates current have also been
regarded as to an extent manipulated to con-
ceal long selling. On the rally today Lack
awanna gained and fairly well held IL per
cent, Delaware Hudson and New Jersey
Central rs and Reading q per cent improve
ment In the general list the grangers and
some of the high priced industrials were all
well supported.
The apathy Of speculation was relieved in
the final hour by heavy Washington pur-
chases of stocks said to be inspired by the
more favorable outlook for the international
treaty. LONDON houses sold moderate
amounts Of loW-priced shares, but at the same
time bought considerable aggregate amount
of speculative bonds. The high-grade invest
ment stocks were more conspicuous than for
some time past. New York Central, however,
developed a decided weakness, and sold off
1B per cent There was no news on the
stock, and the decline was attributed to
liquidation of speculative holdings. The mar
ket closed strong at important fractional
gains generally.
The bond market was fairly active and de-
cidedly strong, with good European inquiry
apparent for speculative issues. The sales
were 81, 253, 900. The principal advances were:
Louisville & Nashville 5s and Union Pacific
gold IS, III; Union Pacific sinking fund IS. /;
and International and Great Northern Ids,
Peoria Eastern lists and st. Paul, l. & M.
division, lists 1 per cent. The Hooking Val
ley issues displayed weakness, rejecting the
unsatisfactory condition of the bituminous
coal industry. Governments were neglected
but slightly higher all around The transac-
lions were 81, 600.
The total sales Of stocks today were so, 247
shares, including: Sugar, $500; Burlington,
