Stocks and Bonds.

New York Jan. 26.-To-day's movement
IN stocks was irregular, but n firm tone
was discernible in spite of a light volume
of business. The anthracite coal shares
were again the features, but displayed i'm
proVement on covering and some purchases
Tor the long account induced by the more
Seasonable weather. 1t is believed how
ever, that a short interest of fair sized
proportions still exists, based upon the long
continued unfavorable conditions affecting
the industry and anticipation of discourage
ing annual reports by the Delaware &
Hudson and Lackawanna companies. 1t
has been assumed that the last mentioned
has suffered as heavily as the former in
point of loss of earnings, and the probable
ity of a reduction of dividends from the
present per cent basis has not been over
looked. The high loaning rates current
for the shares has also been regarded as
to an extent manipulated to conceal lone
selling. London houses sold moderate
amounts of the low priced shares, but at
1000 barrels: shipments, 5000 barrels: dull,
but firm; patents. S4.55G465; extra fancy.
the same time bought n considerable ag-
gregate amount of speculative bonds. The
high grade investment stocks were more
conspicuous than for some time past and
in many instances scored substantial gains.
The market closed strong at important
fractional net gains generally.
The bond market was fairly active and
decidedly strong, with a good European in
quiry apparent for speculative issues.

DIRE DISTRESS AT BIJAPUR.
Report of the Associated Press Cor
respondent Who Is Touring
Famine Stricken India

Bijapur, Presidency of Bombay, Jan. 90
The correspondent of the Associated Press.
who is visiting the distressed provinces of
India, has arrived at Bijapur, about 245
miles southeast of Bombay, and finds in
this district the keenest distress, especially
among the people of the lower castles.
These are on the verge of starvation and
are only saved from it by the government
relief work, which enables them to earn
enough money to at least keep body and
soul together while awaiting the brighter
state of affairs which recent rains are eX-
pected TO provide later in the year.
1t is estimated that fully one-tenth of the
cattle in this district have already periShed
from lack of fodder. There are many
bands of robbers engaged in pillaging
grain stores whenever an opportunity
arises, and the prisons are full of thieves
who have been captured while stealing
grain or in attempting to do so.
Among the masses there are many cases
of illness arising from lack of proper nour-
ishment and emaciation, and it is regarded
as certain that cholera will reach this dis
ness of the people. who dread being taken
to the hospitals provided for their care
believing that they are certain to die with
in a fortnight if they enter a hospital. Be
yond doubt the utmost resources of the
government will be taxed before long in the
efforts which will have to be made to cope
with the steadily increasing distress.

The London Mark Lane Express yester-
day in its crop review. estimates the short
age of the Indian wheat crop at upwards OF
100000 quarters. and says: The increased
pressure of American flour in the British
market is causing some anxiety to the mill
erS who tiattered themselves at this time
in 1896 that American competition had been
Coiared."
4 letter from Liverpool to a prominent
Kansas miller says: Thoroughly reliable
firms here, who know the South American
trade well, now say positively that Argen-
tine viii have little or no wheat to ship on
this crop, and point as evidence of the fact
that shippers who have sold cargoes short
in anticipation of some eXportable surplus
are buying them back. and others who are
unable to come to terms with the buyers
are covering with Danubian. Russian, etc.
The temperature continued about as low
yesterday Monday, and zero weather
extends as far south as Springfield, with
freezing weather all the way down 20 the
gulf The moderation in temperature pre-
dicted for yesterday did not come. and
there is no certainty of much rise in tenn
perature to-day. There is a prospect of
considerable snow in few days, as the

sure at Santa Fe is an inch less than in
