LONDON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, Jan 27.-The Evening Posts London financial cablegram says: The stock markets here were of better tone to-day, Amer leans and Argentines being the feature. Amer jeans, which closed at best, practically booming. The support is mainly from New York, but professional dealings here are strong and increasing. It is believed here that the Teller silver resolution will pass the United States Senate but the kind of profess sionals now dealing in Americans is too used to that sort of thing to be upset by 1t. The Lake Shore and New York Central very strong. Grand Trunk was lower. Bank of England stock is the highest e~Sr touched. It will be interesting to note the effect on the half years profits of the banks recent policy. Copper shares are recovering. The local dis count market continues very firm, and all the Continental exchanges are rising. It Is, how ever, rumored that more Japanese money will be released at the end of the week.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-There were niirnber of features of aggressive strength In to-day's stock market. but there was also evidences that the sustaining force of these special stocks was taken advantage of to sell out heavy lines of other stocks to realize profits. The center of interest in the market continued to be New York Central. The persistent advance in this stock is attributed very generally in the street to inside buying. and the reports of pending plan for the merging of Lake Shore and New York Central find very general credence All sorts of rumors are constantly coming in, pro- fessing to give in detail the plans for the first merging and also for the consolidation of vari- ous other Vanderbilt properties, but no official or authoritative announcement has been made nor is one expected. The advance in New York Central was twice arrested during the day by reactions. Large absorption of stock which developed before the decline had reached great length was suggested by the probability that the reaction was manipulated in the inter est of those seeking to acquire stock.

South Russia, officially said that Russia would probably soon have to become importer of grain that the Russian ports were closing again. and that a cargo of Argentine wheat, February shipment had been sold to-day at S5s Sd per quarter an advance equivalent to Sjzc bushel in two weeks. The Russian news had more effect later in the day than at the opening, which was nevertheless very strong. May closed yesterday at e4Zc and opened to- day at e4H HG941zc, while July started A9Ac higher at from S5tsGs6c.

About midday. and after the receipt of strong closing cables, the fun commenced and for the third day in succession January furnished the sensation. Up to that time the delivery had been heard of but seldom. Letter brokers again appeared in the pit, and their bids of q 02 for January, Pc above yesterday s closing price started shorts in the futures in a hurry. and the price of May especially ad- vanced almost fast the cash figures did For a few minutes the excitement was intense jumped May to &c., January in the mean time being quoted at s1 0211. The market quieted down somewhat for time but about half hour from the close the buying fever again broke out as the jumping of January was renewed. In very short space of time January was bid up to sl 05 May to 97Ac and July to STAG. These prices hung with heavy trading. At the close January was quoted at sl o4A May at s71s9s7Ac and July at s7Mc. A New York message received shortly after noon said that Letter had sold 1000 GOO bushels of wheat for shipment abroad
