duce. n demand Is not at all brisk. but
prices are practically unchanged. small
quantities OF southern vegetables are com
ing into The market. but as fancy prices
are quoted, the sales are apt 70 be
heavy. farmer are taking advantage OF
their inactivity at home. n are hauling
in the streets as low as SO. but averaged
from Sill TO $13 a ton. There has been no
change in live stock quotations. The mar
ket IS comparatively dull. Sugars and cof-
fees have advanced slightly, the change
being due in a measur TO the recent &C
vances in freight rates. Broon1s and WOOD

METAL.

NEW YORK, January 10.-In the
main there was little change in the To-
cal metal situation to-day. Business
was conducted along conservative lines
and the price movement was unusually
narrow. Tin continued to attract spe-
cial attention, however, and ruled
more or less irregular throughout. At
the close the metal exchange called
pig iron warrants quiet; lake copper
unchanged at $3.50; tin unsettled with
$3.50 bid and $3.50 asked; lead steady
with $40 bid and s4.75 asked: spelter
dull with s4.45 bid and s4.55 asked.
The brokers' price for lead is s4.45
and for copper 1850.

DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK. January 1O.-There
has been no change to-day in the mar
ket at first hands for any description
of cotton goods. Brown bleached and
coarse ~cottons. prints and ginghams
have all been in quite moderate de-
mand without change of any moment
in prices. The print cloth market is
very dull throughout. Wooden and
worsted dress goods strong but cur
rent demand quiet Silks firm, with
Indifferent sales. Jobbers are doing a
good business and sales since the be-
ginning of the year are well ahead Of
the corresponding period last year.

The markets here to-day were IDLE

brokers said the volume OF business
was the smallest in a dozen years. The
general tendency was steady, all the
markets awaiting a solution OF the
problem in the Transvaal. The settle
ment, as anticipated, disclosed a mea-
gre open account. Contangoes began
at the rates which prevailed at the last
settlement, but traders were 0 un-
able to place their money. Bankers
generally charged 4h@5 per cent, but
some of them were ready to take 4 pei

to be the smallest for several years.

NEW YORK, January 10.-The stock
market was dull and narrow to-day ex-
cept for the sensational development
effecting the stock OF the American
Sugar Refining Company.
Previous to the assembling OF the
stockholders meeting, there was a con-
siderable show Of strength in this stock
owing to a general conviction chat the
sugar trade war has more OF shadow
than Of substance in 1t. The declara-
tions contained in the presidents an
nual report rather took Wall streets
breath and caused fear that unless con-
ditions change dividends on the stock
may be suspended. The stock declined
rapidly, the price varying as much as
1h between sales. The first drop took
the stock to 122, when it steadied and
rallied above 124. 1t fell again to 117%,
bringing out heavy stop loss orders on
the way down, rallied to near 122, re-
acted 8 and again rallied in the final
dealings. The large and persistent OUT
standing short interests in the stock
served as a re~cuperative force by buy
ing to cover contracts. All the prom
inent industrials were quite sharply af-
fected in sympathy, the bears Selling
the opportunity to offer prices down
and stop loss orders. The rail-
roads were much less affected, although
the earlier gains were mostly wiped out
There was good buying in the railroads
at the decline, led by the Baltimore &
Ohio stocks OF the company's strong
statement Of December earnings. The
general relaxation in money rates all
over the world had induced a convic-
ton that the official discount rates,
both of the Bank OF England and the
Imperial Bank of Germany, will be re-
duced tomorrow, and board room trad
ers were inclined to buy stocks in an
ticipation of a foreign demand on this
account.
Stocks were generally firm to-day in
foreign markets on account of the cas-
Ter money rates. But it is very clear
that the money market owes its abund-
ance and ease to thorough liquidation
of speculative accounts, which have
been effected all over the world in the
last few weeks, and to lack OF renewed
speculation. Spectators are apparent
ly still disinclined to take on stocks,
and to-day's market was but a narrow
affair, even taking into account the
violent price movement of some of the
specialties. The prevailing dullness Is
attributed by traders to fears Of I'M
favorable news from South Africa, but
1t is not improbable that the existing
conditions there, as we'll as in the
financial world, have been accurately
discounted in the speculative markets.
New Developments are awaited TO
warrant a new adjustment of values.
The bond market was dull and moved
in sympathy with railroad stocks. Total
sales par value 81, 025, 900.

the ground that Devlln had failed to &C.
count for $4,000 which he IL alleged TO
have secured from placers in the north
after being "grubstaked' by the plant
ms.
Yesterday Devlin filed In the superior
court exhaustive AFFIDAVIT giving
minute account OF his operations during
the time which he was in tho Kiondike.
He alleges that when he first went TO
Dawson he worked upon a layout on
which he made 81 $50. Half of this sum
he alleges was forwarded to Ills grub
stakers together with n notice that their
relations would thenceforth be severed.
Devln admits that, after this attempt
ed abroRation Of the contract he associat-
cd himself in the express business with
one Perkins at Dawson and accumulat-
cd the sum OF $1,000 together with
