STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. 2.-Today's stock
speculation furnished adequate proof
that increased interest was being mani
tested by the public in the market. This
supposition was based on the extensive
trading in railroad stocks which COM
prised properties trayerslng wide area.
Professional operators perceiving that
support from commission houses could
be relied upon in an upward movement
in the Standard stocks, devoted their
energies in that direction, causing the
Specialties to occupy a secondary posi-
tion in the market. This change of
front was in a measure due also to the
fact that some of the Industrials which
had sustained q substantial rise showed
evidences of good realizing. Recogni-
ton of the encouraging general sltua-
ton and indifference of the local marker
TO foreign complications formed the pri-
mary cause of the revival of outside in
terest. Important movements appeared
to l,e under way by substantial interests,
as today's strength developed in first
ono erouD of railroad stocks and then
another until the list showed gains run
ming from one to three and half points.
I'm connection with the enormous buying
ne tbe Baltimore and Ohio stocks, a
statement that the management had
sold SS. 100000 four per cent bonds of
the road and $2,500000 of that of
Subsidiary line to provide improvements
accounted for their buoyant rise. AS
the tendency of prices became pro-
nounced. arbitrage houses took advan-
taco Of the level to unload, but their
offerings of 10000 shares presented no
effectual check to the current. Long
standing short lines in some of the mid
die grade railroads were covered and
blocks of one thousand to three thous-
and shares figures plentifully through
out the list Interest was difused in
to great variety of stocks and at times
some Of the usually neglected ones We'd

with the recognized leaders in point or
animation Early operations Indicated
that powerful interests were engaged In
the Metal stocks, and prices OF the MINOR
securities followed jump of eight points
in Tennessee Coal and Iron to 104. This
stock suffered acutely from realization
as the day progressed and ended with
a gain of but three and quarter.
Prices of kindred properties were bet
ter sustained, but all relapsed from the
best figures. Fluctuations in 1hlrd
Avenue continued to be of a sensational
nature, an early rise to l0l being toi-
lowed by a break to 96 on liquidation
by interests disturbed by the measures
projected to finance the company's in
debtedness. A rally to 99as occurred IN
sympathy with the pronounced rise OF
the general market in the late dealings.
Other local utilities lacked feature aside
from the Gas securities which however,
did not fully retain a substantial rise
Western railroad stocks gave the first
indication of strength and held their eX-
IRENE rise
Among the high priced Industrials,
American Tobacco, Peoples Gas and
American Sugar achieved command
ing lead occasionally, but ended with
narrow net changes. Predictions as to

COTTON.
New York, Feb. 2.-It was an exciting
day in the cotton market with speculation
fully as large if not in excess of that
of yesterday. Though bull enthusiasm
was at a high pitch when the market
opened, sentiment later was hardly so
optimistic though far from bearish.
With a great bull flourish the market
opened firm in tone at am advance of 5
TO 10 points.
Energetic and general buying soon
carried prices to level 8 to ID points
above yesterdays closing figures, and for
time shorts were in confusion and
bordering on panic The cables indi-
Gated excitement with sensational adj
vances on the English market. From
the South came news of large business
IN spot cotton at an advance of "A to nc.
The statistical situation abroad, as well
as in the cotton belt, was shown by
weekly figures to be very strong. The
investment public took a greater inter
est in the staple, AN avalanche of buy
ing orders coming from all points of the
comnass. notably Europe. The advance
carried July within 2 points of the covet-
ed EIGHT cents" and all signs pointed to
May reaching that point before midday.
But when the bulls were most confident
and in the midst of an aggressive move
ment, the cable news suddenly changed
Heavy liquidation set in on the local
exchange, and before q breathing spell
was taken prices had stumbled 10 to II
points. Before midday, however, the
market had recuperated partially, but
spirited bull speculation did not again
prevail. Persistent expression of opinion
that the new crop positions were entirely
too high served to create distrust among
holders of those options, which in turn
checked free buying in the nearer posi-
tions.
The market in the Afternoon was quiet
but generally steady ON support from
New Orleans and Liverpool In view of
the short session tomorrow few operators
cared to launch important new ventures
more particularly as advices from South
Africa told of battle being on.
The market closed very steady at net
rise of from to 8 points.
