season, believing the market will not de-
cline except temporarily, until more is

and closed firm and unchanged, with sales
for the day of $50 casks. The market had
a strong undertone, and closed with a
good demand prevailing for all available
supplies. For time 1t was thought prices
were to drop to a distress point by those
disposed to take pessimistic view OF the
situation and this might have been the
case but for the timely interference of the
weather, which impaired a buoyant tone
TO the market, and brought buyers in
for everything in sight. The weeks 1e-
ceipts were 2,275, against 1918 last year.
and the exports 4,259, against ,i47 last
year.
ROSINS-The rosin market closed firm

New York, Jan. 4.-To-day was one
of the most exciting days in the history
OF che New York Stock Exchange. The

are transactions likely to be lost from
the record But there can be no doubt
that the aggregate sales for to-day exceed
anything ever done before on the ex-
change.
The recorded transactions footed up L.
Ss7 900 shares, compared with the previous
record OF 623 9i9 shares on Nov. H. 1900.
