The Situation
in Wall Street.

New YORK, Feb. 13.-Henry Clews
Co. in their review of trade conditions
say:
Wall street still excites surprise by
the continuance of its extraordinary
speculative boom. The market is al
most unprecedented in the persistency
OF its activity and firmness. Its elias
ticity is entirely in an upward direction,
and naturally nobody cares to take
profits so long as prices keep advancing.
Last week the daily transactions in
stocks fell from a maximum of 2,000,-
600 shares to minimum OF 900, 900
shares, and yet without any correspond
ing fall in prices; in the past week the
daily sales have bounded back to ] $780,
600 shares, but with no such rise in val.
ues as might be expected from such an
increase in buying. The movement is
wholly abnormal. There is no explain
ing it by the ordinary rules Of specula-
ton; it is plainly under the direction
of special influences of absolutely con-
trolling force, which nobody has the
courage to oppose, whilst holders gen
orally are ready to follow to any
lengths.
