Socks. Bonds and Money

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Speculation came
to hating place today and showed
much hesitation about branching cut into
new courses. The sharp movement in
evidently due to drive against the
shorts, which were put out in the course
of the speculative liquidation on previous
days. In the absence of important new
developments, the stock market followed
the normal course in the elimination or
a speculative movement, the price vi
brations becoming less by degrees. There
We're efforts which persisted during the
greater part of the day to contest the
dropping tendency of the market and to
continue yesterdays recovery. The
marking up of special stocks was the de-
vice reSorted to. 1t was not very effec-
tive at any time, although there was a
rally one time which generally wiped out
early losses. In the late dealings, how
ever, when the futility of the efforts of
the bulls became apparent, tired holders
began to throw over stocks. Prices went
to the lowest part of the day and gener-
ally closed there. st. Paul was under Sc
we're pressure, and lost 2ss.
The principal stay of the market dur
ing the time of resistance to the decline
was Manhattan. 1t closed with a net
gain of "a. There was strong advance
OF rs in Pittsburg. Cincinnati, Chicago
& st. Louis on supposed prospects of
larger dividends
Sugar, after an early decline, had it's
period of strength, but closed at net
loss of 2.
The money market has lost its stringent
tore, but renewal of supplies is by no
means so abundant as expected The sub
treasury has contributed a small amount
to the markets supply, owing to large
disbursements on account of the post
Office contracts, but this is contrasted with
weekly gains during January last year

are very large at this time, thus Offset

accounts.
Today's Bank of England statement
shows the weeks repayments of loans to
that Institution to have reached nearly
$40 000,000, thus more than offsetfing last
weeks free loan expansion. The bank of
England is thus placed in position to
control the London money market, and is
expected to use it's power to keep up
the money rate with view to attracting
foreign gold in preparation for the new
war loan now imminent An advance of
1 per cent in discount rates by the banks
of Bombay and OF Bengal, as made to-
day, is a not unusual preliminary to an
advance by the Bank of England.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER

the decline, so that South st. Paul is not
alone. Today the trade was very salts
factory. Prices were up a big 10 cents,
10 cents in some cases, and packers
bought quickly at the advance. There
were no hogs on sale good enough to
bring better than $685., but choice heavy
weights would certainly have sold at very
close to $3.50, and choice butchers would
have brought nearly as much. Prices to-
day ranged from $3.50, for nnder-weights,
to $6.35, for fairly good heavy hogs.
SHEEP-During the first of the week
the market dropped off 10 to Is cents.
Trade, however, held strong at the lower
prices, and practically everything that
has come to the yards has been moved
quickly To-day there was a stronger
feeling in the East, where prices have
ben going off much worse than at this
point. The advance was felt here, where
receipts were very light, and fancy ewes
and yearlings sold for as much as they
would have brought at any time. The
demand is good for practically everything
of good quality.
Very truly,

of this city and M o. Coggins & Co.
of Pittsburg control 26OO acres Of
melons grown in the Arkansas river
section. They have charge Of the
output at Fowler, at Manzsnols,
about 600 acres Of the 800 acres
grown at Rocky Ford, at NewdaIe,
at Fairmount, at Holly, at Amity
$50 acres at Granada and the entire
output of 280 acres at Lamar. In
all the combination is handling
about 700 acres more than it did
last year.
The greatest precaution was taken
by the growers at the above stations
the past season, with the result that
the flavor Of the melon is the beus
for many seasons. Mr.. Coggins was
on the ground long before the first
car went out and with his corps OF
inspectors is watching every crate
that is loaded to see that nothing
but the very best fruit goes into the
cars.
