the small proportions of commission
house business at this time. The in
dustrial stocks had a rather more
prominent place in the trading to-day,
as they did yesterday, but their price
movement was very spotty. The spec
ulators who inaugurated the movement
in those stocks yesterday were in
clined to take profits. This was con-
spicuousIy evident in the United States
Steel stocks and in Sugar. The oper-
ators seemed to be prompted by the
new antitrust measures in congress.
This indicates that yesterdays con-
certed movement TO put up the indus
trial stocks was probably based upon
the assumption that the programme for
antitrust legislation by the present
session Of congress had been completed.
The bull campaign in Amalgamated
Copper was continued this morning
and that stock was lifted an additional
l ga but the later reaction in the mar
ket left only a small fraction of this
gain. The rise of 3-S in Tennessee
Coal was based on the increased earn
mig disclosed by the annual report and
the expenditure of these earnings on
the property without any intimation of
early dividend disbursements did not
seem to detract from the favorable in
nuence. The point rise in Anaconda
with a reaction of IA was in sympa-
thy with Amalgamated. There was a
notable demand for American Locomo-
tive late in the daybut its rise was not
fully maintained. Metropolitan Street
Railway led further advance in the
local fractions, which was not held. The
rather active selling movement which
developed midway Of the session was
prompted by the we'll defined rumors
that exports of gold were being nego-
tiated for Thursdays steamer. Ster-
ling exchange advanced several points
here but reacted a fraction Of Gen.
time in Paris. The higher rates for
time money here operate as an obstacle
to an outgo of gold. London was
light buyer of stocks here to-day and
the fact that part of the Erie CONVEX
tible bond issue to go abroad promises
a supply Of exchange. On the other
hand the buying of grain for export to-
day was rather light, thus restricting
the supply of exchange.
There was heavy selling of st. Louis
and San Francisco funding bonds. The
generally was irregular. Total
sales par value $3.50, goo.

A CONCERT LAST NIGHT.
BY the Sight Reading Glass of thu
Choral Irninh

BY the Sight Reading Glass of the
Choral Union.
The sight reading classes that are
held at Steinert's hall each Tuesday
evening, under the direction of W. G.
Brown, teacher of sight reading in the
normal schools, had a rally night last
evening and n small and select con-
cert was given at this celebration, and
was greatly enjoyed. 1t must be re-
menbered that DR.. Damrosch has dem
onstrated that nine out of every ten
men and 80 out of every 100 women can
learn to sing and read music from
notes. These sight reading classes, as
the preliminary step towards member
ship in the choral union, have been
quietly but steadily making intelligent
advancement. Many undertook the
work seriously and are now readers.
1t is a study which, while not as en-
PERTAINING and absorbing as the tuneful-
ness of the glees and orchestras with
Mr.. Haesche's classes, is of absolute
value to every would-be singer or mu-
stefan.
Mrs. Martha w. Wurts, who has had
hhis branch of the choral union in
charge is anxious to double the attend
ance simply in reference to the many
applications of men and women with
good voices, but who do not come up to
the standard required by Mr.. Haesche.
These remaining weeks, under MIR.
Browns careful instruction would place
them on fine footing for the 10000
season Of the Choral union For that
reason the management has decided to
place the fee for instruction at only
thirty-fve cents until the close of the
season.
The following artists were heard last
night: Mrs. George B. Martin. New Ha-
ven's foremost amateur pianist: Mrs.
Arthur Morrill,, soprano; Miss Bertha
T. HUME, contra Ito; William E. Brown,
tenor; Chadwick Stock, baritone; Mr..
Fisher, tenor, a pupil of Mr.. Stocks.
The concert was a rare treat, and all
the artists were enthusiastically ap-
plauded.

pensions to Lafayette Babb, Of Mill

movement of Prices Confused and
Irregular
New York, Feb. 1.-THE movement of
prices of stocks to-day was confused
and irregular and accurately reflected
in that way the state of mind of those
who were trading. The interruption to
the wire service by the storm was given
as one cause for the dearth Of outside
orders, but business from commission
houses was at a low level from any
source. The general approval accorded
to the petition to the governors Of the
stock exchange to make Saturday
holiday, in addition to the regular Mon
day holiday, is sufficient indication of
