Y YISTEKDAY'S SpOCk MARX ET
Distinctly One of speciaIties.

New York, Feb. 14.-To-day's stock market was distinctly one of spe- cialties, and but few stocks of the first rank will be found in the list of those fluctuating as much as point. The market was decidedly duller than has been the case recently, especially among the standard stocks. There was a marked falling off in operations by some of the recently active pools, and the absence from the street of some of the notable speculative operat- ors was supposed to account for this
 Such of the days developments as had any importance were without much ef- feet on stocks and the tone was hesi- tating and irregular. Some of the special advances were due to rumors affecting the individual properties con- cerned, these in number of cases pointing to intended dividend declar- ations on stocks which now receive no disbursement. In some of the low priced industrials there were feverish upward spurts from this cause. There were traces of last weeks movement in the iron and steel group, but the move ment showed signs of continuation and the United States Steel stocks especial ly were indifferent and sluggish.

ly gross earnings for the first week of February showed the effect of storm obstruction and of the grain rate war, especially on southern and southwest ern systems, for which there were number of decided decreases compared with last years earnings. There was an appreciably f1rmer tone in the time money market as a result of the large decline in surplus reserve shown by Saturdays bank statement. But this was largely nominal, owing to the scanty activity. The reduction in the official discount rate of the imperial bank of Germany was accepted as an index Of relaxing money conditions in all the foreign markets. The rumors of peace were also an effective influ- ence in foreign markets, which was re- flected here by the buying of stocks for foreign account. The role of sus- taining factor which was held by the specialties and the foreign buying early in the day was assumed by Un- ion Pacific in the later dealings. That stocks rise to the high level of the year was not explained by any news developments. The strength of that stock sustained the latter market and made the closing steady.
 There was a broad demand of bonds of other than the first grades and a firm tone to that market. Total sales, par value, $4,415, 900.

and Taxpayers of the TOwn-April
 an Inconvenient Time for Farmers to
 be Agitated by an EIection-Bn Will
 he Rejected.
 Hartford, Feb. 14.-Attorney Robert J. Woodruff won notable victory this afternoon before the committee on cit ies and boroughs. He was counsel for the rural taxpayers of the town of Or ange and for several of the business people of West Haven, who were pres ent in large numbers to oppose bill, introduced by Representative Wilkin- son, of the same town, providing that the date of the town election be chang ed from October to April. The immedi- ate purpose of the promoters of the measure was that the liquor dealers, who, under the existing arrangement, have only to take out a six months li- cense, from May 1 until November i, would, under the change, be obliged to take out a full years license, from May until May 1 following.
 Attorney Woodruff was retained by the farming population of the town to oppose the measure, their grounds for opposition being that April was a very inconyenient time for agriculturists to be called upon to participate in an elec- tion; that the shifting of election dates from October to April would necessitate the shifting of the time for paying taxes from September, as at present, to April, and that farmers can pay taxes with less trouble in the fall than in the spring, and, finally, that if saloonkeep- CTS were obliged to take out twelve months licenses they would keep their places open all the year round, and that the cost of policing the shore would ex- ceed the gain to the town which it might make in the increase of license fees.
 Judge Bryant and c. K. Bush, judge and prosecuting attorney, respectively, of the town court of Orange, and Wal ter Main, first selectman, were the only supporters of the measure, while MT. Woodruff called at least twenty of the substantial men of the town in opposi- tion. Among these were Charles Clark, w. c. Russell, J. Russell, B. F. Clark, W. J. Scobie, Nicely O'Connell Charles U! 'Neumann, Leonard F. Andrew, w. F! Andrew, Warden James H. Peck and Dwight H. Clark.
 Tt is understood that Representative Wilkinson, who is member of the committee on cities and boroughs, fa- yors the measure, but if the great pre- ponderance of evidence against it counts for anything there is little doubt that the bill will be unfavorably report ed and rejected.
 The committee on cities and boroughs is composed as follows: Senators Chat field (chairman) and Coe; house chair man, MT. Lee, Bridgeport; clerk MT. Ives, Danbury; Messrs Smith. Hart ford; Tenn, Meriden; Manross, Bristol Wilkinson. Orange; Reed, North Canaan; Simmons, Plainfield; Johnson, Morris.

The restaurants, whose glaring electric
