NEW YORK, Feb. 9-Some reluc-
tance developed in the movement Of
prices on the stock exchange today and
the efforts to get them higher We're
largely relinquished as the day
wore on.
The strength of few stocks did not
serve to prevent the average level of
prices from dipping lower than last
night. But the effect of the decline
ness and TO suspend prices at a range
only slightly below last night.
1t is regarded also as a technical
evidence of strength in the market
after an extensive rise if IA pause or
a setback in the movement does not
bring out large offerings of specu-
lative holdings to realize profits or to
save losses. One of the most striking
features of the recent market is the
seeming disappearance of stocks and
their failure to come out except at Il
substantial enhancement in prices.
Although the admission to the Atchi-
son directorate of Union Pacific inter-
ests is regarded as giving a measure of
credit to many rumors of railroad
deals,' the stocks affected hang back.
The same was true of the United
States Steel stocks on the conditions
reported in that trade, for which a
leading authority uses the emphatic
term astounding. mat Is TO say,
with production at the record high ra te
ii is still below the rate of consump-
ton as shown by the decline in the
stocks on hand during January. The
failure to respond by the steel stocks
and the Pacitics to news of this char
acter arouses the fear on the part of
the operators that other important de-
velopments which have been rumored
may fail to move prices up on their
announcements, even should they
prove true.
Official intmations that an addi.
tional Japanese loan was to be nego-
tiated may have had it's effect on the
London discount market. In spite of
the course of the exchange market,
there was buying of stocks here for
London account.
The early advance in Pennsylvania
and in Ontario e. Western, the
strength of Illinois Central and new
rise in the local fractions about eX-
hausted the list of important strong
stocks. The encouragement of the
buying demand permitted the early
gains to be generally wiped out and
the market closed easy at about the
lowest
The jump of 11ls in Great Northern
preferred was without effect on the
late market.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
$5,6S5, 900.
United States bonds were all un-
changed on call.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET
July Wheat Higher and Corn and Oats
Strong
By Atsoclated Preas.


CHICAGO Feb. 9.-Hlgher cables
caused some firmness in the wheat
market at the opening here today. May
was unchanged to A6kc higher at
T.16B to 81 1888. July also was un-
changed to Ac higher at $1.00B TO
81 l.01b. The initial firmness was due
to covering by shorts. Pit traders
were generally bearish, the liberal re-
ceipts in the northwest apparently
being held to outweigh small advances
at Liverpool Furthermore, fresh snow
had fallen throughout the west and
southwest. The July option was es-
pecially subject to selling pressure. In
consequence the price for the July de-
livery dropped to Sl.0O1a. fairly
active demand for May developed later
from commission houses May soon
rallied to $1.l67s. In sympathy July
advanced to $1.019s@$1. .O1k Bullish.
ness was dampened, however, by ad-
vices from the northwest. Prices soon
sagged off again on renewed selling
and the market closed barely steady
with May at S1.16ss Final quotations
on July were at 81 00%.
A revival of interest was witnessed
in the corn market trading being
quite active. May closed at the top
price, 45%c.
Strength of corn caused frmness in
the oats market. May closed at S012c.
Provisions were firm on moderate
demand from the commission houses.
At the close May pork was up 71ac;
lard was up &c and ribs 5@7lAc higher
