STEEL STOCKS ARE AGAIN ID THE FORE Heavy Transactions Finally Out

 More Than Expected.
ATTENDANCE WAS SLIM

New York, February 1.-The interest in the United States steel stock, which was newly revived yesterday in response to the activity of the minor steel stocks, was carried over into the early dealings today. After some heavy transactions the realizing in all of the steel stocks out-weighed the demand and their prices were carried backwards. Colorado fuel made the conspicuous rise in the group, with an advance of g, and held better than the other members of the group.
 The attendance at the board was rather slim as was expected in anticipation of the Monday holiday, and the trading was lncking in animation. The ceiling move- ment seemed to be to close up outstand- ing contracts for protection over the hol- idays. But some effect on sentiment was produced by the circulation of reports that information had been received from Washington of a determination reached by the President to call an extra ses- sion of Congress for the consideration ot the question of freight rate control unless some legislation was secured at the present session of Congress. The first erport of railroad gross earnings for the first week of February showed some de- clines from the southwestern region of the country. which wer esupposed to be due from the export graia rate war, and officials of western railroads were reported as complaining that the reduced rates were bringing little increase in the shipments of grain. Prices hardened again during the latter part of the se-- sion, apparently on account of covering of shorts put out carrier, and tL days net changes are unimportant The clcs- ing tone was irregular. The bank re- turn, although weak, was no worse than expected. and the great ease of the money market detracts from it's serious consid- eration. Total sales of bonds, par value, S3, ,020 900.
 The weeks stock market has given an impression of strength that is not entirely born out by a close analysis of the price changes which show a large proportion of small declines maintained with strik- Ing gains in the active issues. The deduc- ton to be drawn is that there has been extensive realizing under cover of the sustaining effect of the sudden advance in special stocks. General conditions have been good, and the moderate response of stocks to these conditions, in itself. has given occasion for question about future conditions in the securities market. Within two weeks past the United States Steel corporation has published its re- port of earnings for the December quar- ter, showing an excess of the most opti- mistic previous estimates which had been used to stimulate the demand for those securities This week the statistics of January iron production show rate of output at the record level, and indicates a yearly production of 21000.0 900 tons. while consumption Is so we'll maintained as to

smollen 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

The cotton market was a very narrow affair for the short session today. New York being closed Liverpool was about 5 points lower for futures, while spots were 2 points lower with sales of 1000 bales which was considered very good for the short day. July in New Orleans open ed points higher at 7.90, eased off to 7.26 on some light liquidation by buyers of yesterday, who did not care to carry their contracts over Sunday. Spots were un- changed at 9-16 with sales of 250 bales. A reaction, such as we have had for the past two days was in order after such sharp advance as cotton has had in the last ten days. We must expect that cot ton will be for sale on any material ad- vance from the present price, this being the natural tendency of the market. But we do not believe that the advance of the past fortnight will cause planters to fol- low a policy which will bring the value of cotton down to a permanently low level. The value of the surplus of this crop de- pends upon the ability of the planter to hold, and his desire to hold depends upon the development of the preparations for the new crop. We are of the opinion that the planter will reduce his acreage at least 20 per cent and see no reason why the staple should not seek a much higher level

Ware 6 Leland,s Market Letter.

New Orleans. February 11.-Advices from
 Liverpool attribute the decline to the sell
 ing by importers and the continent also expressed the opinion that further de- pression was not expected at present. The loss of points in values was no greater than anticipated Spots declining three points on sales of 1000 bales. The worst kind of weather and fore casts of more of the same kind caused recent shorts to seek cover. Early buy ing orders caused a good advance after which about half of the gain was lost, when a fresh purchasing wave made it's appearance and carried prices to the high point of the day.
 The bearish beatures of the visible sup ply and mill takings settlements were without any apparent influence in check ing the advance. nevertheless the small amount of cotton taken by mills during the week viewed in connection with the dry goods situation, as stated by the commercial agencies furnishes a subject for consideration and one which unless improvement is observed. will be a factor of importance later.
 We expect an cratic market until bet | ter weather conditions prevail, with fuc- tuations sufficiently wide to offer oppor- tunites for scalping on either side, but believe selling on bulges" will prove the safest course.
