Heavy Export Of Gold Made Nominal
Occasion for Selling.
New York, Feb. 1.-The heavy en-

tomorrow We're made the nominal oc-
casion for selling Of stocks to-day. But
taking of profits on yesterdays fever
ish and volatile advances was an obvi-
Gus motive in many parts of the list.
The weakness of these stocks was off
set by strong advances at other points,
according to the usual method of sup
porting the market to facilitate the TAX
ing of profits in favor by professional
operators. But the not very striking
advance in such stocks as Reading and
Missouri amongst the usual favorites,
even supplemented as it was, by the
rise in long list of specialties, proved
poor substitute as a stimulating in
fiuence for yesterdays move in the
Vanderbilts. The mass offered to the
market for digestion proved, under
these circumstances, somewhat heavier
than could be comfortably absorbed,
and the prevailing tone was heavy.
Large exports of gold were expected
this week, but an outgo for a single day
of upwards Of $9,000,00O in the precious
metal and the slight impression caused
by the enormous supply Of exchange on

The market was influenced by the
news of the large gold exports for to-
day. First one lot then another, and
another, was reported, until finally the
total to go ran up to nearly S10,0000OO.
This was a little too much for the bulls
and the market yielded. But the strong
support given indicated that the heavy
weights hadn't got quite ready to let
prices off much. Since the gold export
ing movement began on last October ~,
nearly $60000,00O has gone out. Of this
amount s1O,750,000 went to Cuba and
s7 $3.50, 900 to Buenos Ayres.

. sellers. There was a good borrowing
demand for the common. The directors
of the road met yesterday and the an
nouncement of the bond issue will be
made next week.
The setback in the Vanderbilt group
was one of the features of the day.
Omaha reacted several points, and
Northwestern more than 6. on small
sales. This was due to an effort on the
part of those who bid prices up Tues
day to take profits. New York Central
continued fairly steady, but Big Four
was heavy.
The United States Steel report was
surely favorable, but as all the news on

Wheat Takes a Rise.

Alleged confirmation Of black rust in
the wheat fields of fine northwest sent
the price of September wheat whirling
up to SO in Chicago yesterday. The
advance was 81 cents bushel compared
with Wednesdays closing.
The bulge was accompanied by scenes
of much excitement in the wheat pit
shorts frautically jOstling each other in
attempts to secure the coveted grain.
kilograms from Minneapolis and Duluth
detailing damage to the wheat crop in
South Dakota by the dreaded blight
were the cause of the excitement.
During the last hour of trading some re-
action occurred on pro6t-taking. The
market, however, closed strong, with
September at S7l, a net gain of p cents.
Wheat in New York advanced 8 cents
bushel yesterday on the rust news
shorts providing most of the demand.
1t reacted about a half cent near the
close in response TO rumors that dam
age news had been exaggerated fol
speculative purposes.
