CONSOLIDATED GAS LEADS MARKET,
WITH RAILS AND STEEL
RATHER WEAK.

NEW. YORK. Jan 1.-THE stock mar
ket today. though largely a professional
proposition, is firm, more active, and
showing higher prices. II general, the
opening was at Saturdays closing hg-
ures. Reading, St Paul steel and the
Pacifr. railroads took the lead and be-
fore noon most Of them had sold up a
point or more scattered ilI uide. lIoil

oTpred were well absorbed
il can hardly be said that the mar
k-t has assumed any definite trend
Opera tons today seem largely the re
suit Of bulliSH TumOrS upon which broh-

prevails that the liquidation OF the mar
ket has about run ITS course and most
OF the professional traders are preparing
for higher prices

ton OF some other point that might
seriously affect prices; but under nor
nal circumstances most Observers OF the
situation here expect "a moderate rise

In a comparison of results II IS seen
that the market generally IS lower no"
than In the FIRST week IN DecefIloeIs
and a rally 20 the third weeks figures

II is believed here that the greater
part Of the short interest II the nlarE>el

MARKET NEWS
NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, Jan 29.--Today's stock market was exempt again from the kind of selling pressure which disor- ganized the market of the early part of the week. The way was left open to some further recovery and moder- ate buying was sufficient 10 raise the price level. The action of Union Pa cifc in the face of the refusal of the government authorities to discontinue the suit to dissolve the merger with the Southern Pacific was an index of the extent to which the weeks liuui. dation has releived the situation. The stock has been most acutely affected of all the prominent market leaders by the weeks depression, presumably from apprehension of last nights de- cision by the attorney generals office tc push the suit against the company
 The dip in the price was but mo- mentary today followed by aggres. sive buying and an advance which carried the whole market with it by sympathy.
 Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value. were $1,576,O00,
 United States bonds were unchang. ed on call for the week.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Jan. 29-Southern sell ing orders encouraged renewal of lccal bear pressure in the cotton mar ket during todays late trading and al prices that had a sharp break from from the closing figures of last night, with the close easy at a decline of four points on January and of 10 to F points on the general list in re- sponse to disappointing cables.
 Local professionals considered that the bullish weekend figures had been discounted by the advance of Friday, but there was some trade support and little covering based upon the sta tistical position, and larger spot sales in the Liverpool market, which serv- ed to absorb offerings at about lne initial figures during the first few minutes. There was, however, no sign of aggressive bull support and later ill the morning selling orders from southern sources evidently ere ated an apprehension that the interior spot situation might be weakening or that the south was going short on prospects of a big new crop acreage this spring.
 At any rate the southern selling was followed by greater confidence on the short side. The close was at the lowest level of the day and about S1 to 33 below the high level of yes terday.
 Cables attributed the larger spot sales in Liverpool markets to end-of- month fixing and, generally speak ing, there seems to be rather a rapid distribution going forward of cotton held in the visible supply at the vari-

TOPOGRAPHIC WORK
ON KAUAI Is PAU

After more than eight months Of the
hardest kind Of work, the Topographic
survey Of the Island of Kauai has been
completed, and Chief Birdseye aud those
of his staff who still remain with him
will return to Honolulu tomorrow.
It was figured when the topographic
force first came to Honolulu that the
work on Kauai would not take over SIX
months But unexpected difficulties
were encountered, and the work of get
ting through the country proved to be
much harder than had been anticipated
Most of the force finished some weeks
ago, but Mr.. Birdseye and two or three
of his assistants have been steadily at
work finishing up. They are now
through.
superintendent Campbell said yester-
day afternoon that he thinks the map
of Kauai will be completed in time to
present to the legislature at its next
session.
II is probable that Mani will be the
next island to be mapped.
