The Markets,
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of tho Days Dealings in All
Tho Leading Stocks.

New York, Feb. 9-When prices of
stocks started upwards this morning from
two to over three points for the ma jority
of the active speculative issues, it was
read as reversal of policy on the part
of the great controlling financial powers
rather than as rejecting any sudden
change in the condition of affairs. 1t
served notice, at the same time, that the
operations of the bear party would not
be allowed to go on unopposed.
Practical suspension of efforts to sup
port the market has been its marked
characteristic throughout the severest
portion of the recent depression. The
effect of this withdrawal of support has
caused the impression that inside inter-
ests in the great corporations and finan-
cial institutions were acutely apprehen-
sive of their own future on account of
the rigor of the laws, both those in force
and those in contemplation. There has
grown up spirit of criticism of the pol
icy of leaving the securities market open
to factors of depression without at
tempts to contest them.
The suspicion that this policy was
prompted partly by the fact that distribu-
ton had been effected on large accumu-
lations of stocks held by the important
financial powers, leaving it to their ad-
vantage to have prices recede and thus
afford opportunity for re-purchases at an
advantage, has added force to the criti-
cism. Whatever the inspiration the stock
market gave clear evidence from the out
set today that the downward drift of
prices was to be no longer opposed. The
late drive at the market yesterday had
to be made at the rebound. The effect of
the recovery on sentiment was obvious.
More cheerful views We're expressed of
business. industrial and political pros
poets.
The December earnings of the New York
Central lines gave material for ssumng
up of the results and made the text for
comparisons of conditions and of prices.
The combined operations of all the lines
in the system showed gross earnings for
the II months of 1898 S45, 503. an expan-
sion of $29,2 ,697 over the year before.
The increase in net earnings, allowing
for the growth of operating expenses,
amounted to $17,453,410, which is more
than SO per cent. greater than for the
| calendar year 1908. The fact that New
York Central shares sold this week lower
| than in February of last year was made
matter for some commentary on relative
conditions made now in the light of the
years operating results. New York Cen
trails response revived the buying and
completed the rout of the shorts. who
| bought very heavily in the closing deal
ngs, extending the principal gains to
