WALL STREET NEWS
Prices Uninteresting on Rec
ord Dull Day.
BUYING INDUCEMENTS ABSENT
Close Observers Assert transactions
in Ss7,0OO Shares Was Phenome-
naIIy Small, Compared with What
Could Have Been Handled If Prices
Had Been Lowered Slightly.

New York. Feb. "a casual visitor TO
Wall street to-day observing the dizziness
OF the security market might have
imagined that the session instead OF being
one just following holiday was the last
before a long coming suspension of busi-
hess. The days dealings in stocks OF
$4,000 shares was In fact not only the
smallest Of the year but the smallest since
the middle of last July, and as might have
been expected from the foregoing state
ment, fluctuations in prices were OF en-
tirely inconsequential character. It was
again, as It was toward the end Of last
week, a market in which liquidating
pressure has ceased, but in which strong
inducements to buy seem to be absent
likewise
Close observers OF the trading on the
floor Of the stock exchange asserted that
conditions were such, or. at least, seemed
TO be such. that much heavier volume
Of stocks could have been sold than was
actually sold to-day If prices had been
lowered a little from the days quotation,
that is to say that large market securi-
ties would have been apparently develop
ed at a slightly lower level OF quotations
On the other hand. there seemed TO be
a desire TO sell stocks.
Telephone Shares Strong.
A sharp advance comparatively OF over
two points was made by the American
Telephone and Telegraph shares. this be-
ing accomplished also by a corresponding
advance IN the American Telephone and
Telegraph convertible per cent bonds
No reason was attributed to the move
ment other than the recovery OF the Sc
curiues OF the company by spectators
who sold them through fears originating
some time since in the beginning Of It'll
cation over the company's purchases OF
stocks Of other companies and In the an
nouncement that q large block OF the
company's stock would be sold by the
Mackay companies.
This block OF stock, as it is now under
stood. has already been sold to a bank
ing syndicate or was sold previous TO the
announcement by the Mackay companies.
Particular strength. too. was shown by
the Rock Island. big Four" and ''Pan

Strength in Morning.
Generally. the market displayed a per-
ceptibly firm undertone throughout the
morning hours of business and a promi-
nent feature during this period was Read
ing common stock. which, at one time,
exhibited an advance Of over two points
from Mondays close; but in the after
noon the activity OF the market became
constantly less and less and prices in the
main developed a sagging tendency. At
the end quotations. save for few in
active stocks. showed slight change
from those finally made on the preceding
business day.
1t can only be again repeated In ex-
PLANTATION Of such a market as that seen
to-day that the movement of prices, or
rather their lack OF movement, is fol
lowing the usual traditions of the season
and that an additional reason for ex-
pecting dullness and quietness lies in the
unwonted excitement that has stirred the
