New York, January 1.-The financial

preston of confidence in present and
prospective conditions.

in the day to digest it thoroughly, but
first impressions were favorable and
helped to impart tone of strength 10
the market at the close.
The Hartman project and the quarter
1y report of the United States Steel
corporation, which came out after the
close of the market, were the noteworthy
features of a day which was barren OF
important news otherwise. The statement
of the Steel corporation for the final quar-
ter of 1910 shows earnings of s25991, 900.
with net earnings of 500, 100000. Earnings
for the year aggregating $14,14,O0o make
a very favorable comparison with those
of 1909 and 1908, which were s131, 491 900
and s91. S45 900 respectively
On the stock market the railroad issues
n especially the Hartman and Hill stocks.

with periods of uncertainty, which pre-
sumably reflected doubt as to the char
d. acter of the Steel report. United States
!. Steel was active and feverish, but in
the later hours of trading shared in a
general rise which placed values consider
ably above yesterdays close and touched
so, the high point of the year.

day were below those. of yesterday.

points up.
The feature of the morning was the in
creased interest taken in the new crop
position. Reports from Texas were that
the ground was baked and cracked TO a
great depth by months of drouth and the
high temperatures now prevailing This
stimulated buying of the distant positions
and the first trades of the season were
made in December, which rose 9 points
over yesterdays closing bid. After a
slight recession October steadied up and
held around 49, SOC. The old crops, after
a decline to a level points below yes
terday's close, recovered, and at noon
were points over yesterdays close. The
new crops were to 8 points up.
In the afternoon session the market
was quiet but very steady. At o'clock
the trading months were to 10 points

Cotton futures closed steady at a net
advance of / to II points.

New York, January 31.-(Special ITO
day the market showed firmer under
tone, closing steady at points advance.
The principal demand came from sew
eral local interests, also expecting de-
ehue under the easier advices from Man
chester became uneasy at the steadiness
of the market yesterday and covered to-
day.
October was frmer than the other posi-
tons. and small demand appearing on
the absence of rain in Texas. the dis
count between the crops narrowed. Ii is
pointed out by the bulls that despite the
larger movement they are able TO turn
the market on every decline to 14alc for
the immediate delivery. Liverpool should
advance 8 points tomorrow
