TONE OF MARKET IS SPROFESS|ONAL Trading Is Almost Entirely Given Over to That Fac
 tiOn in Stocks

New Yerk. February 3.-The outstanding feature of today's dull and irregular stock market was it's extremely professional character. Trading was almost entirely given over to that faction, which con tinued it's operations on the bear side, Judging from thk quiet but persistent pressure upon leading issues for the greater part of the session.
 United States Steel. which led yester- days rise kept well above its new rnin- mum. most of the selling concentrating upon Reading and Canadian Pacific These stocks, particularly Reading, manifested some heaviness in the London market where the international list. with few exuptions, tended towards lower level Selling for foreign account here was not sufficiently large to affect quoted values
 There were some contrary movements in the industrial and special groups, Pe- troleum shares adding to recent gains on reports of another advance in the price of the crude product Fertilizer issues also scored substantial advances while the sugar stocks declined precipi- tately during mid-sesson. Closing prices in many issues were below yesterdays S. National Biscuit and Missouri Pacific de- veoping sudden weakness.
 Cereal markets attracted less attention, although May wheat once more moved in sensational fashion, suffering a severe decline at the close. Commission houses with local connections report marked decrease in wheat operations for New York account. Unofficial advices suggest ed continuance of the large foreign demand for our foodstuffs and cotton.
 Trade authorities report a better feel ing this week in the steel industry the more important companies expecting a further increase running into March, This is evidenced in the additions recently made to the working forces in the Pitts burg and Cleveland districts.
 The feature of the bond market, which reflected the contraction in stocks, was the introduction to the board of the new Pennsylvania railroad 4la per cents, which sold at their recent high price. Other wise, the price movement was irregular Total sales, par value, aggregated s1969,- 600. United States bonds were unchanged on call, but the 2s and As gained on actual transactions.

Washington. February 3.-Several Iii clearing up discrepancies in the navlg | ton laws were passed by the HouseNa day. The measures were designed eI peciallv to facilitate operation undI American register of foreign built shl owned by American citizens or corporJ tions
 When the Panama canal act and reeel amendments to the navigation laws Il tablished the policy of admitting forell Il built ships to registry when owned | Americans. penalties and discriminahl duties imposed on such vessels remain on the statute books.

The Wheat Market Closes at a Decline of 4 3-Sc
 to , 3-4c

Chicago, February s.-Fmctuatious coy ering a range of sae. demoral'zed wheat todays and finally left prices unstrune at 4ssc to 5s4c under last nights. Other net losses were: Corn, 2hc to 2ssa2i4c; oats, 1902 to 2isc, and provisions DC to 2oc
 In a selling panic at the outset wheat fell siac to s15694. and then shot up to sl66, a new high record of the war sea- son. Wild rumors of immediate probable opening of the Dardanelles and of peace moves were chiefly responsible for the collapse at the start Stoppage of export demand caused depression after the bulge, 1t being said that steamship com panies were making expensive and diffi- cult requirements on account of German submarine attacks.
 Cola resisted selling pressure better than wheat, although rural offerings to arrive showed an increase.
 Oats followed the general lead of wheat
 Pork developed considerable strength at one time in sympathy with higher hog prices. Packers were free sellers how ever.

NEW YORK COTTON
 TAXES A TUMBLE Realizing From Wall Street and Western Sources
 Depresses Prices

New York, February s.-Cotton was lower today under more or less realizing from Wall street and western sources, with the close barely steady at an ad- vance of to points on overnight buying orders attracted by the strength of late yesterday, and in sympathy with the steady showing of Liverpool There ap- peared to be some demand from trade interests as well as scattered commits sion house buying after the call, but the market soon turned easier under heavy selling which may have been promoted by reports that Russian and German buy CTS were withdrawing from the spot mar kets, and of a slackening demand for cot ton freight room.
 Trade interests continued to buy on the scale-down, and there were slight ral- lies from time to time during the day, but each bulge seemed to meet increased offerings of long cotton, and closing prices were practically the lowest of the day.
 The unsettled and nervous ruling of the grain market may have been partly re- sponsible for liquidation of cotton by houses with western connections, and eX- cept for some New Orleans selling here during the early trading, there appeared to be no offerings of consequence from southern sources. German advices re- ceived in Washington reported a declining ! arket for cotton in Bremen, owing to the increased offerings, and there were re- poits of declining freight rates from gulf ports.
 The buying by trade interests here was supposed to be for tbe purpose of cover ing hedges against les of cotton to do- mestc mills. and spot markets as of hclally reported lr e in the afternoon were generally stead with fair sales at a number of poi $

Berlin, February 3.-(By wireless.)-A statement attributed by the. Overseas News agency to the Hungarian minister of finance is to the effect that an ample supply of foodstuffs for Austria and Hun gary until after the next harvest is as- sured beyond doubt.

 Deposits in Vienna savings banks in- creased considerably in January by com ps rison with the preceding year.

IS
 CAUSE OF DECLINE UndertOne at New Orleans Fairly Good and No Great
 Weakness Shown

New Orleans. February 3.-Liquidation of the long interest worked against the price of cotton today but the undertone was fairly good and at no time was any pronounced weakness displayed. At the lowest the trading months were B to IA points under yesterdays final prices and the close was at net loss of to 13 points. The market stood at a decline throughout the session except for short period around the opening, when the most active months were at an advance of to ? points.
 The steadiness of the market at the decline was due to the amount of fresh buying orders. This buying was stim- ulated by the strength of southern spot markets and the continued heavy export movement. Shipments this week prom ise to be the largest of any week this season amounting tonight to S43, 792 bales. Bulls predicted that they would go over 100000 for the week.
 Exporters said that a further rise in war risk rates had been announced. Bears considered this an unfavorable feature but shippers did not think 1t would in terfere with the outward movement of the crop

New York, February 3.-(Special) )-Both the American and European markets have been affected by today's profit-tak- ing on the advance. At the opening there were apparently a large number of De- tobers for sale at 40, and this led to rather heavy realizing on the part of out side holders and southern hedges, with the idea that the market would react be- fore it would again advance. Probably the large exports also had the effect of leading Liverpool to believe that they would obtain all the cotton they needed at about present prices.
 Outside traders are somewhat inf1u- enced by the Idea that on the basis of present prices there would not be a large reduction in acreage.
