New York", Feb. 3.?Stock values re- | reived a b< i'cre test to-day. the mnr ket at one time bordering on tUe jr.n Icky stage through the enormous out pouring of si n k from professional and commission house sources, but the day left nit" with Irregular changes of a fraction cither way, with the tone strong. Before tin* opening it was ar? gued that yesterday's market showed that a reaction was under way, but it ?was contend! d that the forces resisting a decline. In the absence of extremely unfavorable news would not likely' nl low prices to rec (do v iry tar. The :m Fcncc of decided tone to the early mar? ket was In part due t ? the expresst?n of ] a prominent bull leader that the mar? ket had a tired look, but the people did not Know what to do with their money, and If the market resisted a ?week <>r two one per cent. >money would be probable. The market open? ed rather Irregular, and such strength ns there was In it disappeared under professional pressure. There was an absence of support from large inter? ests and realizing set, in which gave | the bears encouragement for a vigo? rous demonstration, which, after a feeble rally, resulted in many stop loss orders being caught, It was said on the floor that heavy selling c irne from i ?Washington, and the rumor gained] currency that the ratification of tho peace treaty was in Jeopardy. The market fete the effects of the heavy reall/.in;: thai t."?ok place last week and this. The lowest prices of th,> d ly were shortly after noon. The Gl ingots were down from 1?* in St. Paul to In Burlington, the coalers from i'_- In New Jersey Central to 2'A In Reading first preferred.

In thej specialties the decline was even more pronouneed. ranging from about 2 points in Sugar and Tobacco and C in Now York Air Brake, Tin? declines were very general, and embraced almost everything of conse? quence?Lsrge ordera?a-pperwed n u-n '. the bear movement Oppenrod to have lost Its force and liquidation quickly ceased. The null lenders took hold nfl their various specialties, and helped tho recovery, which continued pracll. rally to close with only a momentary slight recession of profit t iking. Traders generally t 10k the long s.,l for a turn on the Idea that much ot the weak held stocks had been trans? ferred to stronger Interests.
