Kow Tork, February sf*.?Tho stock
?tiarkct to-day wns not chanired easen
.ially from thc dull nnd drlftlng mnr
ltcls of last wook. Tho rlso ln pilces
was tho coniploment of thc fall on
?aturday. whlch wns h.ised upon tho
hogalblllty that lho Supreme Court
would hand down a declsion to-day
In tho American Tobacco case. Ilic
cieaxing up of this uncertalnty witli
tho dlsposltlon of tho caso wlll be
?tvelcoinctl all thrniiKh thc financial
world. , .
Varlous liHppenln_s wcrc passed ln
revlew nnd canvassed to-day tor their
posslblo hcnrlnd on values wlth the
hope Of lnduclnc- some niovcmcnl of
prli rs. Th- market remalned, however.
almost wholly In professlonal hands.
Somo of thc bear covering- of porta
may hnvo <bcon due to modoratlon of
tho' strain ln the riilladelphla sltua?
tlon. 'J'ho labor sltiiallon thcrc ls
viewed more for Its sympatlictlo. in?
fluenco between tho railroad and va?
rlous branches than for its own im?
portance.
The crops also came in for considora?
tlon. and thc strenctli of tho whent
market i^ave forco to tlic further re?
ports of weather damafrc to ihe win?
ter wheat crop. Thcrc. was nothing de
cisivo enoufrh from thc Iron and stoel
trade to shape sneculatlve opinlon
delinltely, but sentiment in that in?
dustry was porccptlbly more cheerful
than earller In the month, and thls
was a factor in tho firmer undcrtone
of thc sto.-k market
Tho featuro in tho money and ex?
chango mnrket was tho furthor nd
vajico in the forolprn exchange rates
beforo the demand for remlttanco for
the payment of remalnlngr Qbligatlons
ln London. Timo loans wero called
