MARKET REDUCED
DEALINGS CONTRACTED AND
FLUCTUATIONS NARROW
MOVEMENT OF PRICES UPWARD.
FRENCH FLOOD A FACTOR
Hopeful Views Expressed In Public

Cheer
[Associated Press]
NEW YORK, Jan- 28.—The fever
which baa kept the stock market dis
turbed tliis week nas reduced today.
Dealings contracted and the fluctua
tions narrowed. These are tho ustinl
symptoms of the re-establishment of
normal conditions after a period ot
ttlement and v,ere welcomed for
that n ason.
The price movement was upward, out
the recovery brought decrease of de
mand, followed by some reaction. The
arrr-st of yesterday's decline disclosed
the approximate average of prices at
Which demand developed sufficient to
absorb the offerings. There was some
wed consideration today of the
probable 1 Beet on the demand for
Ital of the financial losses Involved
in the French floods disaster. The
destruction of capital ts similar in
kind, though not in degree,* as that
by the San Francisco calamity,
and international bankers admit the
likelihood of some effect on the ex
-1 banges in the process of repair of the
damage.
The large credit balance of the
French nation with the world at large
gives it the ability to call home credits
at need. Its own home resources are
*■« abundant at the fame time that the
process Is expected to be gradual and
without disturbing effect.
The hopeful views expressed In pub
lic utterances of J. J. Hill and William
Kockefeller were an influence toward
the more cheerful feeling on the stock
exchange. Account began to be taken
of the Improbability that the supreme
I would have its decision In the
Amerli ■ tobacco cases ready for hand-
Ing down "H Monday, from which time
a three weeks' adjournment of the
court is intended.
The professionalism Into which the
market was falling was indicated by
Pennsylvania's reaction in face of the
ral rise, that stock having served
sustaining force yesterday against
weakness. The coppers, too, sufl
thing from the limits of the steps
taken toward the merger to the lines
of ownership already common to the
■epi rati properties affected.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales,
par values, ?2,979.000.
I'nitrti states bonds were unchanged
on call.

DUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW
NEW YORK, Jan. II. —H. O. Dun .v Com
jinny* weekly review of trade tomorrow
will »ay:
MtaHured by such tests as bank clearings
and railroad earnings, there la no visible
diminution In the volume of^industrlal and
mercantile transactions; and yet. with such
happenings as the English elections, the
Paris flood, the agitation over high prices,
anil the rather violent break in tin; New
York stock market, it would be strango,
indeed, if the various trades did nut, In
some degree, feel the effect of these dis
turbances. Then weather conditions have
been, in places, unfavorable to distribution.
Therefore the situation presents an Irreg
ular appearance, due to an uneven trade
development. This Irregularity wan dis
played to some extent.ln the Iron and steel
trade, although an event of the week was
the declaration of an extra dividend by
the principal producer. The decline In se
•cuiity prices, the recent fall In cotton and
the tendency to lower value* for some
foodstuffs are likely to make the situation
more wholesome, however disturbing tom-
porarlly.
Dry goods Jobbing reports an Improve
ment In house trade.
lousiness booked on men's wear staples
and semi-staples by the largest producer
for fall goods has been large and advances
of ms per yard In some numbers were
announced.
Dress goods trade Is moderate, although
the large corporations have booked good
fall orders.
Wholesale dealers in shoes are placing
Initial fall contracts for later delivery with
New Kngland producers;- also • some fair
fized supplementary spring contracts. Many
manufacturers now have a satisfactory vol
ume of reserve orders booked and prospects
for th» N immediate future are promising.
All varieties of . domestic hide* continue
weak.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2S.—Wheat prices have cov
ered a range of about %c. from Me below to
%c abovß yesterday's close for May delivery.
Trade has been of small volume outside cf
professional speculative channels, where there
has been considerable activity at times. North
west has suld wheat on the swells, and \\ In
nipeg has dragged all day. Sentiment was
bullish most of the morning, but much of this
wore off as the day advanced. Firmer cables
and stiff priors current for cash wheat, along
with a reported large trade In flour were the
effective early Influences. Some strength also
came from the London cable reporting that
Argentine shippers had repurchased most of j
original sales and were ottering no more
wheat even at the lower equality and weights.
Minneapolis developed a very weak tone In
last half hour, which encouraged sellers here.
After the market got established under 11.11.■
some of the local bulls sold freely because th«
influential buying of the day by elevator In
terest and others did not advance prices fur-
The corn market made a brief show of weak
ness at the outset, then Quickly rallied and
ranged higher," reacting later, after which It
turned off from the top. As in wheat, there
was considerable long stuff on the market on
the swells. Outside longs were the principal
sellers. Contradictory reports of the market-
Inn at country stations down state were re
ceived today. Soma claimed farmers had
stopped selling and had already delivered
previous sales. Cithers claimed that del v
eries were still large. South Dakota and Min
nesota corn was again sold her.) freely by
Minneapolis ami Sioux City. Only the high
moisture test on corn here has prevented a
little export business today.
Oats has followed corn. There was moment
ary easiness and considerable selling pressure
early, then a sharp rally with other grains,
and on covering by shorts, and later a reac
tion to lowest prices of the day.
Provisions ranged firmer after an easy start.
A western packer bought considerable product,
while the soiling was limited and principally
by longs, who bought earlier In the week.

NEW YORK COTTON
Special service to The Herald by J. C, Wil
son, 212 West Fifth street, Los Angeles,
NKW YORK, Jan. 28.— Trading In cotton to
day was on a very limited scale, and tha
price changes covered a very small range.
First prices were at a very small decline from
yesterday's finals. What realizing there was
throughout the day was well taken,' and In the
afternoon a mild rally carried prices up so
that the finals showed some improvement for
the day. All this week the contract market
has shown more and more Its liquidated state,
but rather a general absence of interest, all
of which is natural after the recent violent
fluctuations.

BRADSTREET'S REVIEW
NEW YORK, Jan. 23.—Bradstreet's tomorrow
will say:
Cross currents In demand render general
characterization difficult. Wholesale and Job
bing trade in spring roods tends to expand,
travelers on the road are sendinir in better
orders, and the outlook for the future In those
lines Is optimistic.
Retail trade, following the activity engen
dered by January clearance, Miles, Is quieter,
pending the further advance of the winter sea
son. Filling In orders from retailers to job
perl ore moderate. Manuturturiiie industry Is
very busily employed, with large orders ahead.
There are some evidences that a spirit - of
conservatism Is being engendered by the breaks
in securities and cotton, the talk of govern
ment prosecutions of alleged unlawful combin
ations, and the widespread revolt against high
food prices. Evidences of this are found In
the hesitation reached In some branches of the
Iron trade, and reflection of the last mentioned
development >• had In ■ very general reduction
of price* of live stock, meats, eggs, butter and
kindred products-
Business failures in the United States for
the week ending with January 27 were 295,
against 275 last week, 311 in the like week of
11H>». Ml In IMS, 211 In 1907 and 228 In 1906. .
Business failures In Canada number 43, which
compares with 40 for last week and 42 for the
corresponding week last year.
Wheat, Including flour, exports from the
United States and Canada for the week ending
January 27 aggregate 8,118,178 bushels, •£*■»•'
2 034,740 last week and 3,044.833 this week last
For the thirty weeks ending January •*;
