Hides, Tallow, Wool and Hops.
The tanners ray that present indications point
to a rpeedy termination of the strike, which
wlll.be a great easement to the market. Wet
salted Hides arc -weaker, but no lower. The
demand for dry Hides Is exceptionally good.
Horse Hides continue to sell very well, and
there is a good demand for Goat Skins. Tal
low continues In light supply, firm. and In de
mand.
Blocks of Wool consist of odds and ends,
and any increase In the demand would speedily
clean these ud. The market continue* very
firm, but quiet.
Tho situation in Hops . shows little change
Growers and buyers continue apart In their
views, and there, is not much going on at the
moment .The growers, as a rule, are firm
holders.

Xezi' York Stock Market.
NEW YORK. Jan. 13.— The stock market
mada a further reaction to-day,, but made some
lecovery during the last hour and clos:d Ir
regular. The heaviness of the market had no
better explanation than yesterday. Money ad
vanced Jrom I't per cent at the opening to
j per cent, but no difficulty was experienced
in getting it and little attention t>cemed to
be paid to the money Kituatlon by the opera
tors fn stocks. This was not true, however,
d the fortlun exchange market and the anx
iety felt !n regard to thct development was
Cue. of coun-e, to the probable effect on money.
Ktor'ing was in quite strong demand to-day,
in *pite of ye^terdaj*'*: heavy engagement 01'
grain for export and good hopes of a contin
uance of this outgo. London's operations in
stocks here were not en a large scale and did
not influence exchange. It Is believed that
some bills are about maturing that represent
borrowings abroad for New York account dur
ing the money stringency here last month.
There is a likelihood also that there is fome
accumulation of exchange to provide, payment
for French rentes, for which there is said to
be S'lrr.e present demand on account of the
American Insurance companies. The effect in
Berlin yesterday of the foreshadowing of a
German loan was duplicated in London to-day
by the expectation of an early announcement
of a Transvaal loan. These Government oper
ations are probably ¦ the true explanation of
the hardening of. foreign money rates, and It
is believed that our obligations to foreign
money - centers are, etlll sufficient to permit
them to draw gold from us In cass of need.
This prospect would have a natural -tendency
to check wholesale commitment* In specula
tion for a rl»e In New York. But yesterday's
disappointing response from the general pub
lic to last week's considerable and Inviting
rise served to admonltih the managers of : the
advance that little was to b* hoped-for yet
from the public in the way of absorbing' se
curities which still remain In the ' hands ot
syndicates and promoters. Renewed strength
of the Erie and St. Paul this morning and vig
orous support of Reading seemed to be de-

Tlic Chicago market was steady, but wires
reported buying orders not as plentiful as they

some sections. Pasturage is plentiful. Orange

SUMMARY OF THE MARKETS.
cloned to reassure speculative sentiment, but
jyhen it was perceived that advantage vu
feeing taken of this sustaining Influence to
effect Jarjre selling of Rock Island, the selling
was renewed throughout the list and there
was no important recovery until the last hour,
when Manhattan wan lifted two points over
last night and Krie was run up again to the
top level or the morning. Contributing causes
to the reaction were the steps taken In Con
gress to investigate the coal supply, fears of
damage to earning* of railroads by snow
blockades and broad intimations that no im
mediate dividends are to be expected en Col
