Xew York Stock Slarket
NEW TORK. Feb. 4.— There was a marked
contraction in the volume of stocks today and
the feverish tone of the recent market was
largely eliminated. Fluctuations became narrow
and tbe movement was increasingly sluggish. De
ductions suggested by the conditions are. a sub
sidence of the pressure of liquidation of a forced
kind, a disposition to support prices and protect
the market from excessive declines on the part
of the powerful banking interests, the intimida
tion of tbe bears in consequence and the cessation
of their fierce raiding tactics against values. A
. demand was forthcoming when prices dipped, Dut
It was totally withdrawn when prices advanced
"st all. There was * slightly firmer tone to call
' loans early in the day. but rates receded later.
Additional gold was secured in London for New
I'ork sccooat, but the New York demand did
»ot make any euch sweeping acquisition ss has
been dreaded by the London market. Ine Baak
of England continues to secure gold and its po
sition is growing very strong. The ability or
the bank to make its 6 per cent rate effective
In the market has been dependent on fiscal op
erations of the English and Japanese Govern- ,
tnents, which took money irom tbe market and
placed it in the bank deposits. It is probable,
therefore, that a further movement of gold from
Jxradon to New York will proceed without
eerioa* nnsettlement of foreign money markets.
Foreign banking authorities agree thafa lrage
redaction of floating Indebtedness by New lork
to them has been effected since the turn of the '
rear Tbe continued advantage of the -position
enjoyed by New York in the International ex
changes is interpreted as significant of further
obligations to this country on commercial ac
count. It is expected that the foreign attitude
toward any demand for gold, will be altered with
the growth of the perception that the gold
movement does uot represent a heavy extension
of credits to American bankers. Railroad traffic
reports contained reference to the difficulties
from etorm blockades, but offered nothing to
enow a cessation of traffic offerings, net earo
" lor* for December further reported showing the
peaeril tendency of operating expenses t» over
' take the growth of gross earnings and bo to im
pair the net return. The 6luggish movements in
••the ceneral market were largely In sympathy
with wider movements to a few 6peclal 6tocks.
The easy closing was affected by the weakening
° Bonds were irregular. Total sales (par value),
H.4«5,000.
L'nlted States bonds were enchanged on call.
