MARKETS OF THE CITY, THE COUNTRY AND THE WORLD COnONgg?PROWC[gSmiE MAY LOOK FOR A RECOVERY SOON Present Depression In Stock Market Will Be of Short Duration. NEW YORK, 0. —The weekly finan cial review of the banking house of Henry Clews & Co. says: Circumstances combined to further unset tle the stock market during the past In the first place it was very evident that the big holders of securities and prominent banking interests had withdrawn tljeir sup port from the market. This left prices at the merey of every passing unfavorable current. The suspension of a prominent bond house spread unnecessary lack of confidence.. The bear party was in the ascendant, and en couraged by recent sneesses used every pos sible argument to depress values as far as poasible. The general situation remains fundamen tally sound. It is doubtful if any very inju rious legislation will be passed during the present session of congress. The issues there are so many and so complex as to frustrate precipitate action. President Taft’s policies are not likely to go through without much resistance and considerable modification. When it comes to the technical position of the stork market, that, too, is generally sound. Securities, as a rule, are now well under control, and there are fewer weak speculative accounts in the market than us ual» Moreover, stocks the last few days havo drifted into stronger hands, and the Indi cations are that the market leaders are qui etly absorbing good securities whenever of fered at a sacrifice. Added to this there has been a fair investment demand for small lots of the better grade stocks, which will soon be found to have strengthened the foun dation of the market. So far as the condition of general busi ness Is concerned the agitation against high prices is unquestionably having its effect. The outbursts of popular clamor is being felt by the politicians, and is not likely to pass away without having some effect upon fn* ture legislation, especially concerning tariff and trusts. In some instances commodity prices have already yielded; and in ihe pub lic mind the spirit of economy is taking the place of the spirit of extravagance which has ruled for so many mouths. Retailers ar?* Already feeling this new tendency in a marked degree and are consequently buying with much more caution than for many months past. This hesitancy on the part of retailers is naturally reflected in the whole sale markets, and in both the textile and grocery trades there is a spirit, of conserva limn which is in marked contrast with the feeling of a month ago. This is not harm ful. end will ultimately prove beneficial. easier condition prevails in the money market. Funds are generally returning from the interior quite freely, and the liquida tion of ihe last few weeks has tended to I* 1 * demands for accommodation. The fall in securities has induced bankers to scrutinize collateral a little more closely, hut the monetary situation as a whole i 8 * satis factory. The banks have been strengthened by liquidation and will be the better pre pared for resumption of business activity in x bonds the demand continues in different, the sales in Januarv showing a shrinkage compared with a year ago. Some pending issues are still held up waiting a batter market: investors showing a prefer ence for stocks which at current prices give much better-.returns than bonds. Very soon there will be larger demands upon the money market through the borrowings of various governments. A Panama bond issue must soon be forthcoming, especially as govern ment revenues continue tn fall below expen ditures, and Germany will also soon he out with a large Ioan. But there are do serious demands upon the money market in sight and fair but not high rates of interest seem probable until the crop demands again as sert themselves. Europe is now a fair buyer of the better grade of securities, although professing to l»e somewhat disturbed by recent faffures in this market. Reeurftieg have now had a heavy shrinkage, fully discounting nil known drawbacks, and as soon as the readjustment now in progress is completed we may look for a substantial recovery from present de pression.

Influenced against by th© weakness of tue New York stock market, trading on the l>oanl was slow for the first hour w * th • tendency downward.

Ths local yards for the first of the week siarted off in good shape with a livestock offering df 229 head of cattle and five hugs. While the swine element seems to be mate riaOy lacking through the lower country, tho region still has some suitable butchers' sup ply to mark*il. Reganlleas of the fact that a general boy cott is being inaugurated against the con sumption of meat, the demand for cattle on the markets is active. Twenty-eight thousand head received yesterday at the northern yards failed to meet the demand, resulting in a sharp advance of 10 to 15 cents per hundredweight. A new top price was also es taUi-hed last week on the St. Louis market for Texas grass fed beef. Therefore, what ever is the cause of high priced dressed meats, the man who owns fat cattle ran con tinue to smile over a breakfast of coffee and beefsteak. January on the local market was featured bv the scarcity of supplies, says the Fort XVorth Live Stock Reporter. Receipts of stock ■for the month were, in round numbers, as follows: Cattle. 50.900. ralves 16,700, hogs 76.400, shoep 5650, horses and mules 8200. This exhibits a decrease as compared with the opening month of last year of 27.159 cattle ano 15.830 hegs. An increase of 5298 calves. 663 sheep and 879 horsea and mules is shown. These figures indicate that those who are claiming a great sho ri ace in cattle and hogs are true in their estimates. Ksperially is this noted when it is said that quite a string of Mexican cattle is included in the receipts for the past month. During ihe last two weeks of the month shipmenta fell off to ve~v small proportions, with regular Satur day runs arriving for the first days of the week. Calves show a small gain over the eorre sponding month last year, but at that ship ment ►have l»een very light, and fall behind those of 3907. Ebeep have also made a gain over January a year ago. but this increase counts for nought, for practically everything received has beeA sent direct to packers. Horses and mules made a nice gain, this be ing attributed to the heavy demand for all classes. J. B. Pumphrey of Taylor, but a ranch man of both Stonewall and McCulloch coun ties. is spending a few days in the city vis iting his brother, R. B. Pumphrey, at the Cattlemen's Exchange. Speaking of his ranche«. Mr. Pumphrey said: “Grass is fine in McCulloch eounty and the cattle are wintering fine. The re cent rains have helped the winter grass and weeds materially, affording an abundance ©f feed for all cattle upon the land. On the upper reach in Stonewall county the grass ther* has not been so good, but this draw back baa been fully met in the feed which is grown for the stock on land under cnlti* ration. I have not lost a single head from my cattle during the winter, which is quite unusual even in the very best years.’’ When inquiry was made regarding the ru mor that the state and country was lacking on cattle supply. Mr. Pumphrey said the state was not producing one-tenth of the meat that it did a few years ago. “Th*' ranches have all been cut up into farms and now a few Jersey cows take the place of the great herds formerly seen on th* same grounds.
