Tne stock market continued to show great
strength to-day, and reversed the temper of
yesterday’s market completely, while there was
an increased volume of business, though t ;e
aggregate is still small. Buying today was ap
parently from Vanderbilt and Gould sources;
but there were rumors of pools in several
stocks, among which St. Paul and Lake Shore
were conspicuous, and both made handsome
advance* to-day. the latter being helped ma
terially by a report of its earnings for the

fourth week in January. The other specially
strong stocks to-day were Lackawanna. Wheel
ing and Lake Erie, and Pacific Mai in the gen
eral list; wmle among the specialties there
were aim- large gains made. New Jersey Cen
tral. Delaware an 1 Hudson. Eus >n General
Electric and Great Northern preferred being
especially prominent. The market opened with
a firm tone, but remained dull, except fur those
slocks which had tne advantage of the clique
support but a stronger tone was soon de
veloped, and late in the day the upward move
ment became most pronounced all through the
list. Outside of SL Paul and Lead trust, how
ever, there were not at a.iy time any real
act ivity. The long expect-d declaration of a
dividend in the Lead trust came to-day, and
was a great disappoint nient Lo many, who have
been expecting one of 1 per cent. whereas the
dividend wai only half of l percent. Upon
this there was heavy selling by disappointed
speculators, and this neutralized the buying
which was indulged in by those who have been
waitiug for th • dividend or othe ■ good nows
before purchas ng. The stock rose only a small
fraction in the early trading, but lost all im
provement lat r in the day with something in
addition. Other industrials were aff cted to a
large extent, and the material advances made
in Sui;ar stock* in the forenoon were afterward
entirely lost. Market showed increased
strength as the day wore along outside of its
industrials, and while there was as usual some
realizing in the last hour upon advances scored,
there was no sotback, aid the close, while
quiet, was strong at the best fig ires of the day.
Tue list is almost invariably higher. The sales
aggregated 200,000 shares listed and 55,000
shares of unlisted.

Manchester, Feb. 4.—The Guardian's com
mercial article says: ‘‘The market is exceed
tngly fiat. Few departments did an average
Tuesday’s business. The causes of the Aatness
give rise to much discussion, and are attributed
to the financial disturbances which occurred in
November and to Auctuations in Eastern ex
changes, wuich have practically stopped the
receipts of important orders. Serious financial
disturbances on the Plate river have interfered
with the Argentine inquiry. The Chilean revo
lution lias checked the trade for that country.
Tiiiero is a quiet but steady demand from other
places, though the demand is affected by dull
ness. The tendeucy is often in favor of buyers.
T..ere is little business in yarn. There are few
important export order*. .Many manufacturers
of cloth hold aud some are receiving orders
sufficient to employ their looms for some time.
Others are mucu In want of orders. The stop
page of looms is increasing. There is poor
Eastern demand. Best printers are fairly
steady. Lower grades are neglected. Prices
are irregular.”

The Sun’s cotton review says: “Futures
were firmer, closing quiet and steady. The
market was a stronger one, but somewhat
feebly so; that is, a higher ran e of prices was
not attended by any considerably activity in
dealings. A slight early advance followed a
better report from Liverpool, but it was no bull
movement; it was merely a covering of shorts
by the bears, and proved that the bears were
not much frightened, or that there was any
considcrab.e short interest. After the last call
there was some fresh buying on smaller port
receipts, which were below the early estimates.
The demand, such as it was, was not freely
met. and required but little buying to stiffen
prices.”

Chicago, Feb. 4.—The cold weather and easier
cables caused, at the opening, a eneral desire
to sell at the prices ruling at the clo* of the
market yesterday. The bulk of the tradin’
was done at 99*c®$l 00. An attempt of some
of the local shor.s to cover their previous gales
was perceived by the local scalpers and they
bid the price up. There was a quick advance to
$1 00f4, * reaction to $1 00)4 and these fluctua
tions were followed by a bulge, and $1 01* was
Said before the excited traders atop(>ed to draw
reath. The price was around $1 00*®1 00)4
when a dispatch from San Francisco reported
food general rains in California and Oregon.
hese rains extinguished the bullish conflagra
tion. then raging in the wheat pit, and the ad
vance was all wiped out and May wheat so and
down to 99*c and closed at 99*c, or *0 lower
than it rested yesterday. Light receipts were
sufficient in their influence to keep corn from
declining. The opening price for May was
53)4c, and there was a sale at 64c. The lowest
price Was 53*0 and the closing at MVjc. Oats
opened dull and continued so until the bulge In
wti at, when the minor cereals showed a slight
advance. Trading was only fair, however, at a
range of ?4c The provision market was weak
at the start, and May pork was soon selling at
$lO 09*, though $lO 10 was paid at the opening
