NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—After ft atrong
opening this morning, the inarHet de
clined under the Influence of profit
taking by the professionals. The big
plungers sold stocks freely and Har-
riman broker# also worked for lower
prices. The Morgan people seemed to
pe Inactive, but here and there evl-
dence.tvas given of accumulation.
The fact that more than $300,000,000
In bids came out for the new city bond
Issue oF $60,000,000 has stirred up the
Investment world ugaln. The brokers
are anxious to keep their markets ac
tive. There are about $50,000,000 of
other high-class securities pressing for
sale. The closing of factories and bad
railroad reports are making the profes
sionals very pessimistic. Political de
velopments of the next few days are
expected to turn the entire tide and
S ut the pessimists on the run. So con-
dent are the bullll of being able to
turn the tide that bankers Identified
with that party are advising their
friends to cover ihort contracts and to
take on a small line of stock.
The gambling element is very sarcas
tic and Is demanding a positive state
ment without ffri or but#. The bull
party does not hesitate to give positive
evidence of better times, making only
the usual exceptions of war, earthquake
or some frightful calamity that It Is
impossible for any one to foresee. The
ordinary calamities and the existing
conditions have been thoroughly con
sidered.
Cotton was slightly higher, wheat
was lower and the curb market was
firm.
