New York, Jan. 27. Conforming to
yesterday a course today's stock market
disregarded the further break in foreign
exchange and hiih money rates and
continued its upward or recovery move
ment. The chief factor was the scant
supply of stocks, reflecting the acutely
oversold conditions which were a na
tural result of the liquidation that had
ucvu in progress lor over two months,
coupled with the three weeks of almost
continuous hammering by the bear contingent.
Tho covering movement, while the
most important factor in elevating
prices, was by no means extensive, nor
was the demand apparently as urgent as
noted yesterday. This, however, would
not imply the complete rounding up
oi mo snort interest, but rather reflected
the indisposition on the part of tho
constructive leaders to force the cover
ing movement.
It is reasonably certain, if any con
centrated drive was made against the
over-extended bear account prices would
be sent soaring and bring about a fresh
outburst of speculative enthusiasm,
which, because of the money market
conditions, is furtherest from the hopes
of the bull leaders.
Perhaps the most significant feature
of the day was the appreciable increase
in buying orders from many outside
points. The quarters from which many
of these were received would seem
ingly indicate the powers-to-be were
keeping in close touch with the market
situation. It also showed that the
public which held aloof for weeks were
disposed to nibble.
In many respects the morning move
ments were almost a eomplet repeti
tion of yesterday's program, except the
advances were not quite so pronounced.
There was the same uncertain ten
dencies manifested at the opening,
which this morning wero due largely
to further demoralization in foreign ex
change, all tho leading remittances
falling to new low records.
This collapse which later extended
to the Scandinavian centers, however,
was ignored in that technical conditions
continued to exert greater influence
than outside news or developments.
The market oulcklr steadied within
the first hour on the renewed cover
ing movement. Copper, food nnd chem
ical issues wero added to the list of
moderately strong stocks, but motors,
oils and the steels, tho latter includ
ing several equipments, continued to
lead the advance.
United States Steel, contrary to ex
pectations, moved within the narrowest
limits, giving co intimation of the char
acter of the statement of earnings for
the final quarter of 1010, and for the
year of 1010, which is to be issued
after the close of the market today.
There was the familiar slowing down
around midday, after the renewal call
rate had been fixed at 8 per cent,
against 7 per cent yesterday.
Trading continued very dull during
the early afternoon, but prices mounted
steadily. The movement continued to
center in high-priced industrials and
specialties at extreme advances of 2 to
14 points. Ralls were the only issues
to make no appreciable progress.
Shippings were included among the
higher quotations recorded in the last
hour, the market again disregarding the
further break in exchange.

New York. Jan. 27. The New York
Evening Sun's closing financial review
toaay says:
The stock market was strong today,
but trading continued so restricted that
it was difficult to draw definite de
ductions from current price movements
as to the probable course in the near
future. The street appeared to be about
evenly divided between bullish and bear
ish opinion; the one citing the tech
nical position within the market, that is
to say. the large short interest and the
limited offerings made in response to
bids of a more or less ureencv. nnd the
f other pointing resignedly to the dubious
outlook lor money.
A good deal may be said for both,
enough indeed to suggest to an impartial
observer of market conditions that the
seal s may be about evenly divided for
a considerable time to come.
However, this may be the shorts at
the moment have none too much confi
dence in the security of their position
and this feeling was not materially
allayed by obstacles encountered when
it came to covering.
The situation in Washington f-ecms
bad from every angle whether it con
cerns the peace treaty or the railroad
matter, although the latter has appear
ed a bit brighter than last week, but it
works both ways so far as influence
marketwise is concerned.
The bears have gone a long way in
discounting the worst that may be fore

Tobacco Sales Go to Purchase

ISSUE FINDS GOOD MARKET
New York, Jan. 27. An important
feature in the trading on the Broad
Street Curb today was the development
in British American Tobacco, which
has been used for over a week past as
a means of steadying the sterling ex
change. Sales of that stock reached more than
10,000 shares in the first few davs, the
proceeds all being used to buy demand
sterling, similar to the use made of the
proceeds of sales of Canadian Pacific
on the exchange.
That this stock found a good murkct
and in spite of this supply was regarded
as significant of a strong and broad
underlying demand.
General Asphalt moved up from
HSVj to 120. Simms Petroleum was in
good demand, advancing to 55.
New York Shipbuilding was another
strong feature, advancing from 44 to
47. Submarine Boat was traded in ut
1B to 16. Carib Syndicate sold at 45
to 46. Montgomery-Ward yielded from
38 to 38. Marconi sold at iiy, to 0.

Fairly heavy exports and unfavorable
reports from the southwest, regarding

parations, tended to restrict pressure,
The continuance of wire trouble was
reflected in an unusually small com

Part of the demand was inttuencsd

Dealings in oats were without much

slight. The market eased earlv under
pressure from local and eastern' houses.
Later, eastern longs furnished Mipport
and forced some covering by bliorts.
Exporters refused to offer oats for
prompt loading, owing to difficulty in
getting the grain tft the seaboard on
account of railroad troubles.
