Xew York, t'eb 2J The market opened
BrKUla,r ii nd excited in places with
heavy buying orders In Ameilcan Btetl

Coal stocks which resulted In sharp ml
atice In them. London houses wero
lnrco buyers of their mcclnltles, notably
Union Tactile und Atchison. Commission
houses had a fair amount of orders but
there was somo liquidation tnrnugnoiu
the list. The market held btrons and Him
thniUKhout tho curl p.ut uf tho day but
mound ISO p. m. a soiling moximont do
Mlopcd which droppid this from 1 to 3
per cent. The market looks oer bought
to us and we should not be a bit surprised
to see somewhat lower prices. Tho de
cline was heaviest today In tho stocks
which hnvo shown most material ad
vances. We have renson to believe that
several large Interests havo liquidated
on tho last advance and nie willing to sen
the market run off somewhat. While wo
are not bearish we think tempotarlly at
Iiast. purchases should only bo made on
weak snot Tho conditions of money aro
coming In evidence eveiy d.iv and it Is
Just posslblo some liquidation Is caused by
tho fact that loans are being called by the
banks. Tho g rations of Tobacco nnd
Sugar have vvo.ikincd the maiket per
ceptibly. Shorts have been forced to
coer these b uniovlng buying power
which prtvlouslv elstid At tho tamo
time the hiv'o frljhtened outsiders Into
taking profits which they picvlously
would nut have done Such manipulation
as has taken place In the market Is nl
wnvs detrimental to best Interests and for
that reason we ore Inclined to bo conser
vative on It Steel nnd Wire which wo
havo bien persistently bullish on was
very strong and active throughout tho
