its belief that the government auld issue 510000o000 of four per cent I Vonds to provide for the treasury specie ixserve The announcement followed that J P Morgan Co were forming a syndicate syn-dicate to subscribe for this amount with T TP further privilege or obligation as it may tie regarded to take a supplementary supplement-ary issue of a like sum I also trdn tirpd that the syndicate ha been large Ij over subscribed that foreign interests 1 ae taken part in the operation to an LBlcnown amount and that banks and ifiunions throughout the country as T 1 as in this city have shown marked tidiness to surrender their gold holdings l jr a share in the new bonds These de iclopments have checked the depressing Iruiuonces that affected the stock marKet and caused a very strong undertone to master itself I he street is fully aware of the reason p IT the delay in making public announce ment of the bond issue I Is fully ap lifosatod that the senate must b ali al-i rntd an opportunity to act upon the bond bill which passed the house of rep xsentatives last week There seems to rntates IP no doubt that the senate committee v inch is dominated by the silver men will t uncart the bill into a free silver coinage measure The report of the committee i is concluded will be signal for action by IP administration in regard to issuing 1hl hands and thismay carry the opera tion over till next week At the same tame there is no evidence that the Morgan tlml syndicate has made a definite contract with The treasury and the price at which the bonds will be taken is also unknown I tendon has not been an important I or in this market The unfavorable fcelinc toward American securities caused l lng I J v the Venezuela incident has become there less pronounced but leading

quiet in trade circles at a time when stock taking and preparing samples for commercial travelers trav-elers are taking the attention of jobbers job-bers and commission houses A slackening activity In some important import-ant manufacturing lines is also noticeable notice-able Telegrams from mercantile centers report slow orders the exception being at i a few points in southern states Jobbers in leading lines at many centers are conn dent as to the outlook for trade in the near future although in instances fears are expressed of an unfavorable effect due to inability io secure necessary leg

New York Jan 3The stock market displayed a sagging tendency in prices during the greater part of today and the speculative movement was sluggish The suspense is growing acute in financial circles in regard to the proposed bond issue a the matter had been expected to h closed by this time The same condition applies to almost all other branches of Wall street business which are rendered unsettled by the protracted delay on a question of such decided interest In-terest Conflicting reports of exports of gold from this country uncertainty regarding regard-ing the probable of the te course money and commercial markets and the liquidation in American securities in London due to the Transvaal imbroglio and other causes all contribute to the disquiet of local dealers and investors Foreign cables came lower previous to the opening here and the arbitrage operations for London account were for sales A reported increase in-crease in the premium in gold as a commodity com-modity to Hi per cent bid

part of the session finally got stronger and sold up fully ie The indifferent cables and the continued uncertainty of a favorable solution of the financial problems now before the country were the early weak influences But there was some good god buying by prominent houses and the cold weather caused some fear for the growing wheat In localities where Jt was not fully protected by snow but such areas i is said are quite limited The receipts are still running light everywhere and the exports from the seaboard yesterday were over 500000 bushels in wheat and flour making over 1800000 bushels so
