JTEW YORK STOCK MARKET. Operations Were Very Light and Xet CUanses Small. NEW YORK, Jan. 16 Professioaai operations in stocks fell away considerably today, and, as there Is no other interest in the market, the dealings made further progress toward a feel ing of stagnation. There was slight speculation in Sugar, Tobacco and the local tractions, but these reached little more than "swapping Jackknl03" among the board-room traders, as may be Judged from the day's small net changes. These speoulatH e f a orttes are higher on the daj', after t arious fluctuations. There is no better explanation of their having gone up than that they went down, yesterday. There was evidence of a desire on the part of shorts to coer in Tobacco, which pulled it up sharply In the late dealings, and the rest of the market with It. It was emphatically a waiting market, and was by no means clear what it was waiting for. The fact that the dullness was shared by the other great speculate e centers of the world gives point to the supposition that the develop ment of conditions In South Africa is awaited. Money conditions continue to make progress toward greater ease all over the -world without the slightest cttect oa speculation. A period of stagnation after so drastic liquidation as that of lest month Is by no means unique or ab normal, without counting the South African situation. It is ery generally bailee ed a Brit ish success there would cause a sharp rally in prices, if for no other reason than from the covering made by the bears who ha e sold the market in the spirit of skepticism over any early change in the -situation. It would "be neceosary to go back two years to the time of uncertainty preceding our war with Spain to find, a parallel .for the absolute listi FINANCIAL NEWS lessness or apparent waiting which are the characteristics of the current stock market. Rates for time money were shaded Delow 5 per cent on choice collateral, under the Influence of the large accumulation of reserves which are coming into New York banks. Dealings In bonds were on a larger scale than those la stocks, and prices were more firmly held. Occasional large Individual trans actions reflect the continued flow of cash Into axed Investments. Total sales, $1,565,000. United States 3s advanced per cent, and the old 4s per cent In the bid price. BONDS. U. S. 2s. reg 102WGen. Electric Bs....ll7 oo as, reg ivs do 3s, coupon.. ..1105! N. Y.

Ularlcets Are Stagnant, Pending tlie Receipt of "War News. NEW YORK, Jan. 16 The Commercial Ad vertiser's London financial cablegram says: The markets here wero Idle and featureless, pending the breaking of General Bullet's mys terious silence. The tone w as firm. Americans "were stagnant, and the slightest disposition to. buy in them told in prices, owing to the scarcity of stock. An illustration was afforded by the spurt of of a point In Norfolk & Western preferred on th purchase of a few hundned shares. The Indian currency commis sion "ear-marked" today 50,000 -gold, and there was some demand In the open market from India for bullion, but no supplies are in sight I think Indian exchange banks will withdraw bullion tomorrow, probably 50,000 during the week, and more amount doubtful afterward. Money and bills were In very slight demand. Paris checque was 25.20, Berlin 20 61. Silver sellers are holding off for more. The Bank ot Netherlands has reduced its minimum dis count rate from 5 to 4 per cent, and the Bank of Bombay has raised Its rate from 8 to fl per cent Copper fortnightly statistics show stocks down 500 tons,' and supplies 582.

The slump of yesterday received new Impetus today from the Increase of the -visible of 4,040,000 bushels, A moderate Increase would have occasioned little agitation, but for -the magnitude of the week's gain an nounced by Bradstreet'e about noon, and the bomb-like effect In shattering "bull expectations. The market had opened rather heavy. In sym pathy with the Liverpool decline, May c under yesterday, at 6CG6c New York, for eigners and a few locals had sold moderately, and some wheat had come out on stop-loss orders. These offerings had been well ufiten, and at the decline the market steadied and advanced, possibly In sj mpathy with corn. May had touched 66c Business up, to noon had been quiet Then came the explosion from Bradstreet's. Holders joined the crowd pf sell ero, adding concession to concession to rid themselves cf an article, the supply of which was evidently so much, greater than the de mand. The close was at the bottom. May 1 lc under yesterday, at 6365c It was ex plained that the unexpected magnitude of the Increase in the visible was due to a correction of Odessa stocks. Corn was steady throughout the session, and the closa, in view of the wheat break, fairly I firm. May closed & shade over -yesterday, .at 33H33c Oats dragged, but were fairly steady, with corn.

United Presbyterian. Professor Smith, foe many years super intendent of the city schoqls of Burlington, la,, related to Ihe writer a. story rabout Lincoln which , he asserted iaa never be fore been printed, an all who knew that good man will testify to his moral Inca pacity for coining such a story. His state ment to the writer was that he and Pro fessor Newton Bateman, of Oalesburg, 111., were with the speakers on the plat form as members of the republican central committee, or. as a subcommittee to ac company Mr. Littcom on' this "occasion, The Incident occurred at one' of the joint Iheetings between Stephen A. Douglas and Mr. XJncoln, during the memorable sen atorial campaign of 1S59. The two gentlemen 'referred to, Mf. I Douglas, and many other persons of dis tinction were yith the speaker on the platform. Douglas opened the debate wtlh a speech of an hour and a hal He seenied to be all inspired by the occasion, the Im mediate presence of his wife and the large and appreciative audience, to surpass him self. His argument and oratory were con vincing and overpowering. His title to the cognomen, "Little Giant," given him by his friends, was fully demonstrated by "hist eloquent performance. As point after polht was made amid the applause of his friends and admirers, they "grew more and more confident and elated, f while Lincoln's friends were correspond ingly discouraged and' depressed. So elo quent and convincing was his address that Professor Smith leaned over and whispered to his friend and colleague, Professor Bateman: "Bateman, we are licked this time. Lincoln can never answer this ad dress; the crowd is so carried away with Douglas that it will be Impossible for Lin coln to get a hearing," "Walt and gee," was the reply of Bateman. "Purlng the delivery of his qpponent's address, Mr. Lincoln sat with legs crossed, head bDwed, eyes partially closed apd countenance as expressionless as parch ment. When Douglas had concluded his address and taken his seat, Mr. Lincoln remained seated, allowing the friends of Douglas to cheer and shout to their heart's content. He then arose and walked slowly and deliberately to the front of the plat form, raised himself to his full helghtand looked over hfe audience for a little with out uttering a syllable. He then began to unbutton and slowly remove a long linen duster which covered a conventional suit of black. After folding It with great care and deliberation, he handed It to some one lust back of him and said in Ills clear, pene trating voice, that reached every ear iii his now quiet and expectant audience, ''Young man, hold that while I stone Stephen." The effect was electrical and all that Mr. Lincoln's friends could have desired. Douglas eloquence was forgotten. The audience was quick to catch the force and point of this play on words. They laughed and cheered and Yfere, at once placed In that receptive attitude that was necessary for Mr. Lincoln's successful rejoinder. Mr. Lincoln had, by this master stroke of wit, secured the goodwill and kindly at tention ot his hearers, whlie he proceeded to "stone Stephen" with arguments which have permanently enrlehed political liter ature and made the speaker the first re publican president of the United States. , Creusot Gnns. The Nineteenth Century. Creusot or "Le Creuzot" is a place In the department -of Saone-et-Lolre in Prance which has been long -famous for its extensive Iron Tvorks.s It does not fol low, however, that a "Creusot" gun was made at Creusot, because that name (s now applied tp all the guns that are manufactured by the great French firm of Schneider & Co., who In 1835 became possessed of the works at Creusot, -which, after being employed by the state under the revolutionary government for the manufacture of guns, were under the em pire handed back to private owners, though still receiving large orders for similar work from the emperor. After the peace in 1815 the works passed through the hands of various firms which failed In succession, until they were purchased by the predecessors of the present firm. In 1S67 Messrs. Schneider made themselves famous by being the first firm fully to apply and adapt to the manufacture of both plates for armored ships and guns various Inventions, chiefly English, nota bly the great Invention of Bessemer for the cheap manufacture of steel. From that time onward their works have been steadily developed. They have applied new processes to manufacture. Including the use of various alloys notably nickel, of whiqh In Its raw state the British em pire possesses almost a monopoly to the Improvement-of the quality, of the- steel, e e e New York Stock Exchange Chicago Board of Trade e CHAMBER OF COMMERCE oooeaoooooQQOOoooo I'll a .of -wljich they make their gruns. . irhey have "become the owners pf a vast, area of. ground in the neighborhood of Havre, arid h'ave there created gigantic work shop! almost on as large a scale as" their works at Creusot Thus, curiously enough, it has come to pass that when we speak of a "Creuspt" gun, we mean a gun of whatever size made by the great French Arm of Schneider & Co., whether It has in fact been made at Creusot or at Havre.
