NEW YORK. Jan. 24. The realizing of peculative profits proceeded steadily to day at a resulting expense of prices. The only variation from the downward course was due to purely technical causes. Even the opening advance In prices was large ly due to manipulation, which began in the London market on oabled orders from hre before the market In New York opened. The ceneral steadiness in the London market, the rapid recuperation In the condition of the Bank of England and the continued ease of money there, in Bplte of large withdrawals from the mar ket by the bank, point to an early reduc tion in the Bank of England rate. The opening prices of stocks here proved In most cases to be the highest. The weak ness of the steel stocks, which began from the opening, proved a disappoint ment for those speculators who had hoped that the group would assume the leader ship of a new advance In prices because of the strength shown by the leading steel stocks yesterday. Yesterday's advance proved sufficient to brlng.in buying orders and the speculative backers of these stocks seemed Indisposed to offer very vigorous support. The coterie which bought stocks on Monday were credited with selling to realise, and there were large selling orders all day. whtch was at tributed to Chicago account The report ed ll!necs of 'inrrsf fndlvMval oper FINANCIAL NEWS ator in the street, and who .has been sup posed to be long on stocks, had consider able Influence on sentiment, but the real basis of the reaction was the failure to attract any renewed outside speculation as clearly demonstrated by the marked decline in the activity in the market Some attention was given to the reports of friction between the English and Rus sian Admirals in Chinese waters. The day's statements of treasury operations reflected the payments on account of gold withdrawn from the assay office for ex port, which more than wiped out the pre vious week's gain by the banks. A no table feature of the current money situa tion is the heavy reflux of National bank notes. Yesterday's Treasury statement shows that receipts of bank notes for cur rent redemption thus far this month have amounted to $13,861,608. For the six months ending January 1, the total was $53,293,848. The average per working day previous to this month was a little over $420,000, while for this month thus far the average is considerably over $700,000 per working day. Experience shows that this return movement of bank notes Is likely to continue heavy during February and March, and, in view of the expansion un der the new law, of about $95,000,000 in National bank note issues, it is likely to be aggravated this year. The limitation of $3,000,000 per month as the maximum allowed for retirement of bank notes re mains In the law, and will act as an ob stacle to the contraction of circulation. The current redemption of bank notes plays a large part In the large gains mak ing by New York banks on subtreasury operations, as New York banks receive a large proportion of Interior bank notes by return shipment, and besides receive drafts on account of bank notes received by their interior correspondents. This large return of bank notes from circula tion and the restriction on their retirement is expected to stimulate the pressure to place loans In the money market, and will operate to foster the tendency to Bhlp gold abroad, notwithstanding ease in for eign money markets. Extreme declines reached 4 in St. Paul; 4 in Brooklyn Transit, 2?i In Steel & Wire, 2 In Fed eral Steel and Manhattan, 2 in Northern Pacific, 2 in Great Northern preferred, VA In Sugar, and from 1 to 2 In a large num ber of active stocks. Kansas & Texas preferred made some show of strength. The bond market was reactionary In spots in sympathy with stocks, but ad vanced at others.

This was on the feeling that the Queen's death had been over-discounted also, however, and the bank returns, which were very strong. Americans were good. Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul led on a talk of 7 per cent dividend for that stock. This department moved up steadily until the New York opening. When that came In flat, the rise here was stopped. It was assumed that the cause of the reaction In New York was the gold shipments to Paris. Toward the close here and In the street afterward, the break waB very sharp.

The trading in this stock was the feature of the market and opinions varied as to its significance, some good buyers believing that the price was de pressed In order to accumulate stocks, while others thought that a line of long stocks were being closed out. The gen eral list after showing1 some hesitation In the early trading, gradually weakened and was in the main heavy, the opera tions being largely professional. Trac tion stocks were heavy and the Indus trials irregular. Sugar was quiet within limit fluctuations. Stocks of the Pacific group were sold practically all day.

May wheat opened 44c lower at 744c, influenced by Liver pool cables, which ignored the advance here yesterday. While the Liverpool mar ket was again open, business there was at a standstill and this condition had much to do In the dullness which per vaded the local pit during the forenoon. There was some fairly Important buying by bulls on the falling oft In Northwest receipts, but scalpers were bearish and did most of the selling, the market thus being confined to local hands. May ral lied during the forenoon to 75c, but trade was dull. Later trade was more active, some early sellers covering because of lighter receipts at primary Western points and seaboard clearances of 799,000 bushels In wheat and flour. May as cended to 75c and closed strong, 4?ic up at 754c. Corn was moderately active. The wheat strength was accountable In a measure for the firmness, but the market also showed considerable independent strength. There wns enbugh selling to have de veloped weakness had there been any, but liberal offerings were well taken. Shippers were fair buyers, and there was a good cash demand while the country movement was reported slow. May closed a shade higher. Oats were strong, but the market was local and narrow.

Greater Than In Any Previous Year, According: to- J. J, Valentine. , NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-J. J. Valentine, president of Wells, Fargo & Co., -has issued his annual report of metals pro duced In the states and territories west of the Missouri River, including British .Co lumbia and the Yukon District The re port states that the total gross result in 1900 was $299,315,427, of which gold con tributed $99,100,733; copper, $69,752,284, and silver, $42,402,502. The combined output of these metals last year was the gfeatest In thg history of this country and Canada, The world's production of gold, estimated at $236,000,000, shows a decrease of $68,000,000, as com pared with 1SS9. Australia mined $6,000,000 less, while the production In South Africa fell off on account of the, war.
