NEW TORK. Jan. . Short sharp bear

Ins; S points. Many of the other Important

bark one or two points.
The fire which burned all day tone In
th. Equitable building. 100 feet away from
the stock exchange, waa of substantial a
siatanoe to the bears. Trader, whose se
curities wer. In safe deposit values, which
were Inaccessible on account of tn. fire,
saw no way of making deliveries of stocks,
which added to the confusion. After the
stock exchange governors had ruied that
deliveries neod not be made today, the tone
of the market became firm. The continued
weakneea of Union Pacific was an unset
Ulna factor.
Tn. copper shares made no response to
the December figures of the copper pro
ducers, although a decline' In stocks of
metal on hand of 22. Sod, 000 pounds was re
vealed. The effect of the report, whioh
wss In Una with expectations, appeared to
hav. beon dlacounted and the coppefshares
went off with the rest of the market at th.
