KnwnlatlvA Kratlmrnt Amongst Ha . bltual Operators m Dcnrcaaed k Great Northern weaaens in opue of a Stronger General Market. New Tork. Feb. 6-There were signs ' of Improvement In the tone of the stock market to-day, and, either as a cause or a result of this showing of the murket. ' speculative sentiment amongst habitual operators In stocks was less depressed. The reservation with which the brighter sentiment Is excepted Is oue to tlis con flict with usual precedfnts in the pres ent action of the market as a prelude to an extended recovery. Prices tmv.; gone down steadily, without material rally since the first of the year and with gradual growth of resistance wnd a. lapse Into dullness. I'sunlly the pro gress of a decline arrives at a stage where the exhaustion of a margin, the uncovering of stop loss orders and the weariness of discouraged holders brings out a flood of urgent selllna and ft vio lent break In prices, which watchful professional operators on the short side take advsntage of to mv to cover the'r short contracts, thus causing en equal ly sudden rally. It Is after this se quence of events that the period of dull ness ami waiting is expected which pre luded the shape of the market for a new movement In either direction. There baa been no such culminating break In .the recent markt fallowing the steady, although at times rapid decline, snd there hss been no violent rnllv to Indi cate the effectunl conclusion of the spec ulative campalsn of the hears Thro hsvs been symptoms of belated liquida tion In the market Me yesterday and to-day In sneclal Mocks, which heln to keep alive the mlselv'ns that Imnortant aelllnr of sfr-ks remains to bs effected It was In fJrent Northern to-dav rind WesVcned that stork materially.
