NEW YORK, Dec. 10.~The market was awakened today from the condition of lethargy which has recently prevalled by an urgent and precipitate selling movement. he selling gained in volume as the day passed, until violent declines were forced in the last half hour of the trading. Tak- ing of quick profits by room traders was the only source of buying and the closing exiremely unsettled and active though ve the lowest figures. Losses reached 3 points or over in a few leading active stocks, including 8t. Paul, Pennsylvania, New York Central, Reading, Manhattan and Amalgamated Copper. Tne losses generally ranged from 1 to over 2 oints. There were evidences of profes- lonal attacks on the market, but the de- ines In prices dislodged large stop-loss orders and induced the regular selling of long stock by tired holders. The immediate factor In causing the decline was the ship- ment of $1,000,000 in gold to South America and the growing evidences of pressure in the money market. Liguidation did not appear to be forced by large calling of loans, as the call loan rate did not run above 6 per cent, but apprehension that this measure would be adopted by the bank: ! a large part in the decline, Besides the gold outgo, today's _subtreasury statement showed nearly $800,000 additional cash taken up in the money market. The ifiroads upon bank- ing reserves since the last bank statement have already risen to about $4,500,000, with promise of a continued drain. In the time money market additional difficulty was found In securing loans on any terms. The 6 per cent rate for all periods was pureiy nominal and the actual rate paid was en- tirely @ matter of private treaty between borrower and lender and depended largely on claims of previous business association. The foreign exchange market was unaf- fected by the gold engagement and held steady at yesterday's figures. New York exchange at Chicago fell back to 10c pre- mium. The day's sales of grain for export proved somewhat disappointing and dis- turbed the hopes of an early replenishment of forelgn exchange market from that source. The small receipts of cotton tended to_the same conclusion. Favorable factors were ignored in the trading, and the weakness of the particular stocks affected by speclal news develop- ments had a sentimental effect in weaken- ing the whole market. Thus the agreement reached in the Colorado Fuel dispute wa greeted with a 5%-point drop in that secur- ity, the lrgument being that the settlement removed the stock from the influences of a market contest for control. The circulation of & syndicate contract inviting deposits of Hocking Valley stock for the purpose of returning the preferred stock and of voting the common stock for consolidation, mergers or other combina- tion, carried a pretty broad intimation of plans maturing for the consolidation of control of the bituminous coal carrlers in the middle states, but this only served to induce realizing in those stocks. Reports of a working agreement between Union Pacific and 8t. Paul authorities for through business did not save St. Paul from being one of the weakest stocks on the list. Heavy selling of Northern securitfes on the curb had a sympathetic effect on the whole market. The bond market became weak in sym- athy with stocks. Total sales, par ue, ,480,000.

Trains were late In arriving, the same as has been the case for some little time, and trading was slow from start to anisn. proportion of the receipts con- siated Cof Sornfed steers and the market Was very slow and unevenly lower. As & general thing, though, a dime would cover tne decline. ~Sellers did not like to take oft again today, 60 that It was rather late before much business was done. The cow market was also slow and lower, with the decline running from 10c to 15c. All classes suffered, the good as well as the common, but it was noticeable that the prices pald were uneven. That, ho ever, ie usually the case when been going down as rapidly as they have this week. Bulls, veal calves and stags all sold a little lower in sympathy with the break on cows and steers. TThere was not a very heavy supply of stockers and feeders in_ sight, but the de- | mand from the country was also very ! {imited, so that speculators were not very anxious’ for fresh supplies. Some of the more desirable offerings sold at right close to steady prices, but the big bulk of the cattle sold m little lower.

Subsequent business was upon a steadily upward scale, with the advance finally a matter of 4 to 7 points and the close steady at & net rise of 2 to points. The demand improved as the day advanced. The higher ruling of prices started on better cables than was expected and was accelerated by indications of con- tinued small receipts and generally firm spot markets. Following the opening call there was a feverish demand from shorts on indications of very light receipts at Houston and small estimates from other points of accumulation. Wall street be- came a factor, giving preference to March and May, while the publie demand in g n eral was for these months and aiso for July and August. Considerable investment developed. Private cables from Liverpool indicated ‘a_growing uneasiness in conse guence of the smailness of the movemen: he demand todiy was from all classes of buyers.
