NEW YORK STOCK MARKET XEW YORK, Jan. 8.—There was profit taking on quite a large scale in the stock market to- day after an additional advanc the early trading. That there should be taking of profits after the rise of the last two days was to be expected and the professional dealers who bought stocks late on Wednesday and Thursday sold their holdings of the most actlve and strongest issues. The realizing was quite pronounced in its effect on New York Central and Sugar, which reacted more than a point from the high level of the morning. There was evidence of continued realizing also in the local tractisn companies. These stocks have advanced steadily all through the dullness and depression of the last few weeks, apparently on pool operations and the general strength of thé market is being avalled of to take profits in these. Some of the anthracite group also continued under depressfon in the day. Not- tanding these reactionary tendencies the 1 tone of the speculation continued strong confident. Business was on a large scale and embraced a large number of different sues, some of the usually inactive stocks being brought into prominence by sharp advances. Realizing at the close reduced prices consid- ably from the best and in some cases wiped an earlier gain. This caused an easy clo With net chenges: mixed between gains Tosses. an The expected has happened 'n the stock mar- ket this week in an outbreak of something very like a furor of speculation and an upward rush of prices of pretty much all grades of se- curities. There was a halt in the anticipated awakening on Monday dnd Tuesday, and some declines due to several causes, but primarily to disappointment at the continued stiffness of the money market pending the final pay- ment of the Union Pacific settlement. This olved the withdrawal from the market of 585,400, and ‘its payment into the Treasu: . together with accumulation of funds i cident to regular January disbursements, re- sulted in ralsing the rate of money to 6 per cent on Monday. By Wednesday afternoon the funds thus disbursed began to come back into the market for {nvestment and the Govern- ment's outgo of interest and redemption had offset the Unfon Pacific payments. The de- €5 In prices of stocks earlier in the week were quickly retrieved and professional opera- tors and commission house brokers acting for Gutelde speculators and investors began to vie «With each other in marking up prices. To-Aay's bank statement shows the complete renabllitation of the New York money market, which has been accomplished not only by the Telease of funds at this center, but by a large inflow of money from interior points, invited Ly the recent high rates for money. Notwith- standing that additional deposits of $10,528,300 have lifted the level of the legal reserve by $2.622.075, the heavy cash increase of $9,107,900 lewves the surplus reserve $6,475,525 higher than last week. Conditions Indeed promise such a plenitude of money that money lenders . helr prospects marred and there is talk -Teleasing to the Government its deposits which clearing | taken | in prices in | MERCIAL WORLD. | part of the Union Pacific payments.

The high rate for money was re-enforced as a factor of stock market depression by the forebodings expressed b prominent railroad presidents on Monday that there would be no profit in_competitive rail- road business, us there had been none, unless Congress would authorize pooling. Recent bull | leaders of speculation made rather ostenta- | tious display of discouragement over these ut- terances. Later developments suggest that the official trepidation may have been expressed Wwith & view to effecting projected legislation, and that the bull speculators may have so far | overridden the then existing fears as to lay in an ample line of stocks, looking to the later disposition of the clouds upon thelr minds with the rise in prices.

NCIAL SITUATION. | NEW YORK, Jan. 8.—The Financler says: The conditions outlined in the analysis of the New York bank statement for December 31, | inatcating an easier foney market, are re- | flected tn a still more noteworthy degree in the | exhibit of the clearing-house institutions for | the week ending January 8. The banks have gained heavily in cash and deposits and the Surplus reserve is $6,4 25 larger than seven days ago. The statement includes the dividend | period covering the first of the year. What this means s shown in the fact that the clearings for the week In New York exceed $1,000,000,000, The expansion of $10. ,300 in dep ts aal €8 n of $3.107.900 représent the payment of inter- est which have been made. Part of the ir croase, however, n be attributed to the in- terior movement, hich is bringing $2,000,060 into New York every week. This money w first attracted by the temporary high rates pre THE FI change and the belief that the need for ex- | coupon, % for do registered, % for the &'s | | | | | vailing, but its return from this time will be a : purely normal operation. The reserves of the New York banks for years past have been swelled from January well into the spring season by interior remittance: the expansion being regulated by current busi- ness conditions. There is mo reason for be- lieving that the movement will be less than in former years, and the only inference is money will be easler. As the trade balance in favor of the United States seems to be grow- ing, it would not be strange if the investment of “sterling exchange, now approximating $20,- 000,000, were increased. This, however, is depend- ent solely on the course of money rates abroad. The Bank of England reserve is lower than for vears, but as a hearty increase is usually made after the beginning of the year, it looks as If money in Furope is following the same course as {n the United States. In that case the surplus funds of this country will have to seek domestic channels for employ ment. Tt need not be reneated that necessitate a most favorable business outlook to absorh the full total of the money now avail- able. The surv is getting on a self-sust relieve the situa- tion somewhat bv stopning the steady stream that has been pouring into the market because | N of continued deficiencies.

In fact, the entire mar- ket for several months past has been controlled by the coast collieries. The total engagements to date of coal carriers from Sydney and New- castle, en route and to be loaded, figure up 70,000 tons cuNn‘l{ The total Colonial ship- ments of coal to S 658,372 tons, €520 tons in excess of 159. Present high freight rates and the increased duty will materially diminish shipments from the Col- onles this year, unless we shall have seasona- ble rains later on, which will induce tonnage to seek this port. It is difficult to guess how coal will act during the currency of this year.
