New York Stock Market. NEW_YORK, Dec. 30.—The transactions of ck Exchange to-day were more or less the St by the holiday frolics of the brokers on the floor, but there was sufficient e evening-up of accounts for the e r to make quite an active nd some irregularity in prices. The ore and Ohlo stocks after their upward ¢ yesterday were consplcuously affected, common falling back nearly 2i and the preferred over a point. The most active of the specialties, including Sugar, the Tobaccos and the New York City traction stocks were | also irclined to react, although the undertone was strong and there was a disposition to s for the expected demand after the first of the year. The expectations of this de- | 4 1s based on the sudden relapse in the | hold st rates at all the leading financial cen- ters, the London discount rate falling below | and the Berlin rate show- | bank rate to-da: a further de tne. This gives ground for be brought to a stop. It is possible, however, that the relaxation in forelgn money rates may be based on expectations of further sup- plies of gold from this country. That being | the case bankers believe there may be recur- rences of money stiffness in January. The s trading demonstrated that the level of | stiil offers inducements for investment | of small lots of less than d even more conspicuous an on s All grades of stocks embraced in this demand down to the vidend paying stocks with only remote cts of return. The prevalling sentiment he exchange was decidedly bullish. The tant striving of the financial world to an- vents is responsible for the paradox v recovery in prices of securities and This tendency of the financial world | esponsible for the week's event in a two- se. Last week's panic conditions were X ults of preparation for the money pinch which n looked for at the close e s forced liquidation overdid as such violent movements are certain and Wall street found itself unex- pectedly flush of funds with prices of securi- ties at the lowest level of the year and a| practically universal conviction that the be-| ginning of the new year will mark a period of easier moner with the regular reflux of funds from active use in business to the world's financial centers. The speculative world therefore executed an abrupt about face and rushed to buy stocks to anticipate the »s supposed to be coming With the The demand was particularly urg- hort interest, which had over- 1f last week and worked some nt recoveries in stocks which had suffered most severely from last week's panic. For instance Metropolitan Street Rallway, which closed on December 23, at 167, sold In the panic at and rallied this week to . _whioh, allowing for the dividend de- Gnctad, s equivatent 5o Gver 1. 1o tact the | ral ‘level of prices has recovered to about at of the Saturday before the panic. From the speculative standpoint doubts have arisen whether the violence of this recovery was not exc ive and there has been realizing by hold- . who bought in the panic either to sustain | prices or in a hunt for bargains and renewed short selling at the r The ered high level owing table will give an idea of the | e of the speculative movement in the Stock market during the past account for the wide vibrations of the last two weeks in ihe attempts to find the equilib- rium of the true values. Those stocks have heen sclected in which tLe variations have been widest, but generally speaking they are also those in which transactions have been largest, 50 that they are fal ket In the column headed *About January 3" prices marked with an asterisk are the first or listing prices of stocks floated during the year: | Low in About Stocks— High.

There are stocks which have had the dividend rate increased and which have nevertheless fullen back below the level ruling before the ulative rise set in, in anticipa- tion of the increase. It is the realization of this fact and calculation of the rate of returns ©On money invested that have brought on to the market a large element of investment buyers who buy stocks outright to hold. The large absorption of the floating supply of stocks thus accomplished the forced liquidation of doubtful | and unsafe accounts, and, in the Wall-street phrase, the squeezing of the water out of prices’ and gives basis for the confidence with -mcn fovestment buying is prosecuted.. Faith in ihe continuance of the country’s pmperfly within the present horizon of the outiook is unimpatred. Prices of gilt-edge investment bonds were not much affected in last week's trade,-but the Junior grade, or newly fssued or contingent in terest-paying bonds, which suffered last week, have been in good demand this week.
