McADIE, Forecast Official. SR e ‘Wednesday; EASTERN MARKETS. e New York Stock Market. NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—The notable early strength in to-day’s stock market was appar- ently due to a resumption of activity on the part of some of the recently passive specula- tive pools. The so-called Western contingent was credited with large transactions. The op- erators on the bull side professed to have ad- vance information of the contents of the Presi- dent's the judgment of its effect was at fault, ac- Corting to the ‘action of the market, after the publication of the message. The advance hait- nme o: delivery of the mes- sage to ue. The market lacked 201 power of resistance to the selling move- ment from that time forward, and the selling pressure gained in force-until near the close, which was dull and heavy. The check to the recent upward course of the speculation in the local tractions had a depressing effect on the general market. The decline in tractions was due to a natural desire to profits, but also in part to the announcement that a judiclal decision on the special franchise tax was coming. Another chilling influence was the indication of renewed trouble in the money market, contained In a flurry in the call rate to 7 per cent. This was attributed in part to the requirements of pay- | ing $15,000,000 subscriptions to mew Illinois | Central stock, but the engagement of $500,000 in gold for shipment to South America was of even greater sentimental effect. This gold goes to pay for wheat bought for account of Eng- g the, Cor gone to Paris to pay London debts. The de- posit of $850,000 at the sub-treasury for trans- fer to San Francisco marked the continuance of interfor needs for money. Collections of customs continue to make | heavy inroads on the New York money market. trust companies are offering special- induce- ments for December deposits was a disquieting the stock market all of its early advances and carried the level for many prominent stocks from 1 to 2 points under last night. The losses in_the local tractions Were eveén more severe. The bond market became easier, in sympathy with the late transactions in stocks. Total sales, par value, $2,175,000. United States 3s coupon declined 3 per cent on the last call, NEW YORK STOCK LIST. Stocks— Low. Close.
