THURSDAY. Jan. I7-P. ".

THURSDAY, Jan. III. NJ
The stock speculation of to-day was of a notified
character. Early dealings showed general de-
cline in prices aud the later operations show re-
coveries that leave prices for the general market
higher than they were last evening. The
alleged moving motor to the late rally was the
port that the Delaware, Lackawauna and Western
Company had consented to leave to arbitration its
percentage in the. business from New-York.
As we are advised, the report is
correc but even that does not change the fact that
there now are four railways between Eew-YOrk and
Buffalo instead of two railways year ago
Barring continuous drbbling OF "lOng
stocks from the public the market is still a purely
local affair. But it must not be ignored that the
loans of banks and of trust companies show that
these institutions have larger interest involved
in the quotations for stocks than they before
have had. The amount of their loans upon
stock collaterals marks an emphatic
manner the difference between the terms "liQulda-
ton" and a shrink-up of values. The public evil
deuce of indebtedness.as shown by the weekly bank
statements and by the annual report of the trust
companies, never was as large as it now is at this
season of the year, Till after o'clock prices for
stocks generally ruled lower than yesterdays
lowest, but after that there was
sharp rally which, almost without ex-
ception, carried the figures above yesterdays
claims In the late advance the stocks of Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western, Lake Shore, Central and
Hudson, Union Pacific, Missouri Pacific, st. Paul
and Northwestern were conspicuous; Western
Union, after rally of 1ss from its lowest price.
closed the same as it did last evening. and the
Wabash, after rallies OF "a and l per
cent. closed. one half lower than last evening.
The market closed excited but unsettled.
Government bonds were inactive at steady figures,
and the final quotations are as follows:
