NEW yak STOCK MARKET.

b NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-The stock
market to-day started in under the dis
couraging influence of lower prices,
international stocks in London and re-
ports of some embarrassment incident
al to the fornightly settlement at that
centre. The local traders, however,
acting upon the assumed fact that
market for the impending issue of
United States Government bonds had
been made prior to the formal public
announcement of the terms of such
issue. soon took hold and advised all
along the line In the upward move
ment, Central and Sugar gained
2 per cent and the Changers and other
prominent shares also scored sub
stantial improvement. The rise i'll
Sugar stock was stimulated by an adj
vance in the prices of domestic and
foreign sugars. The appearance of
definite information to the terms or
date when the issue of bonds would be
made. however, together with reports
of premiums on gold soon took the
snap out of the market, and slug
gishneSs and a declining tendency OF
prices characterized operations during
the remainder of the da. The result
was the loss of all of the early im
provement and in some instances re-
cessions materially below Saturdays
ciosings occurred. In the final deal
ings sugar displayed exceptional
strength, advancing 21a per cent, in
the face of the depression in the gen
! eral list This was attended by reports
that various powerful interests had
|proffered financial assistance to the
company with the proviso that they
bhould be allowed to name a successor
TO president Macer. The closing was
dull and uninteresting at the lowest
of the day.
The market for Railway and miscel-
laneous bonds ruled lower on dealings.

unexpectedly favorable news from
Liverpool; later the cables were not SO
good and reports from the South IN
dicated free offerings of spot cotton,
with some points reporting conces-
