WALL STREET SPECULATION
A Decided Shrinkage Of Business With
Lever Prices
European Demand Suffers
Sudden Reaction

NEW YORK, jan 20-There was a fur
thor decided shrinkage in the volume of
business in stocks today and prices worked
toward a lower level. chiefly as result of
bear aggression. Speculation for a rise
was discouraged at the outset by reac-
tion in the London prices Of American Sc
curities and the indispositon of commits
sion house clients to trade left the field
comparatively clear for the bear profess
sionals and room operators. Selling by
houses with Washington connections was
somewhat OF a feature and the specialtes.
as usual In a narrow market, scored the
widest fluctuations in prices. The indus
trials as group overshadowed the rail-
way shares in point of activity but. gener
ally speaking. the distribution of the deal
ings was not up to the recent average.
Sugar was irregular with range of l
per cent and closed fractionally lower. The
only suggestion of news affecting the prop
erty was the formal answer of the Wool
son Spice company to the petition OF the
Arbuckle interest for a receiver, denying
all the allegations made therein. The dull
ness of the general market was relieved
by one or two special movements. Consid-
cradle interest was attached to reports of
impending meeting of the government rep
resentatives in Union Pacific and expected
conferences between Attorney General
Harmon and the reorganization syndicate
which were believed to foreshadow pro-
ceedings for the foreclosure of the Union
Pacific property. There was not, however.
even ripple in the market for the com
panys securities. In tho final dealings
a better tone developed. chiefly In cover
ing and rallies of 1U2 per cent were made
The closing was stendy. The bond mar
ket gave the first evidence OF weakness TO-
DAY, that has been apparent In this depart
ment for long time. The total saies

BOSTON WOOL MARKET

BOSTON, Jan. 20.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow OF
the wool trade The market has broad
ened IN quite q noteworthy manner since
last week and great deal of wool has
been purchased by the smaller mills as
well as larger mills the presence of the
latter In the market having had the effect
OF sending the former into the market.
Orders in the goods market are not in
creasing in a striking manner. but with
SO much wool being absorbed by the pow
er1ui manufacturers with the prospect that
duty will eventually be placed on raw ma
terial and with the certainty that medium
amount of orders will be received for the
manufactured product. the mill owners
don't dare at this time to be without wool.
While prices are not ouotably changed,
the market is undoubtedly firmer than a
week ago. Good sales of fieeces, territory
and Australian. are reported. Sales in the
phia aggregated 9,975.900 pounds, 6,S57, 900
