New York Stock Market

New York, December 22.-There was
nothing in today's stock market to re-
flute the opinion generally held in Wall
street that speculation in securities viii

at present locked UP in large finan-
c~ialoperations. Sagging prices are gener-
ally the accompaniment OF such a mar
ket, but there was sufficient strength
in special stocks due to special causes
today to act as a sustaining force on
the general list and net gains are the
rule in nSequen The marked fea-
lures in the trading and the centres Of
great strength We're local traction COM
panies. The motives for the buying of
these stocks were the reports Of a bus
mess compromise between the Metro
politan and the Third Avenue compa-
MES and a belief thai the chances were
not good for the success of the under
ground rapid transit scheme. Third
Avenue was benefited to the extent OF
6 points and Metropolitan street rail-
way over .. Manhattan rose 3 points.
but lost a fraction. TIL coalers were
also aggressively strong and showed
gains Of W ! and 2 points. the
Reading issues being especially prom
! inent. There We're rumors of an IN
tended dividend on Readings first pre-
ferred stock, which influenced the trad
ing. The Industrial suecialties general
ly show net gains o. large fractions.
The statement Of estimated earnings
for the last quarter of the year of tho
several Vanderbilt railroads were view
ed ~unfavorably and acted as something
of a decline on the railroad list. Call
lOanS were made today at rates rang
ing between 3 to 4 per cent. and there
was a further decline in exchange post
ed rates, both long and short sterling
being marked down " and actual bust
ness being lone al a decline of Il for
cable transfers and long sterling and
of bcfordemandsterl The price for
demand sterling at the time of gold i'm
proveTnent last September did not fall
below S4.S4h. Money was cheaper in
Europe and at London at that time.
The present stiffness in the money mar
ket, it Is believed, will be only temper
airy and the completion OF the opera
tons connected with the Union Pacific
settlement and the disbursement Incl
dent to the beginning OF the year Will
give relief. For this reason the weak
ness of exchange has o induced talk
OF gold imports at New York. Cold Is,
however. on the way from Australia to
San Francisco.
The bond market was comparatively
inactive, especially in some OF the ia
vorite speculative issues. but prices
were well maintained. Total sales were
81, 400, 900. United States new As coupon
declined N bid. Total sales OF stocks
today were 1S4, 400 shares.

A LETTER SHE DID NOT WRITE.

(Margaret e. Sangster.)
It was never set down in black and
The loving letter she did not write:
She thought it out as she baked the
bread,
AS. she mended the stockings and made
the bed;
She wove the beautiful sentences through
The mornings work that was hers to do;
But it eve was written with ink and
pen,
For che boys came home from school,
She hadn't a chance in black aad white
To scribble the letter b did not write.
It never was dropped in the corner box
Which the faithful postnan's Key un-
It never was even begun, you see,
Though it throbbed with a true hearts
cOnstancy,
The far-away mother, the friend beloved
The kinsman dear, whom it must have
moved,
Were touching her hand with tender
clasp,
Were holding her heart in insistent
But it never was sent on its blessed
flight,
The dream of the letter she did not
write.
She gave up trying the thing at last,
When the busy day was almost past,
Filled with the measure from sun to sun
OF the womans work which is never
done!
The duties sacred, which yet seem slight.
The little wrongs which must be set
right,
She had found her paper and AXE her
sea
When the baby awakened, Hush, my
sweet
And Freddy brought her a puzzling sum,
And Teddy deafened her with his drum;
No wonder it faded quite out of sight,
The dear home letter she meant to write.
But, yet. all, yet! were the waves of air
Not stirred by her tender, worthless
prayer?
And did not her loving heart, full fain,
Send out its cry to her own and pain
OF longing bring in a subtle way
A pleasure deep in the waning day,
When some how she felt that an answer

a decline OF lad in Liverpool this
morning. the cotton marke; advanced
today. The Liverpool quotations were
not encouraging TO the bulls and tho
opening here was n shade under yes

the first call at $50. Receipts both at
the ports and interior towns were mod
