STIFFNESS In STOCKS
SEVERAL INFLUENCES COMBINED
GIVE STRENGTH TO PRICES.
with Few Exceptions Every stock
shows u Small Gain--CaIl Money
Is Ftrm-A Squeeze Expected.

New York December 23.--Several factor.
combired in the last hour of trading on
the Stock Exchange today to lift it out
OF the dul.ness and the depression which
hal been it's characteristic all day and to
raise prices quite sharply above last
nights closing level. One of these factors
was the subsistence OF apprehension ear
lier ir the day. caused by the closing of
the Chestnut Street bank in Philadelphia.
Another was the joint traffic association
had succeeded In securing measures tend
ing to assure the restoration and MAIN
terance of seaboard rates on live stock
provisions and grain frcm Eastern 10
Western ports. Another was the an
nouncement from the treasury department
ut Washington that sufficient amounts OF
tho currency IS were being offered FOR
redemption on December q. in accordance
with the governments plan TO assure re-
lief to the market from the scarcity
threatened by tho Withdrawals of the
Union Pacific payment to the gov crnmeut.
Still another factor was the news from
Albany that the railway commission had
extended by two years the period for
Ni"ibpiHtT iitibiil NtlS WITH auNp1lld 'iC
couplers in New York State.
A number of specialties, which had
showed marked strength AN day, took on
renewed blioyancy ait the close and helped
in the rise. The movement in the general
list was not important the dealings be-
ing small and representing little more than
the covering of short contracts. The Van
