STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Dec. 22.-There was moth
ing in today's stock market to refute the
opinion generally held in Wall street
that speculation in securitiesu will con-
tinue dull until after the first of the
year, and Of the release of some of the
funds at present locked up in large fnan-
cial operations. Sagging prices are gen.
orally the accompaniment Of such a
market, but there was sufficient strength
In special stocks due to special causes
today to act as sustaining force on the
general list, and net gains are the rule
in consequence. The marked features in
the trading and the centres of greatest
strength were the local traction COM
panies. The motives for the buying of
these stocks were the reports of bust
ness compromise between the Metropoli-
tan and the Third Avenue companies,
and belief that the chances were not
good for the success of the underground
rapid transit scheme. Third Avenue
was benefited to the extent of 6 points,
and Metropolitan Street Railway over
2. Manhattan rose 3 points but lost
q fraction. The coalerS were agrees
sively strong and showed gains of be-
tween / and points, the Reading issues
being especially prominent. There were
vague rumOrs of an intended dividend on
Readings first preferred stock, which
influenced the trading. The industrial
specialties generally show net gains of
quite large fractions. The statements
of estimated earnings for the last
quarter of the year Of the several Van
.derbilt railroads were viewed unfavora-
bly, and acted as something Of drag on
the railroad list.
Call loans were made today at rates

New York, Dec 22.-The heavy sales
which have followed the recent reduc-
tions in bleached goods have proved to
he of great service in reducing stocks and
producing a reaction in the dry goods
market in the shape of an advance on
several of the principal lines yet. This
It is understood. will be followed by
corresponding advance in other quar-
ters. although it is probable that the
sales of goods in the lines less widely
known. has been more restricted than In
the Lonsdale and Fruit of the Looms
bleached cottons. The advances made
were as follows:
Dwight Anchor. A bleached ~ per
cent; Dwight Anchor A and half
bleached 81 per cent; and Fruit of the
Loom A bleached " Of a cent, bring
ing the price of the latter to six cents per
yard net This, of course. has re-
suited in reducing the amount and num-
Der of orders received and has caused
some shopping on the part of buyers
and natural gain in the sales of less
important lines.
COTTON.

market had all the holiday characters

ume of business small and chiefly in the
hands of the local element. Opening
steady at 1 point decline, to l point ad-
vance, the subsequent variations worked
within the scope of 6 points. The close
was steady at net gain of to points.
The room traders had their interests
fairly covered and were not disposed to
add new responsibilities in view of the
holidays. This mornings cables We're
regarded as encouraging to spot sales at

h Our real estate men report that the
settlers who are coming to Mile Laos
county this spring are much better off
financially than any who have put in
an appearance heretofore. They are
coming from the more populous por-
tions of the country, where farming
lands have become too expensive to al
low profitable farming, and having sold
their farms there have plenty of money
to buy new farms here, put up build
ings and have something left. If the
people who came here before and in
vested their all in land and run into
debt. for buildings, ETC., have been able
to succeed land they have) how much
better is the prospect for this years
immigrants. One real estate man told
a reporter Tuesday evening that he
knew of several cases where people
had purchased land on time, the last
dollar in their pockets going to make
the first payment, and yet they had
been able to improve their farms, keep
up their payments and pay their inter-
est and taxes promptly. Where else
could this be done except in the rich
agricultural county Of Mile Laos? So
far this week four sales for cash have
been made by our firms here. Gust
