 New York, Jan. 1.-The market for stocks today did not differ materially from that of yesterday. The aggressive bull mood of the speculative world continued in full force, and all the large professional opera tors were buyers of stocks. That they were reinforced by a marked addition of outside interest in the market was shown by the large number of orders in specula- tive stocks placed through commission houses. There was also a continued ab- sorption of bonds of all descriptions, very heavy orders being placed. The pressure - for funds for reinvestment, which has been released by the January dividend and in- terest payments, was very obvious. Elf forts were made by the banks and money lenders to keep the rate for money as high as per cent. Loans were in fact placed at 31b per cent, but the rates sagged off to 2 per cent, and the last loan of the day only commanded 21a per cent. Owners of money were also lively bidders for commercial pa- per- London was quite a. large buyer in this market of several of the international stock, notably Union Pacific and Louisville and Nashville. The Vanderbilts continued to hold the leading place oh the reported determination of the controlling interests in these properties to see traffic rates maintained. There was also renewal of . old reports of a combination involving these lines and looking to through trans-con- tinental traffic The most conspicuous movement in this market was in Susque- hanna and Western securities, due to the reported passage of the control of the property to Erie interests. The fears Of the minority stockholders led to an un- loading of their holdings and slump of points in the common stock without re- coyery, and of points in the preferred, with rally of over point In the latter. The bonds of the company were very strong on the belief that they would be guaranteed by the new controlling com- pany
 This break caused sympathetic weak ness in all the coalers and mild weather worked to the same end. Some of the lead- ing railroad stocks show small net losses, but this tendency was most pronounced in the recently active stocks of local corpora tions.
 The realizing of the last hour invited by the days notable rise affected the special ties most, but it's effect was quite marked throughout the list, reducing the days net gains sharply in some cases. Net gains outside the coalers and a few specia1ties extend all the way from fraction to over a point The abundant replenishment of the local money market had led to talk of the surrender by New York banks of the government deposits now in their vaults on account of the Union Pacific payment.
 The bond market continued very active today, and large numbers of issues show gains of over per cent. Total sales. $4,- 550, 900.
