WEDNESDAY, Leo. o,

"WEDNESDAY. Dec. o.
The feature OF to-day's atock market was a
sharp and tenn porarny effective drive against
the Industrial stocks. IL was based doubtless
upon the condition OF the money market
which has Influenced lenders OF money
70 discriminate against the newer Sc
surities dealt In on the Stock Exchange.
Time loans on Industrial shares can be
made by good houses at about 8 per cent per
snnum. but tho same collateral has to be used
very sparinely in making up call loans at our
rent rates and some lenders prefer not to take
them at all.
The advocates OF lower prices also made a
demonstration against the railway list. but as
they did not induce liquidation In that section
Of the market as they did In the indus
trial group. the extreme declines were
unimp ortant except In tho local traction
stocks. particularly In Brooklyn RAPID
Transit and In Manhattan Railway. Efforts TO
depress the prices OF railway shares were or
set. to an extent. by current trafflo returns and
by the increase OF y OF per cent In the divi-
dend on Atohison preferred.
Another factor that helped to sustain the
railway list was moderate buying Of the In
ternationally listed stocks by London.
The demand from London appeared to
be based almost entirely upon expectations
OF favorable war news from South Africa.
good deal Of the speculative selling since the
begin ming OF tho week has been in
consequence OF conviction that money Is
likely to rule close until after the end OF the
current calendar year. and that therefore many
speculative ventures will be closed. At the
same time II Is to be noted that the selling for
short account seemed to out-run the llauida-
ton In the late trading to-day. for there was
sharp rally on the covering OF shorts during
the last hour that was due entirely TO the
a - h. anA
professional market
A purely sentimental influence in tho final
movement OF prices was drop in call money
rates to 3 per cent that was due to the fact
that the demand had been supplied earlier In
the day than usual. The rally left large part
OF the list fractionally higher than yesterday.
The railroad stocks were most conspicuous In
the recovery. Southern Pacific was excep-
tionay strong on the further concentration
OF the stock In the hands Of the syndicate con-
trolling the company
The declaration OF the usual quarterly divi-
dend upon Sugar Refining common was fol-
lowed by a drop in the price OF the stock that
was In turn succeeded by an equally sharp
recovery. All OF tho iron and steel stocks suf-
fered severely In the early retroRrade move
mcnt and with the exception OF Federal Steel
common closed lower than last night. U. q.
Leather was exceptionally strong throughout
and with Laolede Gas closed at material net
gain.
Sales OF Government bonds to the Treasury
were again light. being only 81. 4p8. making |
the total disbursements by the Sub Treasury |
