NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-The stock market
was exceedingly irregular in the early
dealings. the trading rejecting both re-
newal of the confident buying that was
present yesterday and, further. continu-
alton of the scattering liquidation that
marked yesterdays initial transactions. In
the main, however, the markets undertone
was decidedly firm, and at the opening its
tendency was generally toward higher
prices. Some effect was produced by the
weakness of the London market. where the
depression was due to the unsatisfactory
condition of affairs in South Africa, and
also to the impending issue of consols.
There was little in the local situation
developed over night bearing upon the
market. good deal of satisfaction was
derived from the large volume of appli-
cations for Government deposits made yes
terday TO the Treasury, as it was expected
that this indicated early relief to the none
tary situation. On the other hand. the
prospects of heavy gold shipments this
week had a contrary effect although it
was pointed out that the relief they would
afford 10 the London situation would al
most certainly be reflected here.
Active features of the market at the
opening of business were Southern Rail-
