New York, January 4.-Stooks-During
tins first hour the market was dominated
By the heavy sailing for London account.

further Improvement.
The trouble In Berlin seems to be pure
" local During the panic which pre-
vailed rather more than two weeks ago.
some weak houses there were carried
over. The bulk of the foreign sales was
made durisg the first hour today and are
estimated any where from 35, 900 TO 81, 0OO
shares. The pressure to sell on the part
of the London houses stopped shortly at
ter eleven O'Clock and private oablss
stated that liquidation had been accom-
plishsd. A good demand for stocks i'm
mediately made its appearance, large
portion of the buying being no doubt to
cover shorts. The sharpest advance took
place In sugar In spite Of the fact that
the only news to hand was that IL was
not believed In Boston that any cessation
Of the war was in sight. There was good
buying of the vanderbilts, more especial
ly New York Central. Big four and G.
and o. were strong on q renewal Of the
time worn story of consolidation Of the
two systems.
AT 70 time was there any stringency in
the money market; In fact towards the
olcse money was drug and was offered
down to two per cent. The prevailing
rate, however, was probably s 1-2
During the last half hour reaction
took place owing to largo liquidation.

over last nights closing prices.
