VERY LARGE LIQUIDATION.
STOCK CLOSED AT DECLINE,
Dealings in General Market Were If
Hands of Professionals and There
Was a Late Recovery.

New York December 2&-Today's aggre-
gate dealings were slightly In excess OF
those yesterday, principally by reason of
the continued active speculation for a fall
In sugar. The dealings in the general mar
ket were in the hands OF professional
traders and only small part of the days
operations originated outside the board
room. The late recovery in prices after
their downward tendency Of the early part
OF the day was sufficient to put the pro
fesslonal stamp upon the days market.
Even in sugar, although there was OBJ
viousy very large liquidation, the largest
traders on the exchange Joined actively In
the selling for short account. There were
sNAs OF 1000 to 10000 shares during the
day by individual brokers, and some of
the largest sellers bought to cover before

one time to 1885, representing a decline OF

IRON the shorts rallied it to iO6A and the
closing was at 1854, representing net
loss OF 3%.
The traders offered pesslmlstic arguments
of the very large accumulation Of stocks,
the wlping out of profitable margin in
the price and the threatening increase In
the production of beet sugar. Parallels
were drawn with the Copper episode to
point TO the inadequacS of the great in
udstrlnl combinations to regulate and con
troi trade in staple products.
Meantime the copper market in London
made turn from its long downward course
and rallied quite strongly. Amalgamated

Only moderate activity prevailed at yes

produced by simple desire of sellers and
buyers to postpone action until after the

there was ready absorption on any decline
