WALL STREET IS ALMOST
DESERTED BY SPECTATORS.
STORM HELPS PROMOTE LONG
INCREASING DTLLNESS.
Anxiety Over Money Market the
Feature of the Day-Cash Re
serves Much Reduced.

New York. Dec. 1.-The various restrict
I've influences which have brought down the
volume of activity in the stock market had
an addition to-day in the stormy weather.
The attendance of the brokers at the board
was Ineager. and the small number of room
traders had the market much to them
selves. as they were almost isolated by the
cutting off OF wire communication with The
outside world. As a consequence, the net
Results OF the days trading Were extremely
small The selling by room traders during
The early part Of the day made consider
able inroads upon prices. but in the absence
OF outside Response and not desiring TO re-
main uncovered over night. they rcbought
the stocks sold early. causing a general re-
r"Very. The market was really without
significance. So far as the sentiment Of the
lure OF the money market was still evident.
The forecast of the weekly bank statement
iu!ly justified this feeling. The banks have
apparently lost nearly s7.tIJ.Hs from their
cash reserves during the week. II will BE-
remembered that last weeks loss was un-
GgrStated in the bank statement by nearly
32HH,pe by reason of TIL. working of the
aE-:dge system Of computation.
MONEY Is MOVING.
The movement Of currency has been in
idNoI OF the interior again to the extent of
nearly s.HS.t"". including the deposits at the
Subtreasury for Geographic transfer to the
Interior. The balance of the loss is made
up OF customs and internal revenue pay
ments and the H.9e,o0 exported to South
America. There is the usual obscurity re-
garding the changes in the loan item in the
banks. There has been nothing in the stock
market to indicate extensive liquidation of
loans. The change in that item is likely to
depend on syndicate operations and on
movements in the foreign exchange market.
Tension In the time-money market has APP
probably grown during the week, but call
loan rates showed a tendency to relax to-
day. This was partly due to the lightness
of the demand. The weeks exports of grain
show a rising tendency. promising some re-
lief from that source for the foreign ex-
situation.
The bond market was dull and Irregular.
Total sales. par value. 81, 1850 4. United
States bonds were all unchanged on the
last call.
