NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Market is Uncertain at First, but
Closes Firm at General Advance.

Closes Firm mt General Advance.
NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The stock market
halted in an uncertain way today before
the publication of the bank statement, and
after a dip following the publication was
strongly supported and closed firm at gem
eral recoverles. Rock Island and Amalga-
mated Copper were effective leaders. The
~ point rise in Rock Island had no other
explanation than a good statement or earn
ings for November and claims for very
large future earnings. The buying of the
stock was concentrated and was attributed
to western orders. The movement In Anal
gamated was reported to be due to buying
on account of rival interests, which was Of
fered as corroboratiVe evidence of the ru-
mors Of an agreement to end the copper war
by arbitration. Amalgamated interests put
out disclaimers of these rumors. The stock
advanced 3s on very heavy buying. There
was palpable proht-taking in Brooklyn
Transit, Manhattan and under cover OF the
new movement in Rock, Island. Reports
from the west of a threatened breach in
railroad relations growing out of the recent
contest in Colorado Fuel caused a break in
Denver & Rio Grande preferred. The de-
was larger than foreshadowed. Some re-
lief was felt, however, at the decrease In
loans, although II was small, as there was
some apprehension that loans had been eN-
panded during the week to obtain funds for
the liquidation of foreign obligations.
The heavy drop in cash reserves and the
enormous expansion In credits OF the banks
of England and of attracted at
tention. This is not abnormal In the great
central banking institutions abroad, and
there is always a quick and violent return
of funds into the reserves after the turn OF
the year. The retention of the 4 per cent
Bank of England rate, however, Is not OF
much significance, as the bank has been
transferred to New Orleans through the
subtreasury today, and the squeeze of De-
biiity of an emergency from Chicago for
money. A feature of the day was a number
of sharp advances in inconspicuous stocks.
The following are the closing prices on
the New York Stock exchanges.

traders were largely on the bull side. May
closed unchanged at 34c, after ranging be-

172 cars.
Provisions were stronger at the opening,
Influenced by a light run of hogs and higher

active buyers as they had been for several

CATTLE-There were Just a few odd
punches of cattle In the yards this morning
and almost nothing was offered for sale.
For the week receipts were only about half
as large as for last week, but there is

A good proportion OF the offerings all
the week consisted of cornfed steers, but
the most of them were only short fed and

choice beef. Packers, though, had to have
a few cattle, and, owing to the light offer
ings, they had to pay considerably more

The stocker and feeder market was very

allied that Christmas week was no time to
send in stock cattle, and as a result receipts
were extremely light. The demand was of
