MONETARY SITUATION
BASIS OF STRENGTH
Expectation of Easier Rates After jan
uary I Causes Optimistic Feel
ing on Exchange.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2s.-The stock mar
ket was active and buoyant from the
start today. and business again covered
a large variety of issues. The lower
London quotations had only a slight in
fiuence.
The strength of ST. Paul had decided
influence in favorably affecting senti-
ment and the stock was well absorbed.
The better support to Pennsylvania also
was favorable feature.
The movement i'm Amalgamated Cop
per strengthened the conviction of
traders that Standard Oil interests had
taken up the work of manipulating, so
sensationally conducted from Boston a
week ago.
The optimism Of the speculation con-
tinued TO be mainly influenced by ex-
peetations of easy money after January
/. Government bonds were unchanged.
Railroad bonds, strong.
London was again a liberal seller. al
though the foreign market was rather
limited. Nervousness over the Far
Eastern situation seemed to have been
the cause of a more or less popular IL
uuidation abroad. The amount sold to-
day is about 10000 shares, or rather
more than yesterday The only stock
which London bought on balance was
Erie common.
