TIE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

Stock market values were firm in the greater
part Of the day. with small net changes in the
majority OF issues at the close. The early up
ward movement was not accompanied by an
active volume Of dealings but traders. as a
rule. were bullish, while most commission houses
advised their customers TO take position on
she long side, on the theory that prices will
sell at a higher level when the market begins
90 feel the effect Of the reinvestment Of Janu-
airy interest and dividend disbursements AS
= rule an advancing level Of values may be eI-
pected in January. and, as present conditions
underlying the actual worth Of securities are
sound while the speculative situation favors
an upward movement OF prices. predictions of
n bull market in the first month of the year
appear 10 have an excellent chance Of being
fulfilled II seems TO be conceded in all quarters
that the liquidation that developed in stocks
year ago last September, and which continued
for twelve months. has placed the speculative
situation in a far stronger position than ii has
enjoyed in several years. It is believed that
that liquidation saved Wall Street from acute
panic, and that the orderly manner in which
the LIQUIDATION was conducted afforded fnan-
ciers and business men in general an oppor-
tunity to place their affairs in a condition that
would not be seriously affected by the collapse
OF weak industrial concerns and period of in
dustrial reaction.
The railway equipment shares, the local trac-
4ion and gas stocks and the anthracite coal Sc
curities were leading strong features in the
days market while United States Steel pre-
serred. Amalgamated Copper, Atchison. South
ern and Union Pacific presented the chief in
stances Of weakness. In the last half hour the
whole market was heavy. and part Of the early
Improvement was lost, as. for instance, in Lack
awanna which. after enjoying a maximum ad-
vance Of ~ points, closed at a net gain of only
points. Delaware and Hudson advanced to
1tis and closed al 1884,. Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit closed ! point under its best price. In the
car aud locomotive building shares. American
Locomotive gained points. while American
Car and Foundry, on active buying, advanced
TO 2osa for the common and 6S1a for the pre-
ierTed the latter closing at net gain Of l
point. The American Car ard Foundry Com
yany has a working capital of S15000000 and
the conservatism of its management and the
known earning power Of the company naturally
encourage the holders OF the preferred stock
sn the value OF their investment. AS a result
or the weakness in the late dealings there were
q few more net losses than gains at the close.
Call money ruled at 3aa to 4 per cent, while
sterling exchange remained at unchanged quo
tations. An interesting and significant feature
of the money market was the easier tendency in
commercial paper. Since Friday night the local
banks have gained over 81, 100000 from the Sub
Treasury.
