NEW YORK, Dec. 2S-The organized
speculation. in control Of the stock mar
tions today by buying stocks and putting
up prices In face of rates for call money
at lOO per cent and above. Large amounts
ITO pei, cent and funds were placed out
long as money could be be had at at these se
be- Of the 6on1 ed nG
on mar gin and they were paid rather
than sell out stock holdings. They were
Pa Pala also ON the assumption that the
hlgh rate may hold or even be exceeded
on the remaining day of the week.
,.Ih1e Inc argument was heard among specu-
latiye operators that, this year the rate
the day or two until the end of the
year on the prospect that prices would
nkely advance In larger proportion than
tne daily amount of interest represented
at this rate. 1t was asserted with eager
enthusiasm also that these few remain
ing days of stringent money would offer
tne only opportunity for securing stocks
at the present level of prices. Such was
the spirit that dominated an eXtraordln-
ary stock market which ignored condi-
tons that have been the signal for a
panicky unloading of securities in the
past experience of the stock exchange.
There was something of a scramble
10 unload STOCKS during the early trans
actions in the market owing to an ap-
prehension that it would be found i'm
possible TO borrow money on any terms.
Probably the liquidation thus effected
caused some relief In the money ten
sion.
The extraordinary interest rates also
mad their effect in bringing offerings
into the market from many unexpected
sources. Some banking funds were made
available from outside sources. The
strictly local character of the stringency
IS remarkable feature of the episode
Money on call at nearby cities continues
TO rule at not over q per cent.
1t was broadly intimated that the treas
ury department would adopt a tolerant
attitude toward the reserve requirement
of the banks during the existence of any
crisis in the history of the money market
ana ana It was the general supposition thar
the banks were availing themselves Of
this implied permission to encroach liber-
ally on their reserves. There was an
urgent demand for time loans for the
shorter periods as well as for call loans
and the commissions demanded to secure
60 and 80 day funds made the rate equiva-
lent to per cent.
1t was alleged that the banks had con-
certed in an agreement to keep the rate
of standing loans at a fixed figure until
next week. The late relapse in the money
rate to per cent was of no Significance,
most demands having been satisfied be-
fore that rate was touched, but the spec
ulatlVe confidence was maintained and the
market closed active and strong.
Anaconda Mining was the sensational
feature and other copper and smelling
stocks were conspicuous, but such stocks
as Union Pacific and New York Central
kept up their reputation Of standards in
the days trading.

Many of the big holders were discouraged
by the days statistics and sold heavily
during the early part of the day. This
selling was later augmented by free Of

traders A number Of bulls gave active
support to the market late in the day and
materially checked the decline The May

the day caused by bidding made by shorts
This, with the demand from the bull
side, caused a rally in May to 87bc, where
1t closed 14c lower.
A bulge of 21hc in the prices of old
December corn, followed moderate cover
Ing by shorts in that delivery. The vol
ume Of G trading was not large. May
closed 1s@Ac lower at 44h@44Ac.
The feature of trading in oats was an
advance of nearly 1c a bushel in the
price of the December delievry, due chief
ly to covering by local shorts. May
closed unchanged at 3l%Q32c.
