NEW YORK, Dec. 26-Further very
large and variegated absorption of
stocks marked todays proceedings on
the stock exchange. The heavy demand
for stocks at an advancing tendency of
prices was a convincing demonstration
or the confidence in values and the
strong hopes for further advances.
There was some apprehension that the
Christmas market would prove to have
been overdone on sentimental con-
siderations, and there was a good deal
of admonition to be heard also in Vari-
Gus quarters of Wall street this morn
ing exhorting to caution and conserva-
tism for the last week of the year ow-
ing to the heavy requirements upon the
money markets and the danger of en-
harrassment to those overcommitted in
speculative ventures.
The rs per cent money rate before
the close gave point to the warning.
But the course of the early market
soon disSipated the apprehensionS that
the Christmas advance was over and
made some account of the warnings of
the conservatives. The money market
seems to have no terrors for the .specu-
lative spirit any longer the stock mar
ket having successfully withstood such
flurrieS in money so many times this
fall that the safety of the position is
felt to be assured.
Speculative confidence continued un-
impaired and there were reported today
perceptible growths in the, outside for
stocks. The profitable character of
by the rapid advance in the rates for
stock exchange seats.
A sale was reported today at $4,000.
and numerous bidders We're said to be
seeking seats with the lowest offering
at $97,500
The aggressive leadership assumed
today by Union Pacific and the United
States Steel stocks was Of large effect
on sentiment.
Copper securities of all kinds were
animated and buoyant The extraordi-
nary movement in Anaconda found its
explanation in the later report of an
enlarged dividend disbursement. Anal
gamated Copper derived direct benefit
from it's large holdings of Anaconda
stock. 1t made it's best price in the
last few minutes of trading. But the
rest of the market was quite sharply
affected by the profit taking on the
days rise which became general after
midday and which was aggravated by
the violent furry in money in the last
hour.
The closing was easy and the days
extreme gains were much impaired.
Bonds We're firm. Total sales par
value $3,225,000.
United States bonds were all un-
changed on call.
