weeks currency movement gave no prom ise of anything but a weak bank state nent. The weeks absorption by the sub treasury of $2,743000 has been supple mented by a small movement on balance to the interior on regular express move ment The indicated cash loss, therefore, rises over 5000 000, or considerably more than the surplus existing last Saturday. IL will be seen that these various factors offered no great promise for money re- lief. The high rates for money at the end of the week, however, have undoubtedly turned some interior supplies this way, and there have been receipts from Can ada. The rise In sterling exchange was regarded as significant Yesterdays new supplies of money in London resulting from the exchequer bond redemption are mostly in the control Of the Bank or England, and it Is not expected that they will be more than sufficient to correct the weakness of tho reserves of that insti- tuition, which ms been abnormal for some time past. Exchange at Paris and at Berlin also moved against London today indicating the continued pressure from those sources upon London Wnlch will lessen the probability of that mar ket surrendering gold.
 While the tone of the stock market con- tinued to show remarkable resistance to the money situation, the volume of deal ings showed some contraction. The con spicuous upward movements were also in special stocks Amalgamated Copper was especially strong with a further advance in the price of metals and other industrials interested, and copper moved in sympathy. The rise In Peoples gas was due to reports of an agreement With the municipal authorities. Tennessee Coal was under Influence still of the supposed contest for control.

Cables were without special feat ure, and trading seemed largely in the way of evening up accounts ill preparation for the census report at midday, which was expected to show about S.450,00 bales ginned to December 1. There was considerable liquidation by old longs who feared that the report would show more cotton ginned in some states than had been allowed for the same states by the recent government crop estimate, and with private cables reporting English spinners better supplied with raw cotton than previously estimated, the market gradually sagged off to a net decline or 70110 points. Wall street bull support was forthcoming around 1920 for March, and toward midday the market firmed up to a shade over the closing prices of yester- day with March quoted at 12.2 just be- fore the census report was issued at 2 o'clock The report was followed by ac- tive liquidation, and while Wall street bulls supported on a scale-down, the de- cline caught stop-loss orders and the mar ket closed easy.

MONEY MARKET VAS
 KEENLY DISCUSSED New York Stock Market h.
 clined to FeverishnesS GOVT BOND DEPOSITS
Will Secretary of the Treasury De posit Them in the National Banks? stringeney In the Money Mar
 ket-Move Against London.

New York, December S.-There was a good deal of excited discussion of the money market conditions today, and the stock market was inclined to feverishness from time to time. Nevertheless there was variety of vigorous speculative movements and no serious damage to values was shown, even at the weak points in the market. There was very persistent conviction that the Secretary of the Treasury was about to deposit government funds in the national banks; or to take other measures which would relieve the stringency of money in New York. There was some disappointment apparent upon the opening of the stock market that no announcement was await ing the operators in the open market when they came down to business today. Later 1t was asserted with l%reat positiveness that announcement would be made in Washington at 1 o'clock of the action to be taken. After the cabinet meeting at Washington when Secretary Shaw denied that any action had been taken or was immediately contemplate, there were again some signs of disappointment amongst speculative operators. but this again passed and prices stiffened up again. The money market itself was less severely stringent than yesterday It was supposed that this was due to- the influ- ence of the common expectation that ac- tion by the treasury was to be taken today.
 The banks today made larger offerings of funds at the stock exchange than yesterday although the renewal rate was commonly 20 per cent as compared with an opening rate of IS per cent yesterday. By midday the rate had fallen considera- bly and worked below 15 per cent before active operations were over for the day. As Fridays loans carry over until Mon day, this relaxation was regarded as the more significant. The rates for foreign ex- change moved up again and put an end to talk of engagements of gold for im- port. The preliminary estimates of the

Gilbert & Claws Market Letter.

Prices in the English market gave no indication of either bullishness or bear ishness today, but were about as expected.
 The fluctuations in our markets were unimportant up to the issuance of the census figures of cotton ginned to nrst instant, which showed s,6S4, 900 bales This was rather more than expected, and caused a decline of about 20 points. At the decline good buying appeared and offerings were well taken.
 Spots in New York were unchanged and telegrams from the ports and the ip- terior reported the spot situation hrm Galveston wired that a large part or the 100000 bales in stock at that point was firmly held, and that 1t would require a decline of half cent to one cent per pound to dislodge any of 1t.
