Influence of Shaw's Relief Measures
Thus Far ntimental-American
Stocks Firm in London.


Ep'cla! Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, December 12.-It was gem
orally recognized yesterday that such re-
taxation as appeared in the rates for loans
on call mainly of sentimental char
acter and that this was the case was dem
onstrated in the-renewed activity in that
market today. OF course, thus far Secre-
tary Shaws various money market relief
measures have exercised nothing more than
the sentimental influence already men,
toned
There was very general shifting about
OF loans on call today mainly in connection
with number of large dividend and other
payments which will mature with the
course of the next few days. These in
clude the dividends of the Standard Oil and
Consolidated Gas, and also the payments
against the New York Central stock issues
Consequently, 1t was not strange that the
rates for call loans should have avera ged
today well above yesterdays mean figures.
Up to this morning the banks had in
Cured a loss in actual cash in their trans
actions with the sub-treasury amounting to
$4lOOOO The days shipments of cur
rency to the interior were not, however,
IN large volume. Rather harder tendencies
loans. particularly for the shorter periods.
Some slight relaxation occurred in the
rates for Sterling exchange.
Stocks in London.
The London stock market was steady in
all departments. mainly for the same
son that was similarly effective yesterday,
namely, on the idea that the treasury
money market relief measures would avert
the necessity for further shipments of gold
to America. Discounts were somewhat
firmer in the open London money market.
however, being Influenced by expectations
of immediate Withdrawals of gold from the
Bank of England for shipment to South
America amounting to 100000 pounds.
Gold to the amount of 100000 pounds is
due to arrive in London on Monday, and it
was believed that the Bank of England
would secure practically the whole of the
sum. At any rate. there was no discus
sion whatever there to any likelihood
of an advance in the banks discount rate.
American stocks were firm in the Lon
don market in common with the other de-
partments and foreign houses continued
their buying operations in this market,
taking upward of 10000 shares on bal
ance.
relating to any particular security was
that with regard to the issue of 100000
additional shares of Great Northern pre-
