NEW YORK, Jan. 2O.-Activity was at
the boiling point in the stock market to-
day detailed analysis of the net
changes of the day reveals liberal
sprinklng of net losses throughout the
list in spite OF the frothy whipping VI. of
prices In the speculative favorites. This
process was conspicuous at the opening
and again at the closing, but was taken
advantage of at both times to market
important lines of stocks and take profits
ont of the market.
The most striking gains in the early
market were much impaired during the
progress of the trading and in some cases
losses were substituted.
The burden of sustaining the market
was thrown upon st. Paul the 3Ss point
rise in which counteracted the realizing
movement which became general after
the appearance of the bank statement
Of the earlier features, Reading rose in
a volatile manner four points to. new
record level. This stock closed again
within a fraction of the highest.
after selling II points higher than last
night. closed ten points lower. Amalga-
mated Copper was also under steady
pressure of realizing and the same was
true of the Pacific and Smelling stocks.
The uneaslness of the market for the
metal came in for consideration in con-
nection with copper and smelling stocks
United States steel preferred continued
its recent strong tone with a two-point
advance, of which it saved more than
half at the last.
The bank statement was regarded as
favorable the gain in cash of nearly S12,-
100000 being rather in excess of the esti-
mates The loan expansion of $205oS, 300
was regarded less favorably but was
considered a fair consequence of the
great animation of the speculation during
the week The firm tone of the foreign
exchange brought in some renewed con-
sideration the question of q future ex-
port movement of gold.
The final slump in Anaconda had a
slightly unsettling effect on the market
which had commenced to recover under
the aggressive lead of the st. Paul
movement.

San Pedro Harbor Notes
The schooners Borealis, Tacoma and
William Bowden, Portland, arrived in the
outer harpor this mornin.
The steam tug Falcon made the start
yesterday for Catalina island with a deck
load of hay. About half way over the
sea became so wild that 1t was deemed
best not to go farther and the vessel
came back, arriving here this morning
ing loaded entirely with shingles. The
captain Veered too far to the east when
coming into the harbor and ran the nose
of the vessel into the mud near Dead
mans island. She was taken off later
when the high tide came along.
The movements of freight from the Pu.
get sound country to San Pedro and
other California ports in the past month
have been so great that vessels could not
be obtained to handle 1t all. The steamer
Umatilla, which left there yesterday, was
obliged to leave several hundred tons
of freight on the wharves because OF
overlooking. The Umatilla has on board
100 carloads of flour.
The Russian bark Isabel Brown fin
ished loading at Portland with 1915
bushels of wheat and was to have sailed
last evening for Grimsby, but was un-
able to on account of not being able II
secure a crew. 1t is hard to get sailors
to ship on Russian vessels on this coast
MeXicans brought the bark into port, but
they deserted almost Immediately after
docking.
The Schooner Geo. E. Billings, which
has been making this port for the last
few years regularly, was loaded with
lumber at Tacoma and will sail tomorrow
for Sydney, Australia.
