MARKET REPORTS
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Fsasurss Of the Days Dealings in All
The Lending Stocks.

New York, Jan. 3.-The course of to.
DAYS stock market was a succession OF
backinss and a'lings; rejecting s;o the s nn-
ment, which was concerned mostly in the
dealings. Early in the day. factors OF
depression were giyeT; most weight liz the
discussion on the floor of the Stock Elk
change, although the active weakness OF
Northern Pacific probably has az much
effect ON prices in general as any larger
development in affairs. This stock was
the market leader yesterday and those
who bought 1t then on the assurance that
a large extra dividend was to be imme-
diately forthcoming apparently had mis-
gtvings today and sold out.
At the came time the series OF poor
railroad earnings reports for November
aroused grave approximations OF the ulti-
mate consequences to dividend disburse-
ments Of such rate Of inroad on the
net returns. TIE Pennsylvania Railroad
was added to the list to-day. Pennsylva-
MIA earnings reports are always accept
ed as highly representative owing to the
fic, and 10 per cent. decrease In net
earnings Of this road for that reason
ing towards railroad stocks in general.
The Louisville & Nashville showing was
even poorer, the net return being almost
cut In half for NoyembHr; spa , a NV g
the rise in that stock that turned the
market upwards
The rapid easing Of the call loan mar
ket was help to the stock market the
call loan rate went no higher than 10 per
cent. today and from that level receded
earily. This and the evidence In the
weeks cash movement that money had
flowed freely to this center during the
weeks was the latest strengthening infiu,
ence on stocks. The stock market turned
very strong after the estimates of the
currency movement appeared. An ad,
vance IN prices Of refined sugar haa
quite a pronounced effect on sentiment
regarding the commercial and industrial
situation and number Of industrial stocks
became strong, led by American sugar u
self. A further rise in the London price
OF copper was another incentive to the
rise THE tone Of the late advance be-
came as uncertain as had the morning
decline and the erding was easy.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par val
ne. 12,77i 0D. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

Boston Wool Market.

Boston, Dec. 81. 1907.
The receipts Of wool for this week were
4ol1 bales domestic and 15e bales for
eign. against S,45S bales domestic and
5.ho6 bales foreign for the same time last
year.
Remarl-s.-The past week has been cas-
lily the quietest of the year in the local
wool market: but the closing weeks of
the year are rarely active ones in any
commodity market. This is the time of
year for stock taking at the mills. and
that usually means lille machinery and
a small consumption OF raw material
Another factor which must not be lost
sight of is that the openings of duplicate
lines of fabrics for next spring and of
original lines of goods for next fall and
manufacturers have shown their goods
and seen how they are taken, they can
not have much idea OF their needs Of
raw material. The talSings Of wool dur
the uncertainty that exists about the
future of the goods market The sales
IN all cases were of small lots: in some
cases they We're to piece out and in
others that the buyer might know
where to get the Wool if needed Prices

safeguards OF the Australian ballot
we're thrown around il. The return
ing board was absolutely unbiassd
The voters were not solicited, intimi'
dated, or caioled. They were not even
obliged to send in ballot at an.
The result simply speaks for itself
II shows that, among the active work
ers reached by The Tribune, Mr.. TAFT
had more friends for arst choice than
ali the other candidates put together,
including more than 200 who persisted
IN recording themselves for Roosevelt
in spite Of his recent letter of deolin'
alton.
Moreover, the secretary of war has
y .217 out OF 1881 votes for second
choice, or 81 per cent. Then he is
mentioned s25 times as third choice,
or 1e per cent. of the total. These
second and third choices are frst Of
all from the Roosevelt sections, and
then they are spread over the ballots
by those who have other candidates
for flrst choice.
Strong as Second Choice Also.
Thus it will be seen that Taft not
only has secured complete majority
of all the ballots cast but he is also
mentioned enough times as second
and third choice to make assurance
doubly sure.
Furthermore, the secretary of war
has gained strength materially in the
last five months. The Tribune took
a ballot in August, which was prac'
tically identical with that followed up
in January. Practically the same per
sons were appealed to- editors, legis
sIators, congressman, political commit
teemen, and delegates and alternates
to the last national convention.
The clearing of the political sky,
the entrance into the field of Hughes
the final withdrawal of the President
and the issuance of the call for the ma
tional convention combined together
to bring out more votes in January
than in August. Taft has been almost
the sole beneficiary. Stories. were
printed this winter and autumn that
his boom had collapsed. The figures

Representative James A. Hamill also
from Jersey City, was chosen for the

"My colleague, Mr.. League, last Mon.

could continue Mr.. Sherman New

laughter: II must take the point Of or

There were some demands that Mr..
