Florence and Combination Fraction recovered
"a points each, while Daisy showed a loss Of
/ point.
George Wingheld was interviewed lately in
Tonopah regarding runlors of an impending
consolidation of Goldhed properties outside Of
the Goldfeld Consolidated estate and he said
he could give out nothing for publication, es-
peciaIly as he knew nothing himself 1t is
generally believed in Tonopah that two OF the

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-Today's stock market
bore the face of it evidence Of important
speculative liquidation Conjecture was a good
deal divided as to the course of this liquida-
ton, but there difference of opinion
as to the fact. The apparent disregard on the
prices of selling lent pausibility to q faYorite
supposition that the holdings sold out had been
acquired at an early period Of the advance IN
prices The formation of a powerful stock
market pool was rumored at an early period IN
the session. having among its several purposes
to demonstrate a return of confidence In the
financial outlook with the object of eultiVating
the conditions which should conduce to sue
cess in proposed financial hotatins and in
general way, to give a start to the restoration
OF conditions which had been impaired by the
financial upheaval of last year The stock
market has given almost constant indication
ever since that period of fostering protection
against any factors of depression and encour-
agement and Indictment for buying ana al
Vancng prices. The exact meaning OF the pres
ent liquidation is difficult to determine. Ihat
it is prompted by fears Of a backset in the pro
gress is not believed. 1t is attributed rather
to a recognition that the advance in prices mas
been carried beyond a point warranted py
progress in recuperation Of business even III
its most favorable aspect as this point mas
been dwelt upon with increasing urgency by
The financial world. The steady substantial ap-
petite of capital for investment which is a
present feature of the situation testihed TO
the completion of the work of restoring con-
fidence. The rise in money rates has done
away with The urgency OF bankers TO iehu
money which was a positive force for a long
time in injecting resources into the stock mar
ket.
Rrnors of the Illness of E. H. Hartman, al
though authoritatively denied, had some SIMS
ter effect on values which seems unavoidable
in view of the almost fantastic extent to which
Mr. Harrimans alleged single activities nave
influenced the rise in almost every department.
