MOVEMENT AS 4
 WHOLE NOT LARGE
Few Points of Strength Ap- pear-Steel Shows Eff
 feet of Pressure

New York, December 29.-A few points of decided strength appeared in today 8 stock market. Today's movement as a whole was not large. In the forecast of the day the list moved uncertainty with intermittent periods of heaviness. Reading, Lehigh Valley, St. Paul, Union Pacific and United States Steel in par ticular showed the effects of pressure eX- erted by, the bears in the expectation of continuing the decline of yesterday. But stocks showed the same disinclination to move far in one direction which they have displayed so often during the last few weeks Before noon a general re- covery had set in, and the list developed increasing strength as the day progressed,
 At the close the tone was strong.
 The firm tone of the latter part of the day apparently was due in part to the demand from the short interest. The heaviness which developed yesterday en- couraged the bears to extend their oper- ations today The short interest was eX- banded considerably, and when the usual week end covering was begun prices rose The course of the market encouraged op- erations for the long account and trading became broader and more active on the upturn.
 The stocks which showed pronounced strength were issues which seldom take a prominent part in trading.
 Rock Island preferred rose points and New York Central nearly as much The advance in the latter stock was at tributed to advantages which it was ex- pected would result from the projected consolidation of the company with con trolled lines Peterborough Metropolitan stocks and bonds developed strength, ow- ing to the belief that the company would receive additional subway franchises as a result of the negotiations with the mu- nicipal authorities now under way. Amer ican preferred, figured largely in the dealings at rising prices f)r a time, the demand being stimulated by reports that some action nigh, be taken soon In re- gard to the deferred dividends on the stock. Macxay companies was decidedly weak. although it recovered most of it's loss of Az points before the end of the day.
 Conditions in the money. market were of unusual interest OWlllS to tie i'Oe eiiN' this was the last loaning day of the year. There was no hint of the year end furry which is often experienced. Call money did not rise above 1 per cent as com pared with jer cent on the last loaning day of 1910 In Berlin from 12 to 70 per cent was paid.
 The weeks known movements of mon ey point to a cash gain by the local banks of s1O,0Oo to $15,000,0oO a condition almost unprecedented at this period or the year. Virtually all of this money comes from interior points, having been deposited here in expectation of stiffer money rates at the close of this. week or early in the coming year.
 The bond market was firm. Wapash 4s and local traction bonds were higher. Total sales par value $SQf, ,ooQ.az-ss-.

MERCHANTS EXPECT HEAVY BUSINESS Dull During This Week But Improvement Is in
 Sight

Trade during a large part of this week has been very quiet on Morris avenue, which is usually the case during the time intervening Christmas and the New Year. However, if the weather is favorable, the merchants are expecting a heavy business on the opening of January.
 There were d number of heavy arri- vals on the thoroughfare yesterday, amns which were large shipments of poultry and produce, and several cars of grain. There seemed to be full supply of the various commodities, but outside of the egg market, business was comparatively light. Prices for eggs range from 30 tp B cents @ dozen. Hens and flyers are offered at 10 and b cents a pound.
 No changes were effected in any of the markets during the days business, as will be seen in the following list:

and insisted on going in today, though
