LEADING STOCKS
 SHOW WEAKNESS Bears Attack Union Pacific. Stanley Investigation Un-
 settled Market

New York. January 1.-The leading Speculative stocks were under severe pressure today and prices fell. After a ! show of strength in the early trading | the market responded to the effects of laggressive bear selling and was heavy lduring the remainder of the day with periods of pronounced weakness.
 H Union Pacific was once more the cen liter of the bear attack and it's recovery |lof yesterday was cancelled by a point |ldecline. The movement in this stock was of the baffling nature which has attract ed so much attention during the last few weeks. As the price gave way the supply seemed to increase and the manipulation of the stock was conducted in such a Iway that traders were unable to discover fhe source of the selling. Various re- |ports concerning the dividend policy of khe company were heard, but they lacked huthentleity and attracted no serious at |kention. Owing to the steady pressure Against the stock the December report |bf earnings Is awaited with unusual in- |kerest.
 Reading also showed pronounced weak XptSS dL tlIfleS d1itl ltil DpllllS- Opdtii7 frn Pacific. Canadian Pacific St. Paul bnd the Copper and Steel shares also kere under pressure. Their weakness ex- brcised depressing effect on the whole List.
 The news from Washington in regard No progress of the Stanley investigation ]Yas accounted a factor in unsettling the narlSet. When the governments suit for
 Dissolution of the United States Steel Evaporation was filed it was assumed in ,he street that the Stanley inquiry there } fter would possess little significance, if hat were not pursued. The vlgor with which the inquiry is pursued was not con 6erning the traders. The question of Prices still plays a considerable part in Estimating the effect of the recent in- srease in the steel business, many sehed-
 les remaining at the low levels estab-

 ant. Receipts from the interior are 4rge enough to indicate another cash
 ain for the week. The Bank of Eng lnd's weekly statement reported con
 derabe increase in gold holdings and
 lower loan reduction.

 A large share of the persistent unload inG in the wheat pit came apparently from a St. Louis trader Values declined rapidly after the floating shortage inter est had been covered and it was. evident that prices for the time being were whip sawed and barren of support
 A stubborn tone developed when the May option touched the S1 level and there were signs that the mark was begged oul Casn wheat in Baltimore was ma teriall under what was being asked in Chicago. This. had a depressing effect and so did statements from Minneapolis that sales of production by the mills were far from encouraging. Early in the ses- sion influences on the whole were Tn favor of the bulls, especially the ap- preaching cold wave and a hard cut in the estimated export surplus of the Ar genuine republic.
 Final trade took place within lsdAc of the bottom point of the session. Be- tween the opening and the close May fuetuated from 99sds1 and sl.ooss6 l.

 Strength of corn was a factor. May ranged from 19ss& 49Ac( to 49lsQf49l4c, witt frst sales hc up at 4912c.
 Scarcity Of offerings led to a sharp ad vance for packing house products. The strength in corn had much to do with keeping short sellers from disclosing their customary hardihood.

Hubbard Bros. X Co.'S Letter

New York. January 1.--(SpeclaL)- A firm, improving market at an advance of a cent from the low point of the year, caused by unexpected good ad- vices from Liverpool and d covering de- mand the Mississippi valley.
 The market closed at the high point with only limited supply offering and the trade looks forward to a sharp improvement in Europe tomorrow.
 There was rather more demand from northern spinners, who have not taken cotton as freely as did the continental spinners earlier in the season. On the advance there was some selling against cotton from southern shippers. but not near enough to supply the demand.
 Little attention was paid to the movement, but many suggested that the continued cold weather would tend to decrease the offerings in Europe. so that Liverpool could be expected to be 5 points higher tomorrow.
