MARKET IS STEADY
AT CLOSING HOUR
Speculative Confidence Re.
stored by Strong Support
at Critical Points.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-There were
few important variations from yes
terday's close in the first transactions
in stocks today. The tone. however,
was perceptibly frmer. Reading was
the strongest of the active issues and
registered a gain of Is.
II a. m.-Organized pressure against
Steel, which fell to TON, kept the mar
ket unsettled for a while, but the
Harrimans and Reading soon cut
loose from this influence, and their
advance ultimately pulled up Steel.
Noon-Although the drain on the
sub-treasury reached 81, 1000. 900 for the
week thus far, money rates were com
p%aratively easy, interior institutions
coming into the market more freely.
Bonds were easy.
1 p. m.-Urgent liquidation was evil
lent in the heavy fall in prices which
occurred after midday. Numerous
stocks sold at the lowest prices for
the past six months. Steel touched
69h, Smelling was off 2, Harvester
and Ore Certificates 4 and Woolworth
5 points.
2 p. m.-Wholesale rejection OF I'M
desirable industrial collateral by
lending institutions produced some
thing akin to Generalization in this
class of securities when forced sell
ing occurred. Declines ran from 2 to
s points. Steel sold down to 6S1a,
Smelling to II, Amalgamated to sos,
Union Pacific to 1877 and Reading 10
1859. Concerted support checked the
decline when the situation appeared
to be becoming serious.
3 p. m.-The market closed steady.
Speculative confidence was restored
in a measure by the undoubted evil
dence of strong support at critical
points. and there was an active buy
ing movement for both accounts,
which lifted many issues a point or
more from the lowest.

PENNSY'S EXPENSES GROW,
BUT REVENUES DECREASE

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 5.-Before
terday Carol NJ. Bunting, the con-
troller of the Pennsylvania company,
showed that of that ON
pany had steadily decreased in the
past decade, despite the general i'm
preston that they had steadily in
creased.
Mr.. Bunting said that the Pennsyl-
vania railroads returns from oper-
atoms on the amount invested in road
and equipment from all sources had
shrunk from 6.54 per cent. in 1900 to
4.16 per cent. in 1911. He also said
the operating expenses of the lines
east of Pittsburgh have increased in
the same period from $S2, COL. PIT to
$3.50, 531. 01S, or SO per cent. In the
same decade, he said, the taxes on
these lines have increased 165 per
cent.
Robert II. Large, general freight
agent, declared that competition and
the value of the service" were the
basis on which his roads made rates.
Distances in many cases must be ig-
nored. One road from one point may
make a rate Of $3.50 to another point,
and another road with a longer haul
might be justified on mileage in
| charging SO, but the second road
must meet competitive conditions and
would be justified in charging only
S1.5O.

new BANK RULE NO
INJURY TO NEWARK
Mo- olIection-Fee' Plan Meets
Approval of Local
Bankers.

The new regulation of the New
York Clearing House Association,
made yesterday, permitting the coll
lection Of checks originating in New
Jersey and four other States free of
charge, will not materially affect
Newark, according to the opinions Of
various bankers today.
The reason for that, the bankers
say, is the fact that for some time
Newark has been a discretionary
city. in which collection charges
were o made. Outside of Newark
and a few other discretionary cit
les it is thought that the new clear
ing house rule will be immensely
beneficial, and that, taking the
statesi in their entirety, the "no-col-
lection-fee" plan will simplify the
banking business and in that way in
crease it.
At a special meeting yesterday the
Clearing House Association voted to
abolish the practise of charging for
the collection of checks from New
York, New Jersey, Massachusetts,
Connecticut and Rhode Island.
The one condition imposed by the
clearing house is that the bankers
in these five States agree to disepn-
tinue their own charges and to make
their remittances the same day they
receive the checks for collection.
The clearing house committee on
inland exchange proposed the new
plan. The vote on the proposition
was SO to 8.
