RE Ding is CENTRAL
FIGURE OF TRADING
Market Fails to Show Sus~
tanned Strength-Offer-
ings Are Heavy

New York, December GA rise in
stocks which began week ago was car
RED further today with Reading again
the eentarl figure in the movement of
trading. The market failed TO show the
sustained strength of recent sessions. Of
ferings were heavier and the general run
OF quotations revealed few Important al
terations at the close of the DAY.
On the early advance there was keen
bidding for the popular shares, with in
creased outside buying. Phe rise was
utilized for realizing sales, and while
trere was no departure from the more
cheerful point of view recently adopted,
professional Graders were less inclined to
undertake aggressive operations on the
long side.
III connection with the rise in Reading
there were further reports that a segre-
cation plan was under consideration with
the supposed object of bringing the COM
pany into line with the governments re-
quirements. Denial OF this rumor put
damper on bullish speculation in Read
ing, and the recession in this stock was
influential in bearing down the whole
list.
Coppers were helped by reports of bet
ter prices at home and abroad for the
metal. New Haven was consistently
strong and crossed Is, marking a re-
coy cry of nearly 8 points from the low
price reached after announcement that
the dividend had been passed.
With the approaching of the year end
there was a stiffening of call money, but
the rate did not rise above 4 per cent,
ard it was thought that the requirements
for financing with the turn of the year
would be met with greater case than was
expected some time ago. The weeks cur
rency movement indicated gain in cash
by the banks of 100000 o. more.
Bcnds were active and generally higher.
Total sales. par value, S2,s14,00
United States bonds were unchanged

JANUARY NOTICES
MAKE LONGS SELL
Tone at Opening Not Very
Good, But Improves
Later

New Orleans, December 26.-fhe cotton
market today again felt the Influence of
liquidation for long accounts. Selling
was caused by the circulation of Janu-
airy notices. This was the first notice day
fer January deliveries and while tho
total number of notices was not as large
as expected, it was sufficient to drive
a large number of longs out of their hold
ines. 1t was generally estimated that no.
tees for 100 bales were issued and they
circulated until nearly noon before they
were stopped.
The tone of the market in the MORN
ing session was not good, but in the aft
ernoon it improved on the larea mill taxi
ngs for the week. Hester putting them at
10000 bales. against 500 900 this week last
ye, Id $4,000 this week year before
last. Bulls pointed out that taisings for
the season are now 100000 bales larger
than they were a year ago at this time.
This showing brought in a moderate
amount of fresh buying for long account.
The opening was steady and prices were
to points off. Liverpool was closed
and the long side missed the support
thar has been coming from that quarter
recently The holiday in Liverpool alsoi
served to center attentsn on the january
situation In the early trading the de-
cline was wdened to to points. Pre-
dietions that the notices would be prompt
~ stopped caused a small reaction, butt
later, when it was seen that the notices
vert still circulating, prices went Il tc
II points under Wednesdays close. After
the noon hour the decline was checked
ard a partial recovery brought about
The highest prices in the afternoon were
at the close, which was steady at a net
less for the day of 8 to points, january
making the widest decline.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, December 26.-(Special.) AS
expected, the fluctuations of our mari [
after the holiday with Liverpool closed
have been inconsequent and valueless as
a guide to future movement. A small
bushes easily moved prices, but the trade
was Indifferent to quotations A hopeful
feeling persists, based on the refusal or
southern markets to decline when dellv-
cries here are below them.
The days operations were largely local
Reports say that the crop has been well
picked, and IL so the present lethargy will
not be lasting. Notices for. January de-
livery TUESDAY nexD induced some Iiqui-
dalton. The market was narrow with no
feature A similar condition may be ex-
pected tomorrow.

Chicago. December 26.-Crop pros
poets of the winter believed by some
observers to be the best ever known
level. The market closed heavy at a
decline of 2ss to ~ net.
Other leading staples also finished at
loss, corn down z to q to Is, oats
+ to Il to X, and provisions "a to )

According to leading authority gem
eral snowstorms over the greater part
of the winter wheat belt have furnished
ample covering to protect the plant at
present from danger of serious injury
by a sudden freeze, As a result the
condition of.the7 wheat was said to be
all that could be desired, not especially
cold weather being reported anywhere
and yet the temperature was low
enough to put an end to the activity of
insect pest, such as the hessian fly
Faltering of prices for wheat con-
tinued throughout the session. In adj
dition to bear news about the winter
crop, downward impetus came from Ar
gentine adviees of better wheat weather
and much improv edfyields
Big receipts here pulled down corn.
There was temporary firmness at the
outset but after that the buying or
ders We're scarce and all months had
rather sharp descent. Although de-
mand from the east was said to have
been somewhat enlarged shipments this
week remained depressing ly small from
mere compared with arrivals.
Oats gave way with corn. The SELL
ing was largely of July.
Call for provisions turned out to be
so light that the market weakened, not
withstanding higher prices for hogs.
The decline in grain seemed to have
a discouraging effect on buyers
