STOCKS and BONDS
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Dec. 9-Deflation of prices in the stock market made fur ther insistent headway today, encom- posing a number of high class shares as well as many others whose intrin- sic values seem to have become more or less conjectural.
 The further reaction lacked eXplan- ation. other than that offered by the various factors and influences which have eifectually served their purpose ever since signs of commercial aud industrial depression became too ap- parent to be ignored.
 Unlike the previous session. how ever, when professional shorts held undisputed sway, a considerable pro- portion or today's selling evidently had It's source in the further 'read- JustmenJ" or cIosIng out of extensive speculative accounts.
 Support of the usual market leaders was lukewarm at best. while specL- lative issues of the several varieties
 
 sories, chemicals, food issues and shippings registered net lCsseS of ! to 65s points.
 Dividend paying Ians and sCcond- ary transportatIols fell 1 to . oints Southern Pacific being subjected to almost continuous pressure, steels and equipment suffering to like ex- tent. while oils, especially the MeNl- can division, lost 2 to points w;jIi nominal recoveries at the heavy close. Sales amounted to 100000 shares. | Scarcity of time funds again fea- tured the money market. all demand loans. however. at ' per cent. EX' change on London and Paris was not materially altered, but rates to east ern Europe, especially Greece, con tinued to weaken, while remittances to China reflected another violent break in the London silver market. { Aside from its general heaviness which extended to Liberty issues, the bond market was dull and featureless the foreign group alone showing steadiness. Total sales (par value) 15,750,000. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call.
