STOCK LIST. Demands of Labor on Union , Pacific System Also the Cause of Disquiet. NEW YORK, Dec. 29. Speculative sentiment today showed greater sensitiveness to the dis turbances in the call money market than was the case last week, when a 15 per cent rate was practically ignored. Today, when money opened at 10 per cent, with, an advancing tendency, prices broke sharply all around. The rate touched 12 per cent in tho morning and then relaxed, followed by a rally In the stock market, but when money rose again to 15 per cent, prices of stocks promptly declined. The altered sentiment toward the money market is believed to be due to the strict attitude as sumed by the banks and to the calling of loans. The largest selling of today was attributed to the oools. which were credited with causing last week's advance in prices, and which are believed to have received renewed warning against expansion of credits for speculative purposes at present. There is a strong party in the market which operates on the theory that the closeness of money Is all that prevents prices of securities from advancing again. This party also enter tains the conviction that the turn of the year will witness a prompt relaxation In the money market, owing to the amount of money accu mulated to pav dividends and Interest. Even this party is wary of a possible squeeze in money before the expected return to ease, and there la. besides thlp. a widespread Bentlment by which another speculative party that other considerations than the. supply of credits are operating to hold back prices. The belief that there will be a prompt relaxation In money rates after the end of the year also is by no means universal. The foreign exchange re quirements will draw large amounts of gold from our market upon any relaxation In money rates. The demands of labor on the Union -Pacific system are the cause of disquiet in the market. The violence In Amalgamated Copper was sup posed to be due to authoritative denials of last week's rumors of an agreement to arbi trate by the contending copper Interests. In the early market there was some effort to con test the decline and a later show of strength by Sugar had some sentimental effect on the general market, but the reactionary tendency persisted and overcame all resistance. A trans fer of $300,000 to New Orleans today Jkept at tention fixed upon that source of drainage of New York reserves. Tho bond market was Irregular. Total sales, par value. $2,030,000.

I5ENVER, Dec 29. It has just become known that a secret meeting of delegates from lodges of the Ancient Order of For esters In Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming and Utah has been in session for several daye past, with Intervals of adjournment, and that at these meetings a new organ ization of Foresters was formed under the title of the Modern Order of Foresters. It was thought that the disaffected element in the order In this section had been pacified through the visit West of High Chief Ranger Hays, of the Atlantic di vision, for several months, and the an nouncement of the formation of the new body came as the explosion of a bomb shell in the camp of the old members. The new order's movements will be more particularly advanced In the Western States. ILLUSTRATION NO. 1. "The Oldest Trust Company In Oregon."
