REACTION IN STOCKS
DOES NOT IMPAIR CONFIDENCE
IN THE FUTURE.
Stiffening in Call Loanate' Appar
ent Cause of Selling Specula-
tlon in Union Pacific.
. . s &
NEW YORK, Doc 30. Today's reaction in
stocks received various cxplanaUons, but did
not materially Impair the confidence rwlth
which the outlook upon the new year Is re
garded. The stiffening' of the call loan rato
during the day wns the most immediate and
apparent causo of the celling. The surprising
fact Is that the rise In call money was de
ferred until practically the last day of tho
year on the Stock Exchange. Loans made on
the Stock Exchange carry over unUl Monday,
and in this case until Tuesday. Preparations
have been making for ,tho4largcst January 1
disbursements in the history of Wall street.
The call loan rate has been apathetic up to
date, and tho maximum rate touched today
was 5 iter cent. Meantime the usual cuU
mates by bankera indicate that, the Inflow of
currency by express has been sufficient to
offset the Sub-Treasury absorption and- leave
a margin of gain of upward of $ 4.000,000.
The cnanges to bo shewn -In-tho lean item of
tomorrow's bank statement are likely, of
course, to be large, owing to the annual set
tlements. It ie not probable that any deep anxiety
over the money market was reflected in the
day's, movement. The steady uplifting of
prices has developed little inclination to eell
steaks up to today, and up to yesterday there
bad been little appearance of trailing for a turn
in the .market. The profit-taking which met
the movement today was the usual result of a
movement of a speculative nature. It served
us an admonition that a too rapid rise In
pricas would have to reckon with selling to
realize. Amalgamated Copper displayed
rather acutely the reactionary effect of the
speculative operations which, caused its' wide
advance of yesterday. The tolling was not
exjdained by news bearing on values in the
general list. There wrc an aggreseive specu
lation in Union Pacific Tho various' move
ments were abandoned on the reaction. Last
prices were not far from the lowest and tho
closing was easy.
"Bonds were Irregvlar. Total tsalos, par
value, $0,620,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

Improvement jn 1905. "
' -t ' - . " . '
.NEW YORK. Dec. 30. Dun's weekly re
view of trade tomorrow will say:
Holiday week" 'brought the customary' ulet
conditions . in. the business " world, inventories1
and preparations for annual scttlomento mo
nopolizing attention except in some' branches
of manufacturer, tvhero deliveries were re
quired. . Severe . storms also Interrupted com
munication and transportation, .particularly at
the West, Vut on the whole the elements were
helpful, for the drouth was broken In the
Pittsburg, region.
.;. Annual reviews indicate that the year has
made a much bettor showing than seemed pos
sible at the outset, -tho second half comparing
Aery favorably; with the flrst six months, and
the amount of business on tho books, in the
leading industries promises still- further Im
provement In 1905. Traffic returns of Decem
ber indicate that gross earnings of the rail
ways were 7.2 per cent larger than In the
previous" year, and foreign Commerce for the"
test week-afc this port shows an Increase of,
$1,543,163 in exports and avery large gain
.of $3,819,245 in Imports, as compared with
1903.
Buoyant sentiment prevails In tho Iron and
steel industry..
Supplies of native hld& are accumulating-,
owing to the liberal movement of cattle, and
.the tone -la-easy, but small stocks' of branded
blues' maintain that department. .
Woolen goods are advancing because of the
upward tendency of raw wool, and purchasers
arc more, willing to place contracts at prcvail
lrgv rates.
Failures this week number' 252 in the."
United States, against 232 last year, and 11
in. Canada, .compared with 17 a year ago.
ENDS BETTER THAN IT BEGAN.
Trade Reports Are. Generally Favorable
- -Wholesale Trade Light.
NEW-YORK, "Dec 30. Bradatreet's. tomor
row jwill . say.:
Distributive trade generally is marking
time, while past results and future prospects
are subjeots of consideration. A period of
marked activity In holiday goods of higher
than usual quality has brought to a close a
year which, because of marked Improvement
in the last quarter, has ended better than It
began and certainly la far better shape than
seemed possible at the turn of tho year.
Wholesale trade Is naturally of the lightest at
this season of stock taking and Inventory, and
stormy weather and tho flurry in raw cotton
have been additional chilling Influences.
Rather lees than the usual annual clearing
falec have occurred because of the notable
absence of stocks of finished goods pressing
for tale. Collections show some effect from
the. recent heavy circulation of money In retail
lines. '
Industry is of notably largo volume for this
season of the year, especially In Iron and
steel and kindred lines of manufacture.
Railway returns are favorable In that in
creased earnings are quite general, and tho
only drawback 1s the wide reports of car
.shortage.
At the West an important feature has been
the breaking up of the WInterwheat drouth.
Prices of metals have hardened this week,
copper advancing to the highest point yet
reached. Wool Is strong and stocks in dealers
hands are the lightest in years.
Business failures in , the United States for
the week ending December 29 number 218,
against 249 lost week and 209 laet year. In
Canada failures for the week number 20,
against 37 last week and IS last year.
Wheat, including flour, exports for the week
ending December 29. aggregate 981.140 bush
els, against 1.0S0.70S last week. 2,015,300 last
year and 4,818.471 in 1902. From July 1 to
date the exporta aggregate 34,748,327 bushels,
against 88,150.786 last year.

Silver Scarce and Price Advances.
NEW YORIv. Dec 30. The recent advance
In. the price of silver calls attention to the
increasing scarcity of the floating supply of
that metal. Bar silver -was quoted today at
61 c an ounce, while Mexican dollars ranged
firm 48c to 48c These rates, it was said,
were merely nominal, and any great demand
for bars" would cause an advance of the price..
Conditions in the silver market are now ?uch
that the. consumer waits on the producer.
The war In the Far Bast, the steady absorp
tion by East India, and this country's in
creasing trade with China are -responsible
experts ay. for . this, very complete reversal
of conditions.

of Inspector Flint, of San Francisco, who
mado two reports on the subject to the
department at Washington. Mr. Hermann

tion of the station in the near future. AH
