NO SUPPORT FORTHCOMING List Is Closely Affected in Sympathy AVI th Course of Reading Close Is Almost Demoralized and -Losses Arc Heavy. NEW YORK. Jan. 23. The mixed tone of peculation on today gave place in the late dealings to another sharp selling movement, leading, up to the weak and disorderly clos ing. The support accorded the market dur ing the early part of the day had some ef fect In reaasurlne sentiment and in dtMlpat- lng the effect of the forced liquidation of Saturday In a few of the most speculative stocks. It became evident as the day prog ressed that the cessation of the acute pres sure of Saturday was not resultant of any large renewal of speculative demand for stocks. The wavering fluctuation or tne day were followed by general declines under the pressure of widely extended liquidation. The motive for the buying In the late stages of the mcst sensational advances in the mar ket have been almost enttrely limited to the belief that there was other buying on a large ecale. Last week's determination, which was clinched by. the sharp drop on Saturday, that Important selling Instead of buying was going on, deprived the specula tive enthutlasm of Its principal motive With the reaction fairly In force, attention was readily given by the speculative element to suggestions of an unfavorable purport which have passed unheeded for many weeks. although quite aa obvious as they are today. For Instance there was a sudden recrudescence of apprehension over threatened legislation and legislative investigations. The move to Investigate the state banking department at Albany was dres-ed out with many alarming possibilities In Its effect on the banking po sition in New York City. A fear waa ex pressed that a contraction of credits will fol low. The resolution In the House of Repre sentatives at Washington to Investigate the combination of subsidiary railways under the eentrol of the Pennsylvania had a similar effect. The tone of the reports from railroad traf fic officials was slightly more conservative than of late the ealng of the car situation being admitted. The expanding tendency of the loan account of New lork banks ana the seeming Imminence of an outward move ment of gold caused some effect on the re cently prevailing confidence over the eaclng tendency of the money market. Interior banks, which placed loans In New York on their own account during the money stringency, arc now calling these loans for redeposlt In New York banks, and this Is. said to be a prim faetor In the large expansion last week of the loan account of the New York banks. The stock market was cloeely affected In sympathy with the course of Reading. Whll that sr&ck was strong, the general list held well, and Union Paclflc. St. Paul. Amalgam ated Copper and the Rock Island Issues made Mine anrresslve show of strength, the last named on the favorable report of net earnings for December. When the lightness of the speculative demand for stocks had been dem onstrated and the downward course or prices establlsh-d. the decline became rapid. Stop loss orders were uncovered and speculative holdings were thrown over with precipitation. The market closed In a state of peml-demor- aMzarton and at net declines running between" 2 and ever 6 point for all of the most prom! n'eni stocks. Bonds were steady.
