New York, Jan. 1. --Tightness In the money market, with the year-end preparation for the annual settle ments, has put a stop to speculative activity In stocks and has halted the advance in prices.

The great interests among banks and capitalists tire believed to stand be hind the market and their support is attributed to pinna for flotation of new bonds after the first of the year and desire to improve the January 1 showing of Investment values. It Is deemed also probable that there has been some speculative accumulation and bidding up. of prices with a view to meeting a hoped-for January de mand for stocks. ...
