NEW YORK STOCK LETTER.
NEW YORK. Dec. 12.—The speculative
lcnrnnd for stock* seemed to he complete
ly paralysed today and confidence entirely
departed from all of those who were such
~iger buyers up to a week ego at prices
r above three prevailing today.
The only buyers In evldenc* were those
who had timt sold, mostly bear operators
who went short of the market and then
bought to cover at the Inviting profits ac
crued on the subsequent declines. Buy
ing of this character caused occasional
feverish rallies from the violent declines.
But the selling was constantly renewed
on the rallies nnd the fell touched new
levels nt each renewal. Prices hardly
as low todny aa the low price#
touched on Thursday, but owing to th#
violent recoveries on that day and the
we«k closing of today at the lowest
B ribes, the range of values la subatan-
ally lower tonlsht than It was on lost
Thursday night. The most striking fact
In t* »:iy's market was the utter lack of
*v*|*tlng power In tho market. Change#
in conditions of the pronertte# affected
dr In the geheral conditions of finance,
commerce nnd Industry were not aug-
•jested by any of the headlong sellers.
Money on mil loaned down to 2 per
c.-nt. In the late market, and pressure for
funds did not seem to be the motive for
lllng any stock*. The comparative Im
munity or the hlghrrade Investment
bonds from weakness was an evidence of
this. There can be no dispute that the
enormous prestige acquired by the loudly
proclaimed leadership of lart week** raid
in the stock market gave a gr* n power
of Intimidation to the renewal of the
same methods today and rauoe«f
