Market Closed Weak.
New York. Dec. 12.—The speculative
lemand for stocks seemed to be com
pletely paralyzed to-day and confidence
entirely departed from all of those
who were such eager buyers up to a
week ago at prices far above those
prevailing to-day.
The only buyers In evidence were
those who had first sold, mostly bear
operators who went short of the mar
ket and then bought to cover at the
inviting profits accrued on the subse
quent declines. Buying of this char
acter caused occasional feverish rallies
from the violent declines. But the
pelling was constantly renewed on the
rallies, and the fall touched new low
levels at each renewal.
Prices hardly got as low to-day as
the low prices touched on Thursday,
but owing to the violent recoveries on
that day and the weak closing of to
day at the lowest prices, the range of
values is substantially lower to-night
than it was on last Thursday night.
Xo Resisting Power.
The most striking fact in to-day’s
market was the utter lack of resisting
power in the market. Changes In
conditions of the properties affected, or
in the general conditions of finance,
commerce and industry were not sug
gested by any of the headlong sellers.
Money on call loaned down to 2 per
cent, in the late market, and pres
sure for funds did not seem to be the
motive for selling any stocks. The
comparative immunity of the high
grade 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 last

week’s raid on the stock market gave
a great power of Intimidation to the
renewal of the same methods to-day
and caused widespread timidity, grow
ing into terror amongst the trading
class of holders. There was an ex
pectation again that the Northern Se
curities decision was imminent and
this helped to depress stocks. There
was revived discussion also of the un
settlement of values threatened by the
effort to establish federal pontrol of
railroad rates.
Decreased Exports.
The heavy fall in value of November
exports of agricultural products, reach
ing $17,727,696 for all products, was a
minor cause of depression especially
with a renewed advance in the price
of sterling exchange, and the mooted
question of a further export of gold.
Prices on the curb were as violently
disturbed as or. the exchange, the
slump in green Consolidated Copper in
that market rivaling the break in
Amalgamated Copper on the exchange.
But the day’s losses in stocks of all
classes, including Standard railroad
and industrial properties, runs all the
way from 2 to over 6 points. The
tone at the closing was as weak as
at any time during the day.
Bonds were weak in sympathy with
stocks. Total sales, par value, $5,340,-
000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

GREETING.
Qh! how lovely it is to ride
j a a palace car so dignified,
Lounging around in luxu
rious ease,
Building your castles as you
please
Unmolested; no fumes to
choke,
Rain of cinders, or grime
of smoke;
Now-a-days people appre
ciate
Every comfort small and
great
Reason compels you to un
derstand
SOUTHERN PACIFIC is best
in the land.
