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 NEW YORK STOCK AND BOND UST Railroad Stocks.

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.
