STOCK MARKET IN A STATE OF HOLIDAY INACTIVITY Hysterics of the Boom Climax Have Disappeared and a Season of Calmness Prevails. By W. G. NICHOLAS. New York, Dec. 23.—The stock mar ket has lapsed into a state of holiday inaction. Transactions have fallen in volume away below the 1,000,600 share a day point. The hysterical symptoms which characterized the market after and preceding the boom climax have entirely disappeared, and in lieu there of reigns a season of calmness and price stability. Quotations have been on a rising scale and there is a signal scarcity of stocks offering. For the past several years there has been a sharp advance in the market the last of December, which the “talent” at tributes largely to a desiie on the part of the great insurance companies to ■wind up the year with a favorable quo tation showing for the investment lines. The rank and file of traders anticipate a similar demonstration this year, and the improvement noted recently may in a sense discount the usual final spurt. Trade conditions are extreme ly favorable in every part of the coun try. and railroads report satisfactory earnings. Nothing to Fear in Washington. The great financial interests con trolling the management of railrdads have reached the conclusion that they have nothing to fear in the way of hos tile Washington legislation for at least another year and possibly a year and a half. Speaking through his Secre tary of the Navy, Mr. Paul Morton, the President has given it out that he ■ m | tfi / 5 AUGUST lIKLMOXr. has no intention of running amuck and attacking Railroad values, and that whatever he does will be for the mutual benefit of railroads and shippers. He, however, makes it plain that he con siders a revision of the laws necessary and serves notice that the l'allroads may as well prepare themselves ac cordingly. In other words, the dis emboweling process will be made pain less, or as nearly so as the Washing ton surgeons can devise. This is cheer ful and intended to be reassuring, but the p'atient upon whom the mutilation is to be practiced cannot be entirely comfortable, although an attempt is made to smile and look pleasant. Pain less eviseration will be a novelty, but Mr. Roosevelt appears to Wave no doubt as to the entire success of the performance. ‘•Wash Sales" and “Lnnndry Work." Manipulation of a stock for its rise or fall would be impossible were It not for resort to the practice of ‘‘wash sales,” or “laundry work,” as it is sometimes called. The more adept In this practice the more successful the manipulator becomes and greater the demand for his services as pool man ager of deals. To "wash” a stock up or down means to so juggle trading therein as to make a market at which the securities can be bought or sold. The practice is a recognized science, and is part of the speculative game on the Stock Exchange. There is a rule of the exchange against it, but the restriction is easy of evasion, and almost a dead letter. The great ma nipulations or deals are almost inva riably engineered by non-members who are therefore exempt from exchange discipline. From within the sacred precincts of his own office the great operator or financier distributes his buying or selling orders to certain members of the exchange who execute them. These orders may, or may not be matched the brokers receiving the orders not being called upon to inquire as to that and not knowing. All that interest* the broker is assurance that there is responsibility behind the or ders. If he has 1,000, 10,000 Or 80,000 Phares of stock to buy he goes Into the market and buys It from whomso ever has the stock to sell. After “Baling Out.” After “baling out" the miscellaneous crowd and finding no stock for sale he is, perforce, obliged to bid higher and higher and higher until he gets what he wants. Some of the stock may bo supplied by the very man or Party for whom he Is working, but ol that he has no knowledge and presum ably no way of finding out. It is not his business to know. It Is oftentimes necessary for the manager of a pool to buy lOO.QoO shares In order to work oft 10.000 shares on balance: or sell 100,000 shares before acquiring 10. MO shares at a desired average figure. Wash trading or laundrylrig Is a part of the game and allhough officially frowned upon, is not regarded by the • leet as entirely Illegitimate. Ability to so handle a market as to make wash trading effectual estubliahe the pleading of the read manager. It murks him as a professional of isur* thau ostial ability and one whoso services are needed in targe flotations. It Is mo “flection on titan Ilk-- Mr. Keene of Mr Ha vemeyer of Mr. HeblK nr Mr, liogcre, ihat they are thoroughly fa* Mititer with every ppMee end feat "t ciarkci maaipwietton. or that they util ise their knowledge to preo*al ad* Von tags h| the giat gains tehees M * one man against the world and every man's hand against his fellow. Kerne's Topper Ileal. Lawson accuses Mr. Keene of having sold 292,000 shares of Copper for H. H. Rogers, William Rockefeller and other insiders of Amalgamated Copper. Ev erybody has known for two or three years that Mr. Keene most successful ly marketed 200,000 shares ($20,000,000) or more for that party, and that he was able to obtain par or above for the securities. He did the job cleverly and to the entire satisfaction of his clients. His compensation was not wholly satisfactory and the deal ap parently left an unpleasant taste in his mouth; not until recently have he and Mr. Rogers resumed former friendly re lations. It was on account of his ex traordinary abilities as a manipulator and great market general that J. Pier pont Morgan picked out Keene to pro tect the Steel stocks during the first year of the history of the big trust and to incidentally unload 1,280,000 shares ($128,000,000) of syndicate stock. For him to have performed success fully that herculean task without re sorting to every known manipulative device would have been an utter im possibility. It was as much his boun den duty to employ to the uttermost his magnificent abilities in that line for the benefit of his clients as it would be for a lawyer to do his best for a client in a court of justice. According to the accepted ethical code of the street, there is nothing in this in the slightest degree to reflect upon the honor of Mr. Keene, and in view of this acknowledged fact it is a little odd that the great market stategist should have been thrown into a spasm of mo- mentary anger over the accusations of the Boston freak. Resumed 4 Per Cent. On Savina*. A majority of the savings banks of New York have resumed the payment of 4 per cent, interest on deposits. With hundreds of millions of dollars in the vaults of the national and state banks earning legitimately not more than 2% to 3% per cent., it seems more than passing strange that the savings in stitutions can afford to pay 4 per cent, on deposits. Great curiosity has been aroused as to how the savings bank can afford to pay this high rate and the query is heard not infrequently: “Are the savings banks managers be coming inoculated with the virus of frenzied finance and departing from the stereotyped methods of conservat ism in the handling of the accumulated surplus of the thrifty multitudes?” With the great banking institutions of the city buying deposits at figures which on their face show a loss the situation is sufficiently serious to in vite unfavorable comment, but for sav ings banks to outbid the other Institu tions for deposits seems almost sinis ter. The action of the savings banks in this respect is being severely criti cised in conservative quarters. Proicrexs of Rook Island. The listing of its preferred and com mon stock on the London Stock Ex change marks another step in the pro gress of Rock Island. The securities of the new company are now in the international list and their market po sition is materially strengthened there by. Large blocks of stock are already held in Europe, and with the improved trading advantages given by the Lon don listing, foreign interest will be in creased. Since the new management assumed control of the property near ly three years ago it has pursued even ly and inflexibly a policy of strict con servatism. Its financial direction has been singularly free from the taint of speculation and It has gained steadily in the estimation of the banking and Investment interests. W. U. nnd Mnckny Consolidation.

Correspondence invited. in the campaign for a consolidation of the Western Union and the MUckay telegraph companies. Leading bank ers have been working on the scheme for several months, their efforts, in deed, dating back from the death of John W. Mackay, although nothing very positive was done until quite a while thereafter, the part of wisdom being not to press young Clarence Mackay too hard in the beginning. Lat terly the Mackay people have presented a rather friendly front to those who have interested themselves in bring ing about a consolidation, and fire list ening with patience and interest to the discussion of various plans which have been hatched up for unification. The main objection raised against the com bination is the expressed fehr that it would precipitate action at Washing ton for a government telegraph sys tem or government ownership of exist ing properties. The latter alternative is not as awesome to the telegraph com panies as might be imagined. Jay Gould always entertained the belief that the telegraph companies would eventually lodge in government control, the only point with him being the price. He was always afraid that, when the time came the government would not make the appraisement high enough to / suit. Four New Subway*. Plans which have been practically approved foreshadow the construction of four additional subways in Greater New York Within the next few years, the improvements to cost between slOl,- 000,000 and $125,000,000. Two of these tubes will be through Manhattan Is land and two will be In Brooklyn. There is to be an East Side subway and a West Side subway to supple ment the one which now extends north and south midway of Manhattan Is land. The people who were at first inclined to compfain about the subway are beginning to like that method of travel and the line is being increasing ly patronized. It is found to be a convenient, safe and pleasant mode of travel, w'ith distinct advantages over the elevated and surface lines during stormy and cold weather. Incidental ly, all the various classes of traction securities are holding firm, although for the present speculative interest in them has measureable subsided. The finan cial plans for consolidation of the sev eral systems promise eventually to establish them on a considerably higher level. WABK & LELAN It'S AVeekly Stock Letter. New York, Dec. 24.—The stock mar ket this week has been rather dull and heavy, caused by the approaching hol idays, and has been more of a waiting one than anything else. Sentiment is a wonderful thing in Wall street. There has been no radical change in the in dustrial and financial situation. Con ditions are still improving. Railroads and industrials are still making big profits and paying extra dividends, and the outlook for next year continues bright. Yet three weeks ago buyers were falling over each other to pur chase stocks from E@lo points above the present level, whereas now no one seems to want them. The explanation is plain. Those who were buyers three weeks ago were not investors, but were small traders operating on slender margins. That more than anything else caused the sharp break in prices and shook them from the market. Mr. Lawson is now out of the way, and has sunk to the dime novel level, and sends fake telegrams to himself and furnishes sensational papers with fairy stories about the market and attempts to pois on him. Asa rule, prices advance In January caused by investment de mands that arises in connection with the Interest and dividend disperses. About $150,000,000 will be dispersed on this account next month, and the larg est part of this will be invested in se curities. Generally all the large life insurance companies go Into the mar ket at that time of the year, and that should hold it up. For the past four months we have been very bullish on the stock market, and advised out friends to buy it, end we see no rea son to change -our mind. Do not for get that prices are a long ways from being inflated yet, and there are many bargains in the market. Because prices have had a set-back and shoe-string speculators have been frozen out, that is no reason to look for a bearish market. Stocks will go much higher, and until conditions ma terially change there can be no genu ine bear market. We strongly recom mend the Steel stocks. Also American Car Foundry. Among the grangers Missouri Pacific and Rock Island look particularly good. Southern roads should have an advance. Louisville and Nashville and Southern Railway will undoubtedly sell higher. We have In formation that A. D. T. (American Dis trict Telegraph Company), which is controlled by the Western Union Tele graph Company, will be put on a 4 per cent, basis. We should not be sur prised to see that stock sell as high as 60 In the next few months.. There Is nothing in sight to scare an inves tor If he will hold stocks long enough. MONEY MARKET. New York.
