NEW YORK. Dec. 10. The stock market
maoe snother struggle today against the
tendency to reaction, but uitinmieiy suc-
comoea and yielded to a lower level. Net
declines ran to between one and two points
or many prominent stocks. An Important
Influence in alscouraglng the enorts to
hold the market was the heavy and per
sistent liquidation lu United fc) tales bteel
preferred. The fact that much of tins
selling was attributed to ftttsourg account
gave it a ainster Import to the speculative
mind, owing to the special facilities of In
formation as to trade condition at that Iron
anu steel center. The weekly review by
the leading authority In the trade was als)
regarded aa decldeuly unfavorable owing
lb the continued accumulation of stocks of
pig Iron notwithstanding a contraction In
production in the last two months unpre
cedented for suddenness and amount. The
increase In accumulation la said to apply
to the southern furnace as well aa to the
northern, notwithstanding the heavy sales
reported In the southern market. Tha ex
istence of a better current demand for
pig Iron failed to offset the sftect of this
unfavorable showing as did the favorable
report of the better tons of the market
for structural steel. United States Steel
preferred ran oft three points In the nnaj
dealings thus deciding the tons of tha mar
ket wnlch had been wavering and uncer
tain up to that time.
Tha furtoua speculation In Brooklyn
transit continued but served rather tq
cause distrust than to foster sn advance
owing to a lack of authoritative Informa
tion of any substantial grounds for the
buying of this stock. The stock opened
at a decline of 3 to 4 points and after num
erous fluctuations to 63 fell back to the
lowest and closed there.
The publication of the briefs filed by tha
defendents In the Northern Securities case
brings Into th near perceptive tha pend
ing conditions In that case after the argu
ment to be heard next Monday. There la
a general feeling that thla decision may
have an overshadowing effect on the secur
ities market.
The danger of money flurries before the
and of toe year, while preparations are
making tor the annual settlements, also
comes up for consideration. The summary
of tetuins made by national banks
throughout the country as of November 17
Is not altogether reassuring. With an In
crease In individual deposits over last rear
of nearly tvW.Ouo.UiO the total cash held by
tha banks shows a shrinkage of over $14.
OOu.OOO while the loan Item haa expanded
nearly $122,000,000. Compared with the con
dition at tha time of the previous call on
September 9 of this year there la ahown
an Increase In Individual deposits of nearly
$J0,0u0,0tiO and In United States deposits of
over $12,000,000. Notwithstanding a contrac
tion In loans of upward of $14,000,000, the
cash holdings of the banks have declined
for the same period $34,770,249. In the Items
due to other national and stats banks snd
trust comcanles there la, however, a fal
ling off of upward of $b0,000.000 since the
September statement, it was not until
near the close of the market that the sum
mary waa published of tha domestic export
for- November. These show an increase
over November Of last year of $34,787,24$.
owing to the unprecedented value of tha
cotton exports which reached nearly $t8,
OuO.OOO. the largest ilgure for any month In
the history of the country. The persistent
Inward movement of gold which waa sup
plemented again today needs no other ex
planation. The stock market closed rather
irregular but near the lowest of tha day.
The tone of the bond market waa easy.
Total sales par value were $J,6O6,000. United
States 2a declined V per cent on th last
call.

points to an advance f 2 polnfa. the de
cline being In sympathy with disappointing
cables, which Induced liquidation by longs.
Almost Immediately, however, the market
waa rallied by a renewal of ball support and
rvixiris mat nonnern spinners have been
buying very freely recently snd with some
outside buying orders th market was ad
vanced until near th 'end of the first
twenty minutes price wer net 4 points
higher. The advance was the signal for
considerable bear pressure, and as the mar
ket started downward rumors wer circu
lated that a strong bear clique had been
formed In th theory that th continued
bull movement Is offsetting in the populsr
mind th government small crqp esti
mate, when It was found that damsnd In

ths port movements show a subsiding ti n
dency and th accumulation of stocks at
the Interior towns is believed to point to a
good Increase In the week's visible supply
figures. Notwithstanding these figures the
market showed great stubbornesa under
pressure. At one time, lust before mid

CATTLE The supply of cattle was not
very large this morning, but.. as Cnlcago
wa quoted slow and weak, buyers did l ot
take nold here with much life and, while
prices were not so much lower, trading
was slow. The bulk of the early, arrival
was disposed of In fairly good season, but
It waa late before a clearance waa made.
There were about twenty-five cars 4f
corn-fed steers Included In th receipts
and the, market was very slow, with th
tenoency or Buyers 10 near 10 luaraw.
Some of the cattle were of good Quality
and flesh, but still even those were not as
active as they might have been. Th mar
ket could ptobabiy best be described by
calling It slow and steady to a little lower.
the greatest change being oa the unde
sirable grades.
There was a good demand for the better
grades of cows snd heifers and such kinds
could be quoted steady and in soma piacea
sales . were made that looked a little
.stronger, especially than yesteeday's late
market. Cannera also held about steady
but ths medium kinds dragged and In most
cases were a little lower. Packers do not
want the corn-feds unices they ar good,
and aa a result ths half-fat kinds sell to
very poor advantage.
Bulls, veal calves and stags sold generally
steady. There were not many on sale and
the prices paid were not enough different
to b worthy of mention.
The atocker snd feeder market was also
slow and if anything price were a little
lower. Something very desirable might
have commanded, steady prices, but that
kind were very scare. The general run
were certainly s,ow sale, with th feeling
weaker.
The run of western range cattle was vary
small this morning and in fact there were
not enough to make a fair teat of the mar
ket. As a general thing they fluctuated
'about the same a noted above for th na
tives. Representative sales?

SHEEP There was another moderate run
of sheep here this mon.lug and th market
held fulty steady with yesterday. Ther
was very little good stuff on sale, but such
a was offered could safely be otioted
stesdy with yesterday. Half fat stuff of
cours ts neglected every day and sells at
very uneven prices and Is considerably
lower for the week. The best grades may
be a little lower than a week ago, but still
tne decline la not very serious.
Th feeder market wa about steady
today. Trading was not very brisk, but
still th demand seemed to b about equal
to tne supply snd practically all the de
sirable grades sold In fairly good season.
