Nnw YottK , Dec. 22. The stock market
today showed n fair degree of activity. Al
though at Intervals speculation was weak , no
declines of Importance were recorded , outside
of American Hugar , Canada Southern , lie-nil-
Ing , Distilling & Cattlefeedlna and Chicago
( as , which yielded 1 ' & to 2" ; per ccul. Chicago
( las led the downward movement , the special
weakness In the stock being duo to the fact
that the holdings of the | KIO | which were dis
tributed have not yet found u resting place ,
licadlm ; was depressed by the icpurts that.
the company would bu forced lo raise
money on bonds , or on the coal above
ground to meet , the Interest on the
prt'ferenco Income bonds , lliirllngtini .t
C/tilncy declined 1 per i-enl and the other
leading shares U to ? { per cent. Thu renewed
strength of sterling e.vchangu led to talk ot
go Id e\poits and some of the traders were
frightened Into selling. I'rlces moved up and
down frequently within a narrow ramie until
late Iti the afternoon , when a brisk demand
set lu for both the long and short account.
The result was a recovery all around. Keadlng
was especially active , largo amounts being
taken from 51 H uptou2 > i. American Smrar ,
Mlssouil 1'acllic. Itoek Island and Distilling
and Cattlefeedlng Improved 1 per cent or
more.
The Imylngof the last named wnsstlmiilated
by statements made by James U. ICecne , In
which hu Mated that , he hail made a thorough
Investigation of tlie property , that thu com
pany at no time bad oni'iieu less than 0 per
cent dividends and was now earning al the
rale of about 15 per cent on Its stock ,
Mr. Keenu backed up his views In
regaid to Iho properly by oll'orliig
' i per cent for the quarterly dividends on any
part of tlio capital stock for two years to
come. The bears having been unable to dis
lodge any considerable amount of long slocks ,
took steps to reduce their short lines after de
livery hour and their purchas-'s stimulated
the upward movement In prices.
The street was Hooded with rumors about a
probable Issue of bonds by thegenoral govern
ment for the purpose of strengthening its gold
reserve. These rumors lack conlli-matlon , but
they ii"vortheless had aeeitaln effect on spec
ulation In tbo afternoon trading. Among tlio
specialties , Manhattan was stvong and gained
1 percent. Teun"sseoColl : & Iron fell oil''i
percent , and subsequently recovered on re
ports of forthcoming devofopinonts of a fnvor-
nblu character In regard to tlr.1 property. Oliln
Southern jumped 2 per cent lo 50. The mar
ket , clo-eil llrmer In tone.
The I'ost says : Tlio news that a concerted
effort , wns at fast being made at Washington to
force con-'iilorallim of a silver purchase repeal
bill was not purhaiH geui'i-ally known In Wall
street. If It was , Its reception was marked by
a irood deal of skepticism. Vet It would b. !
dllllcult to overstate tin ) Importance ot such
possible act Ion to all tlio llnanclal markets. It
is easy to dismiss the gold export problem , a * .
a few tlnanclal critics are disposed to do , will
tlie ouhand comment that the current mer
chandise movement o.xplalns it all. This It
most decidedlv > lees not. A child might com
prehend that if our mercbamllse exports wen
vastly larger than they are , or our merchan
dise Imports much smaller , gold exports wotili
be an Impossibility ,
Hut whyexchange can hold at present tig
iiivs In thu face linth of heavy sterling loan !
and a decided turn in the balance of merchnn
disu trade , not even experts in the buslnes-
have satisfactorily explained. In splto of th <
complications of factors at work on the market
kot , no Intelligent observer can doubt that tin
foreign scare over our silver dilemma is at tin
root of the tumble. The sharp recovery It
sterling fiom the last , week's dccllno , was :
plain suggestion of a renewed outflow of gold
unless tins disordered market for oxcbangi
returns to normal conditions.
