Today's cxtrem.-ly I irregular unit uneven stock market ma.i a considerable show of strength and of a fair degree of uctlvity. Stocks that did not share In the strength wers not gen erally reactionary, but were rather re- IrHinftH fpnm I h.i aA unpa li v clllnff In take prollts. Commission houses reported I some growth In outside demand, and the features of the trading was the compara tively small lots dealt In. The great specu lative pools were active at u lew points, but In stocks In which outside demand appeared they were Inclined to take their profits by feeding this demand. The ap pearance of the outside demand in lact meets the objection of the principal buying of the Inst three weeks which has been almost wholly by professional operators In anticipation of th conditions now existing. The sustained chancier 01 the advance, I's freedom from reaction and the development now in the normal easing of the money market have evidently served to some ex tent to encourage the null lc to buy stocks. , something it had not done for a long time IHtsi, eiiner irom laca or means 10 oprruie owing to- the tight mnnoy market or to deep-rooted suspicion of the market. The money rate did relax very distinctly today and some of the banks reached re .iewnls of call loans for large amounts at materially lower rates than those lately prevailing. The market rate on money tell below 6 per cent for the day. The foreign money centers continued to reflect the returning floods of funds to the chan nels of the money market. The encourag ing effect of this In New York was some what modilied by thv demand for gold In Imdon and the decline of sterling In Paris, while exchange bills were in con siderable demand. The possibility of the growth of a Paris demand upon Ixindon and its shifting upon New York was thus Indicated. The problem of future net earnings of railroads Is kept alive by the continual re ports of advancing wages. The reopening of the Union Pacllic wage question was a distinct drag upon that stock. The hard coale.-s reflected protlt-taklng and United States Steel preferred wss a notable ex ample of the same process, although the common stock shared fairly Imthe general strength of metal stocks. Including the railroad equipment companies. The further advance In the price ot copper benefited Amalgamated, The southwestern railroads were the sub ject of speculation on the ground of the early benefit to be derived from the corn crop. Missouri Pacltlc was helped by Its Increase in gross taming for the fourth week In December of $168,000. Louisville, however, which gained lr. gross for the same period over $193,000, was held back throughout by large realizing. The large engagement for export of corn and the resulting making of exchange mndo an encouraging factor. There was a nota ble disposition for the speculation to seek low-priced stocks, both among the rail roads and Industrials. Some of the soft coalers were In demand, especially those tupping the Ohio and West Virginia fields. A rally In St. Paul from early depression had an encouraging effect upon the specula tion, as did the strength In Sugar, but Ir regularity in the market persisted until the close. There was some evidence of investment demand In the bond market and some of the lower grade l.onda which still return a comparatively high rate of Interest were the favorites.

The quality of the most of the cattle was also rather Inferior, but packers took hold in 1,-ood fhape and an active, firm market re sulted. Receipts included about 20 cars of cornfed steers, but there were none of them thut could be classed as choice, aa will be seen from the prices paid below. Packers had to have some tattle, so that they bought up such as were offered at good, firm prices, and the bulk of the cattle were disposed of In good season. The general opinion was that choice grades would have sold a little siionscr. A large proportion of the offerings con tested of cows and heifers, and ihe market could be quoted steady to strong; and active. The strength was moat notlceuble on the better grades, though canners and cutters sold freely at fully as good prices as were paid last week. There was no quotable change In the orlces paid for bulls, veal calves and stags. The receipts of stockers and feeders were again light this morning, and as there were quite a few orders in the yards, anything showing any quality at all commanded stronger prices. Owing to the scarcity of that class even the commoner grades sold at a little better prices than were paid last fweek, and everything was disposed of la good Season. nciircaeiimuve bales, liEjCr nicLns.
