NEW YORK, Jan. 6 The strength of the stO( k market today showed less restraint tlian at any time this week. The relaxation In the money market was more pro nounced than since the turn of the year. There Vas a much calmer view of the lg nlhcance of yesterday s remarks by Jacob H. Schiff foretelling the greatest panic In history unless soma change waa eftected In the prevailing currency system. This re vised view was due not so much to the qualifying phrases found In the full report of the speech against the intention to Imply a danger or immediate disaster as to a riper consideration of the conditions of ti e address. It was realized that the sagac ity of the experienced banker would pro hibit the Issuance of a note of alarm at a time of actual strain and danger which would In Itself aggravate the danger. It waa reasoned, therefore, that the choosing of this time for giving his warning impliea Mr. tSchltt'a conviction that the time of actual danger from the condition of ten sion in the money market waa now paet. The stress laid upon the agitation for railroad legislation aa an undesirable alter native to the desired measures tor currency reform also Indicated a strong special mo- ; tlve for the matter of the banker s address. As speculative sentiment received quite a shock yesterday In the first perusal of tho bulletins of this speech, there was a corre spondlng revulsion In sentiment today. ' 'lliere seemed to be a conslderatlve de mand also to cover shorts on the part of bear operators, who sold the market hastily on yesterday's break. Something was made or the fact or Mr. Schirr s contention mi the Inconvenience in the recent money market were not to be attributed to exces sive speculation. The active and vigorous support of fnlon Pacific was given special significance as a reflection of the market's attitude of the banking Intersts iroin wnicu , Arh,oq yesterday s warning came. ine copper i ,) pm Xew York Moner Market.

Liquidation by a num ber of prominent bulls caused a (harp break today in the local wheat market. At the close wheat for May delivery waa off He. Corn was up c. Oals were unchanged and provisions were unchanged to So lilrher. There were no signs of weakness in the wheat pit at the opening, the market In fact being quoted strong. Opening quota tions on May were up lfiv4c to V4c, at W7Af(flc to Mc. During the first few minutes commission housese and local trad ers were active bidders ami they carried the price of May up to tOyo. The de mand was caused chiefly by an advance of Hd In the price of wheat at Liverpool and wus due also to decreased receipts In the northwest. The market, however, soon encountered heavy selling orders from com mission houses. These offerings were gen erally considered to be made by some of the leading bulls and general selling com menced which resulted In a quick decline. May dropping to WH"- At this point there waa a slight rally, but It was of short duration. Fresh offering came out and the market became tlll weaker, Mny de clining to tic. An Important factor In tha latter part of the trailing wax a statement from Xne official grain inspector of Argen tina claiming that tho exportnble surplus of wheat would be greater ihlH year thnn In 11X16 and that the quality of the grain w:n better. The market cluaed easy with May at 88'c. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to ;13.' bushels. Exports fur the week, as shown bv Hradstreeta. were equal to S.40,0i busl-eln. Primary receipt were 511, 000 bufhcls, aninat 6o0,0U0' bunhels a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi cago reported receipts of 3;t cars, against Kin cars last week and 361 cars a year aso. Iesplte the breuk In wheat the corn market waa firm fur alniuai the entire day. I .a rite clearances at the seabo.trd, and Bradstreet report showing exports of ,2TiO,noo bushels for the week were factors that largely offset the weakness of wheat leading commission houses were active buyer and local traders followed their lead by mnklng liberal purchased. The close wss firm and final quotations were prac tlcally at the highest point of the day May opened a shade lower to a shade higher Ht Hw44V. sold between 4c and 4.V and closed at 447"'45c. Ixjial receipts were ai cars with seventeen of contract graCe. Selling bv elevator Interests caused some weakness In oats enrly In the session. The market later recovered all of the eurly loss on buying by shorts, who were driven to cover by the firmness of corn. May opened a ahnde to c higher at SiVrr324- to XJV. sold between 32Vc and 32c and closed at 32-c. Iral receipts were ninety-eight car. The provisions market whs firm' through out the day on active buying by shorts and local packers. The strength was caused by a lOnjiDC advance In the price of live hogs and by an excellent demand for cash lard. There waa considerable profit-taking In pork. and. because of this that product showed less strength. At the close May pork was unchanged at 113.95. Lard was up 2Sufr at 17. tilVn ;.(). Ribs were 5c higher at V 55. Evilniateil receipts for tomorrow! Wheat, twenty-eight earn; corn. 300 cars; oats, 147 cure, hogs, 15.0OO head.

Receipt!, how ever, were not very large while the de mand was of fair proportions. Salesmen held on strong and In the end forced packers to pay the advance. The result was that while slow to get started the moat of the hogs sold in good season at the advance noted above. As will be seen from the sales below a very considerable proportion of the hogs sold at 1S.U6 22H. letter on the market eased off and closed with part of the advance lost.

The forecasts of the rash changes of the week showed a very large movement of currency to New York from the Interior. The margin of the re celists on balance over the losses on ac count of the absorption of tha sub-treasury and the withdrawals of gold for ex port, the latter Items amounting to 13,23.000 wai estimated at $2,000,000 and upwards. The precedent of former years warrants the assumption that this reflux of funds to New York from interior points will con tinue on a large scale for some weeks to come. Money waa offered for loans on call much more freely as a consequence of these conditions and from the early high rate of V Prr cent waa forced down after the active demand of the day had been satisfied to below 8 per cent. The easing of the money rate was followed by an advance in foreign exchange. Sterling exchange at continental points moved against London and the transfer of this pressure probably had Its part also In carrying up the terlliig exchange rate here.

Fortunately the quality was better than yesterday and as a result the market was more active and in a good, healthy condition. It might be Bummed up as a good, active and steady market. This proves once more the oft-repeated assertion that packers want desirable fat sheep and lambs and will buy them readily nt very satisfactory prices. The only trouble Is that shippers get too anxious to realise and Im agine their sheep are better than they really are and snip them in before tney are ripe for slaughter. Among the sales this morning were west ern yearlings at $6.2n, old wethers at $6 80 and ewes at $5.60. Everything sold In good season and tho market was entirely satis factory to owners and sellers.

Rates for money were easier In the market today owing to the distribution of government dividends. Dls counts were disposed to be lower on ac count of the more abundant supplies of money. There was a cheerful undertone on the Stock exchange, although operators generally were Idle, this being the eve of the settlement. Nevertheless there wss a fair amount of Investment business. Con sols opened steady and hardened later on the money prospects. Home rails had a firm tendency. Americans opened wejik. moved Irregularly to below parity, became Inactive and rallied during the last hour and closed at top prices. Foreigners were quiet.

Such cattle as pleased thorn they picked up very quickly, while some others were rather slow sale. To call it a s'eady market would Just about cover the ground. The market on cows and heifers was In about the same shape as the sti-er market, thut is there was a fair demand, moderate receipts and no very marked change in any direction. Fairly active und about steady would just about i cover the cow trade. The most of the receipts changed hands In good season.
