NEW YORK. Deo. 29. There waa a re
sumption of liquidation in the stock market
today which had a disquieting effect on
speculative sentiment, the more so aa au
perflclal conditions offered no explanation.
Its source waa also somewhat mysterious.
The disturbing Influence of the heavy de
cline of a number of Important stocks
was seen In the reappearance of rumors
sbout the Stock exchange of financial dif
ficulties. The pressure centered on the Hill stocks,
St. Paul and Reading, but showed a grow
ing tendency to spread to other positions on
the Hat. The severe declines already made
In those stocks carry as a necessary con
sequence heavy speculative losses In some
quarters and It was this unfavorable In
ference that gave force to the current ap
prehensions. The disappointing efteot on
the prices of the stocks of the new issues
of Great Northern preferred. Northern Pa
cific and St. Paul Is of far-reaching con
sequence to the speculative situation. Prices
or tne sunscrlptlon rights also continue to
decline. The action of Reading also was
evidence or a difficult market position on
the part of the large holdings of the stock
on margin. No loans are made at the Stock
exchange on Saturday, so that the money
situation in of a sympathetic Influence. It
Is generally agreed conditions In the money
market show distinct Improvement. The
bank statement showed all of the expected
gain In cash and more. The loan expansion
In face of the week's stock market liaulda-
tlon would be puzzling in ordinary circuin-
sianeesL out tne complications or the prena
rations for the year end settlements are
easily allowable for explanation.
The time money market shows a lessoned
pressure ror accommodation. Larue tr
rivals of South African gold In Enland
promised assistance for that market In the
year end strain and discounts in London
were easier again. With the exception of
some buying to cover shorts In the late
dealings the llqtildntlon was continued up

Wool Market.
BOSTON. Dec. 29. WOOL The annual
canvass of the wool trade of the United
Slates by the Boaton Commercial Bulletin
to discover the amount of wool rema.ning
unsold at the close of the year shows a
stock this year of 94,402,046 pounds of do
mestic and 16.169,000 pounds or foreign wool.
This Is to be compared with a stock of
72,461.441 pounds of domestic and 24,414,000
pounds of foreign one year ago and hence
shows an Increase for this year of 21,940,603
pounds of domestic and a decrease in the
stock of foreign wool of 9,246,000 pounds.
Regarding the wool market the Commercial
Bulletin of Saturday says: Despite the
holiday period and the annual claiming up
of mill accounts a moderately substantial
business la being accomplished. Bonis
house:i are experiencing a rather quiet de
mand for wool, while others are enjoying
an active trade. The general condition of
the market is satisfactory to merchints,
who feel that the steadily diminishing local
stocks and the strength of the foreign mar
kets sjfllcienlly warrant a stirrer price
tendency. Large handlers of domestic wool
are busily employed shipping the recent
heavy purchases. Flue and fine medium
clothing territory are still having a good
movement, the transfers including Wyoin.
lug, Idaho, Montana and Utah stock. Sale
are of varying quantities, moht of them,
however, being of moderate proportion.
Prices range from 2?'uS!c In the urease, or

CATTLT2 There Were no fresh receipts
of cattle today and the total for the week i
has been very small as compared with
previous weeks, and some smaller than for
tne corresponaing ween ot last year, ukik
receipts, however, were Just what every
one Interested In the selling end of the
trade wanted. It will be remembered that
the cattle market broke badly last week,
not onlv here, but at nil selling points ns
well, the receipts naving Deen too large
for the demand. The moderate receipts
this week has enabled demand to overtake
supply, so thrt values have gradually re
covered, until at the close of the week
they are juat as high as they have been
any time within the last two weeks. In
other words, the market Is 25940e higher
than It was at the low point, and besides
that, In a good, healthy condition. This
would apply equally well to both beef
steers and cows and heifers. If th coun
try will now exercise a little moderation
and not ship In too many half fat or
warmed up steers, there Is every reason
for believing that the market will continue
In fair shape. Too many poor cattle,
though, are "almost certain to weaken
values even on the good kinds.
Good, fleshy feeders, having both weight
and quality, have sold very well nil the
week, being In good demand at steady
prices. On the other hand, light stackers.
and Inferior grades of all kinds have been
slow sale.

HOGS Hog sold Bo higher thl morning.
In some cases a r.;g 5c higher than yes
terday's general market. The trade, when
once under way, was quite active, so that
oractlcallv everything changed hands In
very fair season In the morning. A feature
of the market was the bunching of sales,
due to the fact that the best heavy weights
are now selling right close up to light
weights. Yesterday the bulk of the lings
sold at $fi 12tG.17, with a sprinkling a
$6.20. Today the most of the hogs brought
$6.20(?r6.2S. The latter price was paid for
some choice heavy weights, us well a for
light loads. The top was no higher than
yesterday.
The receipts of hogs thl week have been
quite moderate, ahowing a consldercb'o
falling off as compared with the previous
week and with u year ago. The market
hiis been up and down, back and forth, but
the week closes with prices at tho high
point, which Is 12c higher than one week
ago.
