NEW YORK, Jan. 1 Prices of storks wavered uncertainly today and showed a tendency to settle back to Monday's dos ing level. The volume of business was on an Insignificant scale. The constraint of the speculation wss not explainable by any Immediate developments, these being mostly favorable. But the longer outlook was the subject of much consideration and of greatly mixed Interpretation. There wa a wealth of authority In evidence In the an nual reviews on th great showing ot the year Just past, but there was In all -of these a rather surprising unison In the note of caution mingled with even the most hope ful passages, and from that ranging down ward In the scale of optimism to an admis sion of probable early commercial reaction and depression. This had its effect on stock market sentiment. The future of the money market also seemed (ar from clear In spite of the prompt relaxation which was manifest today In this market and in foreign markets as well. Berlin discount rates eased In a way to give gratifying evidence of the successful Iiasslng of the year and crisis In that mar ;et, which was especially dreaded. London discounts ran off In a pronounced way. The early 20 per cent rate for call loans here was not held long. The huge volume of the clearing house exchanges was witness to the Important progress already made on Monday In disposing of ths annual require ments. Conditions seemed tending quickly, therefore, towards the money relaxation which has been relied on to revive stock market activity. A modifying factor which must be reckoned with Is the course of the treasury operations In the future and which were especially dwelt on in the January circular of the National City bank. Provis ion Is already Implied (or the return of 110,000.000 of government deposits held by the banks, half on January 20 and half on February 1. and the latter date was also mentioned as the period for beginning the return of the $27,000,000 of deposits made with the banks In September last. The olr cular estimates that exceaa of government revenues over, payments between now and January no win amount to KiK.udo.uuo ad ditional. The opinion Is expressed that money rates will be sustained by these causes up to the time of the maturity of the $115,wo,C00 of 4 per cent bonds, when the outlook will he affected by the alterna tive of redemption cf the whole Issue or of partial refunding. Meantime prepayment has been made of all the government In terest falling due up to and Including May I. a striking feature of the day s financial markets was the violent advance in the foreign exchange market. The demand for remittance seemed urgent In SDlte of the easing of money markets abroad. It was in terred mat obligations which were deferred during the stringency in money here were Demg covered on a large scale. The price of demand sterling rose fully I pence In the pound over that of last week. Ths high Interest rates charged on stock mar ket account for December had a discourag ing effect on holders of stocks on margin. The average rate for the month charged by; me biock exenange nouses was 12 per cent. The Impending inquiry Into the relations of the Harrlman group of railroad properties by the Interstate Commerce commission was the occasion of some depression. The HB1 stocks were supported and there was a subsidence of the rumors of money troubles growing out of the severe decline In those stocks. There were other points of oc casional strength, but thev yielded In the course of the trading. The market closed irregulaw and near the low prices of the any. Bonds were IrreaTilar.

IDs trade opened slow and It took buyers and sellers some time to get their ideas adjusted to a trading basis, but when the Ice was once broken the hogs moved off rapidly, so that the big end of the receipts changed bands by 10 o'clock or soon after. The bulk went at 4"-'0.BH. as against 1.'U and 8426 yesterday. In other words, the most of th hoars sold only 2Ho lower, but there were esses where salesmen were forced to take ort so. as will be noted from the sale below the popular price was 36.20. One choice load of MO-pound hogs sold up to 86.27H. which wag th top, as against 86.80 yesterday. The market closed about steady with the open ing, there being very little change through out the day.

WHY MISSIONS AP.E SEPARATE Part of Geaeral Plan of neorgaalsa- ' i tloa of Benevolences, Say Rev. J. R. Smith. "Though It ha been contemplated for some time, this was entirely a new ventur for the church," said Rev. J. Randolph : Smith, referring to the action of the Metho dist church In divorcing home from foreign ' missionary work. "It la a part of the plan of the reorganization of th benevolences of the church. Two years sgo, at the general confer ence meeting at Los Angeles a committee was appointed to effect the reorganization,-" whlrh Is rflmmnnlv nnnken of aa a consoll- . datlon, since In several Instances the work - of various societies has been combined, t For Instance, what wa formerly the work of the Southern Educational society has ' come under the -management of th Educa-., tlonal society "This committee recently completed its ( work, at A meeting held at Buffalo. For elgn and home missionary work wag formerly don by th same organization; " now it will be, done by separate depart ments. Th separation went In fore Jan uary 1. Dr. A. B. Leonard, former cor- ; responding secretary of the missionary so ciety of the church, has been appointed oor-i. responding secretary of the Foreign Ml-: sionary society. Mr. J. M. King 01 fnna dolnhla. former secretary of th Churchy Extension society, has been made corr- - ponding secretary of th Horn Mis-, sionary society. Th appointments will bold until th next general conference, ' 'In 1907 It will be our aim to raise 1.- 000,000 for home missions and $1,000,000 for foreign missions. Last year w had 'only 81.600,000 for both. The dlvlrlon of the. two lines ot work 1 calculated to bring mor money for both." ' . ' Kx-f'onvlct Is Released.
