NEW YOnft, Deo. .-The stock market today gave plain evidence of the operation of protective measures for the support of prices sgalnst depreneion. The vigor with which the market rallied from the general declines at the opening and the determina tion with wnlch prices were bid up of the half doten stocks which re of most influence In shaping speculative sentiment on the whole, lint gave testimony to the benevolent control being exercised by capi talists of the largest resources. The fart of this support is now generally recognised about the Stork exchange, while opinions vary widely as to the motive guiding the movement. . Cynical observers profess to see In It nothing beyond a device to secure an advantageous mHrket for holdings which lurge capitalists were prac tically forced to take on- in the- period of the panic to' avert the utter demoraJisatlon of affairs In which they were interested. The more liberal view of the favor shown towards the recovery Is that a Judicious readjustment of price's was warranted after the utter prostration to which forced liquidation bad csrried quotations and the general credit situation will be helped by this readjustment, 'affecting securltloe that form the basis for extensive money obliga tions and which figure In the balance sheets of many Institutions' for whlrh the annual statements are now In preparation. The effectiveness of the support for the market was made notable by reason of the rather acute weakness shown by a few special stocks. The weakness of the copper group. Including American Smelting, waa pro nounced, and was dtrertly attributable to the unfavorable trade developments. The drastic reduction In output of copper dis closed In the entire shutdown of some of the Amalgamated Copper company's prop erties iolnted accurately to the source of the doubts reflected in -the movement of these storks. Firthfr dividend reductions were counted upon as an outcome of this action, Thero Is growing appreciation also of the limited consumptive demand, which has figured In the recent large exports of copper, and which are now aliened to be going into European stocks Instead of Into consumption. The transfer of stocks from here to abroad Is said to have been made only with a view to superior money market facilities there for holding purposes. The Imminence of th dividend meeting for Western Union explained the special movement In that stock. Fears were en tertained thnt the shrinkage in genernl business activity, always rellected In tele graph revenues, as well aa the losses inci dent to the strike of telegraph operators, would prompt the directors to pass the coming dlvtdond or to materially reduce It. This khid of expectation was clear In the case of other Industrial stocks, notably Distillers' Securities. The call loan market was even firmer than on Friday, due to Increased stock market borrowing, and this was an ad monitory Influence on speculative exten sion. Another Influence on the call loan market, however, was the stirring of life In the time loan market and In that for mercantile paper. Increased supplies were reported In those markets and bankers and money lenders were less bent on conserving their funds In the liquid form of call loans. Some withdrawals of that form of credits evidently were being transferred to tho othesa; a clear Intimation of the easing of the whole money situation. This develop, ment aroused a hope that the easing of money might come before the turn of .the year, although the expectation has been that the January settlements would .have to be met before this happened. Some of the demand from out-of-town - banks for currency kept up and a premium was still paid. Another large engagement of gold in London for Import resulted, but It was secured at a decline In the price. The late selling of I'nlted -States Steel had a sympathetic effect on thajnarket and made the closing tone easy. Bonds were Irregular.

The arrivals at this point consisted of a mixture of natives and rangers. The fed stuff was on the warmed up order, with very little that could be called really good killers. Receipts ot cows and heifers were quite large and there was a considerable sprinkling of feeders. . The market opened slow and -dull. Pack ers were evidently In no hurry to begin operations, but seemed Inclined to wait fuller advices from other markut points be fore doing very much business. The result was that the forenoon was well advanced before the market bad really opened. The late arrival Of a proportion of the -receipts contributed to tho. lateness-of the market. . When buyers and seller finally got to gether It win on the hauls of about last Week 6 closing prices.

II (Kiwi.;... 808 8 00 HCKjrS The market opened with seventy seven cara of hogs In slicht at thla nolnt and with rery large recelpta at other mar ket points, Chicago being credited with no. 000 bead. At the aame time report from all market points woie most discouraging advices Indicating a decline of 16fiJ;,o, with S ackers' message generally reporting a rop of a flat fco at Chicago. Under suck circumstances It waa not surprising that buyers at this point were very bearish right from the outset. A few hogs that were wanted to till special orders or for shipping account aold early at 14.4134 6.1. but ee a rule packer were bidding around $4.402t-t. 45 for the general run of bog, in other words liVXc lower. Seller mad a hard etroirle and were very backward about taking of. o that It was well along toward, mtodajr before the trade wao teaiiy under war. As It became' apparent that the re ceipt were not a-larg a anticipated at this point, while the demand. waa very fair, packera raised some of the bid and the hogs sold at $4 4 84.60 for tho bulk, with top of $4 65.

The arrivals consisted largely of. tuff that had been on feed, with nulla a liberal sprinkling of rangers. The tnost of the fed stuff was only warmed up Or half at and not very doslrahle from a killer's standpoint. There was sumo little Inquiry on the part of buyers for choice killers that would do for the holiday trade, but there waa very llttlo In sight that could be made to answer thnt pur pose. A good share of the rangers were on the feeder order and hardly good enough for killt-re. .The market opened very slow and dull. Feeder buyers picked up a few lambs that were wanted to fill special orders, paying $5.60 for good warmed-up stuff and as high as $5.75 for a right choice lot carrying considerable flesh. Packers announced right fieai the outset that they must have a liberal concession In accordance with the reported break at Chicago, and unless they Could securo uch concession they would have, have to leave the stuff unbought. Pollers were backward about taking off with the result thnt the -.morning was passed with very little trading being done, and it was later than usual before the niarlTet had really opened. When buyers and sellers finally got down to . business the offerings changed handa slowly, but at prices that were generally l'?)l5c lower than lust week. Some pretty decent lambs sold to killers at $S.i5. aa against $6.10 for the same kind last Mon day. Yearlings at $4.55 were the same that sold the day following Thanksgiving at $4 75. . yuotation on good to choice fed sheep and lambs: Lambs, t.7w.
