SELLCfO TO TAKE PKOFTTS Decrease la Earnings of Railways la Clvra More Atteatloa kg Tradera loelag N Tone Is lrregalar. NEW YORK. Jan. 15-The reactionary movement of the market became more pro nounced today and prices gave way rather decisively. The fall was not precipitate, however, and the measures of support were not abandoned. There were points of strength hero and there In the market. The marking up of individual stocks was Intended rather obviously for sustaining effect against the profit taking sales which were In progreas. The turn in the course of the market was not attended by any marked change In the tenor of the newa, but was accounted for rather on technical grounds, tho advance havtng run a suffi cient length to bring out sales to take profits while the buyers were not disposed to follow prices to a higher level for the present on the basis of such Improvement in condition as has already occurred. Evidences of the rapid accumulation of banking facilities waa no less striking than laat week. Interest rates were lower for all classes of loans and the call loan rate at the Stock. exchange showed a rapid ap proach to absolute ease. No official Infor mation Is obtainable as to the clearing house loan certificate Issue. but it Is admitted that theae Inatrumenta are In progress of rapid retirement, the rate of which has been sufficient since laat Satur day's bank statement to Insure the total extinction of the whole Issues In a few days' time. The violence of the reflux of funds to bsnking reserve centerg deprives the discussion of the unfavorable course of the government revenues of any disturb ing effect. The growth of the deficit in the government revenues which has now reached 112,000.000 for the fiscal year, com pared with a surplus over expenditures for the same period last year of J5U . while the free cash In the treasury Is lesa than t8.000.0u0, makes It certain that large calls must be made on the banks for sur render of government deposits in a short time. From other Indications It Is evident that not only are banking deposits return ing freely to New York, but thousands of the circulation are contracting materially. Current redemptions of national bank njtes are running very large, the total thus far In January, according to yesterday'a state ment of the United tSates treasury opera tions, having reached nearly 111.000.000, or conaiderablv over Il.0ii0.0u0 a day. Today's debt balance of 12.245.223 of the subtreaa ury at the New York clearing house was quite half of .it accounted for by hank notes presented for redemption. These notes are capable of relsaue by the replen ishment of the 5 per cent redemption fund with the treasury. The circulation, how ever, has set in with some force, as shown by the figures of the deposit of lawful money at Washington by the banks for that Piirpose. Yesterday's treasury statement showed the total retirement thus far in the present month to have reached the sum of 12.347.032 and this figure marks the first occaalon on which advaniace has been taken of laat winter's provision of the law extending the limit of the per mitted retirement of bank notes In anv one month from I3.000.0ft0 to 19,000.000. With the month still but half gone It will be seen that contraction of the enormous ex pansion of circulation following the panic has actively set In. Under these circum stances withdrawal of government deposits from the banka in moderate amounts Is not expected to affect the money market unfavorably. The significance of the Inflow of money as an exhibit of trade contraction received more attention In the prevailing mood of the financial diatrlct today. The continued reports of declining rail road earnings and of retrenchment of ex penditure by the railroads and other great corporations was given considera tion. The action expected tomorr3w on the Amalgamated Copper dividend is awaited with Interest In view of the example of reduced disbursements on copper securities which have been offered. Reading was bid up with great determination In the last half hour of the trading with a recovery of more than Ita dividend and tho low prlcea to1 which atocka fell in -the close of 1 he selling were partly repaired in aympathy with the public demonstration.

Receipts, while llbrral. were ap parently none too large to meet tho re quirements of the trade. While there were some pretty good cattla here the receipt for the most part consisted of medium kinds, with a large percentage of cow stuff. There was; no noteworthy change in the market for beef steers. Packers all seemed to want a few and as there were also shipping orders on hand the demand was sufficiently brisk to create a good, ateady to strong market with the trade reasonably active at current prices. Among the offer ings were cattle good enough to bring 15.66. the beat price paid at thla point in some little time. Cowa hnd heifers were good free Belters, the same as tiiey have been all this week. The shipping demand continues good In ad dition to the local demand and the market waa reasonably active at steady prices. The big bulk of the offerings changed bands in good season In the morning. Although there were quits a good many feeders in S'glit. speculators having a good many on band In addition to the treh re ceipts, still the demand waa good for the desirable kinds, which sold freely at prices a little stronger even man yesterday.
