NEW YORK STOCKS AND'BONDS Pricei Drift Downward on Dimin ished Volume of Trading. HELP APPARENTLY WITHDRAW? tailed Slates Steel Leads Derriae, Mklrh la Accelerated ks- Hamora "t Farther Caraaratloa l.ealslatloa. NEW YORK. Jan. ?9. No effective obsta f" re interposed to prevent the down ward drift of prlcea of stocks today, which was made on a much diminished volume of business of that which has been the rule rnr many days past. The pressure to sell showed no signs of urgency, but the benev olent control which has been apparent since the present week opened was with drawn, leaving the market to Its own tendenclea. The supporting measures which nave been obvious to even a superficial ob servation, have been attribute,! to the. large banking and capital interests, the supposed motive being the purpose to pro tect the market from an undue effect of onie of thn recent developments that had bnen dreaded. The passing of several of these incidents may have accounted for the a&andonment of protective measures In the market today. The appearance of the United States Steel corporal lon'a quarterly report, with its emphatic testimony to the contraction of the business of the corporation following the financial crisis, waa the latest of these Incidents. The tenor of the report, how ever, had been so clearly outlined in pre liminary estimates, both In the figures of the quarter's net earnings and In the ton nage of orders on hand that no marked Change of sentiment was caused bv the reading of the report. Greater Interest at tached to the current eondltione In the Iron -.mi eieei iraoe. or which no hint was orrered in the United States Steel report Some questioning waa heard of how much the amount of unfilled orders on hand might be affected by orders which it was sought to have canceled after the setback in business occurred and which the author ities in the company refused to allow can celled, but consented to postpone delivery ?h Tnt; h'"iiv,ne,, 0f rmted States Steel led the downward turn In prices. In the opinion of operators on the floor of the Mock exchange the dominant Influence In the depression was the reports of renewed measures against the power of corporations in contemplation at Washington Very derinlte rumors were In circulation regard ing the contents of special messatres from the president to congress said to be In tended for an early day. snd bearing on a new employers' liability law. enlarged privilege against discrimination for union lahor and drastic restrictions on sieculative operationa In the markets undor the guise of anti-gambling regulations. There was a note of dlssatlsfactir, per ceptible in the financial dlatrict over the delav In retirement of a remnant of the clearing house loan certificates issued to tide over the crisis. That further extension of time for this purpose should be deemed necessary to insure two or three of the smaller banks from embarrassments, which t was believed would be caused bv forc ing their hand at this time, left the ulti mate outcome of the situaiion in some per plexity There waj perceptible check today to the downward course of money rates In the time loan department and the reaction in roreign exchange was the reenonse to this condition. New offerings of railroad notes and the tempting interest r.ites still home by these Issues are diverting some siims away from the time monev market The discussion of a forthcoming New York city loan for an amount Intended to le from $ju.U0O.Ono to $40.0u0.0on fr a lnnir term and to ear Interest at 4S per cent also was an influence In the monev market The lively rise In the New York traction stocks proved a poor substitute, as a sustaining influence for the recent strength of more prominent railroad stocks. A re duction In quotations for copper at the Net lork Metal exchange was an Incident of the day. Covering by bears late In the day developed a continued supply of stocks and uie sagging tendency gave wav to more pronounced weakness at the closing. Bonds were Irregular.

Other buyers Total 4.440 15.R1J 4.J15 CATTLE Receipts of cattle this morning were quite liberal at thia point and very heavy at some other selling points, Chicago especially, which had a very large run. early reported the number aa 27.0OJ head, with the market 15S2oc lower than Mon day. Reporta of that kind naturally made buyers here very cautious and they were in no hurry to get out into the yards or to commence business, preferring In most rases to await later advices before filling their orders. Hence It was that the mar ket opened verjr slow and lower on every thing. It was nearly midday before enouglt business was transacted to really make a market or establish quotations on heel steers. Whey they did aell. they were 15-il 2ftc lower than Monday of th's week, or 1'Jfir ioc lower than last Friday. Cows and heifers suffered about the aame decline as beef steers, and the trade wag also dull from start to finish pn that kind. It waa very late before anything like a clearance had been effected. In spite of the demoralised condition of the market on killing cattle there waa a very fair demand for good feeding steers and the market on anything of that de scription did not how any material change, being generally steady with yesterday. Common light stockers were not much sought after, but still they sold about as well as yesterday.

Af ter the more urgent orders were tilled the market became very dull even at the de cline, so that it was not so much a question of price as of finding a buyer.
