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. Total sales, par
toJ540,JO- Vnlted state bonds were
unchanged on call.
Number of sales and quotations on stocks

the market today owing to revenue collec
tions and month-end requirements. Dis
counts were steady on the strength of first
class securities, whlclj imparted cheerful
ness to other sections of the market. On
the Stock exchange consols showed a net
gain of three-fourths of 1 per cAnt on gov
ernment buying for sinklna- fund ournoses
and some speculative buying in anticipation
of an early reduction in thu Bank of Eng
land a rate of discount, but there was also
a gooa demand for consols as well as colon
! lai stocks from investors and insurance
companies Home rails finished firmer.
Copp-r shares wore good. Mexican rails
spurted, while foreign bonds advanced with
Paris buying, special attention being given
to Russian and Japanese bonds.
American securities were quietly firm In
I me lorenoon at tractions over parity. The
Steel report was about as expected and did
I asit have much erfect. Later prices ad-
I vanced quietly In sympathy with the other
sections, men isew York sent a satisfactory
opening and the market finished steadv."

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.

8H EEP Recelpta of sheep were larger
than anticipated, the arrivals running quite
a little above estiniatea At the same time
Chicago and all other market riolnis re
porter very large runs. Advices irom east
ern points were decidedly unfavorable, and
It waa very evident right from the outset
that packera would Insist upon a consid
erable concession or leave the stuff un
bought. In consequence the market opened
very slow and the forenoon waa far - ad
vanced before enough business was trans
acted to mage a test of the market. Prices
right at the outset were fully l'u ic lower
on the general run of the receipts.
tjuotations on good to choice led sheep
and lambs: Lambs, ii.ijiSti.ij. light year
ling wethers, ta.tioniti.ui"; heavy yearling
wethers, 5.tij.tAi; wethers, Jj.wr-ra.3u,
ewes, H.7iiii6.tO.
Lambs, li anything were worse sellers
man sheep partly because a large propor
tion of tne receipts consisted of lambs,
whereas the number of really good fat sneep
waa not very large. LamDs 111 a good many
cases iooaed aa much as 101 25c lower. 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.
Toduy's break in the sheep inaiket wipes
out a4(Ood share of the advance ul yester
day and day before, leaving ttie market not
far from where It was 011 Friday of last
week.
