By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES. Chicago) Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Win. New York, Jan. 3. No sudden towering of money rates occurred to day in the first financial market of the New Year. The long familiar 7 hi to 8 per cent rate on six months collateral loans and merchants' paper was again the order of the day and call money on the -stock ex change did not vary from 7 per cent This, of itself, however, proves lit tle or nothing for the probable trend of the January money market as ft whole. Even in periods of absolute tight money, when extravagant rates had been quoted on the stock ex change in the last week of December, the subsiding of the market to a nor mat basis was to be expected, pected. - , Sterling recovered sharply. Start With Recoveries. ' Tha stock exchange began the year with further recovery In prices. This ad vance. In the end, ran tn numerous stock to i and a pointa, and waa rather in tn na ture of continuance of last week's final upward reaction than response to any thing like changed conditions, wall street ascribed the day'a recoveries (which affected mainly the Industrial 'hares) to buying buck of stocks which their owners bad sold to "establish losses." That Is ciulte possible. No one could expresa feel Ing. last week, that sales of the charac ter referred had almost reached a pitch of hysteria. People, who probably had en tertained no nurnose of such aah'f. fielded to the impulse when It seemed, from the taiK or, wail strut tnat everyone vise was engaged In the same undertaking. It followed reasonably enough that tho lu-xt action by many of the sellers would be determined by the course of the stocks themselves. When prices ahowtd a ten dncy to quick advances. It was natural that something of a scramblo to buy them back Should have ensued. Railway stocks, although they went slightly higher, did not participate tn the rapid recoveries; which would, be logical on the above-mentioned theory of Wall street, since there had been n Inviting opportunity to "establish losses" in that part of the market. A few 'ndustrlal shares broke sharply, but those move ments had the earmarks of professional activity and affected the general list only temporarily. Bond Market Disappointing. The bond market as a whole was dis appointing to whoever may have looked for one of the old-fashioned general re coveries. A number of separate Invest ments roso In price as they did last week, thereby again proving at least the mar' set's responsiveness to any considerable reinvestment orders But other bonds de- clincd and prices! were not In the main muon aiterea irom last week. The bonds, however, wero a i.otable ex ception;! there was very good reason why mey snouici nave been. In view ol the wholly abnormal break In their price toward the end of December and of thu quite exceptional Inducement which their net incomes yield provides at existing prices for estates. Several of these bonds rose H to point In todr.y's markets, a few of them sold 1 to 2 points above last week's lowest Omaha Grain Omaha, Jan. 3. Receipts showed a considerable in crease over those of a week ago and the market as a whole had a much stronger tone. Wheat advanced sev eral cents, with buyeri a little slow to follow the advance. Corn ranged from unchanged to 3 cents up, some of the lower grade mixed samples going at unchanged prices. Oats sold up a half. Rye was 1 to 2 cents higher. Barley was several cent higher as compared with the last previous sales. - These spot sales are reported: WHEAT. No. 1 hard winter: 1 car, 31. El! J cars, 11.80; 1 car, 81.78.
