New Yojik, Dec. 10. Paulo condl
tlona dovelopod on tho stock oxchango
with tho imperativo need of mouoy de
veloped by tho violent contraction In
values. Stocks were being thrown
over without tho slightest regard to tho
prices tlioy would bring aud at distress
ing wicrluco of v.ilaos. In tho last halt
hour of tho market soma $10,000,000
was offered on tho ctoclc exchange by
the concerted action of the clearing
houso banks to forco tho rato nrbltrally
down to 0 per cent without regard to
distracted bidding ac hlghor rates whlih
was being douo by other brokers for
distressed operators. Tlio collapse in
tho money rato choclcod tho doclino and
drove tho bears to cover. Tho recov
irics produced by their urgent bidding
tvero ntmost as vlolont an tho declines
had been, but tho losses were by uo
means entirely rctriorcd. Largo offer
ings of stocks continued at tho rally,
and at oomo points of tho list pricoi
Iroko anew before tho clow, making
tho closing exceeding irregular and un
settled, Tho scrioueness of tho cri(U called
forth tho best efforts of powerful nnd
couservativo financial lutcruts, who
wcio busy concerting measures to tide
ovor tlio money difficulties which beset
tho stock market end which, by reason
of their extent and tho Importance ot
tho interest; involved, threaten to affect
tho country's business interests unless
obstacles woro opposod.
There was a suspension by a newly
organized trust company and by a firm
ot hankers nnd brokers who havo ilg
ured as traders iu stocks to an oxtcnt
of Homo Importance. Neither event la
itself would havo been suHlciont to pre
cipitate a crisis. But tlioy were supple
mented with a whole crop of wild and
incoherent rumors.
Tho reasou for tho widespread effect
upon sentiment of tho trust company's
suspension was that it was ono of a
largo number of institutions rocently
formed on similar lines ami which havo
thilviu upon tho multiplying of securi
ties incident to tho industrial combina
tions which havo boen a featuro of the
past year, Tlio securities of theso com
binations as n class havo been lu dis
favor in Wall stroet for many wcoks
past aud, iu fact, ever since, tho head
long luflatloii iu their prices and subse
quent collapso last spring, Tho princi
pal allegations against them urn ovor
capitalization, exorbitant prices paid for
coiistltnuut properties and vulnerability
to existing nnd threatened legislation
against oiinblnatlouf.
It has been obvious for many mouths
past that u great ileal of money had
been locked up by capitalists in these
now industrial combinations, which
wuro becoming burdensomit to curry by
roason of tho houvy demands for money
in tho regular chaunols, tho largo ab
sorption of funds by reason ot tho gov
ernment's surplus revenues and the
urgent needs of tho London money mar
ket growing out of tho Transvaal war.
Lust weok's threatening oltuattoit in
lloston was tho outgrowth of tho burden
of copper stocks, Tims it was that tho
trust company failure, ooniiug upon hint
week's e cuts lu Hoston, arousod fhe
feartlut tho suspected class of securi
ties wcio uu thu point ot succumbing to
ndverso iiillnences. Iu tho cITorts to
protect those, securities others woro also
Involved, liiolndlng eonio of tho most
substantial slocks on tho list. Tho full
lu prices, instead of relieving tho situa
tion, added to tho weakness with cumu
lative forco by reason of tho shrlukugo
iu the valuo of collutorals,
lleforo tho conoortcd rtllef by tlio
clearinghouse banks tlio money late
leaped to SU, 70 uud 1(H) aud, according
to tho ulllclai recoiil. li!S por cout.
