By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dee. — The restrain
ing influence of the coming January
settlement asserted Itself on the stork
market again today. A shifting of
loans began early In the day which ran
the call loan rate up to 18 per cent
and dislodged some holdings of stocks.
Tin- covering of short contracts which
was affected In yesterday's rising mar
ket left that of today deprived of that
much demand. There was evidence as
well as renewed pressure of liquidation
lnI In the Hill stocks and the subscription
rights for St. Paul ran off In a way to
nrgue ill for the prospective demand
for the new stock.
AA A new story was in circulation that
a large speculative holding of the Hill
stocks which was In a vulnerable posi
tion had been taken over a private
sale and It was hoped that tills would
relieve the stocks from the pressure of
the liquidation which has weighed on
I hem for several weeks and the re
newed depression was more disappoint
ing. Long decline in these stocks gave
rise to the disquieting rumors about the
stock exchange today of damage which
might result. These rumors were dis
credited in well Informed quarters- nnd
passed out of consideration when prices
began to recover late in the day. This
was after the principal money require
ments had been met at the stock ex
change. As loans made today carry
over until Monday, which is the last
day of the year, there was a growth In
the feeling of confidence that year-end
would be bridged without a violent
flurry In the money market.
The contrast In the action of the
stock market In view of this tranquil
condition In the call money market
with the rapid rise in stocks at this
time last year, when money went to
1251 25 per cent on call, was the subject of
much comment. The most plausible
explanation of the contrast is the more
widespread stringency In the world s
money market this year which ob
structed the efforts of the holders of
securities on margin to secure resources
for carrying them in foreign markets
and thus to ignore the fluctuations In
the local rate.
The usual estimate of the currency
movement showed a balance In favor of
New York, a large proportion of which
was believed to be by receipts from
The news of the death of President
Cassatt of the Pennsylvania railroad
was of almost no effect on the stock
market, and did not come as a surprise.
The late recoveries in the mraket
were well held and the closing tone was
fairly steady.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales,
par value. $1,054,000.
United States bonds were unchanged.

RECEIPTS OF EASTERN SPUDS

Advance of Ten Cents for Highland
Burbanks to the Trade — In.
creased Receipts of Cream
ery Butter
On the produce exchange yesterday an
other Incident In the pot« to corner de
veloped. For several days tern po
tato quotations have been around 81.16
per 100 lbs., while Highland Burbanks
were quoted at $1.75. Offerings ,1 Bui
hanks have been at $1.65 and $1.62%. Yes
terday one Jobber xuggested thai Ilur
banks ought to be quoted at $1 H to the
trade, and the price wns accordingly ad
vanced 10 cents. The consumers, of
course, will "nay the freight." California
spuds are toirted as the best, while east
ern stock rolling such as Colorado Pearls,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Oregon and other
potatoes ara discounted as to quality, al
though dealers recognize the fact that
eastern potatoes are as good ns tho^best
if they can ho brought through without
freezing. Carloads on track are said to
bc In prime condition. The freight on
eastern potatoes is 76c®51.00 per 100 lbs,
.■md the stock can bo had from growers
nt about SCO a bushel. At the outside
eastern spuds can be laid down in Los
Angeles at $1.35<<M.50 pel 100 lbs. and the
dealers can handle the stock at a fair
profit around $1.55 and $1.60, hut the com
bination are holding out for $1.65 and $1.70
for Highland Burbanks.
One prominent dealer In the local mar
ket will soon receive 25 carloads of Mm
nesota potatoes, and another dealer has
closed arrangements for heavy shipments
of Colorado and Minnesota spuds. These
dealers of course will sell at as high flg
rrres as possible.
The northern growers of Dnrbanks and
others In the "corn.-i" claim that they
are In a position to dictate prices, hut the
lr.cnl push assert that eastern spuds will
soon come In in such quantities as to
cause early decline In values.
There were no changes In quotations
on commodities at the call session yester
day except on Highland Burbanks.
Business in the general market was
quiet Vegetables are more plentiful.
The market was barren as to fish. Fish
ermen say It If dangerous to venture out
very far and as the cm-rents are swift
seining is impossible.
