than on any day wince the semipanic conditions of the I mlddcl of December last Although the l market became extremely Irregular and I at one time generally reactionary there I was a free broad market during thc I whole lay and thc closing was firm and active at a rally from the low point The icpQrt of the details of tho arrangements ar-rangements of the control of the ReadIng Read-Ing between the Pennsylvania and the Vanderbilt Interests caused the speculative I specula-tive Imagination to catch fire and operations oper-ations were hastily resumed seemingly Ion I-on the assumption that all the recent Ills resulting from an oversurplus of new securities se-curities and an inadequate supply of capital capi-tal to take them up hal been cleared away Thc conclusion was arrived at hy inference in-ference Hint further projects would bo pushed for the I harmonising of control l of the whole Eastern tf unIc line railroad and anthracite field with subsequent designs upon the soft coal field through the medium me-dium of the dlslribullon of control of Hockhll Valley among the same Interests Inter-ests that are to share the Reading control con-trol There scorned to be an impression that this would herald an assumption of a large number of projects of consolidation and merger which wore Interrupted by the stringency In the money market The prospect that this would multiply new securities se-curities again and involve heavy syndicate syndi-cate requrements seemed to have none of the recent terrors and new buying orders were poured Into the market this mornIng morn-Ing from every quarlcr including some by cubic from London It was obvious from the start that this demand was liberally fed by sales to take profits hy the large buyers of yesterday and the preceding days but the buying was sufficient to absorb this realizing for 0 time and to Initiate fresh advances here and there Reports that the dispute between be-tween the Pennsylvania and Gould Interests In-terests had been settled caused buoyancy In the Wabash There were subsequent demonstrations of strength In other Gould Blocks notably Missouri Pacific and Manhattan which Initialed movements respective in the Pacifies and the local tractions and which were not explained hy any news of the day Money continued tulle easy in spite of tho heavy new demands resulting from I the speculation and a strong hank statement state-ment was forecasted bolh by the large movement of currency from the interior and by the gain In subtreasury opera tioiiH resulting from thc payments l of Government Interest and thc transfers of currency from San Francisco Late in the day when the market had become reactionary a he let gained currency I ha tame t-ame Imports of gold were contcmplaed at an early day The rising money market In London the sharp rise In sterling nt Paris and thc indications that the bank of England is disposed to maintain the open market lat o discounts wore adduced as evidence evi-dence of the likelihood of lkelhood such a movement move-ment at an rarly date A more reasonable reason-able explanation of the reduction aside I from the natural profittaking was the persistent and heavy liquidation In Head lug due to the fears of holders that as a minority Interest they would have little ltle to hope for In the new position of the etocl The market wan supported at thu decline and the
