NEW YORK, Jan. l3.-The stock market
failed to distinguish itself in any manner
until late in the day. The opening was ac-
tive and quite uncertain. 1t looked as
though the bull pool had undertaken a pretty
large job and needed some help to make it
an undoubtcd success. The outside
public are not buying stocks
for investment as much rs they were and
the bull clique are all loaded up to the muz-
zle with goods which no one seems TO want
very bad at the price asked for them, still
they are rather gritty in their feelings and
determination, and seem to act us though
their salvation depended on holding on and
keeping the market up i! possible. When
they conclude to unload and get out of the
deal there will probably be little spurt of
vigor with heavy selling, after which the
market will fall off 10 a normal and healthy
level again. President Butler, OF the New
York Central railroad. telegraphs from For
tress Monroe denying the rumors of his
resignation and i'll health. he is on pleas

about to go on protracted cruise with his

tnst ne did not intend to leave town
until the middle or latter part of February.
He will go to the Florida coast and may run
over to Cuba. Cammack has gone south, but

himself was said TO be buying New York
Central and 8, ling Lake Shore. 1t was ex-
pected that the Pennsylvania company would
this week refuse to restrict its output OF coal
for the present year. Vanderbilt brokers
were bulllsh on Northwestern and New York
Central, and advised their friends TO buy
both on the breaks and hold them for par.
Union Pacific is marked for IS II the con-

had denied the in junction asked for To pre-
vent that road from paying its last dividend
There was also report that passenger rates
between Buffalo and Chicago were again
very much demoralized. 1t was well
into the afternoon hours before a change
Tor the better made It's appearance. Lake
Shore repeated Its tactics o: advancing from

Culon Pacific gsirsd g sOiEt and the re-,
mainder were not much behind hand. The
room traders, who we're all working on that
side, turned In and covered at about the top
figures later in the day. Illinois Central

an active trade in West Shore bonds, and
they fell from 3s to 36. Tue market appears
to be In the hands of few professionals who
manipulate 1t for small turns. The public
do not appear TO be- buying the stocks to any
exteut. The matt stay OF the bulls is short

load easily apd hope for b.tter times.

MANKATo, Mimi, Jan 13.-Hon. Schuyler
.ifax, Of South Bend, Ind, cx-vice presi-
mt, died IN the Chicago, st, Paul, Mime
polls s. Omaha passenger depot at this
,lace at 1920 this morning, of heart disease.
Mr. Colfax arrived in the city on the morn
ug train on the Milwaukee road, and, after
inuuiring the distance 10 and direction OF the
Omaha depot, walked to that place, dis
tance OF about three-fonrths Of q mile, while
the mercury stood at 30 below zero. Upon
arriving at the Omaha depot, he inquired Of
Mr.. Chas. Dauestron, baggageman, where
the gentlemeu's waiting room was, and
Immediately went in, where three
gentlemen were seated waiting for the west
bound train There was nothing in his
manner when he entered the depot to attract
tie attention Of the trree other men, Frank
Struuk, OF Lake Crystal, and Frank p. Rand
and Fred II. Leighton, Of Minneapolis. They
noticed that he was breathing hard, but
thought nothing o. it, considering that fast
walk was the cause He looked out Of the
window aud at a map on the wall and then
seated himself upon 4 bench in the room,
crossing one leg upon be other knee. About
i've mlnutrs after he entered the room Mr..
strunk noticed his leg drop from the knee
upon which it was resting and that
HIS FACE WAS GROWING PALE.
vne gentlemen In the room FASTENED to his
assistance, thinking that the sudden change
Of temperature bad caused him to faint, but
he gave one gasp and was dead, never having
spoken after entering TIE room, his last words
who had Informed him whore the waiting
nom was. During this time no one knew
the man who had passed away so suddenly
until letter was noticed IN his pocket di-
rected to

THIS thunderstruck those ln the room, and
led then 10 suspect that the person who had
lust breuthcd his last was the ex-vice presl-
dent. Other letters found upon his person
confirmed his Identity and left no doubt that
the body wus IhHt Of Mr.. COlfaN. Ihis was
the tirst ntimatiou that be was in the city,
no one having recognized him before. Cor
pncr Paddock was notified, aud during the
afternoon held an inquest at the office Of
