GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
New YORK. Feb. 0.--Government
bonds dull and steady
Railroad bonds active, closing about
evenly divided between advances and de-
clines.
The first setback In the remarkable
movement IN coal stocks, which within a
short time carried prices up about 20 per
cent, occurred to-day. The opening was
somewhat irregular, Lackawanna show
ing decline Of \ Delaware & Hudson
was up 4. The rest OF the list showed
slight change. In many cases there was
n slight advance early. This was followed
by a decided break In Lackawanna and
Delaware G. Hudson, the former selling
down from 1914 TO 1914 on very
heavy sales. Delaware & lIud-
son from 1919 declined TO l0l
before IL o'clock. Central OF New Jer-
sey from 52s, declined TO 501. The move
ment In the rest OF the list was less i'm
portant, but was In sympathy with the
coal stocks. There was loss OF frac-
tions to over ! per cent, Pacific Mail
selling down from JSl to 5G1, and Union
Pacific from 531 TO 90. The break In
these two stocks was due IN part to ru-
hiolo VI NpiulnE hhNNlhN lNElHlubluH III
congress. After midday the market
again became strong, Lackawanna re-
covering IA, Delaware & Hudson 4, Cen
trial OF New jersey N, Pacific Mail /
and the rest OF the active list fractions.
Later the fractional decline, except In Il few
feverlsh streaks, was followed by more
quiet, steady tone, which continued to
the close. The sales were 490,043 shares.
