NEW York, February 4.-Money on
call easy at 12@2 per cent. Prime
mercantile paper, 4@5 per cent. Ster-
ling exchange quiet but steady at 1861
for go days and 1884 for demand.
Government bonds we're dull

fairly active, with a we'll distributed
business, and as a rule farther adj
vances in quotations. 1t is stated
that the coupons of S27 600, OCO OF

Erie second Consols have been de-
posted in accordance with the Drexel-
Morgan scheme.
StOcks-Stecks continued active,
with Lackawanna the most conspic-
uous. At the opening the market was
somewhat irregular, but early devel-
oped decided strength, which contin-
ued, with frequent moderate reactions,
until the middle Of the afternoon.
During this time prices advanced
from fractions b over per cent, the
coal stocks leading. On considerable
realizing later in the day there was a
small decline in nearly everything,
the market continuing weak until
shortly before o'clock. In the final
dealings renewed strength prevailed
and the market closed firm. The con-
tinued strength in Lackawanna ia due
to an increasing belief that the Penn
sylvania Company will secure control
of Reading, and put an end to the
coal troubles. To aid the upward
movement to-day Lackawanna was
made difficult to borrow, and as
much as 11-l6 wo5 had for twenty
four hours. After opening at 127s-a
gain Ct /! over last eyening-it
reached 1871 during the first hour.
There was quick reaction to 1924, a
tally of over / per cent, and then
= comparatively steady tone until
after l o'clock, when it yielded, sell
ing as low as 1854. 1t closed at 1898,
gain of 81. Delaware and Hudson,
in sympathy with the movement, sold
as high as 90A, but closed II lower,
with a net advance of only !, while
Central New jersey is down Il and
Reading I. With the exceptions
mentioned, the most active stocks are
generally fractionally higher. St
