/ NEW YORK, Jan. PA more cheerful
temper prevailed in Wall street today and
the record was reflected in spasmodic
! bursts of comparative strength and ami
nation in the stock speculation. The i'm
provement was not uniform, however, as
the more confident tone was based upon
expectation of continued easy condition
of the money market. and the belief that
the Withdrawals of gold for shipment on
/ Saturday will be a nominal amount The
impression that the proposed Monroe doc
trine resolution Of Senator Davis would be
either postponed or defeated caused a
feeling OF relief in financial circles which
may or may not have been justified.
Considerable favorable significance was
also attached to an announcement that
an EngnSh corporation would subscribe
| to 100000 of the new issue of bonds.
The market opened firm and advanced
to the extent of L per cent. we're soon re-
corded in some instances. The improve
ment was checked soon after the END OF
the first hour, when a slight reaction &C.
CURED. The upward movement was soon
resumed, however, and at the top figures
gains were scored of 1Q19s per cent. in
Sugar.
Late in the day an attack was made on
the industrials and material declines were
effected in that class. The railroad stocks
also sagged, but the losses in them We're
only fractional. Sugar fell IA on Iumors
of impending measures in the New Jer-
sey legislature to forfeit the charters of
the company. Western Union was press
ed for sale to a comparatively large ex-
tent despite denials by leading officials
of the unfavorable rumors in circulation
regarding the property. The market
closed quiet and steady with slight gains
general in the railroad list.
The bond market operators were on a
decreased scale so-t the aeo total dealings ag-
Governments were decidedly lower in

mile for the national encampmsnt
next summer. by the announcement
that the 500 line and it's connections
had agreed to grant that much-wauted
rate Inasmuch as this means a cent
annie rate, not only in the territory
of the 500 and the Canadian Pacific,
but from Boston, New York, Detroit,
Buffalo and other competitive points,
the committee feels sure that the
Western Passenger association, which
has heretofore refused the rate, viii
be compelled to grant it. The Pythians
contend that as the rate had been
granted the c. A. r. encampment at
St Paul the week following, they were
entitled to the same privilege. De-
velopments will now be eagerly
watched.
1t is understood that the st. Paul e.
Duluth and the Grand Rapids & In
diana will join in the cent-a-mile rate,
thus tapping all western business as
well as the territory to the east OF
Chicago.
The Central Passenger association is
believed to be ready to grant the de-
sired rate.

trouble adjourned this noon and may
meet again tomorrow. No agreement was
reached today and the other roads were

into the association. 1t will probably
come in after a time. but it demands con-
cessions the other lines are not willing
to grant. The aforesaid concessions are
announced to be of mo public interest"
The western roads are not prepared to
accede to the demands of Commander
Walker, of the G. A. r., regarding the
extension of tickets of the annual en-
campment. They say to give these tickets
a thirty day final return limit. as demand
ed by Commander Walker, will open the
door wide for all sorts of decentralization.
and this they are very anxious to avoid.
There is a general feeling among the
roads that the executive committee OF
the C. A. r. will not back up the COM
mander in the stand he has taken
