THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS

The stock market was strong and active on
large and well-dstributed volume Of business.
Weakness in the foreign markets caused some
hesitancy In the early dealings. while natural
reactions on proit-takng sales resulted in irreg-
ularity at times. but in the greater number of
issues last quotations not far from the
best figures Of the day. with substantial gains
IN many stocks. The enormous amount OF new
money available for investment this month
(January interest disbursements). the general
ease OF money throughout the country and easier
discount markets abroad are factors upon which
the bull element bases its expectation OF no i'm
mediate irnpo. mt setback in values And It Is
q pretty solid foundation for optimism. The in
dustria securities OF merit are. according to
Street gossip, booked for higher prices. and the
low-priced railway stocks, like Chicago Great
Western. ST. Louis and San Francisco, and Mis-
souri,. Kansas and Texas. are included in the
group Of securities that promise important ad-
vances in the new year. The last-named stock
It is reported, has recently been quietly pur-
chased by foreign houses and 1t is understood
that the company will profit from the Alton deal
when perfected. Every stock the list has Its
friends this year. but the poorly Informed oper-
ator ought to inquire about all the companies in
which he contemplates investing or specializing.

is pertinent TO remark that only one-half Of the
authorized capitalization has been issued. the
remainder being held for future use. including
the acquisition of other properties. Pan Han

people who apparently have intelligent ideas re-
earding the value of stock and the future rela-
ton OF the minority holdings to the Pennsyl-

Consideration For Humanity Deters
Them From Routing Guerin.
Paris. Aug. 19.-It is now said M.
Lasies, anti-Semite. deputy from
Condom district of the Gers, has de-
cided to discontinue further negotia-
tions with M Guerin. General Jacquey,
who is republican member of the
chamber Of deputies. Is also dlscour-
aged and has left Paris.
A semi-ofllcial note Issued says:
Having consideration for humanity
above all other things, the government
from the beginning discard the idea Of
storming M. Guerin's house or the Sc
curing Of the accused by mere force.
Measures preventing M. Guerln from
communicating with the outside world
as well as preventing or dispensing al
assemblages, will be maintained, how
ever, as long as possible.
M. Guerin decided last night to en-
eTgetically maintain his own PROPOSE
tions and refused to accept those pro-
posed by General Jacquey M. Guerin's
decision not to surrender was deliver
ed after a deputatlon of the National
Defense group had waited on him and
Informed him of the contents Of the
semi-official note.
There we're slight disturbances this
evening in the Rue de Chabrol, In
front of the building where NJ. Guerin
and the anti-Semites are entrenched.
The police several times charged the
