The earnings statements OF The day were
all excellent. The statements of Louisville
and Nashville and of Southern Railway for
the first week of January may be men
toned. The increase in gross earnings for
the week made by the Southern was S25,5lO,
and the increase for the period since the
beginning OF the fiscal year was $l.s5s, 500.
The increase in the gross earnings of the
Louisville for the week was $4,000. The
continuance of the rapid gains in earnings
made by these two lines and by the Norfolk
and Western is one OF the most encourage
ing features in The entire market situation.
The securities Of all these lines we're strong
yesterday.

Baltimore and Ohio common advanced to
above 60 yesterday. The highest price
ever reached by the stock was 81 and a
fraction The preferred was also strong
yesterday. The two securities were bought
all day by insiders" and the stories of
Developments regarding Baltimore and
Ohio were repeated persistently and often.
Talk Of the retirement OF the preferred
stock and Of a dividend rate OF per cent
for the common may have some kind OF
foundation but IT is not necessary TO ex-
plain the strength Of the securities. The
fact that the company is now earning full
dividends on the preferred and about )
per cent on the common. stock. and that
the alliance with the other Eastern trunk
lines will ensure better freight rates 10
the future. and hence an even better show
ing OF earnings is enough 10 cause Oh
timism among insiders. The common
closed at so and the preferred at IS. It
is interesting to note that New York Cc.-
trail was also strong, with good net gam

highest price for the day.

one OF entirely satisfactory news develop
ments. and although at first these matters
did not prevent a sharp decline In the in
dustrial group there was yesterday de-
cided turn for the better in prices as well.
The opening was higher on London buying,
and during the entire day the advance con-
tinued until the close at the highest prices.
The gain for the day was all the way from
a fraction to points, and 1t was distrib-
uted all over the list, with few exceptions.
The outlook now is for a strong market to-
day and for a close at near the high prices
for the week. And according to conserva-
tive people there is a very good chance that
the bottom OF The present movement has
been reached and passed. Among the hope
full matters that received attention yester
day were the ease of money. all day low
ering from 10 ) per cent. the reduction OF
the discount rate by the Bank of England
and the Bank OF France, and the easing
up OF exchange on London until IL is now
slightly in favor OF New York. The money
situation is now undoubtedly better than
1t has been ar any time heretofore this win
ter. The chance Of exports of gold to Lon
don is now very remote. On the other
hand the banks are receiving daily large
sums from the interior, and the subtreas-
ury balance Is several millions in favor of
the banks FOR this week. The bank state
ment is almost sure to be fine one The
effect OF these various matters is that
money is plentiful, with supply much bet
ter than demand, IN fact.

One OF the most interesting securities
yesterday was Brooklyn Rapid Transit.
After the bad decline made by Transit on
Thursday many believed that IL would go
lower yesterday, and perhaps make a new
low price. As a matter OF fact, its ten
dency was upward all day, and its net
movement a good gain. The other traction
securities were also strong nearly all day.
II is now said that the Ford bill taxes will
be only 81 500 900. for the entire State Of
New York and that the proportion OF this
amount for the different traction companies
In New York city will be insignificant.
When this statement was made in the
street yesterday there was quick covering

would not surprise careful people If the
short interest we're hurt today in this st5ck.

Sugar was buoyant yesterday. though by
no means aggressively so. Its advance
was from ll3 TO lis. and the close
was at III "a. Sugar is a blind POOL
of the most fragrant kind There is
not a new industrial in the lot that lets
the public know SO little Of its affairs.
Who actually knows IL the surplus of this
company is 5000, coo or So. 600 600, or If
there Is any surplus? Who knows whether
the company has been earning money the
PAST year or losing money? Who knows. in
fact, If the dividend on Sugar is 10 be in
creased TO > per cent quarterly as a result
of harmony in The sugar trade. or cut off
altogether, because OF the defeat and ruin
Of the trust? And If a categorical answer
TO all these questions could be made. who
would know whether the Sugar insiders
intend 10 sell the stock down TO 30 or put
1t up TO 100?
The argument of the optimist regarding
Sugar is that the experience OF the past is
usually a very good one and that past ex-
perience with the Sugar Trust has been
most satisfactory to stockholders II is
pointed out for Instance that last year at
this time talk Of cutting off the dividend on
Sugar stock was quite as persistent as II is
now, but that la March nevertheless the

No RIVER AND HARBoR BILL.
Announcemen by the Chairman oi

Chairman Burton Of the river and harbor
committee has given out the following
statement: The committee on rivers and
harbors decided today not to report bill
at this session. While different arguments
were accepted as a reason for this conclu-
sion by different members OF the commit
tee, 1t appeared from a statement furnished
by the War Department last Friday that
on the 3ist Of December last a balance Of
1000 coo approximately was already avail
able for river and harbor improvements.
In addition 10 this amount estimates have
been filed by the War Department for over
$4,000, o05 more under continuing contracts
heretofore made, to be included in the sun
dry civil bill to be passed at this session.
This would make an approximate amount
available for the projects now under way
of s45, OOO.OOO In view OF the fact thai 80
large an amount was already available it
did not seem best to bring In bill which.
under the estimates presented, would prob
ably amount to S15.00.0o0 for Immediate
appropriations and s45.OOO,OOO TO be author
tied under contracts. in all s6O.000,OOO.
THE rise in the price of material is an
important factor in the situation; also the
general employment of contractors who do
river and harbor work. In some cases 1t
has been found difficult to obtain bids at
the price estimated and in other cases it
has been found difficult to obtain bids at
