Fractional.

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-The stock mar
ket showed a fair degree OF activity and
decided strength in early dealings to-

great cheapness of money and the in
creasingly favorable outlook for the
maintenance of peace in the Far East
Government bonds were unchanged.
Railroad bonds active and strong.
The first quotations in the stock mar
ket were generally higher, mostly about
