LIVELY BUSINESS WEEK
Bank Clearings Through

tanned at a Record Level

NEW YORK, March 11.-Yesterday' S
sudden squirt of seven points in Ches-
apeake and Ohio led to a much excited
conjecture as to the cause and was the
stimulating influence in to-day's stock
market. Suppositions as to the basis
various. Yesterdays rumor of an in
tended increase in the dividend to
per cent was a continuing factor and
gave rise to the general theory of a
policy of more liberal dividend dis
bursements on the part of the railroad
companies under the Pennsylvania
domination. This report was supple
mented by a story of a plan to form
a new railroad system with an outlet
from the Middle West to the Chesa-
peake and Ohio's Atlantic terminus.

The action of the stock market of
the early part of the week was a dis
appointment to the speculative .enthu-
siasts, but the demand revived with
the progress of the week and there was
a notable advance in special stocks,
which had Strengthening effect on
the whole list. The early hesitation
was due in no small part to the fail
ure of the transcontinental railroad
stocks to respond to the settlement of
the dissolution plan of the Northern
Securities Company, which results
from the Supreme Court decision of
Monday. The failure of this group TO
leap upward on the Northern Secur-
tiles decision was therefore more ia
vorably interpreted.
The spirit of skeDticism was in
creased by the admitted miscarriage of
the plans for q combination of the
Southern iron companies, which had
caused furious speculation in these
stocks. This episode impressed on
many the conviction that they had
been overcredulous in accepting un-
warranted assertions and shook their
belief in other stories which had in
duced them to buy stocks Another
unsettling influence was the transit
strike. Besides it's sentimental effect
it was a factor in obstructing business
at the Stock Exchange.
Decreases in gross earnings of some
of the railroads reporting for the
fourth week of February were regard
ed as significant, though railroad traf-
fic officials reported freight offerings in
such abundance that it's receipts were
limited only by the overtaxed car ia

poets have been brilliant, and bank

NOT ENTITLED TO FEES

City Attorney Long Holds Retired Po-

City Attorney Long yesterday ad-

policeman upon retirement from the

of the monthly fee of two dollars
which may have been contributed to

Long advised the Recorder that the
Senate bill referring to the destruc-

that two years must elapse after the
passage of the bill before any such
contracts on file in his office can be
