NEW YORK, Jan 8 The movement of
prices in today's stock market was CON
fused and irregular from start to finish
and little remained of the gains at the
end OF the day. The purpose of the move
1nent TO take profits was continued and
many of the most prominent stocks in
the recent movement were subjected to
lhls process. Meantime new stocks were
pushed forward into prominence.
An additional factor in the irregular
movement was the resumption of buying
OF some shares which We're subjected to
day.
There was little news to accompany the
various movements and the explanations
Tor them dealt more with technical
market conditions than with anything
Dearing on changes in actual values.
While the movement of prices carried the
majority of shares to record levels there
was group of important securities which
dld not rise at any time within measur-
able distance of previous high records.
These have been the favorites in the
new speculative advances of yesterday
and today. Pennsylvania and its allied
railroads are notable examples. the pres
ent price level ruling far below the maxi
mum touched in former stock market
campaigns The movement of Atchison is
stock was inclined to rest today.
In the United States Steel stocks a
tendency was manifest to alternate from
one to another, Yesterdays : rise in the
common giving place to steady realizing
today. while the preferred was pushed up.
ward with strong sentimental effect on
the whole market. The Southern Iron
stocks made sensational advances and
1umors were revived that the arrange,
mentS for the expected merger were be-
ing completed The high priced North
western Changers and Pacific moved up-
ward widely and easily, and old stories
of coming extra disbursements and of new
alliances played a part in the movement.
The rumor of absorption of the Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas by the Burlington
and of the Kansas City Southern by St
Paul We're used with effect. There were
other wide movements, but the character
of the factors which moved them was
similar to that in the cases named
Meantime there was free realizing in
Union Pacific, Reading. the coppers and
some other stocks. While the market
thus continued to show a degree of mixed
strength its action conveyed an impress
sion of more effect in sustaining prices
than that of Yesterday.
The falling off in the volume Of activity
added to the effect.
The money market showed further re-
taxation. but the continued frmness of
foreign exchange keeps alive the problem
of how far the decline i'm interest rates
can go without precipitating an outgo Of
gold.
The late reaction wiped out most of the
DAVIS gains and made the closing easy.

THE STEEL BRIDGE ROAD.

The Herald and News has frequent
ly called attention to the condition Of
the roads in this county and it is not
done for the purpose of criticising
the supervisor or amy one connected
with road work.
We have especially called the at
ten ion Of the business men Of New
berry to the road from Ncwbcrry to
the steel bridge, and the advantage it
would be to our merchants to put that
road in good condition. We have
stated that it would pay the town OF
Ncwberry to invest four or five
thousand dollars in making this a
first class road. We desire to repeat
this statement and to urge upon our
business men, and especially our
Chamber Of Commerce, the import
ancc Of looking into this matter.
The people on The Saluda side have
worked the road leading ont from the
steel bridge, and we are told that it
is now in good condition. This sec
ton Of Saluda county is one of the
most fertile sections of South Caro-
lima, and the farmers are all prosper
ous. They prefer to bring their cot
ton to Newbcrry and to do their trad
ing here, but we were told by one the
other day, who had come somc twcn-
ty-fivc miles. that if the Ncwbcrry
people did not appreciate their trade
any more. or nj least sufficiently to
put the road from Ncwbcrry to the
steel bridge in good condition, that
he would seek another market, and hc
is not alone in this position. The road
from here to the steel bridge in
many places is in very bad condition
and of course the whole road must be
measured by the worst places in tho
road.
We cannot understand the apparent
Indifference Of our business men and
especially our Chamber Of Commerce
to the Importance Of looking after
this particular road. Certainly they
do not realize the amount of trade
that Ncwberry draws from Saluda,
and they must come across this road
in order to get to Newberry.
We do not mean by what's said here
to minimize the Importance Of having
all of the roads to Ncwbcrry in good
condition. They should all be work.
cd, and the people in the country and
the people in the town should realize
the importance of building some roads
in this county, but in this particular
ease the town Of Newberry draws
large proportion of its trade from Sa-
ludn and that is the reason we insist
that the town Of Ncwbcrry will show
it's appreciation of this valuable trade
by getting active and busy in regard
to this particular road, which is only
nine miles long.

Much interest seems to center
around the arrival Of the Immigrant
ship, Wittckind, in Charleston on
Sunday. From the published state
ments, we did not observe that any
of the immigrants are headed towards
Ncwbcrry. One of the most pcrpleX-
ing questions before the farmers to-
day is the labor question and if these
immigrants will assist in the solution
Of this question, the wisdom of the
establishment of the bureau Of immi-
grafton will be demonstrated.
