ILs4hHDAH's STOCK MABEAr
Free Frem Disturbance Caused by Any
 Heavy Withdrawals of Credits in Call

Heavy Withdrawals of Credits in Call
 Loans.
 New York, Dec. 21-The stock mar ket was free from disturbance caused by any heavy withdrawal of credits in call loans to-day. There was no pres sure of forced liquidation in stocks Uncovered bear traders, with no pros pect of immediate urgent selling to en- able them to take additional profits, bought on a moderate scale to cover their short contracts. There was no evidence of a large demand from other sources. The greater ease in the mon- ey market was regarded with some doubts of its permanency. The part played in stock market liquidation in bringing it about was also held in mind. There was lacking confidence that a renewal of speculation would leave the money market exempt from fresh strin- gency.
 Indications pointed to a decided inn provement in the showing of the banks in to-morrow's bank statement A gain in cash is indicated sufficient to restore a considerable margin of surplus in the reserve of the banks. The action of the stock market during the week points to a considerable loan contraction having been effected. In view of the heavy re- quirements confronting the market, it is not believed that the resources in hand by the banks will be more than sufficient to meet demands, without any complicating factors, such as a renewed speculation. Advices from London pointed to notable recuperation of re- serve also by the Bank of England by receipt of over $3, OOO, 900 from Paris and over $500,000 secured ill the open market in London. Additional gold is expect ed to go from Paris to London this week.
 The days market offered few feat ures, The prominent place held by St. Paul in the recovery was not strange, in view of the violence of it's fall pre- ceding. The Hill stocks continued un settled to some extent and were slow to respond to the general upward move ment There was further weakness also in Reading, The speculation was, on the whole, restrained and the vol u:le of dealings small. The strong showing of the Southern Pacific annual report seemed to have more effect on Union Pacific than on the stock of the subsidiary company.
 Minor incidents of the day were the threatened strike of railroad yardmen in the neighborhood of New York and reports of damage suits against rail- roads in Texas for delayed traffic. There was some concession from the best prices of the day before the mar, ket closed.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales par value $1,514000.
 United States new fours advanced 1-4 per cent. on call

TATTOO MARKS NOT POPULAR
India Ink Designs May No Longer
Mark Sailors of Amer
lean Navy.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-Enlisted men in
the navy have instituted movement to
do away with tattoo marking, which was
formerly popular with sailors. Since
the conviction of Brooklyn man, through
the efforts of officers Of the Humane So
ciety, for mutilating the arms of young
boy by decorating them with India ink
designs, tattooers have shown unwilling
ness TO embellish the bodies of men who
are not known to be of age and as few
adults care to have their bodies decorated,
the practice may soon become a thing Of
the past.
The following description OF a deserter
from the navy shows TO what extremes
some men have gone in decorations which
cannot be removed:
Tattoo marks on chest shoulders, arms
and back viz, eagle, ship, woman, flag,
sailor, cards clasped hands, flag and now
ers
Tattoo marks are a ready means OF iden-
tihcation of deserters.
