NEW YORK. Jan. THE early
promise of large business in stocks
Tor the day was not maintained in the
later market The dullness which in
tervened was due to suspension of
speculative prices between the con-
flicting influence of marked strength
in one, and speculative favor ana
weakness in another. The irregular
opening was followed by an active
buying movement which caused
fairly comprehensive advance. Dis
ttnct lines of cleavage in the movement
then developed. In Union Pacific,
Reading and Amalgamated there was
obvious selling pressure and an i'm
portant distribution going on which
was interpreted as movement to
take profits on the part of those whose
speculations last week, had SO much
to do with the stirring up Of the spec
"lative revival. There was no change
in the; conditions which were suppos.
ed to have melted this buying. There
were perceptible, however, some diff
ferences in the construction placed on
these conditions, and these had to do
with the tone of the public discussion
of disclosures Of affairs of the Harri-
man roads brought out in the course
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion's inquiry.
The effect of the power of these
companies was manifested by the
suggestions that the showing might
in itself, invite measures of hostility
and repression by the government

added effect on prices. The later
