NEW YORK, January "a Noon
The same hesitation and weakness that
has characterized the stock market
since the novelty Of easy money has
worn OF, were again in evidence this
morning. The volume Of business was
light and at times there was almost an
absolute quietness while neither the
bears ror the bull appeared to press
for advantage. There was a rumor
that the bears would try for a break
in Union Pacific but there were no
signs OF any such movement up TO the
noon hour. 1t was noticed that there
were fewer strong spots in the list
than there were yesterday and the de-
clInes were less marked
There really was little in the way Of
interest in the morning session with
the average decline on the majority or
stocks about 1kqSa Of a point. Balti-
more ana Ohio, Great Northern and Su-
gar extended their losses to = full
point.
The ection Of the market was a littlo

s. fOundered around like a rudderless
ship. Tn ts--i INFLUENCES were more
or less ignored, having been repeated so
often that they are beginning 20 pail on
