TRADING STIMULATED
Bl EASIER MONEY
Other Favorable Conditions Produced
a Better Effect on the Stock Market.

New York, Jan. 6.-Many wide ad-
vances were reported in the prices of
stocks toda- and the volume of busi-
ness was sensibly expanded, but the
dealings were highly professional. The
underlying basis of operations was the
pronounced relaxation of the money
market. The conspicuous strength of
Il few stocks was the principal ele
ment in the general advance. OF these,
Northern Pacific was most prominent.
Hartman stocks were strong and an
assumption OF the benefits to accrue
to them from the supposed project af-
fecting the Hill properties. Another
rise in the price of copper in London
was helpful factor in the cheering
sentiment.

Divided in is Opinion.

Washington, Jan. 6.-That the con-

two damage suits coming to court
from the federal courts of Kentucky
and Tennessee. which We're brought
under the provision of the law.
The decision was announced by JUS
