DOWNWARD TURN IN STOCK MARKET Wintry Weather Adds to Gen. eraI Stagnated Feeling BANKS TOO FULL OF MONEY Cash Is Still Flowing In to the New York Banks and Money Is Cheap,
 But It Is Not Freely Used
 By Brokers.
BANKS TOO FULL OF MONEY

New York, January 24.-The extreme dullness, approaching at times stagna- ton, of today's stock market, was partly attributable to the indictment weather, which diminished the attendance at the stock exchange to a notable extent. Even the coalers, which have declined greatly on the score of the poor business caused by the open winter, failed to secure any advantage from the wlntry outbreak and were in fact amongst the leaders of the depression. This was due, in part, to the sympathetic effect of the special weak 2 ness of Delaware and Hudson, which has shown bad effect from the reported note issue. Another note issue was reported today by the Missouri Pacific to run two years and to bear per cent for the purpose of providing means to take up notes for s6.0O0,000 maturing in April
 These issues of temporary obligations at high interest rate are commented upon as leaving open the question of how far the easing money market has opened the way for new capital issues The re- turn flow of money to banking reserves evidently goes on in an undiminished tide The knownsfnovements of money for the week, according to the estimate of the most trustworthy authorities, indicate a gain in cash by the banks of about s15,- 100000. Last weeks experience, when the estimate of a $1O.OOO,OO0 gain, compared with an actual influx of upwards of s26- 0oo,0OO of cash to bank reserves, inclines opinion to look for some such excess over the estimates again this week.
 The action of the money market gives aboundant evidence that last autumn's Slo00O0,0O0 of gold imports and s54.OOO GOO of bank note expansion are now leaving their results of plethoric conditions In the money market with the turning back of the sums then driven into hoarding by the panic. Money continued to press on the market for caf1 loans on account of both the local and out of town banks today. and no better rate than per cent could be procured for it. Rates for time loans also continued to yield and the demand TOT more paper to broaden. The with drawal of treasury deposits from the New York banks has begun, without checking the downward tendency of money rates.
 There were some considerable fiuctua- tions in prices today, but their variation indicated the activity of the purely pro- fessonal class in the market Speculative operations of the larger class are on an insignificant scale. Reports of the in- tended cutting in half of the leather out put for the coming year and rumors of one or two minor business embarrass- ments were factors in the dav's market
 One of the downward fluctuations of prices was in progress when the market closed.
 Bonds were irregular; total sales, par value. s2.5O4,OGO
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

SLUMP FOLLOWS ADVANCE

New York, January 24.-There were sen- sational fluctuations in the cotton market today as result of conflicting reports concerning the labor situation in Lan- eashire The close was steady at net de- cline of to : points on near months and to points higher on late positions. Sales were estimated at 50QoO0 bales.
 The market opened Steady. but irregular at decline of points to an advance of 5 points. There was q renewal of the re- cent selling movement. but after some ir- regularity prices worked up to net gain of to Il points on covering, buying by Liverpool and bull support encouraged by favorable reports from Liverpool claiming that settlement of the labor troubles was practically certain. March sold at 11.31c and May at Il 3Sc on this bulge. but shortly after midday the market be- came sensationaly weak, owing to pri- vate cable from Liverpool stating that the conference of operators had broken up in anger, and that no settlement had been reached.
 Inside of 15 minutes after this cable was received March had declined to 10. Ssc and pddy to lUyfc, or 4l and 43 points below the high point of the morning. 62 points under the close of last night and s4. 10 to Sf35 bale under the high level of last Monday There was heavy covering at the decline, and in the last half hour the market advanced almost as rapidly as it had previously declined on a report that the labor troubles had been officially set tied. March closed at Il .15c and May at 11.25c. or 27 and 2s points up from the lowest Sentiment was very confused after the close, and traders are anxiously awaiting reliable information as to the actual state of affairs abroad.
