NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET


Ry Associate Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. bit is customary to
await the actual occurrence Of an expected
event before taking action in the stock mar
let to accord with the event That fact was
the main illustrated by the action Of
stocks today in response to Saturdays dis
closures of restoration Of a surplus over the
legal reserve required of the clearing house
tanks.
The most important of the buying Of stocks
induced by this development proved to have
already accomplished when operations were
resumed on the stock exchange today.
There was a considerable incursion of out
side orders, but stocks were literally supplied
10 meet this new demand, although prices were
bid up considerably higher than Saturday $
level to accommodate it. Most of the out
side buying orders were executed at the higher
level OF prices of the first hour of the day
That proved also the most active of the day
and there was a notable lapse in the animation
of the market There effective rally
eEain after the realizing sales were sus-
pended. The profit taking was conducted with
caution and skill the selling not being pushed
aggressively on the declines, but on any adj
vance the volume of offerings quick to
swell again.
Professional traders held the market when
they found these obstacles. Attention was
attracted by the selling of another kind, small
in itself, but significant on sentiment
This was realizing sales odd lots Of
stocks bought outright in the demoralized
period Dy small investors, on Which large
profits have since accrued While the heavy
accession of cash to the bank reserves re-
yealed by the bank statement accepted
as assurance against further damage from
money shortage for lending purposes, there
hwas added consideration today to its signi-
fiCance an index TO shrinkage in the active
employment of money in business.
Tho heavy decreases in the countries bank
cearances gave evidence in the same direc-
ton. Another feature of this tendency is the
large offerings Of national currency for public
redemption at the United States treasury
which marks the beginning of the automatic
tendency to contraction of the bank circula-
ton. Railroad traffic officials corroborate the
evidence of the bank cearngs by their testi-
mony to the convicted shrinkage in the freight
movement. This testimony in addition to the
revelations OF actual earnings of some rail-
read systems had to do with the renewed
weakness of bond issues of several companies
which have been the subject of unfavorable
rumors for time past
The recession in traffic relations is so severe
to bring into apparent doubt in some cases
the ability to earn fixed charges The tone
thus caused in the bond market made bad
impression as a sub improvement in the in
Nestinent demand for fixed interest bearing Sc
curities, is looked for the conclusive demon
stration of a fundamental betterment in the
outlook.

FOR TODAY
Ministers and Business Men open
Third Week in War Against sin
with Successful Street
Sessions

Tired after their Sunday services, but
dnublv enthusiastic over the fine record
of last week, Los Angeles clergymen
took ND the third week of the open air
MONDAY meetings yesterday with re-
newed force, and many eloquent au-
dresses were made at the street meet
ings. A.
Recently n WeIl-dressed man saw the
,ittle procession on its way to the meet
ing place at First ana LOS Angeles
streets and became interested IN the
movement. He followed, and at the
close signified his intention of espouslng
Christianity, and knelt in prayer IN the
gutter. This is but one of many incidents
that are daily reported at headquarters
at the rink In several instances whole
families have accepted religion ana lett
fine Headquarters extremely happy.
At Mercantile place DR.. Hugh X. Wal
ker. pastor of the Emmanuel Presbyterian
church. was the principal speaker. Evan
eelist Soltau followed with brief remarks.
Mr.. and Mrs. William Baker and Pro-
lessor Stout led the music. Rev. Mr..
Emmett had charge of the service.
DR.. Walker said in part:
"Paul feelingly looked out upon the
people on Mars hill with message of
Tesus Christ But many Of the assem-
blage left one side of their heads at
home-that which dealt with time and
eternity. They were careless and indiffer-
ent in spiritual matters.
Speaks Today
"As in olden times, Jesus Christ is
speaking to us today. He is everywhere
and will abide forever. Atheists have
been trying to tear down the Bible, but
il stands as the greatest book in the
world.
'Every one who puts on his thinking
cap comes in contact with Jesus Christ
who stands as the unique character and
the greatest on earth.
Jesus Christ is our judge and mediator
and is ready to save us all. He may be
likened to a judge on the bench who
has sworn to deal with people brought
before him in court strictly according
to law His son is prosecuted and
brought before him. He is in great dis
tress in behalf of his son, but he is
Obliged to punish him to the extent of
the existing law in the case. The son
has no means and out of love the father
pays the fine. So it is that God sent
his only begotten Son into the world to
pay the penalties of our sins"
Evangelist Soltau followed with brief
remarks describing the lifeline thrown
out in distress at sea, with spiritual APP
plication.
At the winston street meeting Dr. w.
A. Lamb was the speaker. He said In
part:
'The average life of a man in this
world is thirty-two years, and even If
the Individual is able to prolong his
days. the span Of earthly existence is
soon over.
Man Is Spiritual
MAN is more spiritual than material.
and the life in the world beyond Is
throughout all eternity.
''rhis being true, l hold that it is
natural for us to turn our attention to

CHICAGO, Jan 13.-The wheat market opened
FIRM on fairly active demand, which was based
on the strength OF the Liverpool market Be
fore the end of the first half hour, however,
prices had declined nearly cent profit
taking. Then a bear raid, led by a leading
commission house, caused a further break
about the middle Of the day. There was con-
siderable changing from May to July delivery,
between two options.
AT the close the market was very poorly
supported, would-be buyers being held back by
the absence of news to the crippled wire SER
vice. Buying by shorts during the last hours
caused rally of nearly one cent from the low
point. The close was steady.
May opened unchanged to %Dhc higher, at
Si.O5ss to s1.05%@1 05%, advanced TO slO5a1 .0e.
and then declined to $103B The close was at
81 041k@LO4sz.
Liberal receipts and lower cables caused
moderate weakness in the corn market early
II the day. Sentiment however became trifle
bulish during the last half of the session, ow-
ing to a possible increase in the movement be-
cause or severe STERN. The close was steady.
May opened AG9sc lower at 597sc to 59%c, sold
up to 6Olsc and then declined to 59%c. The
close was at Coo
