RALLY FOLLOWS SELLING

New York January 13-It is not cus- tomary to wait the actual occurrence of an expected event before taking action in the stock market to accord with the event. That fact was the main one il- frustrated by the action of stocks today in response to Saturdays disclosure of a restoration of surplus over the legal reserve. required Of the clearing house banks. The most important of the buy ing of stocks induced by this develop ment proved to have been already ac- complished when operations were re- sumed at the stock exchange today. There was a considerable incurson of outside orders, but stocks were literally sup piled to meet this new demand. although prices were bid up considerably higher than Saturdays level to accommodate 1t. Most of the new outside buying orders were executed at the higher level of prices of the first hour of the day. That proved also the most active hour in the day but notable lapse in the animation of the market occurred after that.
 There was an effective rally again after the realizing sales were suspended. The profit taking was conducted with caution and skill, the selling not having pushed progressively on the declines but on any advance the volume of offerings was quick to swell again Special attention was attracted by selling of another kind. small in itself, but of significant effect on sentiment. There were realizing sales on odd lots of stocks, bought outright in the demoralized period by small in- Yestors, on which large profits have since accrued.
 While the heavy aecretion of cash to the bank reserves revealed by the bank statement was accepted as assurance against further damage from money shortage for lending purposes, there was added consideration today to it's signif- canoe to active employment of money in business. The heavy decreases in the country bank clearings gave evidence in the same direction. Another feature of this tendency is the large offerings of national bank notes for current redemp- tion at the United States treasury which marks the beginning of the automatic tendency to contraction of the bank cir culaton.
 Railroad traffic officials corroborate the evidence of the bank elearngs by their testimony to the continued shrinkage in the freight movement This testimony in addition to actual earnings of some railroad systems had to do with the re- newed weakness of bond issues of sev- eral companies which have been the sub ject of unfavorable rumors for some time past. The recession in traffic returns is

COTTON MARKET
 GOES UP AND DOWN Opening Shows Sharp Advance
 On Liverpool Furry BREAK COMES ON SELLING
Reports of Strong Southern Spot Sit. uation Send Prices Higher, But Bears Hammer Down Fig
 ures From the Top.

New York, January 13.-After quite a sharp early advance the cotton market lost the gain, closing steady net un- changed to points higher Sales were estimated at 100000 bales
 The market opened firm at an ad- vance of to 15 points and after some ir- regularity showed a net gain of 15 to r points on the active months, as a result of covering and local bull support, which was encouraged by firm Liverpool ca bles, reports of strong southern spot hold CTS, reported better conditions in the financial world and better receipts. Later the market eased off under realizing. local bear pressure and hedge selling the latter following purchases in the south of last Saturday, according to cur rent reports.
 The failure of stock exchange house was factor in the afternoon, while some attention was attracted by reports that bankruptcy proceedings were involving cotton and cotton warehouses in some sections of the western belt. At one time the active months were 1 to 3 points net lower but there was a slight rally just before the close on covering. Private cables from Liverpool attributed the advance there to American buying. Ex- ports for the day were fully 25,OOO bales over the port receipts and New Orleans reported a good demand for spots. Houses with Liverpool connections were buyers here during the afternoon.
 Receipts at the ports today, 37,223 bales, against 50,305 last week, and S1,625 last year.

 Better to have loved and lost than to have been the other fellow.
 Tacks are stubborn things.
 It takes two to make a quarrel and three to make divorce.
 He who is born with golden spoon in his mouth often lives to hook the family plate.
 The proof of ths pudding is in thes morning.
 Trust in God but watch the ticker. Beauty is not always skin deep.
 He kills two birds with one stone who marries a widow with a family. Sweet are the uses of alimony.
