The New York crculsr OF Henry Clews says:
The money market shows somewhat easier
tendencies. Funds returning more freely from
the interior and the surplus reserve are rising in
consequence. The situation abroad is also favor
able in this respect. considerable ease prevailing
in London. Paris and Berlin. The great floods in
France causing n loss estimated at between
500 900 600 to 5000 600 600. must have some eft
feet in Paris although the reconstruction work
which will be required can not make any sudden
demands upon the money market. France IS
financially strong and optimistic so that disas-
ter Of this sort will only exert passing enect.
London is becoming more hopeful and a further
reduction in the bank rate is not improbable.
Europe is just exceptionally free OF inter
national friction. The situation abroad therefore
is generally satisfactory from the financial point
of view, -

STOCK MARKET
NORMAL AGAIN

NEW YORK. Feb. 5.-The ac-
ton of the stock market today
confirmed the impression made by
yesterdays market OF a subsi-
dence of the more acute appre-
bension felt Oh professed over the
business and political outlook.
Part Of this was due to the re-
quirements of the uncovered
short interest. which bought
stocks because there was no sign
of further pressure of liquidation.
Also. assurances were exchanged
between some of the operators in
the market that things looked
better at Washington" The only
published news from washington
bearing on stock market relations
was the announcement that the
federal Incorporation bill framed by
the attorney general would be
ready for Introduction in con
gress next week.
The bear party in the specula-
ton was somewhat intimidated by
the evidence of substantial de-
mand from investment sources at
the level to which prices were
forced by the weeks severe price
decline.
The foreign markets sent fa
vorable Influences, including de-
cline in the private discount rate
in London and an expectation
that reductions might be made
next week in the official discount
rates of the Bank of England and
the Imperial Bank of Germany.
Some attention was paid to the
judicial decision in the SO called
Danbury hatters' case as an ex-
ample of one phase Of the work
ing OF the sherman antitrust law.
News of the placing of a note
issue by the Hudson tunnels COM
pany was accepted as evidence of
an Improvement in the facility
with which capital could be en-
listed Only faint attempts were
made to contest the rising course
of prices, a sharp reaction in the
coppers after the opening meas
uring its greatest extent.
The buying on the advance. on
the other hand, had some remain
ing signs of hesitation and eau
tion. Prices receded before the
close and the appearance Of the
bank statement.
Continued expansion of loans,
in spite Of the heavy stock mar
ket liquidation, is in line with
the showing for several weeks
and must be ascribed to the
process of rectification of the
credit arrangements made last
fall when loans were shifted from
the banks to avoid a deficit and
at the same time save the specu-
lative position. The present neces-
city for this rectification must be
taken into account in estimating
the causes of the weeks heavy
liquidation in stocks.
The large decrease in cash re-
serve was another surprise in the
bank statement, as the known
movements of money indicated a
gain of over $4,000. 600 The de-
crease shown by the actual fig
ures reached over $4,000 600.
Bonds were firm. Total sales,
par value. $2.057,0 200.
United States IS have declined
