Hundreds of jackies were given shore leave and as a rule they were well be- haved and added materially to the ac- tivity upon the streets, and incidental ly spent few dollars just to help the business interests. Of course there were a few that became half seas over and had evidently cruised into some place where they took on a cargo of that which intoxicates and even tan gled their sea legs. This shows that the lid is not on tight in New London on Sundays. in spite of the work of the police. the committee of fifteen and the state police.

CONGRESS TO ACT
ON TARIFF BOARD
At THIS SESSION
Senate Committee on Finance
Considers Suggestions for
Modification of Law.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-The Senate
committee on finance today considered
the various suggestions presented TO
Congress in connection with demands
for a modification of the law creating
the tariff BOARD. As the session today
was the first held this winter the mem
beers of the committee had had no OPP
p%ortunity for an exchange of views.
Several senator's expressed their be-
lief hat a permanent tariff commits
sion should be authorized and that the
membership should be larger than the
existing tariff board, which comprises
three members. 1t was the sense OF
the meeting that some action should
be taken during the present session
and Chairman Aldrich was authorized
TO name a Subcommittee to consider
the whole subject.

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The cotton
market opened steady and generally
unchanged to 3 points higher in sym
pathy with steady Liverpool cables,
but soon turned easier under commits
sion house realizing in the absence of
bull support, and during the. middle
of the morning ruled about 3 to I points
net lower. Spot interests bought
January but sold May, taking no ac-
tive part in the market, however. Much

Leading pulls seemed willing to give
the market some support around 1921
for May or about 8 points under the
closing price Of yesterday. and some
buying was encouraged by private re-
ports from the South, indicating a big
falling off in ginning during the las:
period, but while the demand a SUI
ncient to steady the market and cause
a slight rally general business con-
tinued quiet and prices still showed a
net loss of some 3 or 4 points at mid
day.
The market turned firmer after mid
day on bullish private reports from the
South, claiming an increased spot de-
mand and predicting bullish ginning
figures. Business did not broaden a
great deal, but early sellers covered

THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-Fayorable har-
vesting weather in Argentina eased
prices for wheat today. Advices from
Russia indicated a liberal movement
and served To emphasize the bearish
feeling Nevertheless, there IA not
much Selling pressure. although the
only definite development early in favor
of the bulls was a decrease in the
European visible supply. Cloudy con-
ditions prevailed in the American
Southwest, where lack OF moisture has
been a source of anxiety, but no heavy
rain or snow was shown anywhere in
the winter wheat belt, The opening
was a shade to Is to 4 lower. May
started at 95kG955s, a loss OF a shade
to Is, and declined to s5s.
Statements tha the conditions for
winter wheat southwest were the worst
in twenty years caused a rally. The
close was firm. with May at 951a@ss, a
net loss of q shade.
Big receipts caused considerable I'M
loading OF corn and weakened the mar
ket. May opened unchanged to i Off,
at 471km47l4, and fell to AZ.
Resting orders to buy proved an
effective sustaining influence for oats,
May started a shade down. at Ss5s, and
rallied to SS7sNS4.
With the run of hogs enlarging, as a
result Of cold weather. provisions turned
downward at the opening. Trade. how
ever. was lively and initial losses were
seon overcome. First sales showed a
decline of 21a to > TO 10. with January
1910 for pork, s.So0ss5 for lard and
a.4069.45 for ribs.

PRICES HARDEN
IN FINAL HOUR
OF DULL MARKET
Slight Ree0yeries Are Made
Over Closing Prices OF
Yesterday.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13-Price changes
were unimportant and business in light
volume at the opening of today's stock
market. With the exception of Lehiyh
Valley. which showed a decline of *,
the list sold off in minor fractions. with
an irregular undertone.
IL a. m.-Thc sluggishness of the mar
ket was relieved by a brief selling
movement, which forced L. S. Steel
down to Y. and also other leaders a
good fraction below yesterdays closing.
New York Central gave way IA. Slight
fractional r~ecoveries threw the market
into d~ullness again.
MONA majority of issues sold un-
der yesterdays low prices, with some
recovery before noon. The session as
a whole was the dullest in some time
and many of the semi-active issues had
not beer quoted up to noon. Out of a
total of 116, 600 shares which changed
hands in the first hour 1000 consisted
of u. S. Steel. Reading and Union Pa
cifc in the order named. Trading in
the second hour was even lighter. Re-
ports of another copper curtailment
agreement were without effect on those
issues. Bonds were steady.
l D. lower prices were re-
corded during midday OH a smaller
volume of business. The Increased
weakness of the copper shares in the
face of further efforts to control pro-
duction was accepted as proof of the
unsatisfactory state of that industry.
A sensational decline in foreign ex-
change. due apparently to an excess
of bankers bills. and resulting in some
Generalization. was another unsettling
factor. Amalgamated Copper declined
IA and Union Pacific. St. Louis South
western preferred, u. S. Steel n
American Beet Sugar.
2 p. m.-After the selling movement
had run itself out a long period OF
dulness followed, but there was a
gradual uplift To the market which re-
suited in the leaders making W pretty
much all they had lest.
3 p. m.-The market closed dull and
irregular. In the last hour prices
hardened generally anq r~ecoveries to
yesterdays closing level were numer-
Gus. The improvement a none too
well maintained, however.
