Market is Relieved Somewhat
of Active Weakness.
DEMAND CAUSED BY BEARS
Pause in the Liquidation Of Rubber
Shares in London Relieves Anxiety
70 Some Extent-New York Call
Money Rate Causes Some Suspicion.
lRy Associated Press.l

NEW YORK, April 21.--The stock
market today was relieved to some
extent from the active weakness.
which sent prices rapidly downwards
Yesterday. The profound dullnesS
which overcame the dealings at the
advanced level OF prices. was more
striking feature than the recovery
itself and had It's effect in begetting
distrust of the recuperative power OF
the market. The demand which car
ried prices upwards was ascribed TO
the bear element in the speculation.
There was no more positive factor
discoverable in the buying.
A pause in fine liquidation in rub
Der shares in the London market re-
lieved anxiety to some extent of an
immediate collapse in the unstable
position, growing out OF the wiid
speculation there, but the conviction
remains that the pricking OF that
bubble must come.
The rubber course in London and
the initiation of credits, presumably
accompanying it, are believed to be
related 10 the solicitude manifested
by the Bank of England to continue
the accumulation OF gold reserve
The unresponsiveness q the New
York call money rate TO this move
ment is looked upon with some sus-
picion of a fostered case. The con-
froller's abstract of national bank re-
ports as of March %, disclosed the
heavily expanded state OF bank loans
the country over.
A factor in holding the speculation
in check is a desire to await the re-
spouse OF the market to the dividend
action on United States Steel next
Tuesday. The discussion of reducing
pig iron production, was responsible
for a break in great Northern ore
certificates in today's market.

INFORMATION OF IMPORTANCE
TO THE CITY,

Information of the greatest interest
and importance to the people OF New
port News was brought out during
the examination of witnesses in the
annexation proceedings at Warwick
: Court house yesterday, not the least
item being the statement by Alder
man {. II. West, chairman Of the
Joint finance committee of the coun-
Gil, that all of his statements con-
corning the financial condition OF the
city made during the past few months
were based upon an impression that
$2I, 900 already deducted from the
general fund to cover the expense of
permanent street improvements and
the erection of new school build
ing, already has been set aside in
special fund. Because of this
misapprehension, Mr.. West has been
Iaboring under the impression that
there was just $2i eco less money
in the city's treasury than actually
is there.
With this information in the hands
of the public and the members of
the council, 1t IS practically certain
that retrenchment will not be car
ried to the extent of cutting the
salaries of city officers or employees.
even il this would have been done in
any event This, OF course, will be
gratifying to the officers and en-
ployes, and, We believe, to the com
munity at large.
However. the fact that we are in
letter shape financially than the
chairman of the finance committee
had supposed is no good reason for
Many of the recommendations of the
retrenchment committee should be
put into effect regardless of the con
dition of the city's treasury. Many
OF the actions recommended would
be wise and expcdient in any event.
As Mr.. West explained on the witness
stand. 1t is essential that the city
have a substantial working balance in
its treasury; IL would be poor bust
ness to spend all of the city's income
simply because 1t is coming in. Even
II there were million dollars in
the treasury, no more should be
spent in maintaining the city's depart
menis than an economically wise ad-
ministraiion of the affairs Of the
municipality demands.

ton given in the annexation hearing
was contained in the list of occupied

MONEY RAISED;
W0ODMEN HAPPY

Last night there was great rcjoic-
ing ut the meeting of the local camp
OF the Modern Woodmen of America,
when II was announced that the last
cent of the $25O.OO fund wanted for
the purpose of erecting and maintain
ing "Grand Junction Cottage Tent
at the famous Modern Woodmen of
America sanitarium at Colorado
Springs, had been paid in and would
be forwarded to Colorado Springs to-
day.
Last June n committee headed by
Tony +. Flucken took in charge the
matter and started out to raise by
modest subscriptions among the
Modern Woodmcn the S2oO.OO fund.
MIR. Flucken has worked in season
and out of season on this matter. His
enthusiasm and his earnestness never
wavcred and to his tireless and faith
full efforts are largely due the success
of the undertaking.
The plan of establishing n cottage
tent at the great sanitarium where
the white plague" is being so sue
cessfully fought and where members
OF the order may receive care and
treatment at nominal expense, has
been detailed previously by The Sem
tinel.
