In Yesterdays Stock Market-Shrink'
age in Dealings Comes With
Return of Quiet.

New York, Jan. 6.-The shrinkage
in dealings in stocks is accompanied
by a queting of the turmoil wherein
the market moved this week. Rock
island was watched closely as a pos.
sible further disturbing factor and its
weak decline started the general mar
ket backwards after an opening adj
vance. Professional operators GOV.
cred their short contracts and took
the long side for a turn. The manner
in which activity died out on the re-
covery indicated lack of conviction
in buying and left the sentiment un.
certain.
The market was inclined to con.
graduate itself on the perfunctory
manner wherein the report of the
state commission which examined the
exchanges was dismissed by Governor
Hughes message. The governors
opposition to the proposed federal in
come tax made a favorable impress
sion Preparations for important gov.
eminent borrowing was believed to
pay part in today's lowering of the
Bank of England discount rate as did
the normal relaxation of the money
market
The more active demand for time
money in New York continues, but
the call loans market showed a con
tinuing relaxing tendency. Money
lenders are inclined to bid more &C.
lively for mercantile paper.
Copper industrials were especially
benefited by the report that shut
down of the works in Montana on ac.
count of the switchmen's strike had
been averted. Storm damage and OBJ
struction of traffic weighed on the
values of some railroad stocks.
The late unsettlement of the mar,
ket seemed traceable to the conflict
ing views of Interpretation of Taft's
forthcoming messake.
