MESSAGE DOES NOT
CAUSE BIG EFFECT
BROKERS RECEIVE COPIES OF
MESSAGE TO CONGRESS IN
ADVANCE OF ISSUE.
Have Time to Prepare for Anything
Which Might Occur-Recommen-
dations As Expected.

NEW YORK, Jan. Whatever may
be thought Of the influence of the
presidents message on the stock mar
ket it cannot be supposed there was
anything in it that was news in that
region. The full text of the message
was distributed to brokers offices
within few minutes after it's delivery
to congress, advance copies having
been in hand for that purpose. The
preparation of the document, more
over, has involved such widespread
consultation and such free preliminary
discussion by the author in public I'd
dresses that scarcely any passage OF
it could Re regarded as Il novelty.
Ever since the conference of rail-
road presidents at the White House
last Monday, the stock market has de-
voted most OF it's attention to taking
measures prompted by the views OF
the forthcoming paper The result
was seen in the state approaching idle
ness into which the market fell after
the message was published.
In the movement of special stocks
here and there which occurred during
the week it is possible to suppose that
action was prompted by particular
passages of the message.
Putting aside the question of how
far speculative action may have ant1c-
ipated the effect of the message, the
opinion is clear that grave weight
| must attach to the comprehensive plan
| set before congress for dealing with
| the corporation problem. The means
| of complying with the proposed law
| for federal charters received more at
| tention than any other phase of the
subject.
The easing of the money market
/. helped the speculation. The ruling
| rate for call loans was below six pei
| cent for the first time during the week
| Preliminary estimates of the weeks
currency movement pointed to a heavy
| cash gain by the banks, the high call
loan rate early in the week havins
i served, apparently, to attract large
sums here from the interior.

DuNs WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW

NEW YORK. Jan. 7.-R. G. Dun
and company's weekly trade review to-
morrow will say:
Not in a half decade has year
| opened with the business outlook 50
generally suspicious as 1910.
Some of the perplexing issues that
contributed to the crisis of 1907 still
| remain unsolved, While the question Of
high prices has become more acute,
but it would seem as if business con-
fidence were not going to permit
these things to interfere with the
further progress of industry and COM
mercc.
The optimism, which usually pre-
walls at~this season is apparently well
supported by economic facts. In the
great iron and steel trade which is so
basic, this spirit of optimism is par
ticularly conspicuous. Conditions are
not so pronouncedly strong in some
other departments. but with favorable
agricultural conditions and with no
eveHt-political or otherwise-to i'm
pair the confidence of business men
in the credit structure, there seems to
be no reason to doubt good year
The hide market is weak and with
Transactions light and uninportant.
All kinds of foreign hides are easier.
