FINANCIAL WORLD
 WATCHES CAPITAL Stock Market Interested in
 Washington DULLNESS PREVAILS Recent Developments Did Not Dis turb Big Banking Interests.
 Abundance of Money Re-
 A ported on Hand

New York March 1.-The eyes of the financial community were again focused on Washington today. The progress of events at that center was watched with the keenest interest, although the an- nouncement of an extra session of Con- gress seemed to excite less apprehension. Extreme dulness prevailed throughout the stock market session. which was 2 characterized at times by an understone of strength London prices for our se- . curities closed higher and this advantage was more sustained at the opening of the local market There was little dsposi- tion to carry this gain to great lengths, However, and the net result was rather negligible.
 That the big banking interests are in no wise disturbed by recent developments was again attested today by the purchase for, international account of s25,Oo0,oeo first mortgage 4 per cent bonds of the Puget Sound division of the St. Paul railroad. This announcement is of espe- cial significance because of the recent weakness of St. Paul shares accompanied by rumors of possible dividend reduc- ton. Today's announcement may be taken as putting temporary quietus on such reports
 European advices report an increased abundance of money and easier discounts in London, which is likely to give rise to a renewal of the early weeks reports Of a further reduction in the bank rate be- fore the end Of the month. London and Paris bankers are reported to have some more American financing under consider aton, the details of which are likely to s become public in the coming week. i. Imports of dry goods and merchandise for the week were about $2,OO0 600 below those Of the previous week, but slightly in excess of the same>in 1910. The total since January 1 falls short of last year l imports for the corresponding period by : over sl7000,000
 The stock market lost all it's early gains fin the final hour, when 1t seemed certain that an extra session of Congress would be called.
 New York Central fell below it's bottom urice of last February and new low rec - ords for the present movement were nu- merous There were some recOveries at the close which was moderately active and unsettled.
 For the first time in many weeks the bank statement was utterly at variance with forecasts Instead of an expected gain in cash the actual table showed loss of over $3,OO0. .ooosaa The actual loan increase of about s1o,oO0,o00 occasioned no surprise, because of the uncertainties in voived in the iieavy March dividend and interest disbursements. The actual total cash reserve of the banks is now 21O per cent. compared with 2S.04 per cent last week.
 Bonds were fairly steady on moderate dealings United States government bonds, 4s lost 4 on the week. Total sales par value $1,S7600O.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, March 4.-(Special.) Jour market, though lower, was rather steadier than yesterday. It appeared as if support was given to May on each point down, while selling orders in the new crop found few buyers. Outside factors continue to be against the market, with the effect of check ing the buying of those who are im- nressed by reported intention to ship n large portion of our stock of cotton to Havre and Bremen.
 The market closed steady. but with a disposition to look for a lower Liver pool on Monday

Then Father Collapsed 7
From the Saturday Evening Post,

From the Saturday Evening Post
 The new governor of a western state has two sons. One Is big and husky like his father, but the other Is more slight; and at times he rather vexes his father by the affectation of rah-'rah- boy clothes and a general air of lassi- tude and dudishness.
 The two sons and the father were in the library one night and the name of prize fight referee came into, the con- versation The 'rah-'rah boy had been sitting by twiddling his thumbs, but his ears pricked up at the mans name and he drawled; T rather lilte that chan. He's all right"
 What do you know about him?" the other brother asked, rather contemptu- ously--
 "Oh, he gave me shade the best of 1t one night"
 'Gave you the best of it?'' both father and brother shouted.
 "Yes; you see, fight under the name of Young Ryan and he counted pretty slow one time when I was down."
