ALDRICH MONETARY PLAN
WISEST SINCE HAMILTON.
Asst. Sec'y of Treasury Says
Proposed Legislation Is Panacea

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan, 1&.-The
Aldrich plan for monetary legislation
mark the most profound and COM
prehensiyc attempt at constructive
financial legislation which the country
has Witnessed since the time OF Hamil-
TOM said A. Piatt Andrew. assistant
secretary of the treasury. today, in adj
dressing the business mems monetary
conference held by the National Board
Of Trade.
MI. Andrew dehned six existing def
cieheies in the present monetary sys-
aem, and explained the remedies Sug-
gestd in the Aldrich plan. Speaking Of
tho proposed reserved association, Mr..
Andrew said; with such an lnstitu-
ton in existence it is lard to see how
solvent banks could ever again be
forced to suspend. or how our domestic
exchanges could ever again cease to
operate.
THE Aldrich plan,' continued MI.
Andrew, does not attempt to repro-
duce In this country any institution ex-
isting elsewhere. The reserve associa-
ton is not like the R%eichbank or the
Bank Of France, or the Bank of Eng
land, yet 1t embodies among Its func-
tons the valuable features common to
all of these istitutions.'

MARKET CLOSES
HEAVY WITH RISE
IN COAL STOCKS
Reading Rises Two Points and
Lehigh Valley Advances
Only to Recede.

NEW YORK. Jan. 1s.--The stock
market opened active today. but with
ar irregular tendency. Three thousand
shares Of United States Steel sold at
77%QB as against 7Sh. yesterdays
close. Canadian Pacific declined 2
points n Reading showed some heav-
mess. Colorado Fuel advanced a point,
St Louis Southwestern preferred y and
Wabash preferred 70. Rock Island also
was strong.
Ii a. m.-Early dealings In tie stock
market were very much contised, many
of the important stocks h%uctuating
widely in either direction Canadian
Pacific made up half 81 its initial loss.
and there was a stronger tone general
ly after the opening, but free profit
taking and short selling depressed some
of the faVorites to the low point again.
Union Pacific in the early dealings
nuctuated from 176% TO 177h. Some of
the specialties and low-priced railroads
were notably strong, American Smelt-
ing. National Lead, i4aclede Gas, Cen
eral Electric, Rock Island preferred

Steel we're under pressure, while o
folk and Western, the eastern trunk
lines and some of the oranges We're
distinctly firm.
Noon-The i~rregularity of the MORN
ing session was probably due TO pro-
fessnonal selling of Reading. U. s.
Steel and the Gas stocks, on the theory
that a further advance was unwar-
ranted at this time. Norfolk and West
ern held firm in the face of q seml-ofi-
cial statement that runors Of an in
crease in the dividend rate was prema-
ture. The strength of American Smelt-
ing was ascribed to belated recognition
of the favorable semi-annual report.
The professionals apparently changed
their tactics toward Reading near mid
day, rallying it from 1864 to 15Ih. The
general undertone, however, was rather
heavy. Bonds were steady.

less, although prices IN the main held
steady. Union Pacific and U, S. Steel
showed a frmer tone and Lehigh va

D. m.-Tho market closed heavy, A
further rise in the coal stocks stimu-
lated buying elsewhere, and the list
moved up q fraction. Readings Use

touched $50. but they reacted a point
later.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-The cotton
market opened steady, at an advance of
3Q5 points on covering by recent sell

gain of from 8 to . points on old crop

tive at the start, became rather quiet
during the middle of the day, with
nothing to indicate any broadening of

trade interests and private advices
from the South, claiming a big spot
demand, with prices selling IL to 16
points over the closing figures of yes

lions, but the market seemed very
steady within two or three points of
