BUSINESS IS VERY SLACK

New York, January 5.-Much of the early weeks elasticity in the stock mar ket was lacking today. Business fell off perceptibly and prices moved irregularly without apparent initiative. Gas stocks displayed marked strength. United States Steel held it's leadership in point of ac- tivity, but reflected intermittent selling. The financial district sees little ground for encouragement in the immediate fu- 4. ture of the steel industry Local trac- tions were inactive until the last hour. 7 when a general upward movement in In- <. terborough Metropolitan issues gave rise to the belief that developments favor able to that system would soon be an- nounced. -
 A fall in the Bank of Engand's pro- portion of reserves to liabilities bring ing this item down to 35. 40 per cent, the lowest figure but one in Il years, was not we'll received here. To1ay's showing was largely the result of government in terest payments aggregating $3O,OO0,0Oo Heavy shipments of gold were made by the Bank of England to India, South America and Holland, the whole amount ing to over S30OO,OOO The weekly state
 
 ment of the Bank of France reflected the heavy withdrawals incidental to pay ments fors the New Year.
 Shipments of s50O,OOO gold to Hayti Is supposed to be the proceeds of loan re- gently obtained by that government from our bankers.
 Figures published by the treasury de- partment at Washington indicate that the governments receipts are increasing They are already $3O0O0,0O0 over the pre- vious fiscal year, much of this accruing from larger internal revenues and cor poration taxes.
 Money conditions worked easier here to- day, the rate for call loans being no high CT than 5A per cent Numerous out-of- ., town institutions loaned freely around q that figure, and as low as AZ per cent. n Many belated railroad reports for Mo- vember were issued. Great Northern showed a decrease in freight revenues of $57O,o0O and a net decrease in earnings of S49OoOO. Fries operating expenses in- creased $174,OO0, with a net decrease of s2730OO. The Atlantic Coast Line report ed heavy increase in operating expenses with net loss of s15O,OOO. The Seaboard Air Line returns were more favorable in that the net for November increased s34.- GOO. This, however, is more than the total net gain for the previous four months. Larger freight earnings by the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific railway system resulted in a s4O0,000 net increase. The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, by reas- on of a, large reduction in cost of op- erations reported net gain for Novem- Der of s430,000.
 The bond market was irregular with es- pecial weakness in Wabash extension fours The days business was fairly large, with total sales, par value, $3,544,- 900.
 United States government bonds were unchanged on call.

FROM A PHILOSOPHERS NOTEBOOK

Few men like to be decorated with the
NEEDLE of their neighbors.
In argument, unlike aviation, great
many men are not finally landed until
they go up in the air.
The man who writes Gloomy Poetry is
something like the Farmer who uses a
Harrow for Reaper.
Some men refuse to open the door
when Opportunity knocks, because they
say she does not belong to their set.
If men would only realize that the
wee, small hours are no wee-er or small

them to better account.
1t is foolish for men to bemoan an
unmendable lovers quarrel. A girl who
will not patch up a lovers difference will
never darn a hush and's sock.
