NET CHANGES IN
 STOCKS SLIGHT
Trading Yesterday Alto- gether of Superficial and
 Unimportant Character

New York, February 3.-Trading in the stock market today was altogether of a superficial and unimportant character. The volume of business 1was lights and more than ordinarily restricted to the operations of the professional element. Net changes, except in the case of the coalers, which were subjected to some pressure, were slight. For the first time since the intro duction of Lehigh Valley shares in this market that stock, a 10 per cent dividend payer, sold under Reading, which pays only per cent. There was no known ee- velopment to account for this condition, but board room gossip had it that Ls- high Valley is selling .ex mystery, While Reading has yet to make it's much uia- cussed dividend distribution.
 As a matter of fact operations in these issues have been largely confined to cer- tain group of spectators and nave a'- tracted little attention elsewhere. Union Pacific and United States Steel were mcd- SerateIy active but frequently reflected seh- inc of a character which has marked tSese narticular issues for the past fort night. m
 CIa
 suit of it's rather favorable earnings TOT December, the net showing an increase of about $460,000.
 The Puget Sound division of that sys- tenn reported a gross increase Of sl49''V' which was reversed into a net decrease of s52 900 by reason of heavy increase ', oneratinr expenses. The Burlington system reported a heavy gross loss TOT December, which was pulled down to a very trifing net loss because or econohiies in operation. t4.a, The bank statement was notable chleny bhcause of the slight difference shown m the ..ayerager1 and actual tables. There was an actual cash loss of over $3Ooe,0eo instead of an estimated gain Of Slo,ooo while loans increased over $24,0oo,oOO Ex- cess cash reserve fell about $S,oOO'OOo to s40 .0O0 Today's statement was the ilrst of the year to show an actual cash loss
 Bonds were steady with no especial fea- tire Total sales, par Valne' agsfega'eu s2,020000.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call throughout the week.

POise Rather Than Action Distinguished Market
 for Wheat

Chicago, February 3.-Poise rather than action distinguished today the market for wheat Nevertheless the price level was raised just enough to surpass any pre- vious figure touched during the present bulge. Latest trading left quotations steady. the same as last night to Ac up. Corn finished at 1sc to i4c advance, oats unchanged to i,c higher and hog products varying from yesterdays close to an ad- ditional cost Of 10c. When wheat, almost at the outset. touched as high as s1.O4,s, profit taking became the order of the day. although the bulls pointed out that the United States visible supply was decreas- ing at more rapid rate than ever be- fore known, even during a year that wheat went to s150 for delivery in tho spring months.
 Despite the general selling the market today, however. suffered no important set back. being sustained by assertions that foreign consumers were now feeling .ae run extent Of the Russian shortage. ana that Canada with her surplus largely un- der snow and the remainder delayed by inadequate storage and railroad facili- ties would not be able to offer much re- lief for at least 60 to 90 days.
 Moreover, it was believed that the severe weather west would check re- cepts at Minneapolis and Duluth and that Argentina would not be able to meet the demand for prompt shipments to Europe. Export flour at St. Louis aided in giving steady tone to the market at the windfp Between the opening and the close May fiuctuated from s1 0S3s to s1 .oiss, with last sales a sixteenth net higher at

Some of the advertising ex- perts are masters of English, and a pe- rusal of the announcement of merchant disc for sale are about as entertaining as some of the better magazine articles.

 New York, February 3.-The Finan- cier will say:
 For the first time in number of weeks the New York clearing house banks reported a decrease in surplus reserve, the statement of actual con- dition for the week ending Saturday having shown contraction of $7,9S7,- 200 In that item The statement of average, however, indicated an expan- sion of $3l 1000 in reserve, the excess, according to the average system stand ing at $i6, 1000, and on report of ac- tual condition at $40,775S5O.
 The loan item continues to show rapid expansion, the increase for the week ending Saturday having been SEA- 145,000, bringing the total loans very near the record mark
 Preliminary estimates indicated a gain of about s9.O00,000 in cash from the interior, but the statement showed gain of about only one-half this amount. Net deposits by reason of the loan expansion rose SIT 75500 000
 The bank statement for some weeks past has been affected by very heavy financial operations, dealing particular ly with international loans and trust companies work in reorganiza tion, etc. and this accounts for the rise of nearly s135, 900 in loans since the opening of the new year There has been no demand for funds fin commercial and speculative lines amounting to more than fraction of the total increase
 The season for the flow of cash to this center is passing, but any shrink age in outstanding loan commitments may have the tendency 10 head sur plus reserves at q high figure
