Washington, Dec. 24-The vital le- gal battle in the impeachment trial of Judge Robert W. Archibald of the com merce court opened today when the house managers and attorneys for the accused udge submitted in printed form to the senators arguments as to whether an official may be impeached for acts which are not the subject of prosecution by indictment or informa- tion in criminal court The argu- ments are regarded as important be- cause no claim is made in the Arch bold case that the acts charged con- stituted crimes or misdemeanors pun ishable in the courts. They also dis cussed the disputed point of whether an official may be impeached for acts done before he entered upon his ex- isting office.

clearing house banks of this city reported
moderate decrease Of So, $4,000 in cash
for the week ending February 10. The
loss was less than had been anticipated,
and the expected shrinkage in surplus
reserve was further minimized by the
fact that the met deposits Of the clearing
house banks fell $5.5SSOOO, thus lessen ing
reserve requirements. The net result,
taking the report of actual condition as a
basis. was a decrease Of So, $4,000 in ex-
cess reserve. the present surplus above

in loans was traceable for the most pal
to trust company operations. The state
ment based on averages did not differ
materially from the actual condition
statement except that the excess reserve,
figured on averages. stands at $+O.945. $40.
The outward movement of gold, coupled
with the fact that receipts from the in

for a hrmer money market. although as

SHARP MARKET RAID

SELLING IN LARGE VOLUME
Pressure on United States Steel and
Common Sells Down to So.
REPORT IS DISAPPOMTING
Untitled Tonnage Not as Large as
Had Been Expected-Banks
Lose Cash.

NEW YORK. February lO-Quotations
Of stocks were depressed sharply today
by a sudden attack on the market. The
session began quietly, and the list seemed
to have lapsed into complete stagnation.
Variations in prices of the leading issues
were SO small and business was so light
that traders looked ahead to a dull and
profitless day.
But before the end Of the first hour
prices began to move definitely downward,
and during the second part Of the half
day session the movement was active.
Stocks were sold In large amounts and
U. 8. Steel. the Hartman Pacifics
Reading. Amalgamated Copper. Ameri-
can Smelling and q number Of other
prominent stocks lost from to IL
points.
Pressure Against Steel.
Pressure was heaviest against U. s.
Steel, which sold down to 80. Selling Of
this stock was explained when the
monthly statement of untitled tonnage
appeared at the close Of the market. II
showed an Increase of "a 600 tons in
untitled orders at the end Of January.
The report was disappointment to
traders.
Advance eStlmateS OF the unnue0 or
ders ranged from 10000 to 55OOOO tons.
and the showing of less than 10000
tons Indicated that steel trade condi-
tions had been less favorable in recent
weeks than had been generally believed.
Reports of price cutting by steel manu-
facturers increased the bearish feeling
toward the steel stocks.
Movements among the specialties were
irregular. International Paper preferred
rose 81. National Biscuit lost 214 on the
appearance Of its annual report, showing
a decrease of $23SOOO In surplus for the
fiscal year. Net profits, however, were
slightly larger. the reduction In surplus
having been due to larger dividends.
Fewer Freight Cars Idle.
A large decrease In the number Of idle
freight cars was shown by the fortnightly
report, the total having fallen or more
sharply than in any Other two-week
period since 1909. The heavier demand
was largely for coal cars, and was due to
the cold weather.
The expected loss in cash by the banks
was shown In the weekly statement. which
disclosed an actual cash loss OF IS. $4,000.
The effect of the weeks operations upon
the surplus reserve was to reduce It by
more than 100000.
Bonds were irregular, with an easier
tendency. Total sales. par value, $780,
