Stock Market

New York. February G.-Undcr the
lead of the coalers' quotations OF
stocks advanced vigorously for time
to-day. Trading was fairly active. with
Keen bidding for the Hartman stocks
and some of the Southern Issues. us
%cii as tho coalcrs. During the af-
tcrnoon prices were almost motionleSs
until shortly before tho close. when
proiit-taking scaled down the days
gains
The course of stocks to-day cmpha-
sized the inertia of the market at pres
ent. and the inability OF professional
traders to move it far in either di-
rcHtion. In explanation Of the lack
OF initiative, it is said that the large
traders are unwilling 10 take Il deli
mite stand until they learn whether
there is to he congressional inves,i-
CATION OF the money trust. Uncertain
ties of the political situation appar.
entity have affected tho investment de-
mand as well as speculative operations.
Apprehensions as to political develop
ments have been supplemented by the
Influence of Indifferent business condi-
tons, and doubt as to the ability OF
some roads to maintain their dividend
rates
The demand for the cal stocks re-
suited in an advance in Central Rail-
road OF New Jersey viii IN was almost
Spectacular. The opening bid of $40
was advanced steadily with no offers,
and il was necessary to raise the price
thirty-fIvc points before stock was
sold. Delaware and Iiudscn rose five
points, Reading three and Lehigh val-l
Icy and several other coal stocks scor-
cd lesser gains
Great Northern preferred responded
TO strong statement Of earnings for
December. American tobacco broke
6 l2, but later rallied sharply. United
States Steel, which rose more than a
point. lost most Of its gain. Selling
Of this and other standard issues. which
brought about the reaction late In the
day. was perhaps Influenced by the
granting OF an Injunction against the
Steel Corporation to prevent il from
destroying records which might be OF
use as evidence In the E0Ycrnments
dissolution suit
Foreign exchange rates weakened.
and bankers stated that conditions had
worked further away from the point
at which gold might be exported pro-
ftably 10 Europe. \ STRENGTHENING in
fuence was the unexpectedly favorable
gross earnings for January OF n num-
Dor OF railroads. Although several
roads reported n falling off from the
returns of the corresponding month OF
last year, the showing as whole was
better than had been looked for. in
view of the unusually severe weather
conditions in January.

Following action by the board of trus-

DR. w B. Summerall. the superintendent,
today prepared a statement regarding
conditions in the hospital, showing the
evidence. and facts on which the two
boards based their exoneration of the
hospital system, and showing that the
criticism of the food and charge of
"overwork' were unwarrarted. 1t was
criticism that the internes were under
fed and "overworked" which led TO the
recent investigation and the complete vim
dication OF the hospital and its methods.
AS to the criticism that nurses are
compelled to pay for Instruments they
break it is shown that this plan is in
effect in all big hospitals and that dur
ing a period of three years and three
months the total amount paid for such
breakage was only $500

"KIDNAPS' MINISTER

After weeks of preparation and pre-
nuptial parties had centered the inter
est of Newman society folk on the mar
riage of Miss Katie Sue Brewster to
Professor A. NJ. Proctor, principal of
the Newman High school, the assembled
wedding guests, almost forgot to con-
gratulate the bride in the excitement
produced by the unexpected elopement
if it may be called that-and mar
riage of her maid of honor Miss Ruby
Loveioy, and Mr. Joseph Parks, prom
inent young Newman merchant and
they were still talking about'it today.
The same minister married both cou-
pies and the two ceremonies were per
formed within an hour, yet neither Miss
Brewster. Professor Proctor nor the
guests assembled for their wedding
knew that the ceremony was being de-
layed in order that Miss Lovejoy and
Mr.. Parks could first be united.
