ihe Stock Market

Reading and Amalgamated Copper opened at slight advances while Union Pacific and Pennsylvania rose from half to point. American Telephone sell ing ex-dividend also advanced sub stantia1 fraction. United States Steel sNnd Southern Pacific were steady at yesterdays close. The only weak is- sues were the stock and four per cent bonds Of the Western Maryland Rail road which added to their decline of yesterday in connection with the i'm pending default of interest on the company's notes.
 Noon-Trading showed no marked increase with the passing of the early session, but the undertone was firmer. Aside from the few material gains in the railway group there were advances If point or more in Bethlehem Steel, Central Leather, Westinghouse and some more obscure specialties Ama1gamated also gained full point with thre points for Great Northern Ore certificates. The short interest continued to cover its outstanding commitments. Cables from London indicated a more cheerful feeling at that center in connection with next weeks reopening of the exchange.

WOULD URGE CLUBS
 TO CLEANSE PARTY
Moose Member of House Re plies to Hinebaugh Plan
 for Reunion

Washington, Dec. 31.-Congressman Crarnton, a Michigan Republican, called for the reading in the House yesterday of an interview printed in The Washington Times in which Chairman Hinebaugh, of the Bull Moose campaign committee urged a reunion of the progressive clements in the Progressive and Republican parties to defeat the Democrats in 1916.
 There are several sorts of reunions which may be upon the boards" in terjected Congressman Bryan, g Washington Bull Moose. ''If this re- union is to drive out the Republican party bosses and the machine which dominated things at Chicago, and if we are to return with battle axes ard baseball bats in our hands to clean out the Republican, party it may work out all right. There are reactionary clements in all parties-yes, even in he Progressive party.
 eff we add prohibition to our party platform in 1S16, however, we can
 lean out the whole bunch, for the re- .sent vote on prohibition in the House
 bowed that the Republican party is iquor-logged all the way through, md the Democratic party, from Pres dent down, is wet so far as nation vide prohibition is concerned. The Progressives are for prohibition and by adding that to our platform we will make a clean sweep in 1916.''

SAYS RUSSIANS WILL EVACUATE
 WARSAW SOON

Berlin, via The Hague and London, Dec. 31-Major Moraht, the military expert, discussing in the rageblatt, the eastern war situation, says:
 "All military authorities are agreed that the Polish capital must soon be evacuated. Its value as fortress, as is well known, is slight but the strongly fortified positions in front of the forts, 1t must be expected, will be we'll defended. Nevertheless, it would require strong forces to hold them. It appears, moreover, as if the Russian general staff attaches greater import ance in bringing it's main forces ur- broken behind the VistuIa rather than develop the full strength west tfaere- of However, the plans of the Rus sian staff are unknown and hence 1t is not impossible that it still intends holding the region west of the Vistula, with political prestige as the factor, despite the dangers attending such plan.
 At any rate, the defeat of the Rals- sians north of the Hilica win settle the fate of the army operating in Gahcia.''
