(The Barron Financial News Service)
 New York, Dec 21-Marketwise, the freight rate decision has fallen flat, as is evidenced by the fact that securities prices showed no marked changes following it's issuance. While it is pointed out that the gist of the decision had been known previously, been discounted, eminent financiers do not consider the victory complete Presidents of the various railroads affected, in their comment on the de- cision, were unanimous in the opin- ion that the relief afforded by the increase in rates will not be sufficient. The total increase in gross business which the railroads will derive from. the new rates has been variously es-' timated at between $30,o0O,0OO and $50, 100000 with 1918 tonnage the basis of the calculations
 Activity in the copper market di- unfinished considerably toward the close of the week. There was a com plete lun in buying of large quantities, and in the absence of demand manu- lecturers sought concessions from the IS 1-2 cent level.
 This week will be a. period of more or less general curtaiIment on the part of New England mills, especially among the cotton mills. Christmas week always results in some stopping of work. especially where Christmas comes at the end of a week. This year poor business conditions will produce more than the ordinary amount of curtailment. The big Pacific Mills will begin curtailment of operations in it's printing department today and by Wednesday night will have shut down the printing department en- tirely. It is expected that operations

 The stock market has given a sat- isfactory account of itself since the reopening of the Stock Exchange a week ago. Its first impetuous ad- vance received wholesome check which tended to lessen the temptation to European realizations and to pre- vent a too rapid reduction in the short interest. Reasonable fuctuatio ons will be apt to attract the trading element Pending the completion of the year end settlements and a more definite development of the practical effect of the rate decision, a quiet market helps the principle 70 which we recently re- ferred: Safety first.'' For ultimate results we may count upon an i'm portant influence in. the steady growth in the country's investment surplus which has had no outlet for over four months and will be increased by 200 or 300 millions through the com ing January disbursements.
