QUOTATIONS ON J. s. STEEL HOLD GROUND
 IN VARYING MARKET.
Internal and Foreign Poli- tics Affects Wall Street Quotations, But Best
 Securities Are Firm

New York, December 5.--Domestic and foreign political conditions were factors in last weeks moderate and rather ir- regular market movements Wall street has invariably halted in it's operations on the eve of the converting of Congress and especial interest attaches to the forthcoming session of the national ieg- islature. Declines in German and Aus trian exchange here to lowest quotations on record, the indefinite status of the Lusitania case and Washingtons demand for the recall of Germany's naval and military attaches brought this countrys s relations with Europes central powers into bolder relief.
 Intimations from high quarters that the allies may soon find it expedient. if not for supplies in this country caused marked effect on shares of companies manufacturing munitions of war. Better known industries like United States Steel lost little ground, however. and coppers were firm in the expectation of increased dividend disbursements this week
 Rails were disappointing in that they failed to keep pace in quoted values or activity with the many remarkable Oc- tober statements of earnings and which. it is contidentiaily predicted will be sur passed by November. One reason for the relative backwardness of this group is found in. the steady liquidation from abroad which seems to exhaust the ab- sorptive capacity of the local market Another reason is the attractive terms under which new undertakings are of- fered. sf
 That investment conditions are funda- mentally sound is demonstrated by the rapidity with which several new banking fiotations have been taken. together with the fact that many other underwritings are in process of completion.
 General trade reports are of more glowing character. all lines of merchan- disc showing greater activity. To what extent the enforced embargoes of rail- roads at this port will affect American foreign trade seniains to be seen.

Shanghai. December 6.--The crew of the Chinese cruiser Chao-Ho mutinied last night and opened fire on two other warships and the arsenal. The fire was returned, the engagement lasting for an hour. Several shots fell in the for eign concession.

sALANDRA VOTED SUPPORT

Rome, December 4-(DeIayed in Transmission.)-On vote of confi- dence for the government in the Cham Der of Deputies today the cabinets policy was sustained 405 to 4S. This vote followed notable speech by Pre- niier Salandra, who declared the gov ernment's confidence in final victory although the gravity of the interna- tional situation was fully appreciated.
 A feature of the session was the en- thusiasm aroused by the socialist dep- uty, Signor Ciccotti, who declared that the chamber must give an example of the solidarity and unanimity as dis played by the country in determina- tion to devote all energies and efforts toward the supreme object--ultimate victory When lSignor Ciccotti concluded he was embraced by many of the depu- ties
 Signor Boselli, veteran of the cham Der, aroused frantic demonstration in favor of the army, the navy and the King. His views accorded with those of Signor Ciccotti.
 Premier Sa1andra, in closing the dis cussion, said the government also de- sired a vote which would show the complete concord of Parliament and country and which would affect the cabinet only as the ministry which had led Italy to war, with the wish to continue it until it was victoriously concluded.
 Those who opposed the vote of con f1dence comprised intransigient social ists and about dozen followers of ex- Premier Giolitti. who was not presen. at the meeting.

CALM PREVAILS

Unusual calm prevails on the vorious battlefronts, even the Italians appear ently slackening their offensive prob ably in preparation for the next phase, which they hope will place Gorizia in their hands, with other commanding sposttions on which tfe .AHstssssAs hold has weakened during the past weeks of heavy fighting.
 The check suffered by General Townshend in Mesopotamia is a severe disappointment to the British public, which had looked upon this expedi- tion as the brightest spot thus far in the war, with the possible exception Of General Bothas conquest of German Southwest Africa. Nothing has been heard from General Townshend since he reached Kut El-Amara. where 1t is likely he will make a stand, as the position is a very strong one where he could hold out until achievements reached him. It is not only the mili- tary failure, but the effect the retire. ment will have on the British possess sions in the east which makes the re- suit so unfortunate from the British point of view.

London, December 5.--The negotfa- lions between Greece and the allied powers still drag on at Athens, new hitches apparently arising as old ones are smoothed out. One day settlement is reported only to be followed the next by denial or accounts of fresh diff faculties confronting the diplomats.
 The people of the allied countries, particularly those of France and Italy, are becoming impatient and the press is demanding that stern action be taken to demonstrate to King Constantine and his ministers the determination of the entente powers to secure the as- said to have been made by France and Great Britain in the hope of reaching an agreement.
 Roumania's attitude also remains un- decided. Since the dispatch announcing the closing of Roumanian ports to for eign trade was received silence has de- scended upon Bucharest and Europe is awaiting anxiously the next move which will give a meaning to this or der. The general belief here is that the Roumanian government is waiting for the concentration of sufficient Rus sian force in Besserabia and a large enough Anglo French army in southern Servia to make victory certain before joining the allies.
 Meanwhile the Austro- Germans and Bulgarians continue rounding up the few Servian troops remaining in Servia and also are prosecuting with their usual energy the campaign against MOnteneern

GO INTO MEXICO AT OWN RISK
Americans Warned by State Depart.
ment Not to Cross International
Boundary Line.

Washington, Dec. 31.-A warning
that Americans who go into Mexico do
so at their own risk has been issued
by the state department. It followed
receipt of consular dispatches from
Tampico saying that Americans re-
turning from the oil fields OF Texas
and Oklahoma were finding difficulty
in getting work and there are more
destitute citizens OF the United States
at the Mexican port than at any time
since the revolutionary troubles be-
gan.
I'm view of the political conditions
prevailing in Mexico" said the de-
partment's statement, Americans
who go to Mexico do so at their own
risk and the government does not adj
wise Americans to return to Mexico,
even when they have secured employ
ment there.
1T would appear that many Ameri,
cans are under the impression that
because this government gave them
financial aid in leaving Mexico on &C,
count Of the conditions prevailing
there, it would again do SO should they
return to that country. The depart.
ment cannot too strongly emphasize
the fact that no provision has been
made for continuing to transport Am
orleans from Mexico at the expense OF
the United States government.
