SATURDAYS MARKET.
Leading Stocks Were Quiet During the
 Dull Session.

New York, Jan. 22.-Trading in to- days two hour session of the stock exchange was dull, irregular and alto gether inconclusive. Operations were light and narrow, even for a week end, and leading stocks were relegated to comparative obscurity, their place be- ing taken by such specialties as U. $: Industrial Alcohol, Corn Products and other kindred issues.
 AlcohoPs continued activity was pri- marily due to the announcement that the company had received a very large foreign order for it's product. The stock rose and fell between 169. its previous high record, and 160, closing at 162, net loss of four points.
 - U. s. Steel was under further pres. sure and Bethlehem Steel closed at 472, a loss of 12 points. War shares as class were moderately higher with more substantial. gains in International Nickel, General Motors and American .Woolen. Stocks of no especially desig- nation rose one to two points, but rep resentatiye shares particularly rails, were inclined to sag.
 New York Central was the active feature of the railroad group, its de- pression being attributed to adverse rumors regarding the prospects for an increase of the dividend. St. Paul also yielded a point, but with Central made up some of it's loss before the close Total sales amounted to 190,000 shares.
 General news of the day bore hope fully on the outlook for spring trade and demand for copper showed no abatement Foreign advices were less cheerful, however, cables from London conveying intimations of financial em- barrassment in shipping circles.
 The fLehigh Valley railroad issued it's December statement, showing a gain in net revenues of $357. 7.0GS. Some of the larger transportation systems are ex- pected to issue December statements in the course of the coming week, and indications point to substantial gains over the excellent exhibits of Novem- Der.
 The bank statement disclosed an actual cash gain of over SIP, 100000 by local banks, with an increase in re- serve of about. $8,400,000. and only a moderate expansion of loans.
 Bonds were steady in .today's limited market. Total sales aggregated S1,- 995, 900.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call during the week.

MANY STARS WILL COMPETE
 IN MILLRosE GAMES
Famed Athletes from All Parts of This Country and Canada Will Battle Wednesday Night.

Athletic stars from all parts of this country and Canada will gather at New York on Wednesday night to bat tie for fame and trophies at the Mill rose A. A. games in Madison Square Garden.
 From Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles and Toronto will come famed athletes to test their strength and speed against the best men who represent New York in open compe- tition.
 Among those entered are a host of men who have won worlds, national and sectional titles in their special ties. But while one or more of these will start in the different events, the number will be small compared to the crowd of lesser lights who will strive to earn fame for themselves and their clubs
 The meet will begin with a dash at 70 yards. In it four of the best sprinters in America will start. They are J. G. Loomis of Chicago, the na- tional titleholder; Howard Drew, the negro of the University of California, who holds the worlds record of 3-5 seconds for the one hundred yard dash; Roy Morse of the Bronx, who won the national furIong title last summer and Frank Stephenson of the Trinity A. C., of Brooklyn, a former holder of a metropolitan sprint title.

 The New Haven in 6 statement is- sued Saturday said:
 Tt is the policy of the New Haven company to lift the embargo by de- grees as speedily as possible. Circular letters are being. sent to ccnsignees requesting co,operation on their part and suggesting certain methods of CO., operation that should tend to relieve the congestion.
 '@The company is hopeful that further relief will be possible in the near fu- ture, provided no serious physical ob- stacles intervene. 1t is the belief of the officials that reinstatement of the embargo at a future date may be avoided if all concerned carefully ob- serve the suggestions made by the company, viz: To order freight for ward moderately, to order cars loaded to their maximum carrying capacity and to unload cars promptly"
