FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET CONTINUES DULL.
Awaiting Outcome of Affairs Abroad
and at Home.

New York, April 12.-The stock
market was again in a state of sus-
pended animation today, evidently
awaiting the outcome of affairs abroad
and at home. Business in the first
hour attained to moderate proportions,
wholly at the cost of values, but the
succeeding hours witnessed a steady
diminut;on. Lowest quotations were
made in the last hour, United States
Steel AMI Petroleum leading the de-
cline.
To say that the market lacked pro-
fessional or speculative initiative
would be calling attention to long ex-
listing conditions. As for investment
inquiry, that has ceased to be fac
tor of more than passing Importance,
this attitude applying to all but the
higher grade issues.
Wall Street was less interested or
concerned in the sluggish movement
of securities than in such significant
happenings as a further break in the
French exchange and increased weak
ness in Russian rates. The Paris
check fell to 6.44 IL, establishing a
new official minimum for this remit
lance since the war; and roubles de-
clined 3-S to 80 PA without evoking
any response in authoritative quart
ers.

the remarkable earnings of the Lacka-

quarter. The trend of general BUSH
ness was indicated by an increase in
the Woolworth common dividend from
Z to 8 per cent. basis.
Conspicuous stocks of the day, so
far as the market could be said to
have any leaders, were Crucible and
