1t was reported On the street the

an ordinance to require all dogs that
came on the street to be fastened to

found on the street not so chained,
the owner would be fined S15 for each
offense. To be sure about it The Her.

eign dumping. Though now ranking as the first nation in steel produce tion, we only ranked about third as an exporter before the war. When the war is over Great Britain will un- doubtedly make great strides in this direction. So also will the United States. Our fear of German dumping is probably greater than necessary. Costs of production in Germany will remain comparatively high because of heavy taxes, inflated war prices, gen. eral scarcity of skilled labor, the sus- pension of export bounties and the fact that Germany will for some time to come be seriously crippled in her foreign trade. It is one of the boasts of American manufacturers that Am erican methods, especially in the steel trade. are more efficient than those of any other nation. This alone should give us a large element of protection and make less necessary the revival of tariff agitation, which will certainly inject much uncertain ty into business affairs Besides it is too son to change tariff or reven- ue legislation until conditions are more settled on peace basis.
 Outlook Satisfactory.
 Outside of the conditions just re- ferred to, the outlook for the stock market is satisfactory. Trade through out the country is fairly active and profitable. The railroads are taxed to the utmost with the eastward rush of traffic, the great bulk of which is on domestic and not foreign ac- count Good traffic reports are to be expected for some time to come, 1ciC. tI1; rich harvest and a general revival of domestic prosperity in which the rail- roads must share. Our foreign trade at the same time continues phenom- enally active because of heavy ex- ports of food products and war muni- tiOns. Confidence has been further restored by sterling exchange which has shown a continued rising tenden- cy owing to successful operation of the new schemes designed to finance trade between the Allies and the United States Foreign securities are coming here in liberal quantities in payment of foreign debts, and have thus far been absorbed with remark able readiness by American buyers Money continues easy and abundant to good buyers, although the banks have been prudently discriminating against highly inflated collateral Heavy foreign liquidation and the warning against fancy industrials has induced some reaction in the local market, which might be carried still further in case of unfavorable devel- opments with Mexico. Aside from the factors just mentioned, however, the general financial situation is sound and this market would undoubtedly respond very promptly to favorable news.

SPECULATIVE ISSUES
 FEATURE OF MARKET
Gains and Losses Registered on
 Exchange Today

New York, Jan. 15.-Trading was very active today, but the movement was more or less confusing. Specialties like Bethlehem Steel, International Nickel, American Coal Products and New York Air Brake, made extreme gains of five to eighteen points, but other issues of that class rose only moderately. Mexican issues were again under the spell of depression and rails were dull and irregular. while United States Steel was under persistent pres sure. Mercantile Marine issues again were the outstanding features at bet ter prices. The closing was irregular. Bonds were strong with further heavy dealings in New York Central deben- lures.
 Wall St., 10:30 a. m.-Such actl- vity as attended today's initial trad ing was again limited to speculative issues, particularly those forming the so-called munitions group. Gains of a point were made by American Car, American Locomotive, and Mex ican Petroleum, while Crucible Steel. Industrial Alcohol and International Nickel scored material advances. The movement was rather irregular, how ever, other prominent specialties, in cluding Baldwin Loco, Californian Petroleum, Studebaker and Lacka- wanna Steel falling from substantial fractions to almost two points. Mer- cantile Marine issues were again eX- l tremely active, the 4 1-2 per cent. bonds advancing ? points to the high record of 101 1-2.
