FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DULL
Smallest Total of Dealings for Any Full Day Session For Many Weeks.

New York, Jan. s.-The main fea- ture of today's stock market was its | consistent dullness, dealings barely | reaching 600, GOO shares. the smallest total of any full session for many | weeks. Virtually all the trading eTnen- ated from professional sources and so far as was indicated by the move ment of prOces. that faction was more | or less at sea.
 There was considerable discussion respecting business conditions and prospects as suggested. by advices over the week end and the note of eau tion sounded by the chief executive of l the United States Steel Corporation l was reflected in the uncertain trend | of industrial stocks. The investigat ton l now proceeding at Washington exicted | little attention, save in speculative cir | cles.
 l From it's firm opening the list soon | began to droop and by the end of the
 first hour, most leaders, including 1 United States Steel, were down one | to two points. These losses were ir- ! regularly extended later. particularly l in volatile specialties such as Gener- | al Motors. which registered an ex- announcement of the one per cent. dividend, recovering over half before the close.
 Other heavy issues included Bald win Locomotive, Cuba Cane Sugar; Texas Company. Industrial Alcohol and Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies. Metals also yielded on the reactionary trend of the copper market and leather and paper issues gave way on small transactions.
 More steadiness was shown in the last hour, when Steel made up all it's losses and Atchison infused some strength to rails on it's rise of 1 5-3 points. In the main, however. the transportation shares were decidedly irregular with occasional heaviness in Canadian Pacific and New Haven.
 Among the dormant specialties, Woclworth was conspicuous for it's gain of nine points and Pittsburgh Coal active an dstrong, rising over 5 points on reports of a stock read justment favorable to the common shareholders.
 Sterling was stabilized by addition al gold imports, but marks were weak and fires and rubles small fraction lower.
 Bond offerings were light, but more diversified, with recoveries in local traction issues. Total sales (par value) aggregated $4, ,325, 900.
 U. s. bonds were unchanged on call.

 A DEFIANT WITNESS

After declaring that he had he had information from a member of congress that a cabinet official had been beneficiary, Lawson fatly re- fused to give the names to the com mittee. He announced defantly that he would give no names, regardless of consequence and declared:
 You may punish me if you wish but will not besnirch the names of ary inquiry; my only business here is to give information that would war rant you in ordering a full investi- gation. This I think I have done"
 Flew Into a Passion.
 Before this the witness had flown Representative Chiperfield about his book. ',Frenzied Finance" There were heated exchanges during which the word -four f1usher'' could be heard rupted the record of the official stem ographer. Lawson, shaking his hand in Representative Chfperfie1d's face, asserted that he knew his rights and would not be bulldoZed. He finally was pulled into a chair by the chief clerk of the house. The colloquy with Representative Chiperfield and some of LAawson's other remarks were ex- punged from the record.
 Joint Stock Gambling Account.
 The examination then proceeded more quietly. ~Mr. Lawson frequently asked to be excused from answering questions, but not until he had told another story, at first hypothetically and then as a report related to him, to the effect that a member of the cabinet, a United States senator and a New York banker had a joint stock gambling account which was shared among them. He f1atay refused, de- spite persistent efforts of the commit tee. to reveal these names, declaring
