SOCIALISTS MEETING AT SWND-

All Central Powers Fully Represent"
cd Indicating Gathering Il An
other Germxc Peace Move

Stockholm, May 23.-Delegates
already here in advance of the Ger
man-called socialist peace confer
ence. began figuring today on the
possibility that representative social
lists for belligerent countries might
lose their freedom, II not their lives,
when they return home, as the price
OF their attendance on the meeting.
So far only delegates from Scan
dinavian nations and Bulgaria and
Austria are here. Daily conferences
are hold between these groups. Every
persuasive effort is being made to
coax attendance of English and
French delegates. The socialists
would also like to know exactly how
the American delegates will stand
at the meeting.
Secretary Huysman OF the inter-
national socialist bureau, cabled Nor
ris HillQuit. chairman Of the Ameri-
can delegation. seeking light in
advance on the American feeling. In
the meantime Dutch and Scandina-
Wan socialist leaders said they were
obtaining written peace terms OF all
belligerent nations-from their re-
spective socialist delegates, those
terms to be announced at the con-
ference.
Lack Of information from German
and Russian delegates as to the date
OF their arrival here. still prevented
any announcement today OF the exact
date Of the meeting. -
Americans in Stockholm pointed
out as likely to increase the suspicion
Of allied nations that the Stockholm
conference was German move, that
the German government has creden-
tailed all its delegates; that Aus
trian and Bulgarian Representatives
are here and that the Turkish To-
CATION has specifically designated
Turkeys committee. The central
powers. therefore. are all represent
ed. So far, 1t appears certain that
only the Russian delegates of the al
lies will be on hand.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
Features Of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks

New York, March 27.-The market
settled down to q dull routine today
preliminary to the coming session of
Congress, and a more definite adjust
ment Of conditions bearing directly
upon intrinsic values. Dealings were
the lightest Of any full day for almost
a fortnight. the absence Of public In
terest being a marked feature
Occasional spells Of activity derived
their chief impulse from the operations
of pools interested in special stocks,
notably those more or less remotely re-
munitions and equipments figured to an
unwonted degree. but failed to elicit
outside response.
Additional adverse crop reports, ru-
mors dealing with the international
situation. the failure Of the Central
Leather directors to increase the COM
mon dividend and the Union Pacific
statement for February, which showed
a large decrease in net earnings, were
among the restraining influences Of the
day.
Opening prices were well above final
quotations Of the preceding day, espe-
cially in industrials and rails. Equip
ments were next taken up with sugars
and marines. but the inquiry fiattened
out by midday, after which prices drift
ed idly. save for another squirt in SUI
gars towards the close.
Pressure was again observed in Unit
ed States. Reading and few other
potential leaders. Steel. however, rally
ing from Its fractional decline before
the end. Other prominent shares made
partial recoveries on short covering,
rails. however, holding back. Total
sales amounted to $4,000 shares.
Further withdrawal Of gold from the
for shipment to Spain
called attention to the strength Of ex-
change on that country. Another small
importation Of gold was reported from
London, but foreign remittances in gen.
eral were without material change.
Successful flotation of the new
French loan impaired some strength to
other international bonds, but dealings
IN that quarter were nominal. Total
sales par value aggregated S2,260,O0O.
United States coupon tours advanced a
point on call.
