Washington Stock Market Has Bet
ter Tone to Trading.

Demand for local securities was
slightly improved. 1t was noticed OF
the Washington Stock Exchange yes

changes.

few shares of Washington Gas

The following analysis of the New
York market situation was received
late yesterday afternoon by w. B.
Hibbs and Company, from c. B.
Chaplin and Company, their New York
correspondents:
More cheerful sentiment prevailed
today, developments of the last few
days having the desired effect of
crystalizing a more optimistic feel
ing. The favorable turn of events in
Russia and the efforts being made by
the banking element to relieve the
acuteness of the money situation. in
conjunction with the expectancy of
favorable price fixing decision on
copper and steel, stimulated a de-
mand for stocks unequalled for some
time past The market, owing to its
severe decline and well liquidated
condition, exhibited a firm technical
foundation and the desire on the part
Of the shorts to cover was more
pronounced and aided by buying of
supposed substantial power enhanced
values in many instances, rather SEN
sationally.
A dark side the situation has had
for some time has been dispersed at
length and It is seemingly the OBJ
ject OF the leading financial interests
to promote more cheering advances
for the issuance of the forthcoming
Liberty Loan. As a consequence il is
now highly probable that prices will
gain access to higher levels.

ARRANGE FOR EXPORT
OF COAL TO CANADA

DR.. Harry A Garfield. Fuel Admin
lstrator. has issued an order requir-
ing infoTmation from coal producers
and jobbers engaged in the export
trade to Canada. which, when pro-
cured, it Is hoped will enable this
country to conserve the coal supply
available for the Northwest. Canada
and New England. SO that shipments
can be made TO meet all the normal
needs of these sections and leave a
surplus for the extra industrial de-
mends caused by the war.
The information asked for relates
to the amount of coal shipped to Can
ada for the year ending August 81.
and the amounts the coal men desire
to ship during the following year. Ten
tative plans have been formulated by
which it is hoped that coal can be
shipped to Canada in sufficient vol
ume TO prevent any shutting down OF
Canadian plants engaged in war
work.
