VARIOUS RUMORS
 WORK OVERTIME
Call Loans Go at 3 1-2 Per Cent, Lowest of the Year.
 Bonds Firmer

New York, January 24.-Political and economic factors continued to weigh upon the stock market today. although there was a moderate rally due in part to short covering at the end. Pools were again active in minor specialties, but the lack of public interest in representative shares was an obvious setback.
 Peace rumors, government financing, the freight embargo and fuel shortage were among the conflicting elements that affected the moderate dealings in varying degree.
 Greater ease was displayed in the mar ket for call loans, which opened at Sla per cent the lowest initial rate this year, but time funds, while quotably un- changed, were scarce to the point of complete withdrawal.
 That investment money still seeks an outlet was seen in the large over-sub- scription to the s, 100000 New York city revenue warrants which were disposed of at a price averaging slightly over z1a per cent.
 Market leaders moved in a very mar row groove, rails evincing a reactionary trend on presentation to Congress of a railroad bill somewhat different from that originally projected.
 Seasoned industrials, shippings and ac- tive specialties were responsive to the more general support of the last hour, the list closing with firm tone.
 International issues, especially the French group. were slightly higher. Lib erty 3lasc made a new low record at 9S, first As also establishing a new mini- mum at 96.70 and the second As varying from 9s,S0 to 96.12. Total sales. par value, aggregated $4.42o,00o.

Over S. R. Stewards Wire

New Orleans, January 24-Foreign
 news contained nothing important except
 the statement from London of the small
 shipping losses during the week, and
 the announcement that the chancellor 8
 speech was set for this afternoon. There
 was. however rumor from New fork
 before the opening to the effect that a
 revolution had been started in Vienna,
 which was brought in connection with
 brief item in the morning press from
 Washington that the situation in Austria
 was considered critical.
 The market opened 30 to 5O points higher on three influences. First, cov- ering by some January shorts on last notice day; then the political rumor show ing the bullish undercurrent of an ex- pected peace boom, and then prospects of somewhat better weather for few days As technical conditions had im- proved with the recent decline in the market, it responded sharply to buy ing.
 J.iverpool did not reflect any peace opinion, as she was as much as % higher on March, and consols were unchanged ar 54A.
 The market. after the passing of the first hour, reacted 20 points and ruled quiet.
 Weekly statistics tomorrow promise to be unfavorable by comparison of small exports, a gain in stocks and small mill takings.
 Fall River says print cloth business suffered considerably because of drastic regulations placed on industry. Washington offers encouragement by
 saying that the eastern railroad em-
 bargo is likely to be for only few days,
 dependent of course of weather condi- tions.
 New York advices showed coverings of
 January short interest as leading fac
 tor in the advance. No change in the spot situation. Bet

Coffee Market

New York, January 24.--The market for coffee futures showed increasing strength and activity during today's trading, with every indication of a broadening Wall street and western interest The opening was somewhat irregular, owing to March liquidation, with that delivery points lower, but other months were unchanged to 1 point higher, and the market ad- vanced sharply during the day on the more optimistic reports of peace pros poets and rumors that there would be considerable delay in securing the use of the interned Dutch vessels. March contracts sold up from S.35c to S.75c, while May advanced from S65c to S.91c, and September from 903c to 9.S9c. while May advanced from S.65c to S.97c and September from 9oSc to 9Ssc, with the market closing at the best levels of the day, showing net advance of S1 to 3S points.

GRAIN PIT CROWD
 FROM MISSOURI
Refuse to Yield on RumOrs of Increased Crop Move
 ment From Belt

Chicago, January 24-skepticism re- garding predictions of an increased movement of the crop tended stubbornly today to uphold the corn market. Prices closed unsettled. at s126ls March and Sl.25ssq1.2 2594 May. with the final range varying from isc decline to ssc advance. compared with 2i hours before. Oats gained isto 7sc. Provisions closed Sc off to 29c tip.
 Reports were current that better weather in the west was gradually bring ing about more favorable traffic condi- tions on the railroads and five-car sup ply had been somewhat improved in Ill., inois. Besides, advices were at hand tell ing of the largest rural shipments of corn that had been made since the recent storm. Nevertheless, the scantiness of receipts here and the many times of late that hopes of liberal arrivals had turned out to be misleading discouraged sellers The result was to keep the market with in narrow limits and to minimize the vol tune of trade, despite a generally promls- ing outlook. All deliveries or oats ad- vanced to the highest prices yet this sea- son. Persistent demand from the sea board was responsible, but in the last hour 1t was said exporters had with drawn from the market.
 Covering by local shorts led to upturns in provisions. Sharp breaks in hog prices received but little attention

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, January 24.-(Special )-Liv- erpool advanced on the calling of cot- ton toward the end of January and on the newspaper reports of discensions in Vienna. Our market promptly advanced some 50 points before sellers appeared to satisfy the demand created by the reading of these reports from Austria. Or many different occasions during the war the central empires have permitted the publication of such rumors as are current today, only to be followed by an aggressive movement on the part of their armies.
 The purpose seems to be to catch the otter nations off their guard. Whether this time the reports are true the fu- ture will tell Doubtless our own political, coal and food troubles are exploited in Germany as proof of our not being able Is fight. The market effect Of these reports is to prevent the formation of any short interest. In week or so we shall probably hear of another monthly allotment of freight room for export by the English recommendations Bros.

Factors and rumors were numerous on Wall street yesterday and all worked overtime to fluctuate the stock list. So dull is trading that call money went at 3ta per cent, the lowest this year. In vestment money has no outlet as was witnessed by the oversubscribing of New York city revenue warrants at 4i4 per cent. Moderate support of such leaders as the steels and shippings caused hardening of prices in the afternoon.
