"SNff'NS Sou"'NAN
Washington, Dec between 300,-
600 and $4,000 deaths from influenza
and pneumonia have occurred among
the civilian population of the United
States since September 49, according
to estimates today Of the public health
service. These calculations were
based on reports from cities and
states keeping accurate records and
public health officials believe they are
conservative.
The epidemic still persists, but
deaths are much less numerous, ac-
cording to reports reaching here.
Insurance companies have been
hard hit by the epidemic. government
reports indicate, although there are
no figures available here to show
total losses sustained by. the com
panies. The government incurred liza
hilities of more than $170, 600, 900 in
connection with life Insurance car-
ried by soldiers in army camps, not
including those in Europe. About
10000 deaths occurred in the camps
in the United States, war department

having at least one cold during the

nate who have but one and get
through with it quickly and without

STOCK MARKET
OPENS UNEASY;

Oils Erratic, Rails Very Dull
and Heavy Selling of Lib
erty Bonds Results in New
Low Figure


New York, Dec. 4.-Trading in
stocks today was characterized by UNI
certainty at every period of the SEES
sion, the market falling into a eondi-
ton of inertia after the moderately
active first hour
There was little discussion of the
main points in the presidents mes
sage to congress and yesterdays in
ttmations of an early reduction of the
margin rate from 80 to 20 ner cent
found no reflection in the money mar
ket, the rate for call loans holding at
per cent.
Rails We're dullest of all the i'm
portant stocks and such changes as
occurred in that group were gener-
ally downward, Pacifics, grangers
and coalers easing one to one and a
half points, but ralying slightly on
short covering later.
Oils were more than ordinarily err
ratio, Mexican Petroleum yielding
most of its two-point advance.
Studehaker was the striking excep-
ton to the strength of motors and
subsidiaries, losing almost two points
at the outset but rallying in the final
hour. Coppers and tobaccos were
firm, but equipments and feathers
forfeited one to two points, Sales
amounted to 1850 shares.
Heavy selling of Liberty issues,
chiefly the fourth AIS. at the new
Minimum of $500 was the striking
feature of the bond market Other
domestic bonds. including speculative
rails, were moderately lower. but in
ternationals held firm Total sales,
par, value, aggregated s13, 900. Old
United States bonds were unchanged
