Tho stock Market.

The public has not come to be much Of
factor In the stock market, but the
probability is that that inquiry will i'm
prove materially within the next few

servers that the market was In a strong
technical position. The small investor
who deals only in seasoned securities
and pays outright for what he buys IL a
good deal of factor. The position Of
the market Is suggestive of underlying
strength. The probability is that specu-
lative enthusiasm will reappear before
long with the old time fireworks In a
modified form. There are many grounds
for taking a hopeful view OF the out
look and although there are uncer-
tainties TO reckon with. there are also
elements Of pronounced strength which
should not be overlooked in considering
the longer future.
Under the circumstances II is probable
that no thoroushgoing revival Of specu-
lative activity need be expected before
the forthcoming Government loan has
been marketed. Should this operation be
highly successful and should the money
market stand the strain of the forth
coming tax payments without difficulty
the indications are that the upwasd
price movement Will be resumed. But
there Is a large unexpended dividend
fund to be reckoned with in considering
the fuel which must feed the flame OF
increased speculative activity. The mar

Prints and percales were reduced dur
ing the week from So TO a715 per cent.
end some small business was being
booked at the new price Unbranded
bleached cottons were lower and sales
were small.
The competition for business on
narrow fiannelettes resulted in conces-

to Increase the uncertainty OF buyers.
Merchants are Of the opinion that trade
will begin to show Improvement as soon
as cotton markets are steadier
Curtailment OF production has In
creased in, mill centres, partly as re-
suit OF strikes for a forty eight hour
week, but principally because Of slow
development OF new business to take the
place of cancelled Government orders.

interesting and, although II means hard

Is gaining much Roadway and causing
much less disturbance than had been
looked for. The copper producing COM

made In bringing together buyer and

foreign demand for American steel.
In other branches OF industry the ten
