FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS OPTIMISTIC.

New York, Feb. '3-Although s1ti- Tlent in the financial district over the weekend denoted q moderate access sion of optimism, which found it's chief expression !n the market letters ot brokerage houses. today's session of the stock exchange was apathetic and Uninteresting.
 Pools furnished almost the sole ini- tlatiTe, again limiting their operations to shares of speculative character, while rails and standard industrials were extremely dull or reactionary.
 Motor shares were most conspicuous as group. the movement in that quarter doubtless being facilitated by the automobile exhibitions now in progress here. these being accompan- jed by more hopeful trade conditions. Gains among motors ran from one to 3 1-2 points. Studebaker alone lag ging.
 Traction and gas shares were ap- preciably higher. probably as q result ol the inlproveG prospects for Brook ] lyn Transit and pools were once more active in tobacco, sugar and paper is- sues.
 Pressure was persistently exerted | against oils and several of the marine stocks until the last hour, when the 1 general list strengthened under the impetus of an inquiry for U. S. Steel. 1 which closed at q large fractional gain.
 The one specific incident of the day
 was the cut in International Nickel
 from $1 to fifty cents quarterly, de-
 spite which Nickel closed al a net 1 gain of one point. Sales amounted to 290,0G0 shares.
 Foreign war flotations strengthened the bond list. material advances be- ing registered by French municipals and United Kingdom issues. while the
 Liberty group eased slightly with speculative rails. Total sales. par value aggregated 10,150,00O. Old L. S. coupon fours lost IS per cent on call.
