A hunt through City Hall for rooms

William II. FELTON,, chief clerk of

on the fifth floor to Director Tustin,
of the new department. Clerks were
installed and organization was affected.
1t is up to the councilmanic commit

tion or to find other quarters for the
new branch of government.
The committee includes, in addition
to Chairman Patton, Messrs. Burch,

STOCK TRADING
EXTREMELY LIGHT
Lack of Confidence in Any Real

ditions

New York, Jan. THE New York
Evening Suns closing financial review
today says:
The behavior of the stock market to-
day again gave a broad hint that ini-
| tiative is not to be anticipated for some
/ time to come. Trading was light in
/ volume, and prive movements irregular
, with the steels. equipments and a few
scattered issues making the only dis
play of anything like consistent
strength.

gagged by the standard of the last few
months Of what constitutes ease, that
is to say, call loans renewed at I per
cent, a new low renewal level on this
movement, and receded TO & per cent
earlier in the session than usual.
Offerings of time funds were freer,
a circumstances which, of course, has
direvt bearing on lower call rates.
But it is perfectly evident that this
tendency in both demand and time loans
is a temporary condition of no great
import and one which would doubtless
disappear quickly enough should an
/ earnest quest for money for stock mar
/ ket purposes develop.
That deduction, at least, was to be
drawn from the remarks of Governor
Harding. of the Federal Reserve Board.
yesterday in Washington. The banking
conference at which he spoke adjourned
without voicing opinions on the various
phases of the financial situation set
forth, but it will meet again IN Chicago
on the 18th.
y The course of the market itself was
a reflection of want of confidence in
,pv resI rnliof in money conditions and
/ the most that can be expected, perhaps,
| is an occasional bulge on technical
grounds. Bankers realize the necessity
of directing funds into commercial and
industrial channels.
/ Accomplishment of 81 compromise in
rhe peace treaty is looked forward to
/ hopefully and such a development in
the near future would undoubtedly have
a good effect sentimentally, but sight is
/ not lost of the fact that ratification
will stimulate the employment of money

prise to the street in the light of recent

Mr.. uoover's remarks to the effect
that Europe should not rely on this
country for financial help other than
commercial credits and urgent relief

more than academic. That Europe
must work out her own economic sal
vation is not a creed to Wall street.

INTEREST Jagged
AS MONEY SPECTRE PARADED
Prices aueed Despite Acua Ease Of Call Loans-Dealngs
DtUindLe Minor Proportions

new York, Jan. I.--While showing
no decided tendency, today's stock mar
ket mad an undertone of considerable
strength. The more striking develop
ment was supplied in the pronounced
contraction in the volume of transac-
tons and the conspicuous narrowing of
the trading. This expressed the indie
cision of the professional element, who
still enjoy uuopposed domination of
the market, arising from yesterdays $
warning ofa the Federal Reserve board.
The specter of a money stringency, in
other words, was still going the rounds.
but it is an open question whether the
market interests were not more puz-
zled than frightened
A. nights sleep over Governor Hard
ing supposedly alarmist speech appar-
entity eliminated much of the sting out
OF his warning concerning "unessential
oans. \ calm consideration of the
speech brought the conclusion he had
said nothing more than what he said in
November, or what he has said all along
oncerning the curbing of unbridled
speculation. Just at the moment, with
money so deucedly tight, even the sus
estion of a new move on the checker
board by the Federal Reserve board
givcs Wall street case of creeps down
he spinal column.
Those who had measured and weighed
the pros aud cons of the money mar
ket situation reached the sensible con
clusion that conditions. instead of be-
ing worse, were in reality working out
altogether satisfactorily. 1t was point
ed out by some close observes that.
while the Federal Reserve board may
further penalize northern and eastern
capitalists for their patriotism, by
forcing the payment of three quarters
OF l per cent discount over the interest
eturn of the Liberty bonds, the aver
age law of supply aud demand will
eventually regulate the credit situa-
ton.
Yesterdays incident, however, uu-
questionably injected a fresh strain of
uncertainty into the monetary situa-
ton, which was indicated in the halt
ing character of the market during the
most part of the forenoon, rejecting a

widespread disposition to await the
course Of developments in this con
necton. All indications, however
pointed to continuance of easy rates
for demand loans. which was confirmed
by the first quotations for call money
Large amounts were offered in the sec
ond hour at Z per cent for renewal Is and
new loans. This was the lowest initial
rate since the November break.
Gains and losses were almost evenly
balanced in the opening market. Active
leaders included the same shares that
featured Yesterdays rally, mainly the
steels, coppers, textiles and sugar
stocks. The oil group were the only
important issues to display pronounced
pressure, Mexican Petroleum falling
four points, Pan American and Texas
The heaviness of this division was
due to the reports of heavy damage
to the Mexican oil properties from the
earthquake and because of the an
announcement of new ruling by Presi-
dent Carrqnza on import duties. The
earthquake damage reports were later
officially denied. while the report OF
an increase of 10 per cent in export
duty of Mexican oil lacked confirmation
by the oil companies having vast prop

report, Tie matter is not considered
important, as it would mean an in
crease in cost of less than two cents a
barrel, approximately 50 cents.
The seiling pressure, which appar-
entity emanated principally from the
professional traders eased in the second
hour. and the active leaders, particu'
larly the motors, oils and equipments,
rallied briskly, after which dealings
dwindled to minor proportions.
Business was almost at standstill
during the early afternoon, many of
the leading stocks fuctuating within
the smallest fractional limits. Price
tendencies were tirmer, however, so far
as they manifested any change, espe-
cially among representative industrials
and local fractions.
Prices averaged highest levels of the
session in the final hour. steels and
equipments leading with shippings, to-
baccos and allied specialties.
