Wall St, New York, Feb. 5.-STOCKS-
Shorts contributed very largely to the rela-
tive strength of today's stock market. The
aggressive attitude of bull pools in the
more speculative issue prompted hasty COW
ering of contracts. Oils, steels, equipments
and rails. were. especially prominent at
gains of 1 to 21a points. A demand for
Reading common anG the first and second
preferred suggested early announcement
of the company's segregation plan. Strength
also was shown by Mexican stocks and
bonds. Buying of these securities evidently
was based on reports that the Mexican gov
eminent intends to refund its foreign debt.
The closing was firm. Sales Appropriated
100000 shares
The stock market was dull and hesitant at
the opening of today's session but trading
became more active as price tendencies
strengthened on short covering The usual
favorites led, namely Oils, Stee1s. Equip
ments and shippings. Within the first half
hour gains of L to IL points were scored,
by General Asphalt, Mexican Petroleum.
Houston Oil and Crieible Steel. American
International, Baldwin, American Wooden,
Chino Copper and several of the transcon-
tinental rails also were substantially better.
Exchange on London rose moderately over

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

oy local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
Catarrhal Deafness requires constitu-
.iorial treatment. HALLS CATARRH
MEDICINE is constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When thi. tube is
infiamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire-
ly closed Deafness is the result. Unless
the Inflammation can be reduced, your
hearing may be destroyed forever.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system, thus reducing the in
aammation and restoring normal condi-
tons.
