CHEERFUL FEELING
In LONDON MARKET
Stocks Buoyant, Becoming
Duller on Approach Of
Christmas Holidays.

Special Gable TO THE NEw YORK HERALD.
Copyright, 1891, By The NEW York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
London, Dec. 25.
After being quite buoyant In the early
days Of the week the stock market here
became dull and inactive with the ap-
proach of the Christmas holidays and
business was practically at standstill,
scarcely trade occurring in numerous
issues which are normally active. The
hope that business would broaden out
early in the new year. however. caused
the close to be marked by degree OF
cheerfulness.
Although the, Stock Exchange was. on
the whole, disappointed when the Dali
Eireann decided not to end the suspense
in connection with Ireland. but to pro-
long 1t by deferring its decision on the
peace treaty until after the new year,
the general feeling In market circles
and the financial world here is that all
will be well; that the postponement OF
the Dairs action on the treaty increases

new year will usher In a period of ac-
tivity which will. in every respect, be
far brighter than at the beginning Of
1921.
Were it not for the existence OF such
hopes as these the markets would GER
tainly not have witnessed the closing
days OF the year with substantial in
creases In prices. That the outlook has
been greatly frightened by the WASH
ington conference decisions is generally
agreed.
A significant development and a
feature Of the times has been the eager
ness with which new issues have been
taken up by the British public. It Is
distinct sign Of confidence in the future.
To sum up, 1t can be said that the
year is closing very differently from
what was expected only a few weeks
ago. The demand for first class stocks
Is likely to become keener after the
holidays. especially IL the expectations
of cheaper money are realized. Many
new issues will be seen early in the new
year and investors will be confronted
with numerous and attractive opportuni-
ties for investing their savings to ad-
vantage.

German capitalists who are no longer
willing to invest money In their own
country and the desire to build up the
pre-war system of controlling foreign
industries likely to aid their country's
interests are after important holdings

by the French.

100000 francs in shares of a total capi-

by an important French group.

Disconto Gesellschaft, is reputed to have
played big part in the maneuver and
II is understood that another French
group. whose funds have been obtained

4, No Demand for short Gloves.

Although sales of longer length gloves
are moving In fair volume, short glove
sales are practically at standstill and
the question of how to stimulate pur-
chases of them is receiving much atten-
ton in the glove trade. Special sales of
them stimulated business for a time, but
apparently even bargain counter hunters
are surfeited with the short glove sale
lure. The decrease is particularly no.
ticeable in larger cities. In smaller CEN
ters there still remain purchasers willing
to relieve merchants of their stocks of
short gloves. Dealers lay the cause for
their decreased sales to increasing use
of short sleeved gowns.

The prospect of either worldwide, or

settle the worlds financial ills a. ady
has had the effect of strengthening the
Bourse here. and although the London
conference last week between the British
and French Premiers did not go further
than to break the ground for supreme
council meeting, most of the leading d.
visions of the Bourse showed a favor
able reaction to the scheme.
A few days of irregularity and hesti-
tation were followed by an upward move
ment, which only serves to prove the
opinion expressed last week that affairs
here are about to enter a new epoch Of
success.
Mexican eagles, which are held exten-
sively by rural investors. showed more
renewed life during the closing sessions
last week and there were unusual specu-
lative movements In coppers, especially
Mount Elliott upon the news from Lon
don. While this stock rose several points
final quotations on Rio Boleo, Utah and
Cape were not greatly changed.
Bank shares also showed firnness,
especially those of the Paris ct Pays
Bas, which is behind an issue of 50,000.-
600 francs to build Moroccan railroads
Much interest also was shown in the
Societe Radio Maritime which rents
wireless apparatus to vessels and which
is increasing it's capital by issuing 100
franc shares. The company's profits.

Good Demand for Heather.

The call for heathers is still on the
upward trend and in many cases those
goods for immediate delivery are hardly
to be had. Very few dealers can get
what they need or tell when it will be
possible to do so. Late deliveries are
practically the only contracts under
which manufacturers will take orders.
The increasing popularity of heathers is
forcing certain cotton hose mills to ex-
pertinent with yards suitable for making
the heather variety. Just what the sit
uation holds in store for the January
sales dealers are unable to say.
