Difficulties in the adjustment Of the

particularly in connection with the
Far East side of the armament con-

Es to make II virtually certain that
that parley will continue well toward

Cancelled his passage and will remain

Both British and Japanese delega-

last week In January, the British

Details Are Numerous.
The explanation offered for the
change in plans was that the details
that remain to be adjusted are too
numerous for quick settlement. One
OF them is that portion of the five
power naval treaty dealing with
Pacific Notifications. Another Is the

NEW YORK, Jan. 14-Contrary to
predictions in quarters usually well
informed, the stock market did not
go down this week; in fact, it went
up. The news was generally bear
ish. The most important interest an
nouncement since the settlement of
the Irish difficulties came in the
form of resignation of President
BRAND of France. On the surface
it looked as though the militaristic
party is on at Paris and many OBJ
servers of international affairs pre-
dicted unsettlement in the markets.
Francs sold off only Is points in
New York and London and the gen.
eral lists showed steadiness followed
by an upward tendency. Out of the
apparent confusion in French polit-
ical affairs we expect a sound policy
to emerge based on cooperation with
Great Britain and Germany for the
development of Russia. This is the
real hope from the broadest stand
point of making up the terrific losses
to the conservative side of civiliZa-
ton sacrificed during the war.

WEEKLY FINANCIAL

NEW YORK, Jan. II. - Greater
easement Of money than at any corr
responding period In several years,
further heavy liquidation Of frozen
credits and indications Of business
revival were constructive features of
the week in the financial markets.
LESS encouraging aspects of the
early days of the New Year were
presented by the European situation.
It was considered noteworthy, how
eyer, that foreign exchanges with
few exceptions actually strengthened
in the face Of the French political
crisis.
The resignation of the BRAND min
istry and its implications in relation
to the arms conference, the Cannes
parleys and the proposed Genoa as
sembly were nevertheless principal
subjects of discussion and concern
among international bankers.
Stocks, other than a few special
ties, which declined to so-called "re-
ceivership prices" moved to higher
ground after several days of hesita-
ton. The bond market showed con-
sistent strength on very large out
put in which federal war issues and
seasoned rails registered highest
prices Of the past two or three years.
The very small gain in December
tonnage represented by the United
States Steel corporation caused lit
tie surprise. 1t was generally
known in trade circles that indepen-
dent producers had been operating
at less than 80 per cent Of capacity
inethe final month of 1921.
Forecasts of better business con-
ditions are based largely on author
lied statements that most industries
annual inventories involving drastic
defIations have been taken. Further
reduction of grain and cotton bills is
evidenced by lower discount and in
terest rates fixed by the Federal
Reserve Bank at Minneapolis and
Dallas.
Comparatively few new underwrit-
ings were announced and these were
chiefly in the nature Of state or
municipal offerings including a

projects are impending, but new

NEW IORk ENC7ANGE
NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Trading in
today's brief stock market was more
active, and embraced a greater vari-
ETY. of issues than at any full period
of the week. Gains of one to almost
three points were made by numerous
issues comprising the leading indus
trials and specialties, but advances
among rails were confined to a few
transcontinentals, grangers and cot
ton carriers.
From surface indications much Of
the large turnover represented Ehort
covering, but observers noted sub
stantial buying of motors and ac-
cessories as well as metals, oils,
chemicals and specialties. Among
the latter were Coca Cola and Will
son and Company. Sales, 100000
shares.
Business in bonds was in keeping
with the extensive market for shares,
but the trend in that quarter was
mixed. Liberty AVS, for example
were under further realizing, closing
at loss of 20 cents per $100. Rails
and internationals were steadier and
miscellaneous industrials also har-
dened. Total sales, par value aggre-

The better tone extended to for
eign exchanges, sterling demand bills
rising to the weeks highest quota
ton. Continental remittances were
firm, the italian rate not being af-
fected by cables announcing the sus-
pension of a bank in Palermo.
A loss of about $40,600,000 in the
actual cash account was the only
unusual items closed by the weekly
clearing house statement, reducing
excess reserves to little more than
$16,000,000.
Mercantile trade reviews were IA

CHICAGO BOARD

CHICAGO, Jan. 14.--Local shorts.
driven to cover caused a sharp rail-
ly in the last fifteen minutes of to-
days wheat market and pulled prices
back to about where a weak market
started. other grains were unusually
dull and provisions were weak. Final
prices were 7s cent lower to %c
higher in wheat, &c lower in corn,
and fractionally lower in oats, and
10 to 80 points off in provisions.
Wheat was in the doldrums
throughout most of the session. Low
er prices at Buenos Aires and Liver
pool caused some selling at the start
and with support lacking the market
sagged readily. Transactions were
neither numerous nor extensive how
ever, and the decline checked on
scattered buying at around $1.1o&
for May.
The market rested there until near
the close when 1t was rumored that
