In the Stock Market
Ia Thomson &. McKinnonl

NEW YORK. Jan 1s-with nothing in
the way of fresh developments to account
for II, the market again gained ground,
with advances fairly well distributed and
many new high records were attained.
Call money renewed at per cent and
was IN liberal supply at that figure. The
public Is apparently imbued with idea
that fundamental conditions warrant stu
higne, prices and are acting on that
theory. The more conservativeiy inclined
are turning their attention 70 the rails,
where relative. cheapness and unlimited
risk are the attraction. The brokers loan
thought, the market swinging into its
upward stride right from the opening.
We are not in accord with the popular
idea of ignoring these, figures. It is not
uEusai for experienced and conservative
bankers to waste their time issuing warn
ipgs from. this source on the dangers. of
the situation from the credit view point.
We know of no way in which available
credits can be used for two purposes
simultaneously and We see no merit in
rusting the matter lightly. 1t is our
opinion that price advances, regardless
q the credit stringency, can be but Of
short duration.
